I liked Mashiro and all the characters for the most part. maybe but I shouldn't have to read the spinoff manga to tell you she isn't boring. Anime should've found a way to incorporate that in or at least show us otherwise but they apparently failed at that. you know... and that whole part about being saved from a minotaur that would have otherwise killed him. | ||

Majority of the time the girls will either develop a thing for the MC but stay on the side or it's a quiet kind of like instead of the official harem crazy. Harem anime is just an anime that the focus is the harem where as anime with harem elements it isn't the focus. They still have the same rules imo. | ||

Ryu is pretty stand alone and has sufficient background to not be tied to Bell for "harem's sake". Plus her bestie is Syr, and we all know Syr is the only real contender to Aiz (next to Eina). Also Syr has done a lot for Bell. She made him bentos, confessed her love, AND gave him FIRE-BOLTO. As of this season of the animu, no, there's really nothing that shows Ryuu is interested in Bell. If anything, she acts in a way where she is trying to set up Syr with Bell since all the meidos in cahoots. Hahaha, seems like you really like Syr, npnp. But you realize you just described pretty much every osananjimi, more or less, minus the firebolt, which is still more Freya than Syr yo. + Show Spoiler [LN] + Part of Ryuu's appeal is obviously from the LNs since they can elaborate more with more dialogue or descriptions of behavior. Ryuu definitely starts out trying to be best wingwoman in Danmachi but she slowly warms up to him over the course of the first 4 volumes (what the animu covers). She opens up to Bell in ways you wouldn't expect a girl would unless it's to a potential love interest imoimo. I liken Ryuu a lot to Haru (Nisekoi). | ||

Didn't think about it myself but what I said about the minotaur is a spoiler to people who havn't watched it yet as well. Same goes for the firebolt and it's no different than what goody did. | ||

@Slaughter - Fan theories often contain spoilers since they use subject matter in the story to base the theory around. Shouldn't be a surprise to you. | ||

I cba'd about spoilers but if we're going to implement spoiler rules, would be nice to have an official statue of limitation in regards to spoiler talk that everyone can abide with. Are we/do we want to use one season rule? (e.g. UBW talk of this season is no go outside of spoilers, UBW talk of last season ok?) | ||

Lol I think it has officially become cool to hate on Nisekoi by the masses now. The anime is prety much copy/paste manga chapters. | ||

Because they don't really spoil much for me since they don't really say how, they just say the results. but i don't mind using the spoiler tag for people who care though. Maybe we should have a two season rule? Nothing from current and last, everything else free game? | ||

Spoke to neo about this but basically I think in trashy type anime is pretty easy to predict what is going to happen so a fan theory can often be fairly accurate. That in itself isn't an issue but there are people out there that don't really predict or think through a story instead consuming exactly what they see so when the twist comes that is normally pretty easy to predict they get fully blindsided by it. Seeing a fan theory when they may not want to see it can diminish this even if it doesn't contain anything from the story. Anyway my statement was more in a general sense of fan theories than this specific example though. Personally I don't really care about spoilers but it's something that is rather painless to do that can have a large effect on an individual. Even if 99% of people in the thread don't care it doesn't feel right to potentially hurt that 1% enjoyment just because people don't want to put in a small line of code. As for how we can put in more definite rules around spoilers I think a time limit isn't really the way to go. Not everyone has watched old shows and depending on the show a spoiler can effect enjoyment quite a bit. A more vague but potentially better system may be just to spoil any specific plot related talk but general talk about a show is fine. | ||
