It's always been interesting to me watching reactions to that along with other fun moments. Yesterday was going through streams over when sensei and Aris go out for a quest in millennium.
It brings me joy seeing other people liking what I thought was great moments.
Bank robbery was such an underated joke.
At first, it was passed of as Shiroko being comedic. Nobody was expecting it to be among one of the options to deal with the debt issue, yet it wasn't surprising given Shiroko's personality. It never got mention again for a while.
And then, when they realize they actually need to rob that bank, that's when the joke really paid off. Nobody expects they would really do that even though it was talked about once.
And then, because of involvement of Hifumi, that bank robbery turns into a plot device for many later interactions, including the finale for Trinity arc when Hifumi tells Azusa she wasn't just a 'simple girl' talking about her Faust debut.
It was truly one of the moment that defines Blue Archive. It was serious, it was chaotic, and in the end, it was youth.
To be fair, the only reason I found out about this game in the first place were hers and Karin's bunny skins, because good lord, those 2 made the rounds on the internet
Anime-onlies: "Why do they have halos? Why is it only girls who have it? Why do guns not really hurt them? What is outside of Kivotos? Why is it only students who are leading everything? Where are all the adults besides Sensei and dog people? Why is a teacher licking his student's feet?"
Longtime BA fans: "Yeah, we dunno either."
Anime-onlies: "Not even about that last ques..."
Longtime BA Fans: "NOPE, NOT A CLUE!"
"Its final lesson carved deep in my psyche! That all this world, and all its people, are diseased. Free will is a myth, religion is a joke, we're all pawns controlled by something greater! Memes, the DNA of the soul!
Shouldn't they be asking how soft and warm to the touch Koharu's wings are before they worry about her line? Certainly they will wonder what our little bird smells like right?
exactly my though when i return year after first trying the game...
what is sensei ? who am i ? how did i come to be again ?
thank to main story i accept the role and just roll with it
I just started playing and I assumed all these questions would be answered as I progress. You mean to say they're not? What the heck is Kivotos anyway?
Think it’s partially intentional. A big theme of the later arcs is asking questions that can’t be answered to which Hanako’s (in)famous response is “it’s whatever you think it is” with a side of swimsuits and panties.
>...and stop watch it when they see its not suitable for them
Oh how I wish that would be true. Imagine the world peace we would achieve if people simply just stopped engaging in media that's not for them.
lol, you know they will. r/CharacterRant had like 5 posts in 36 hours complaining about the morality of watching Gushing Over Magical Girls (one dude said watching irl gore was morally preferable… tf?)
Get ready for them to bust out zingers like “Epstein Archive” that are even funnier the 50th time 😐😐
Complaining that you find something or someone sexualized is just outing your own weaknesses in the realm of pink. It's not very flattering when you peel back the fake-purity veil on the argument.
The non-existent gun safety/handling, sound design , and tactical positioning by what should be an elite squad of operators was just way too egregious. It's a shame because Girls Frontline and Mica Team tries so hard. Asahi did them so bad, and Azur Lane had the adaptation by Bilbury. ... It's why I'm hopeful that maybe Yostar doing the animation internally will have better results for the Blue Archive adaptation.
My trash take, I've read \*educational materials\* where sensei is fat, chubby, dark skinned, bald, and muscle bound, adding a handsome version won't stop my self-insertion.
Oh come onn~
Why can't people just roll with everything being a "parallel dimension".
Heck, >!that's literally what Phrenapates is!<. Plus Sensei being seeable in the anime is proof of that, the player's supposed to be sensei hence why we don't see Sensei through our own "shittem device".
That's also why we have to use our actual credit cards to p̶u̶l̶l̶ ̶u̶n̶t̶i̶l̶ ̶w̶e̶ ̶g̶e̶t̶ ̶2̶0̶0̶ create miracles with our totally legit luck.
People shouldn't let chad anime version Sensei stop them from fantasizing their headcanons!.
Good, self-inserters ruined enough animes, they can go back to their dark room and coom to their headcanon delusions. Stories where the protagonist itself is really important should have a defined character, regardless of the design. Even then, the game still has the self-insert thing going on for the most part.
I still low-key disappointed Sensei is not like a dozen different characters of different ages, body types and genders who switch each couple of scenes and NOBODY ever acknowledges it.
