School Days (Generic Discussion)

[S_K]

Sub forums will be needed as we are almost hitting the 1k mark when it's only past episode 3 or 4

As much as i would love that look at how the subs are 1 week behind its prob not gona happen...

Spoiler for Eps 3:

wow that was a good Eps finally saw Eps 3 Subs. Lol her little sister was so cute. Also its about time that he admits its annoying being with a girl you gotta do so much work with. Come on to many rules so now he is tired of being with her so onto the next girl YAY just like a real man would do it. Mokoto FTW

[DanielSong39]

The decision to give this show its own subforum is a no-brainer... this is the show that people either love or love to hate.

But if it doesn't get one, oh well - there are bigger atrocities in this world.

[TigerII]

Definantly a love or hae. Mainly because alot expected it to be like other dramas...come on. I knew exactly what I was getting when I started this.

Someone already made this:

School Day Game Thread (only 1 post)

http://forums.animesuki.com/showthre...ht=school+days


We can mpove the discussion of the game and how it related to the anime to it.

[Ashlotte]

Well I think if they really tried hard there could have been more fanservice in this episode...I mean sheesh I think I went a whole 5 minutes at one point without any T&A honestly...

Ah well the nice twist at the end made up for it heh. Poor sekai should inform makoto what the meaning of "High Maintenance" is before he got involved with Kotonoha.

Hopefully next episode we can budget out alittle bit of the FS to storyline instead.

Anyway, I still stand by what I've said earlier: if you put an unlikable loser in the lead role, you kill any chance for true drama, and all you get is melodrama. Drama is about complexity, all the various shades of gray in what are generally black-and-white situations, understanding character's motivations and caring about the consequences they encounter. I don't see any of that happening when the two leads (let's not forget Katsura, who is equally bland, IMO, and seemingly not much smarter than Makoto) are one-dimensional, selfish and stupid.

Sekai is coming off as pretty sympathetic. She likes Makoto but is sincerely trying to help him hook up with Kotonoha. With the ending of episode 3, I was reminded of Bokura ga Ita. Where the friend essentially was torn between staying out and going after the female lead but couldn't unless he felt he could make her happier.

I'm not denying that that there is a lot of melodrama and more to come but it could be interesting in its own way.

Well Skyfall is always on the lookout in this thread, if we do something wrong

[Skyfall]

This show getting its own subforum is within the realm of possibilities Not going to promise anything for the moment, but such a possibility is being looked in to.

I don't think "high-maintenance" is the correct word for Kotonoha, since what she wants from Makoto is fairly simple and basic if you think about it. The two of them just don't understand each other at all, and are absolutely HORRIBLE at communicating. Quite sad if you think back to what the two of them said at the end of Ep 2.

The fan service was awesome... Radish must have realized more skin = more business with their uniforms

[RahX]

^ hmm...I wonder..

For me I think that even Kotonoha doesn't know what she wants from Makoto, because he has tried to get closer to her but she always backs out and runs away. So, I can understand why Makoto said that at the end of ep.3

Spoiler for Episode 3...:

She makes a big deal out of their names, and then she ends up giving him a kiss in the cheek...that was frustrating, poor him

I hope that the show starts to revolve around Sekai more, because Kotonoha and Makoto are making this annoying and boring.

[Jaruromania]

Sekai's rather irrational "help Makoto win another girl's affection while clearly being completely in love with him herself" isn't exactly winning her points either, though. So far she's annoying me just as much as the other two with her complete denial that she likes Makoto both to herself and to others. The characters seem to be already beyond redemption after the third episode, so right now I'm just vying for even more irrationality and silly actions to build more angst and frustration so I can enjoy seeing the characters wallow in suffering (which really seems to actually be the point of the show right now).

Finally, someone who gets it. There is a difference between utter garbage and superbly crafted garbage - and this show is clearly in the latter category. It takes real talent and creativity to make characters who are so laughably pathetic.

It's one of those shows that's so bad it's good - kind of reminds me of those American evening soap operas.

if anything it should be kotonoha who thinks that makoto is the annoying one...the kissing on the cheek scene pissed me off not due to kotonoha but makoto's inital and after expression...

Spoiler:

point 1)



she told you to close your eyes NOT TO MAKE A STUPID FACE!

point 2)



WTF is up with that shocked look on your face? a beautiful girl just kissed you BE GRATEFUL!

*sigh*

[slidingk1]

Watching this is like well watching pre-teens trying to get laid. Oh wait it's called school days what you expect. I hope someone dies at the end.

[S_K]

To me this anime doesn't sound like someone will die, this anime sounds like just a happy anime, but i haven't played the game so i wouldn't know anything

[KholdStare]

Right now yeah from episodes one and two it's pretty much good; I just wished that I didn't get spoiled by certain information. I'm not sure how big of a chance this is, but I'd rather see a normal romance/drama in this series.

I don't see why this would piss you off, cause like you said:

Spoiler for What Deathkillz said:

a beautiful girl just kissed you... I'm quite sure that doesn't happen to Makoto too often..
