MugiAzusa > MugiRitsu

Azusa seems to often be in awe of Mugi, both in the manga and the anime. I even highlighted as much in one of my episode impressions, and it's something that was overt in its presentation. Azusa always sees the rest of the group as a curiousity, particuarly Mugi and Yui, who often satiate that need.

But Mugi being such an affable character, these sort of things tend to come easily. And it's easy to see why these pairings are made.

Mugi does loves everyone, so much she likes to observe from the sidelines.

I've watched K-ON through about 4 times, and I'm still not sure what to make of this..

Yeah, I watched the extra episodes earlier today and it's nice that they actually show that at least instead of just leaving it open ended or something. And thanks for answering the questions I always seem to have whenever I post in this thread.
I think I'm gonna take a look at the movie later and then I guess I'm done with the series.

You'll probably love the movie. And though you may be done with the series, the series will never be done with you.

if i let my backlog stop me from buying new games, i think i would have missed a decade of gaming.
lately, i've been cheating the backlog and selling games i never completed. so far, i got rid of N64 and GBC games i didn't have finished. next in line is GBA backlog but i think i'll actually finish those games instead of selling them (for GC, i have all my games beaten except one but that one is short apparently)

i dunno if it is a coincidence but i usually like the "unpopular" girls in shows i watch or games i play.

Mugi-vision is yuri goggles. More overt in the manga, or so I'm told. I never read the manga.

The Keions should have been more yandere more often.

Dohohoho... While I've been home for Thanksgiving, I've been brainstorming ideas for the next chapter. You guys are in for a treat.

I don't know why I thought it was a good idea, but I decided to search "Mugi yuri vision" on google.

Yup, none of that is SFW.

Broke up with my gf of the last year today...it was never going to work in the long run, but that didn't make this any easier. Still feeling bummed, but just catching up with K-ON GAF is always good for a pick me up. I haven't been here long but you all have been great peeps

One and a half episodes left before my Blu-ray collection is all watched up. Now that I've completed the main anime, I loaded up the entirety of the second HTT album onto my iPhone to listen to.

Funny story: I've had this image as my iPhone wallpaper for a while now. One day my mom just decided to pick up my iPhone to check out because she wanted to see how it compared to her own phone, and she saw the wallpaper and went,

I keep going further and further down the hole, or chasm more like, that is credit card debt. Do I just go and buy the Japanese Blu-ray for the K-ON! movie or wait out a localization announcement? When's the next western anime convention expo event thingie?

I know all about that duder, I'm still cleaning up some a messy break up from 2-3 years ago. Best advice I have is to stay strong and don't turn to alcohol. I had a bad little phase drinking alone in the basement a few months ago, and it wasn't for the better. Lots of ugly text messages, and even some neoGAF posts.
Just look at the positives and remember that it's for the best. You can always talk to K-onGAF(or at least me) anytime. It's helps to have someone to listen, my problem was that I had no one to listen to me.

Sigh, it always feels like it's right around the Holidays, doesn't it? As long as you have friends to fall back on and help fill that void, all should be well. You are more than free to contact me if you ever need to, okay? Being alone for break-ups suck.

Wait; I can only imagine how much it would cost to import.

 

[Emitan]

I'm sorry to hear about that. I only dated once and it was awful so take solace in the fact you've had better relationships than me...

Also my dating pool is way smaller

Ritsu would probably be more popular if her hair was down as the default design.

Probably, she certainly is much cuter that way.

I don't know if that would help. Her primary role is Mio's sidekick and so she would always play second fiddle to Mio.

No problem. And there's always the manga that takes place after K-ON!! with the originals in college and Azusa's senior year.

You could bet money Sentai is going to get the rights for the movie. I say wait.

Then there would be two Yuis

 

[Kandrick]

Then there would be two Yuis

Also Ritsu's hair is fine like that. Dat forehead.


Also bonus Ritsu with glasses.

 

[Chet Rippo]

I've always liked the way she had her hair done for the class play. But really, I think the reason she's not as popular as the other girls has more to do with how she acts than what she looks like.
Though maybe she would have been more popular if Azusa wasn't there. If you know what I mean.

But that's why I like her so much. She's energetic, happy, funny, sarcastic, likes to tease Mio, etc. What's not to like?

[ShinoguTakeruKoeru]

Speaking of characters that viewers latch onto, for all the hype that she got, Himeko Tachibana (a.k.a. Girl Who Sits Next To Yui) didn't really get much attention after the initial memetic boom from season 2. I guess it's the nature of the thing to just keep it low-key rather than try to spin her off as some big thing just because a vocal minority out there makes some noise, huh? One example I liked was when they were counting up the votes for who'd be Romeo in the play and she got a few.

It's also her design in general I guess. Nice hair.

And of course, super kudos to KyoAni for going beyond the call of duty in designing every class member of 3-2!!

that fact makes sense.

i like my women strong and independent. no wonder which ones are my favorite characters.

i dislike most otaku tendencies. even the term is something i'd never call myself. there's a guy i know that calls himself an otaku and i just cringe each time i hear it.

Mio's doppelganger is the best classmate!

 

[Metrotab]

Western appreciation of characters seems to be more diverse than Japanese otaku, who are content celebrating the same archetype over and over again.

All based on hearsay and those polls, ofcourse.

As for background characters, I like and the girl from library (Akiyo), she even gets a more contextualized reason for her fandom,

Spoiler

running off to see the early morning concert in the movie.

She also appears briefly in their recruitment video, a fan in the shadows!

And people seemed to like Ichigo too, didn't they? The (almost) mute shtick!

Romance anime that tosses out the rulebook. I'm seriously impressed with how different this show is.

Things as

Spoiler

bro character getting his own romance

,

Spoiler

parallel romance told from girl perspective

,

Spoiler

secondary girl helping her love interest with someone else

, and lots of other things.

It's like a genuine soap series, in a two cour anime form.

Damn, I got to get on that.

Max Payne 3 + Season Pass, Dead or Alive 5, Persona 4 Arena, Dishonored, Gran Turismo 5 XL, God of War Saga

Spoiler

Sorry, Kandrick, I'm weak

, Mark of the Ninja, Music Unlimited sub for PSN+, Sleeping Dogs, K-On!! part 2 (gift), Cave Story+ (gift), and that's all I can remember at the moment. I spent so much that my card is now locked for a week, but luckily everything went through before that, hah!

How is Dishonored and Sleeping Dogs? Was thinking about either those or Borderlands 1 and 2. I never finished the first Borderlands cause I got bored but lets see whats up now.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Sawa-chan/Harem is the only option.

We all know best is Yui/Gita. No question.

I don't want Yui to die alone like a fucking hikkikomori.

YeahI kinda like her too.
Poyunch seemed to have had a appropriate gif but seemed to have deleted it... Anyways, Ichigo is kinda popular, but nowhere near as popular as Himeko. She's crazy popular for being just a background character. Probably because she's a softball player, if you know what I mean.

I haven't received Dishonored yet, but Sleeping Dogs is pretty good. It's like GTA, but fun.