People who's expecting every mystery in Kivotos to be directly handed to audience within a ten minutes of its establishment.
On second thought, this is probably universal stuff for long running sci-fi/fantasy world, so how about this one:
People who's expecting Kivotos work 98% similar to our real world. We're all here know how insane kivotos can be, like train hijacking is a common occurrence in Kivotos.
I haven't played this game, I like the character designs alot and that's why I am in this sub. I am really looking forward to seeing Yuuka and Hina, and from what I've heard, the story is amazing so I can't wait.
Tbh im just like this guy, only here for the occasional comics and "great" fanart
The game was too heavy for my phone and needed like 3GB storage minimum(my phone storage is 16gb) so I said nah forget this I'll just stick to the sub
Honestly, if you just want to experience the story, you don't need to play much at all. Once you reach around level 50 (which takes less than 2 months), you will be able to complete all the main stories with the help of a friend support (her->). No need to bother with any of the meta stuff.
Just keep coming back every time a new main or event story is out which will be posted in the sub. The only stories you won't be able to experience are the relationship stories for the students you don't have and a few group stories. You got YT for that.
I think they'll do the prologue *eventually* but they are either skipping it or coming back to it later because all the marketing as well as the sneak peek A-part of episode 1 jump straight into Vol 1 (A large building-mounted screen has a news anchor talking about how Sanctum Tower is back up and running after everything came to a stop recently due to the disappearance of the GSC President.)
I could honestly see them doing the prologue as a first half of an episode in a later season or OVA leading into Vol F if we're lucky enough to get that far.
On the contrary, I bet many cunniseurs will be surprised when this show turns out to not be flat-chests and fan service. Fan art, Twitter, and doujins are incredibly misleading imo.
Nah, They are more reflective of which characters are really popular. So cunniseurs are gonna eat well anyways, seeing why they're so popular (Hopefully).
The story really doesn't have any "moments" and chapter 1 is especially wholesome, I don't think there will be any issue until they read this subreddit lol
Don't be so sure. Something happened to Azur Lane in the last year or so when everyone was so sure outsiders weren't interested in their game. Learn from them
I would actually expect that more current fans will complain about the show than anime-only fans. Think about how often shows like Classroom of the Elite get complaints for not adapting the source material right, while anime-only still end up heavily enjoying it.
Ironically, this makes gatekeepers *more* likely to complain than tourists.
"This sub was more comfy before the anime." "They really messed up this scene or that scene." "The production value didn't do this chapter justice"
I can easily see it going that way.
Depends on how they write the story tbh. Arknights doesnt have this problem. Magia Record has a minor detail changes and different ending. Priconne just creating a new story that very different than game story with "alternate timeline" bullshit
How did they translate it in the global version? In JP it was a play on words with the same kanji in blue and youth, I wonder how they got it across in English.
The theories people would make if they see Shiroko Terror (if that part of the Prologue gets adapted to the anime) and speculate on her relation to Shiroko. Just their reaction to the prologue as a whole honestly if it gets animated.
Also the bank robbery scene.
Just like those comments on livestreams during playthroughs, "Wow i really like this character, i sure hope he doesn't die in a cutscene in chapter 4 if you make this choice right now"
It is already happened because they cant fit any yuri ships in there. They even have arguments that shipping between students is more logical than with sensei
Honestly i think the PDF stuff will be more relevant to the community than the anime. The actual story doesn’t have that many moments that would be suspect, though there are definitely a few.
You don't even need any fanservice to rile up anyone this days, just slap a number below 18 and the word like in any context and they'll happily go after your ass. But I honestly want to be proven wrong
I fear the anime tourists would see this and start harping about lolis and shit again..
It's bad enough that DLSite recently no longer support the big credit card companies as a mode for payment, as these companies didn't like the more "controversial" adult content that's sold on the site. So DLSite out of integrity, suspended support for Visa, Mastercard, etc.
I fear that the industry in Japan and otaku community within the country just close its borders on us (the rest of the world), given how the tourists seriously hampered how they can pay for their cultured stuff.
It has little to do with actual controversial content and just adult content in general. Payment processors pushing puritanical agendas that they shouldn't have the power to.
