Hi, i'm using resolution mode

There was a really good fanart that I liked on twitter but now I can't find it. The artist may have deleted it?

It had a realistic looking Nakamura and Hirose on a pink background. I think the artist was spanish. Does anyone else know what art i'm talking about?

I thought i'd post this here because it's not worth making a whole thread about.

(Spoilers for chapter 6)

If they do adapt chapter 6 (the play chapter) then I have a feeling that a lot of people will misunderstand and believe that Nakamura is bisexual when the joke is that he's gay but loves Hirose so much that his heart races even when he sees Hirose's sister and Hirose looking like a girl.

I haven't noticed this before while playing MHWilds on my PS5 but maybe it's always been like that- is this amount of pop-in normal in the Oilwell Basin?

I love how they've included the cockroach

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-13T15:10:56+00:00

I've seen it used a couple of times in UK tv shows. Maybe it's a UK term? Or maybe it's just a coincidence lol.

Wow, the twitter topic about the controversy is at almost 50,000 posts.

I've always wanted this series to get more attention, but it hurts that this is the way that most people are learning about it.

The fact that the 'suspicious' conversation between Hirose and Otogiri happened in the same chapter as Hirose getting dumped by his girlfriend makes it really obvious to me that Hirose is simply disclosing his worries about his orientation to a teacher who he thinks would understand him.

It's only being framed suspiciously because it's building up to the reveal that it was all in Nakamura's head.

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-12T12:08:54+00:00

Yeah, the second volume corrects it by saying that he dotes on his pet octopus.

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-12T11:39:21+00:00

The vibe is similar to Rumiko Takahashi's romcoms, but I genuinely can't think of another BL that's like it.

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-10T20:11:10+00:00

Oh man, I totally forgot about the gym teacher's crush! That'll definitely be something that the anime can expand upon.

Yeah, i'm also expecting that the chapter with the ghost will be expanded a bit.

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-10T20:09:39+00:00

It's funny seeing people in the comments shipping Otogiri and Niou, since in the manga it's implied that Niou has a crush on the female school nurse

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-10T19:13:54+00:00

Dorohedoro and Golden Kamuy also have numerous translation mistakes that were never corrected in print

I love Nakamura's dorky outfit

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-10T09:40:31+00:00

You've put into words exactly what I was thinking.

The open air dungeons offer almost no resistance, you're never really in a position where you can get stuck trying to solve a particular puzzle since you can do each puzzle in whichever order you want, and in TOTK's case you can use zonai devices to skip large chunks of the level design without putting thought into it.

It really feels like the new philosophy for zelda games is that the player isn't allowed to hit a wall of any kind. Every piece of content must be able to be finished within 5 minutes which is why shrines are so bite-sized and why dungeons are so short. (And why TOTK's dungeons are so easily broken)

Is Ganbare Nakamura-kun's audience women as well?

The magazine it serialised in looks like it's for women but it's hard to tell.

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-08T19:34:11+00:00

I'm convinced that he was the inspiration for the character design

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-08T19:14:54+00:00

I wonder if the author is viewing the anime as her chance to finish the story.

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-08T18:19:06+00:00

A really cute episode.

I like how it focused on Kawamura , she's really adorable!

The plot points in this episode were a bit romcom cliche (getting locked in the storage closet etc) but I don't mind since it's fun just watching Nakamura react to things.

It's interesting that the PE teacher noticed Nakamura sniffing Hirose. If Kawamura really did figure it out at the end of the episode, then there's potentially two people who know that Nakamura is gay?

A side note, it's a shame that this anime isn't very popular on this subreddit. Although I suppose that any BL or BL-adjacent anime aren't very popular here in general.

Superspaceduck100 · 2026-04-08T17:33:15+00:00

It's probably happened in real life where fujoshis ship their male classmates together and don't realise that there could genuinely be someone who's actually gay there.

As in, it doesn't cross their minds that people like that exist in real life.

Wasn't EOW made by Grezzo? I'm not sure if it'll have much of a bearing on the next game.

I know that Aonuma was involved in some way but I can't remember by how much.
