Is Amou Kirukiru the deepest character of the season?
Jayden Nelson
isn't this speech identical to pretty much every even somewhat edgy villain's speech in anime?
Kevin Collins
No? It's more like a generic shoujo love confession thing.
Jason Hernandez
>Nomura was so bright that he lit up Amou's life
Carson Hughes
>edgy You need to fucking stop. Stop calling every single thing edgy, it has no meaning at this point. How the hell is that speech edgy? It's what a semi-good, redeemable villain would say, it's the complete opposite of edgy. This sick obsession with calling things edgy must come to an end. For fucks sake, if it isn't pink and glittery you guys call it edgy trash. Stop it. Get some help.

needs more machiavelli quotes. if they were not going to go over-the-top, why even bother adapting?

She's the edgiest character of the season. Worst girl by far.

Amou is objectively the most interesting character in this show. She conflates physical strength for status, and believes combat effectiveness is the only meritocratic metric of social capital. She views Nomura as hear equal, nevertheless, she couldn't control him (this lack of control is exacerbated by her romantic feelings towards him witch hitherto are unreciprocated).
She eventually recognizes that her anger is a result of this incongruity, discussing it her closing monologue.
She realized that she had lost sight of what she originally wanted: something different, something she didn't control, something not "colored" by her. But this wasn't possible. Nomura wouldn't accept her for who she was. Amou wanted Nomura to be hers, but of course Nomura would never allow that. And Amoura knows this. She also knows it's too late to go back. The damage she's inflicted, the harm she's caused, the lives she's allegedly ended, they all prevent her from reaching "the shining light" that she lost sight of back then. In other words, she believes Nomura will never forgive her for her transgressions. The very means she's using to obtain her goal renders the goal itself moot.
Anyways, Amou Kirukiru is an incredibly interesting character. It's upsetting to realize that such an interesting character exists in such a dumb show. From a narrative standpoint, she doesn't belong here. She's a serious character in a parody show, so of course other people won't like her. She literally shows up and murders everyone's waifus. This show is, as far as I can tell, a comedy, and nothing about Amou is funny.

Give me one compelling reason why you dislike Amou Kirukiru.
Liking other girls is fine. Liking other girls more than Amou is fine. But disliking Amou is disliking the most interesting and complex character in the show.

This is a depressing story.
Why is Nomura friends with everyone BUT Amou?

Adrian Taylor
This season has a surprising amount of shallow anime "philosophy" trying to sound insightful. She's barely top three for shitty tryhards this season.
Gavin Brown
She's the best yandere in a long while, and faggots go out of their way to shit on her just because they become attached to seasonal waifu syndrome. Just objectively look at the characters first, she's interesting.

Fuck off, Onitard.

Kayden James
Some people here seem to have mistaken the series for a typical battle harem, rather than the martial arts story it actually is, and that's why they react so viscerally at Amou's behavior. This type of character (i.e. mc's former friend/rival going rogue and starting a rampage) is fairly common trope in martial arts manga, and about the only thing that's somewhat of a novelty is her doubling as a love interest. Of course people people accustomed to school battle harems and rom-coms with the occasional skirmish are gonna react befuddled when their qt waifus walk off from this with more than just minor bruises.
tl;dr : read more martial arts manga people, quit being oversensitive about nothing.
Brody Edwards
The anime is fucking terrible. Why the fuck isn't anyone translating the god damn manga? It's way better and farther along.
Benjamin Myers
Did he destroy Amou's womb with his Madan when he fought her thinking she was a dude?
Carter Kelly
He aimed much higher in the manga, and the uterus is a fairly small and well-protected organ in non-pregnant women, so I highly doubt it.
inb4 >Amou >womb
Julian Ward
Shame. I felt it would be an interesting hook that he'd mistakenly made her barren and she wanted him to take responsibility for it. Would also make her the ultimate mistress.
Oliver Baker
Nah, Amou's womb is too tough to be destroyed. She probably felt it though and despaired at the fact that she wasn't impregnated by Nomura-raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
James Young
>not being able to impregnate your mistress >a good thing This is some serious shit taste.
Carson Russell
Impregnating your mistress makes for complicated inheritance. It also pisses off the wife, since it means a split of your resources. Barren mistress is best.

No, he hit her in the chest which activated her female hormones.
Hunter Lee
God yes. I was waiting for this.
Gabriel Stewart
To be honest she's one of the few girls in the series who fit his art style.
Also, she's easier to draw since he has only to copy and paste some shuuten douji template he has left and do some modifications.
Brandon Williams
More interesting that the others swords at least. The rest are just sluts who got to see chad's dick for the first time and instantly went drooling from both mouths.
Brandon Sanchez
He might not do a doujin, that's a space reserved for either Shuten or another Granblue one, for it but we can at least be glad that there's going to at least be a fairly big chance now that they're getting a page or two for Gareki.
>More interesting that the others swords at least. You're kidding, right?

"Kiru also means "to cut". Lovely.
Logan Murphy
What the fuck? Are there actually people that like this show unironically? For fuck's sake, I just watched this to episode 11 tonight because I wanted to watch a trash anime, specifically, and I got what I came for. Put bluntly: If Ikki Tousen is the hot older sister, and Infinite Stratos is her 5/10 average younger sister, then Machiavelli is their 2/10 friend that the hot one is wingmanning for. There is nothing redeemable about this show whatsoever, let alone its unacceptable Xeroxes of "just average" characters. Take, for example, the green-haired yandere twins who must be the long-lost sisters of Mion and Shion from Higurashi. I'm fairly certain they might have even done sone tracing with her expressions in some scenes.
Honestly, Sup Forums, I'm disappointed in you.
Justin Adams
anime turned to shit when she got the focus
Connor Robinson
Also, as an addendum to this: For reasons entirely exceeding the fact that Amo is a totally shit character, this is undeniably one of the worst martial arts anime ever created. How fucking dare you put this shit into the same category as Ashita no Joe, Hajime no Ippo, Kenshin, Katanagatari and others, and then attempt to lecture people that they need to "read more martial arts manga" in order to appreciate this trash. If they actually did read any, they would realize how bad this shit is, comparatively. Even Kenichi, which is totally average, ranks way higher than this show in terms of overall quality and originality. This is not even a matter of oversensitivity, so much as simply not being a braindead fucking moron that doesn't know a damn thing about the genre and pretending online like you do.
Joseph Morris
Don't even compare Ikki tousen to this. Ikki tousen is a masterpiece in its own way.
Carter White
Like you said yourself, it's trash. It just happens to be mildly entertaining trash.