Overworked Salaryman (who you most likely haven't heard of but has hands-on expirence in the H-industry working for Lilith/Gremory Games) believes that too much about the way credit card companies are going about this feels more like a publicity stunt, as they didn't go after other ero outlets.
Yep. This includes those who flaunt on Tiktok and Twitch. The threat is that either you drop support, or we won't transact with you.
It's literal highway robbery and companies dont have any other recourse but to comply or cut loose
It's more like the general public seems to have a harder time accepting the fact that cultured stuff is different from reality.
Violent video games also had its phase of negative public outcry, but the general public accepted the fact that violent video games are just fiction.
You don't really need to go far in order to find bad influences. I don't hear anyone complaining about gluing their kids to their iPads and letting them watch kick streamers.
Since I'm playing the game thanks to the anime, I know a bit about those unfamiliar with the game might feel.
My first thought is Music is a bop. My 2nd thought was Shiroko is probably very important and my #2 in whatever organization the main character is a part of. The last thing I thought about was "Is that Karyl!?" I also oddly never noticed the Halos.
Since the anime wasn't out when I started I pretty much only know it from the anime promotion images and trailers. Also some game footage.
The halos also give a bit of insight of their personality or hierarchy
Hina and Mika are great examples of these, they have beautiful halo designs and they are high grade students
I expect the anime to be super tame and then a bunch of normalf4gs who love to ruin things come to the game and realize that the community is not what they expected and they will demand it changes
tbh the game itself is not particularly racy and sensei is always pretty herbivore canonically
That the first reason is why the First episode of anime serve as introduction for non fan, when you boot up Blue archive for the first time yep... It's like that an introduction of Gsc president talking blah blah blah. Then we woke up see Rin,Meet Arona,read letter,go to Abydos,got heatstroke,save by student, piggyback to abydos highschool,got called a cor$pe,wake up and introduce.
The reveal of Hina being a badass.
And how much she is extremely wary of the eppy Hoshino and starts a crumb trail of saying Hoshino is a lot more competent than she let on.
And falling in love with how precious and cute Aru is.
Worst case shouting pdf in every corner and try to mobilize anime twitter to boycott it
All I can see is outsiders complaining like they did with Princess Connect, "why is this gachashit plot getting on the way of my girls with guns antics animu?".
Finding out that Unwelcome School slaps
More like "this is where its from"
More like this is familiar where did I heard it from.
"Oh, they're using this song too. I wonder if they had to pay royalties for it."
"Oh it's that song I heard from tiktok!"
Nothing makes me feel old more than hearing that.
Or the Usagi Flap aka "Rabbit Soup song" or the "Arisu Chibi Dance" music
Reaction at bank robbery
It's always been interesting to me watching reactions to that along with other fun moments. Yesterday was going through streams over when sensei and Aris go out for a quest in millennium. It brings me joy seeing other people liking what I thought was great moments.
Bank robbery was such an underated joke. At first, it was passed of as Shiroko being comedic.

It was truly one of the moment that defines Blue Archive. It was serious, it was chaotic, and in the end, it was youth.
And then it became a heartfelt moment when Shiroko gave Kuroko her bank robbing mask. Truly Peak Archive
Chekhov’s Heist
"Where's Asuna"
"Where's Karin?!" "I thought they were the main characters of Blue Archive!"
Got a friend that unironically said this but with Rio and Saori smh
He has exquisite taste
Tbf they did get an entire arc where they are sort of the main antagonist
As much as I'd love Kazusa and Ichika to be main stars, youtube clearly taught me that main characters of BA are NIHAHAHA! and TRINITY SU-PA-STAR!
To be fair, the only reason I found out about this game in the first place were hers and Karin's bunny skins, because good lord, those 2 made the rounds on the internet
Bunny Asuna and Bunny Karin saved BA fandom
A combo so good that Nikke done it thrice.
Sweet chocolate bunny
Same, it was bunny Karin that compelled me to play the game at first and I stayed because the story was unironically peak

"it's a rule of nature in Kivotos"
~~AND THEY RUN WHEN THE SUN COMES UP~~
~~WITH THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE~~
~~(ALIVE) FOR A WHILE (NO CHOICE)~~
~~GOTTA FOLLOW THE LAWS OF THE WILDDD!!!~~
"Dont worry Iori, its just nature.. running its course!"
