Nukitashi the Animation Episode 11 Discussion

I have one word to say about this anime
DISAPPOINTMENT
This anime ending is more disappointment than darling in the franxx final episode
I have some scene from manga just to show , what anime has cut from Source material
they cut this mtfs in this anime

You can't stop hating this guy

Ikuko Onabuta got very low screentime in this anime, her best moment has been cut completely

Avengers assemble Moment has been cut in this anime as great climax to fight against main villain

Touka and Nanase combo has been cut

but according to Visual Novel readers anime only followed Main route not other girls route , still it looks awesome

Now those who finished the anime looking forward to read the manga , don't look at Snow secret

Now those are anime only, just look at picture to see how much this anime has missed awsome moment,

This anime is just huge disappointment in adaptation, it's like they took inspiration from Sakura wars original (not shin sakura war) anime, where they didn't bring any thing from original game, make into anime original, where the game was awesome also had great final boss

I am giving this anime, 6/10 I started watching anime because of viral 1st episode on X but I didn't expect disappointment from anime where it wasted 3 episode on Junnosuke identity Crysis because he forgot about his role and purpose on goal, where in the manga version he's awesome protagonist you can ask for.

Just read the manga to get awesome story or just play/read visual novel game but of course in uncensored version, because censored took all fun also storytelling.

@RoyalDemon05 You telling me best girl Ikuko is more fleshed out in the manga? I was planing to play the second game - since it is the only one with a Ikuko route -, but the manga has more of her?

@curvedtree
Wait, you're gonna jump straight into the second game without even playing the first one?
No way 11 anime episodes can cover what the game actually has
And the manga? It's just an adaptation of Misaki's route

Yes, because the first one doesn't have an Ikuko route, so why bother if I only like her? Besides, I don't even like VN in general, I'm playing only for Ikuko.

@curvedtree
As long as you enjoy it, that's what matters
But I should remind you, Nukitashi is really a story-driven game
If you only rely on the anime without playing the first game, you'll miss a lot of the worldbuilding and character backstories
Jumping straight into the second one will just leave you super confused

@curvedtree To be more precise, Ikuko's character is more developed on Misaki's route on the visual novel(Hence, the manga which is based on Misaki's route).

Ikuko's route on the second game is more like how Junnosuke will fall in love with Ikuko since Ikuko's personality isn't Junnosuke's type. Ikuko's role on her own route is more like what a protagonist on a galge do.



And good luck on going onto the second game immediately, as you might get confused on the most parts. Nukitashi is kinda plot-heavy, more than what you might initially think.

@30GKL How long is the first game (considering only routes that are relevant for Ikuko and what are those)?

@Tennouji So if I play just Misaki's route on the first game is it all content I will get from her?

What is a galge? I have only played one VN and it was Digimon Survive and I was in it more for the TRPG. I was mad how they forced me into a specific route in my first playthough as if my choices didn't matter, I thought what is even the point of going out of my way to achieve a specific goal and the game is like "nuh-huh... this first route you have to do what I want you to" - yes I heard before that isn't the best approach if you want to play VNs.

I'm not looking down on the plot, I just don't care, I want Ikuko's happy ending.

Can someone explain to me what path they are taking in this anime because as I see most of you are writing that it's an original story only with characters from the VN and this law, it shouldn't be a different character in the VN at each ending, so I also come to the conclusion that it's an original story for the purposes of this anime

@curvedtree

Well… if you ask me, you've got two choices:
① Just skip everything and jump straight into the second game
② Play the first one all the way through (40+ hours)

And don't foget the Improvement Patch

@curvedtree Galge = Visual novels that are mainly targeted for male audiences. My bad for using a term that you are not familiarized.

What I mean on Ikuko's role on her own route on the second game is like she is acting more of a protagonist than a heroine for the most part while Junnosuke is vice versa.


As for your very first question, if you play Misaki's route, you will get mostly Misaki and some Ikuko. Let's say 75% Misaki content and 25% Ikuko content. It is still a fact that she got a significant character development on Misaki's route while there is nothing much on her own route but at least you will spend your whole time with her.

@Tennouji Thanks for explaining what galge is.



Oh... that is an interesting perspective, but the second one is the only one you can date her, right?



So if I want Ikuko's character development, I should play the first game on Misaki's route (ps: despite me not finishing the game with her, btw it doesn't get NTR with her right? Like she gets sad if I date Misaki), because there isn't much character development on Ikuko in the second game. Is she flirty in the second game?

@curvedtree With Ikuko's personality, I totally doubt she'd get sad if she sees Junnosuke dating Misaki or another woman. Anyway, if you want to see some Ikuko's character development, you have to play Misaki's route.

And yes that you can date Ikuko on the second game, hence her actual route. She is still as flirty on the second game but of course she is much more when you are doing her route.

Overall it's a really good alternative for Nanase route.
Though Nanase route has less impactful problem compare to grand route Fumino. Especially when it turn into dystopia.
I think they show too much about the good parts from the other route that sometime it looks ridiculous, but hey, Nukitashi is all about that ridiculousness.
Also they didn't highlight Ariadne protocol and HenTai V Tec. That's too bad.

Overall series 8/10

@TRio18 The problem was the episode count, especially when they are trying to squeeze FS/SS perspective too.

But if we are talking about plot-wise, Nanase's route on the anime version feels kinda better than Nanase's route on the visual novel version. The Nanase's route anime version feels much more conclusive to me. I really hate how the visual novel treats Nanase.


Then again, there is a 50/50 chance that we are getting season 2, in order to conclude the very plot of Nukitashi.

@RoyalDemon05 You telling me best girl Ikuko is more fleshed out in the manga? I was planing to play the second game - since it is the only one with a Ikuko route -, but the manga has more of her?

@curvedtree yes,Ikuko is not only fleshed out, she's also joined hero's party , I was looking forward to see her in anime, but anime treated her like joke

Kinda disappointed in the ending. How Tachibana pursued Touka still feels vague to me. I mean, most of them are in financial difficulties, then how can you pursue them without managing an alternative solution? And why is FS still not disbanded even after the commotion they've caused?

But overall, I really had fun watching this show. I hope for a sequel.
