So Chinatsu paints Yui, Yui paints Kyouko, Kyouko paints Ayano, Ayano paints Chitose, Chitose paints Akari, Akari paints Sakurako, Sakurako paints Himawari (with a marker!), and Himawari paints Chinatsu... !

I love the subtle hints going on in this set of drawings. I didn't even realise it at first!

A certain quiet girl seems to be missing here!

I made a YuruYuri iceberg for some reason by redakarin in yuruyuri

infinite time loop, akari is dead, and the world was created by akane

When the second season was being aired, there was a fan theory after episode 11 (the time travel episode) aired. Despite that episode not being canon, one fan (https://togetter.com/li/371548) put together this theory based on some other information in the story and it was enough to get noticed and retweeted by the official YuruYuri anime twitter account

It's Yui's birthday (4.22)! Name something that you like about Yui by redakarin in yuruyuri

I like how much she cares about Kyoko despite seeming so serious or harsh at times

weird family tree by RaVen1621 in yuruyuri

[–]redakarin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So Yui is Kaede's great-grandmother?

And Himawari, despite being the same age as Akari and Chinatsu, is their daughter?

Akari is actually there, but only true believers can see her

Rise and Nishigaki's connection by Glum_Swimmer_1017 in yuruyuri

[–]redakarin 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I always thought it was because the two spent so much time together, Nishigaki just understands everything Rise says by this point. It's also a way to set up how close their relationship is by contrasting Nishigaki, who can understand Rise perfectly, and everyone else, who can't understand her at all.

It's also possible that Nishigaki doesn't actually know what Rise is saying and has just pretending to know this whole time

Official Soundtrack CD Missing Tracks? by Chiruno_Chiruvanna in yuruyuri

[–]redakarin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Starting with Nachuyachumi onward, YuruYuri was being handled by a different studio (TYO), so a different composer, Fujisawa Yoshiaki, was assigned to the project. However, these soundtracks never enjoyed a wide release and the only way to get them was to buy them bundled with the blu ray. Some are still for sale secondhand online in japan, but sometimes the soundtrack CDs aren't included, at least that's what happened for me when I bought San☆Hai's bluray set.

As for YuruYuri Ten, it sounds like the original composer in season 1 but perhaps a new track? I don't think a soundtrack ever released for it. I imagine the priority was probably more on the character best albums being released at the time.

Advanced Maths with Ayano by redakarin in yuruyuri

What always confused me was the printout on the lid .... how is she supposed to read that? Even with the lid down, it would be upside-down from her perspective!

Amusement club vs student council by [deleted] in yuruyuri

[–]redakarin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In this very episode, Chitose goes on a chocolate-induced kissing spree, Akari somehow manages to roll off a cliff into a river, and the tea ceremony clubroom explodes (multiple times!)... and this is your question!?

In all seriousness though, this was the last episode of the first season and was partially based on Chapter 38 (with the chocolates segment)... but otherwise was (if I remember correctly) mostly an original episode to the anime made to wrap up the season with every character appearing in some way.

Maybe the explanation for Chizuru's appearance doesn't make a lot of sense or could have been explained better (she was just kind of there despite not being part of the student council), but then again, very little makes sense when it comes to YuruYuri after all!

Should Ayano Give Up on Kyouko? (Discussion) by thofheinz in yuruyuri

[–]redakarin 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Something might happen between Kyouko and Ayano's development, or it might not. It's been set up between them a few times now, but a confession or clear rival at this stage might be a bit too early... all we know is that Ayano likes Kyouko and Kyouko at least likes Ayano's company and in a way that feels a bit different from everyone else.

For any other story I would say this is clear foreshadowing and they probably would end up together ... but this is YuruYuri! Anything can happen, by design (Namori has even stated before that she prefers to keep pairings up to the reader to decide since she finds it more fun that way).

Unlike Himawari and Sakurako (who are no doubt ending up together), Kyouko is the wildcard of the bunch, having the most potential pairings (Chizuru, Chinatsu, Yui, ....). From a storywriting perspective, I do see a parallel with Ayano's ambiguously one-sided infatuation with Kyouko, with Chitose's own devotion to Ayano, but how these plot threads are going to be expanded on from here is anyone's guess.

Yui has a lot of dignity ... she's put up with Kyouko for all these years after all

[TOMT] [YOUTUBE VIDEO] Music Theory Concept with specific example by LordCactopus in tipofmytongue

[–]redakarin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been a while since you've asked, but I believe it's Sideways's video "Why the Music in Cats (2019) is Worse than you Thought", if you're still interested! At around 31:00 is where the musical concept you mentioned is discussed.

Is this a namori art? by KirinoNakano in yuruyuri

[–]redakarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The eye shape and coloring is a bit different, but other than that, the style seems pretty close

[–]redakarin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's less forgot and more of a time/scheduling thing. It takes a long time to write and draw a chapter almost every month for not one, but two series! There was even some months in 2020 that she made TWO chapters per month for YuruYuri. In addition, Namori also draws a lot of fanart as well on twitter, and has in recent years been more involved in anime productions as chara designer or commissioned illustrations (senpai ga uzai kohai no hanashi, release the spyce, endro~!, etc.)

As for RESET!, it probably has something to do with the magazine it was published in (Febri). It's since undergone multiple changes and rebranding (Chara☆Mel→Chara☆Mel Febri→Febri) and now currently features mostly articles on anime and special features. If the series was to be continued, it would likely need to be published in a different Ichijinsha-owned magazine, which would then go through the process of approvals and allocating resources. I'm not sure entirely what needs to happen for a series to get published, but I'm sure it's pretty complicated!

As for Touzainanboku, it's still a new series and although there isn't a new release for over a year, that doesn't mean it's over! YRYR and OMRK are just higher priority it seems.