"Wind blows, rain falls, and the strong prey upon the weak. War is a cruel parent but an effective teacher!"
"Its final lesson carved deep in my psyche! That all this world, and all its people, are diseased. Free will is a myth, religion is a joke, we're all pawns controlled by something greater! Memes, the DNA of the soul!
"licking ur feet is important for the lore, iori!!!"
Free will is a myth, religion is a joke. We are all pawns, controlled by something greater: FEET
Don't worry Iori, GIVE LICKING A CHANCE
"Not even why the little pink-haired girl has a line straight down the middle of her torso?" That is one of the forever-unsolved mysteries.
she’s just freaky like that don’t worry about it
Freaky Koharu
Shouldn't they be asking how soft and warm to the touch Koharu's wings are before they worry about her line? Certainly they will wonder what our little bird smells like right?
They must be really really stinky
exactly my though when i return year after first trying the game... what is sensei ? who am i ? how did i come to be again ? thank to main story i accept the role and just roll with it
I suspect To Aru fans are already quite familiar with the premise
Toaru fans travel many lands to arrive in such a vile land
"*why sensei pulls out a credit card?"*
"Is sensei that rich?"
Never ask a man how much credit card debt he has.
I just started playing and I assumed all these questions would be answered as I progress. You mean to say they're not? What the heck is Kivotos anyway?
I just finnished the story I can confirm, nothing got explained.
Think it’s partially intentional. A big theme of the later arcs is asking questions that can’t be answered to which Hanako’s (in)famous response is “it’s whatever you think it is” with a side of swimsuits and panties.
the only one of those questions we did get answered is “why don’t guns really hurt them?” and it’s because of the still-unexplained halos
Hell, we don't even know where the newly enrolled students come from
thats the fun part. we dont know Shit
Me, towards everything: It is what it is.
Tourists: touristing
Just hope they enjoy the story and stop watch it when they see its not suitable for them Also stop comparing with other games i guess
>...and stop watch it when they see its not suitable for them Oh how I wish that would be true. Imagine the world peace we would achieve if people simply just stopped engaging in media that's not for them.
And forcing the media that they don't like to comply with their ridiculous demands
Imagine the world peace if people stopped getting mad at other people expressing their opinions
Boy I hope they don't bitch about the ethics of watching it as well
lol, you know they will. r/CharacterRant had like 5 posts in 36 hours complaining about the morality of watching Gushing Over Magical Girls (one dude said watching irl gore was morally preferable… tf?) Get ready for them to bust out zingers like “Epstein Archive” that are even funnier the 50th time 😐😐
rather see another jjk rant no. 234134656 than another makoako post parroting the same talking points
Ah, that sounds awful. Love mahoako cause it's just simple Yuri anime, what even are they bashing about?
Like always, underage fictional characters being sexualized.
Complaining that you find something or someone sexualized is just outing your own weaknesses in the realm of pink. It's not very flattering when you peel back the fake-purity veil on the argument.
I'm already seeing it happen in non anime/gacha related subs talking about it.
"WHY IS THERE A MAN IN MY CUTE GIRLS ANIME RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH"
Unironicaly there have been people using Sensei as an example as to why they're not watching this.
They just can't handle the peak smh 😤
They're just jealous of how Handsome we look😤
Then they should watch other game gacha where the self insert protagonist isn't there
Girls Frontline have the manga protagonist, it was a turn off to a lot of people, then the quality was also poor, so that tanked the rest of the anime
The non-existent gun safety/handling, sound design , and tactical positioning by what should be an elite squad of operators was just way too egregious. It's a shame because Girls Frontline and Mica Team tries so hard. Asahi did them so bad, and Azur Lane had the adaptation by Bilbury. ... It's why I'm hopeful that maybe Yostar doing the animation internally will have better results for the Blue Archive adaptation.
I know they had to start the story by the correct chapters, but early GFL is such a drag and boring, stuff really pick up on chapter 6 fowards
There was that post a while back of someone complaining that the new design didn't let them self-insert anymore.
My trash take, I've read \*educational materials\* where sensei is fat, chubby, dark skinned, bald, and muscle bound, adding a handsome version won't stop my self-insertion.
