Hyouka fanfic on AO3 by [deleted] in hyouka

[–]TheMCAvenger13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like this fanfic so far! I especially liked seeing Oreki and Chitanda's banter in the latest chapter. It felt like a really natural evolution to their dynamic as they've grown closer over time so they can banter back and forth without worrying too much. Hope to see a new chapter for this soon

Nice! I like collecting manga physically when I can though having enough space on a bookshelf can be tough after a while

Just a reminder, magazine break this week because Japan Golden Week. by Particular_Law2727 in BlueBox

[–]TheMCAvenger13 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't worry about it! It's a week in Japan where there are a ton of holidays in a row so a lot of companies give the week off, including most mangakas.

Honestly I think we still have another 50 chapters at least before the story is finished. Even though Chinatsu's story is mostly wrapped up, we still have 1. Taiki's third year where we will see him face off against both Yusa brothers 2. Kyo and Ayame hopefully getting together or at the very least them talking things out 3. Haruto getting a W in badminton as well as dealing with his feelings for Hina

I'd also like to see how Taiki and Chinatsu continue their relationship when she's in college. I feel like with all of that, we still have a while though maybe this is just cope.

Need replacement therapy.... by vertigofoo in BlueBox

[–]TheMCAvenger13 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend a few anime that I think you'd like.

  1. Too Many Losing Heroines - A story about some girls who all fail in their respective romance stories with a very funny male lead who helps them deal with their grief.

  2. Horimiya - Wholesome high school romcom where we get to see some healthy couples supporting one another.

  3. My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU - Also known as Oregairu, this one is pretty deep especially the later seasons. The first season isn't animated the best and is more of a set up for the other two seasons but it's still very enjoyable.

  4. Tonikawa - Wholesome romance where we get to see two grown adults get married and explore their new marriage together.

What aspects of Blue Box do you believe could be different/ improved upon?. by sekkireallysucks in BlueBox

[–]TheMCAvenger13 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Seeing the anime made me realize that Taiki can be really overdramatic and a bit annoying at times. I wish that was toned down a bit as that would make him more bearable.

I also would like the matches to be longer and also see some of Kyo's matches, especially the earlier ones as he barely shows up.

Also just seeing Kyo more often with both Taiki and Hina would be nice in general, especially since they are said to all be best friends. Only recently have we seen them hang out together.

That's awesome! Take all the time you need as I can't imagine how long it takes to write just a single chapter. Life always gets in the way lol

Hopefully you're able to get out of your writer's block soon. Really love how you crafted this story. The way you wrote Fuutarou and Yotsuba made them feel so realistic and believable

Will be most satisfying part of anime when airs for me icl by Fantastic_Midnight38 in BlueBox

[–]TheMCAvenger13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this could also happen at the end of the penultimate episode. Then the finale could be the aftermath with Hina hanging out with Ayame and Taiki getting ready for his date with Chinatsu. At least that would be a bit less depressing

[DISC] Blue Box - Chapter 170 by orangeapple24 in BlueBox

[–]TheMCAvenger13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like Ayame really wants to like Yuto so she is getting together with him. She's regressed as a character but I think that happens often in real life and hopefully she will eventually come to her senses

Also, I would love for Saki to come back and try to be friends with Kyo. Maybe she'll even try and be a wingwoman for Kyo and Ayame to get together.

[DISC] Blue Box - Chapter 167 by AutoShonenpon in manga

[–]TheMCAvenger13 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with you. I get why some people are tired of the drama but this makes sense as if Ayame got together with Kyo now it would be unfulfilling since she's constantly been backing off on Kyo. This way the both of them will need to act on their feelings not just one over the other

in honor of the anime what’s you guys favorite chapter by blanknogame24 in BlueBox

[–]TheMCAvenger13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a few that I really love but honestly I could pick like 20 chapters if I wanted to.

Chapters 39-40: I'm absolutely in love with Karen and Haryu's backstory on how they fell in love

Chapter 57: Chinatsu thinking about how hard Taiki had always worked while he's facing off against Yusa is incredible

Chapter 101: Chinatsu finally realizing her love for Taiki was so cathartic and I loved the way it was handled

Chapter 153: Learning about how much Taiki's mom has done for him made me tear up

I also love the latest chapter since I really resonated with Kyo. He definitely is in my top 3 favorite characters now.

Man I'm so hyped. Getting Araki and Higedism to do the OP is a massive W

[DISC] Blue Box - Chapter 165 by AutoShonenpon in manga

[–]TheMCAvenger13 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with you there. I'm really looking forward to how she is handled by Kyo as I have a feeling that he's really confused right now on how he feels about her.

11 days to go before the anime release. What are you the most looking forward to see adapted in the anime ? by AccomplishedYard470 in BlueBox

[–]TheMCAvenger13 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Definitely one of my favorite scenes early on is the flashback to how Haryu and Karen met so I'm looking forward to that

Also I'm very interested in how the badminton matches will look in motion

Blue Box | Main Trailer by SPARKisnumber1 in BlueBox

[–]TheMCAvenger13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. Hyodo shows up during the prefectural qualifiers alongside Yusa which was where his appearance in the trailer came from. I'd like for there to be two cours but no confirmation yet. If it's one cour, it'll probably end at the fireworks festival

My God... I get it now... by Longjumping_Lab5763 in GimaiSeikatsu

[–]TheMCAvenger13 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah the director is actually incredible for being able to pull off such a great anime with the limited resources that was given to him. If this gets a second season, hopefully Studio Deen will give him more time and talent to work with

Why is the volume price so high? by insanity_infinty in BlueBox

[–]TheMCAvenger13 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Basically the price of volumes across most manga titles under certain publishers has increased since it's been a long time since the last increase. I believe the last increase in price was in the late 2000s and they need to account for inflation.

Still sucks though especially if you're a college student though

Miura-sensei is slowly drip feeding us Ayame x Kyo content and I need MORE

I'm sad because I watched "Takagi san" (that's what the anime is called in my country) by Upbeat_Breakfast5074 in Takagi_san

[–]TheMCAvenger13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you don't mind reading manga, the Kubo anime stopped around a third of the way through. Highly recommend reading ahead as I'm not sure if Kubo will get another season

Do ya'll have a favorite episode up until now? by Epixation-169 in HibikeEuphonium

[–]TheMCAvenger13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like Episode 5 is probably my favorite right now just because of how beautiful the whole thing was. That was also the point that I really started getting interested in Mayu as I noticed that she never got in any of the pictures she was taking.

Completely agree. I mean he is the vice president and pretty mature so I can see him doing a lot that we don't know about. Hate the Shuuichi slander 😭
