I don't see many girls like Haruka in anime. Is she one of a kind, or are there more girls like her in older shows and the archetype is outdated? Attaching her ED theme because she grew on me so much.

>I don't see many girls like Haruka in anime
May I suggest watching more anime?
Half-anglo girls are always best
Best Amagami ED for best girl.
i LOVE Haruka!
90% Shizuka Ito
Ayatsuji a best.
Look up "manic pixie dream girl". It's not a character type you see really consciously used like, say, tsundere or yandere, but it's definitely there.
Indeed.
What was up with the drink's choice?
Strange
>Ayatsuji will never make you hers
Why live?
>manic pixie dream girl
That's not what I meant by Haruka's archetype.
- older woman
- playful
- pure
- eccentric
Just to suffer
Every trait you've listed fits into that character type, with the exception of "older woman", which I would debate Haruka isn't really, since she's only a year older than Junichi.
Haruka may not have been specifically written to be a manic pixie dream girl, but she definitely has the same kind of appeal, hence why I pointed to that.
>I don't see many girls like Haruka in anime. Is she one of a kind, or are there more girls like her in older shows and the archetype is outdated? Attaching her ED theme because she grew on me so much.
That's because girls like her are out of the archetype and because of that our local weebs and native Jap otakus prefer more common and simple generic girls over girls like Haruka.
As the other user said, she does "fit" a stereotype, although it's used far less than in western stuff.
Who cares? Sex hair is better anyway.
A wonderful person with nothing to hide.
I want to watch this but a fair share of MALfags tell me it's a half-assed clusterfuck of a VN adaptation. Should I just wait for VN to get translated?
It's actually a very good adaptation of the VN. Those people don't know what they're talking about.
The VN TL isn't going to get finished too soon either, so might as well watch it.
If you end up liking it make sure to also watch the OVAs, Season 2, and the BD specials.
There's also translated drama cds for you to enjoy along with various manga adaptations.
Top Slut
Just watch it now and get out of the thread if you don't know the twist
Also
>mal
It's actually a pretty good adaptation because it shows each girl's route in an anthology rather than have them compete for his dick
Thanks, anons.
Haruka is the best
Would you lick Haruka's legs like a dog?
No. I'd rather kiss Ayatsuji's ribs.
fucking plebs, make way for the superior grill of the series
>yfw she never got a route.
Why continue living
She fits into a very common archetype called A SHIT
My wife
>The VN TL isn't going to get finished too soon either
Ye of little faith
They still have to do a quality check before releasing it and the tl progresses every couple of months.
A release by the end of the year is optimistic.
I LOVE YOU HIBIKI
Truu truu
What about Medaka in Medaka's Box and Hoshino in Hoshino Me o Tsubutte (bit more tsundere)
but she did tho
>MAL
kill yourself
...
>seiren s2 never
Fat ass
Good, S1 was terrible
I don't give a fuck I just want to see the other girls
not sure if a short scenario counts but it exist
S2 announcement any moment now guys...
>Look up "manic pixie dream girl". It's not a character type you see really consciously used like, say, tsundere or yandere, but it's definitely there.
Does it look like Haruki for you?
haruka a slut
>haha the western archetype adjusted for teenage girls doesn't match perfectly with the eastern archetype for lonely old men so the basic template can't be the same!
Shut the fuck up.
That's what happens when you make the poster girl the first arc of the entire season.
Yes, you are right. It doesn't match at all.
Fucking retard.
...
...
...
>That's right, the one I'm in love with is you!
Umehara route full speed ahead.
Nothing slutty about giving a rimjob to her husbando
I really like the president's design. Playful monotone ojou-sama. Shame she'll never get an arc especially with this yuri signalling.
...
More like top reason season 2 never amirite. No sex hair 2 4 u.
And this pic is pretty new to me.
Thanks santa
Don't give up hope user
That's one of his older ones. I ran the downloader on his pixiv page a couple of months back.
He's really improved over the years.
>yuri signailling
Wait, what.
She looks too close to the megane butch-dyke vice president thing.
Someone pls post dickbiter.jpg.
New computer can't find mine.
It's just her breaking the factory seal .
What is this dickbiter meme I keep seeing?
I just got done reading her route.
Ayatsuji is a bitch
A shittily drawn doujin.
I want to be her slave.
...
Miu=Sensei=Ai=Ayatsuji=Hibiki > Sao=Kaoru=Rihoko > Haruka > shit > Risa
Ai is olev
Sae is obviously the best.
Hmm, the only time I can really think of that archetype being very prominent is Haruhi.
Ayatsuji is so cute.
Sae is the best and you have shit taste
Miu=Sensei=Ai=Ayatsuji=Hibiki=Sao=Kaoru=Rihoko > Haruka > shit > Risa
Happy now?
What ever happened to the Amagami challenge? Did... did everyone make it?
>3dpd
You can't talk about it on Sup Forums anymore....
...because of anons like this
>text boards
Thanks moot.
Will we see a TL patch this year?
Maybe. Probably not.
>escapism
Ruise is CUTE
...
Worth it.
Guys guys guys, I thought we all agreed that all girls are best girls.
>3dpd
Before reading the VN:
Kaoru>Haruka>Ai>Tsukasa>Sae>Rihoko
After reading the VN:
Kaoru>Haruka=Sae>Tsukasa>Ai>>>Rihoko
Have these two somewhat new posters gotten scanned yet?
...
Is this bread tasty?
>Kaoru remains the one and only sex hair
She can't stop winning, can she?
It's literally mexican sweet bread, so it's good, but really nothing special.
>Sae>Tsukasa
Kill yourself.
This cancerous short hair shit ruined her.
Anime-only can't appreciate how good Sae actually is.
>not liking both short and long hair Tsukasa
Sae is the patrician choice.
Let's not get carried away here.
>MAL
>caring about the source
Good joke, user.