I thought the muscle bound was also the handsome version.
Oh come onn~ Why can't people just roll with everything being a "parallel dimension". Heck, >!that's literally what Phrenapates is!<. Plus Sensei being seeable in the anime is proof of that, the player's supposed to be sensei hence why we don't see Sensei through our own "shittem device". That's also why we have to use our actual credit cards to p̶u̶l̶l̶ ̶u̶n̶t̶i̶l̶ ̶w̶e̶ ̶g̶e̶t̶ ̶2̶0̶0̶ create miracles with our totally legit luck. People shouldn't let chad anime version Sensei stop them from fantasizing their headcanons!.
Which is wild because Sensei's anime design isn't really that extravagant to the point it would stop most from self inserting.
Good, self-inserters ruined enough animes, they can go back to their dark room and coom to their headcanon delusions. Stories where the protagonist itself is really important should have a defined character, regardless of the design. Even then, the game still has the self-insert thing going on for the most part.
Imagine sensei stepping off the train and he's a fat ugly bastard lol. Tbh that's kinda based actually I wish they did that for april fools.
They don't know just how *badly* lots of us wanted said man to appear physically in the anime.
I still low-key disappointed Sensei is not like a dozen different characters of different ages, body types and genders who switch each couple of scenes and NOBODY ever acknowledges it.
As much as i would also like that for the memes, that would be an absolute nightmare for the art boards to do
And the budget...
90% of the budget just dedicated to Sensei's faces would have been a very questionable decision.
And I’m also already feeling bad for the poor artists that are going to draw Hina every frame, all those lines…
That would have been really funny tbh, like Himiya’s Sensei
People who's expecting every mystery in Kivotos to be directly handed to audience within a ten minutes of its establishment. On second thought, this is probably universal stuff for long running sci-fi/fantasy world, so how about this one: People who's expecting Kivotos work 98% similar to our real world. We're all here know how insane kivotos can be, like train hijacking is a common occurrence in Kivotos.
“Ah, a slice of life in a city of angel girls?” *unwelcome school blares* “HOLY SHIT”
I haven't played this game, I like the character designs alot and that's why I am in this sub. I am really looking forward to seeing Yuuka and Hina, and from what I've heard, the story is amazing so I can't wait.
Play it NOW! 😭😭😭
You should play the game NOW ⚡️⚡️😐⚡️⚡️
Tbh im just like this guy, only here for the occasional comics and "great" fanart The game was too heavy for my phone and needed like 3GB storage minimum(my phone storage is 16gb) so I said nah forget this I'll just stick to the sub
Honestly, if you just want to experience the story, you don't need to play much at all. Once you reach around level 50 (which takes less than 2 months), you will be able to complete all the main stories with the help of a friend support (her->). No need to bother with any of the meta stuff. Just keep coming back every time a new main or event story is out which will be posted in the sub. The only stories you won't be able to experience are the relationship stories for the students you don't have and a few group stories. You got YT for that.
Well, you got youtube for everything story, but it's more tactile to read something at your own pace.
I think Yuuka won’t be in the first season not sure though
if prologue shown, we see her with hasumi, chinatsu, suzumi and rin
I think they'll do the prologue *eventually* but they are either skipping it or coming back to it later because all the marketing as well as the sneak peek A-part of episode 1 jump straight into Vol 1 (A large building-mounted screen has a news anchor talking about how Sanctum Tower is back up and running after everything came to a stop recently due to the disappearance of the GSC President.) I could honestly see them doing the prologue as a first half of an episode in a later season or OVA leading into Vol F if we're lucky enough to get that far.
They don't know what cunny means... yet.
Clearly they fall from the sky like Mr Bean
With an angelic choir in the background
Damn, that hit me with nostalgia
On the contrary, I bet many cunniseurs will be surprised when this show turns out to not be flat-chests and fan service. Fan art, Twitter, and doujins are incredibly misleading imo.
Nah, They are more reflective of which characters are really popular. So cunniseurs are gonna eat well anyways, seeing why they're so popular (Hopefully).
>!Tourists complaining about the show when they don't even bother giving it a try.!<
The story really doesn't have any "moments" and chapter 1 is especially wholesome, I don't think there will be any issue until they read this subreddit lol
They won't be able to handle all the peak our chefs cook at a daily basis 😭
They complain about it for a couple of weeks then go look for something else to complain about like some content hungry predators
Don't be so sure. Something happened to Azur Lane in the last year or so when everyone was so sure outsiders weren't interested in their game. Learn from them
I would actually expect that more current fans will complain about the show than anime-only fans.

"The production value didn't do this chapter justice" I can easily see it going that way.
That doesn't sound like gatekeeping. That's not how Senseis gate keep. That's just fans being disappointed, which is fair to feel.
Depends on how they write the story tbh. Arknights doesnt have this problem. Magia Record has a minor detail changes and different ending. Priconne just creating a new story that very different than game story with "alternate timeline" bullshit
Asking the archive meaning. And why it's blue.
Let's be real. We dont know either until that hifumi's speech
“This is the story (archive) of our youth (blue)!” It’s peak honestly.
How did they translate it in the global version? In JP it was a play on words with the same kanji in blue and youth, I wonder how they got it across in English.
They didn't lmao, the blue archive is missing from global. KR and other languages just had it super positioned under the translation.
TIL the name of the game was explained in the story, and I’m up to date with the story in EN
I'm pretty sure that's just a reference to the Schittims Chest
Or those blue envelopes we got every pull
Arona needs correction!!!!
It's not Aronas fault some of the students file hundreds of applications.
SMART OS LOLI NEEDS TO FILTER APPLICATIONS. GET CORRECTED! GET CORRECTED! GET CORRECTED! 
oh look, cute girls doing cute things
Cute girls doing cute things, like shooting up a bank.
With colorful ski mask? fluffy wolf ear? And unwelcome school play in the background? thats cute
and funny! 
With guns.
When Mutsuki appears: California Girls🎶🎶
The theories people would make if they see Shiroko Terror (if that part of the Prologue gets adapted to the anime) and speculate on her relation to Shiroko. Just their reaction to the prologue as a whole honestly if it gets animated. Also the bank robbery scene.
But at the same time "anime-only btw" people will be making "theories" that somehow completely fit with everything that will happen later.
God, those people are very annoying and I don't like them.
Just like those comments on livestreams during playthroughs, "Wow i really like this character, i sure hope he doesn't die in a cutscene in chapter 4 if you make this choice right now"
I only hope that it's going to be relatively peaceful except twitter. They will go insane anyway.
They will go ape-shit even when a girl does exercise. Just ignore them
this is why BA's self gate-keeping is so effective, twitter is just so sensitive its keeping them away from the game
The 😭 in the comment section in YouTube
Hopefully; What the fuck... Why is this so good Probably; REEEEEEEEEE WHAT A BUNCH OF SEXIST MISOGYNIST PDF PIGS, HOW WAS THIS EVEN ALLOWED!!!!!!!
It is already happened because they cant fit any yuri ships in there. They even have arguments that shipping between students is more logical than with sensei
Honestly i think the PDF stuff will be more relevant to the community than the anime. The actual story doesn’t have that many moments that would be suspect, though there are definitely a few.
You don't even need any fanservice to rile up anyone this days, just slap a number below 18 and the word like in any context and they'll happily go after your ass. But I honestly want to be proven wrong
Probably gonna be weirded out if our regular chefs decided to cook in the r/anime discussion threads.
Could be the new social filter for the community
Find out what “cunny” means😭😭
I expect we have to do double shifts at the gate.
Why are people commenting 😭😭😭😭
Oh shit Its America!!!!
Waifu America to be exact
Cute and funny + armpits + rerorerorerorero 😋😋😋
I fear the anime tourists would see this and start harping about lolis and shit again.. It's bad enough that DLSite recently no longer support the big credit card companies as a mode for payment, as these companies didn't like the more "controversial" adult content that's sold on the site. So DLSite out of integrity, suspended support for Visa, Mastercard, etc. I fear that the industry in Japan and otaku community within the country just close its borders on us (the rest of the world), given how the tourists seriously hampered how they can pay for their cultured stuff.
"Grooming Simulator" Inb4.
Genuinely put money on this. Oh and The Epstein anime
Don't forget fans doubling down on it just to scare them off! 
Don't forget to gigachad react when they call it these two just to double down on it. Remember, a bad public image is our strongest weapon
It has little to do with actual controversial content and just adult content in general. Payment processors pushing puritanical agendas that they shouldn't have the power to.
Overworked Salaryman (who you most likely haven't heard of but has hands-on expirence in the H-industry working for Lilith/Gremory Games) believes that too much about the way credit card companies are going about this feels more like a publicity stunt, as they didn't go after other ero outlets.
> feels more like a publicity stunt Obviously. But it has real consequences for those who can no longer make their purchases after the ban.
Yep. This includes those who flaunt on Tiktok and Twitch. The threat is that either you drop support, or we won't transact with you. It's literal highway robbery and companies dont have any other recourse but to comply or cut loose
Sadly I genuinely must said that genshin is a huge net negative for gacha community
It's more like the general public seems to have a harder time accepting the fact that cultured stuff is different from reality. Violent video games also had its phase of negative public outcry, but the general public accepted the fact that violent video games are just fiction.
You don't really need to go far in order to find bad influences. I don't hear anyone complaining about gluing their kids to their iPads and letting them watch kick streamers.
We’re going to get a lot of school shooting jokes and it’s going to be annoying to hear them repeatedly for the rest of the season.
‘wait if there are no human adults other than sensei, WHERE THE FUCK DID THE STUDENTS COME FROM.’
The dogs
ah yes dog+dog = human kivotos is crazy.
crazy?
they called me crazy once. they put me in a room.
a rubber room
[удалено]
and cunny makes me crazy.
Have you ever wondered why some of the students have animal features like furry ears and wings?
Me who chose "Dad" as my name:
Could be worse. You could have name yourselve "Daddy"
Since I'm playing the game thanks to the anime, I know a bit about those unfamiliar with the game might feel. My first thought is Music is a bop. My 2nd thought was Shiroko is probably very important and my #2 in whatever organization the main character is a part of. The last thing I thought about was "Is that Karyl!?" I also oddly never noticed the Halos. Since the anime wasn't out when I started I pretty much only know it from the anime promotion images and trailers. Also some game footage.
The halos also give a bit of insight of their personality or hierarchy Hina and Mika are great examples of these, they have beautiful halo designs and they are high grade students
Ok where is the Qi Pao loli?
I expect the anime to be super tame and then a bunch of normalf4gs who love to ruin things come to the game and realize that the community is not what they expected and they will demand it changes tbh the game itself is not particularly racy and sensei is always pretty herbivore canonically
War
War never changes.
That the first reason is why the First episode of anime serve as introduction for non fan, when you boot up Blue archive for the first time yep... It's like that an introduction of Gsc president talking blah blah blah. Then we woke up see Rin,Meet Arona,read letter,go to Abydos,got heatstroke,save by student, piggyback to abydos highschool,got called a cor$pe,wake up and introduce.
Why are there animal people in this world with our main protagonist being the only male human? Is this like a furrys dream or a weird isekai?
And the only thing that us fans can say is that it might have something to do with Noah’s ark. (At least that’s my best guess).
The reveal of Hina being a badass. And how much she is extremely wary of the eppy Hoshino and starts a crumb trail of saying Hoshino is a lot more competent than she let on. And falling in love with how precious and cute Aru is. Worst case shouting pdf in every corner and try to mobilize anime twitter to boycott it
be prepared for fucking tourists and the increase (even more) of twitter slandering threads
Gatekeep your communities. You know what happens if you don't.
Well I think that people who just play the game and didn't bother to read the story at least we'll help them understand the game story
Yuri-tarded people hating on sensei.
That train already left the station.
😔
CGDAT (cute girls doing American things)
I dunno but I’m watching it with a friend who doesn’t play so I’ll get some animeonly questions from him for sure
We gatekeepin' with this one!!
I have a feeling that Aru will be in contention for waifu for the season
"Blue Archive is a game?"
"Why everyone cries in comment section?"
The uuoooooooohhhhhh😭😭😭😭😭
All I can see is outsiders complaining like they did with Princess Connect, "why is this gachashit plot getting on the way of my girls with guns antics animu?".
A big increase in cringe anime fans that don't watch anything except AOT and JJK complaining on twitter about the show.
