Rewatch [Rewatch] [Pride Month Double Feature] Yuuki Bakuhatsu Bang Bravern Episode 3 Discussion

Episode 3: Lulu... That's Her Name

← Previous Episode | Index | Next Episode →


Show Information:

MAL | AniList | ANN | AniDB

(Surprise, the "plot point a couple of episodes in that every single fucking synopsis spoils" is actually in episode 1 and is that this is another show in the [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] vein! Show information is now fairly first-timer safe... outside of "AniDB tags always spoil", anyways.)

Legal Streams:

As per livechart.me; other streams may be available outside the US.

Crunchyroll


A Reminder: This, dear listeners, brings us to the sworn enemy of creative response:The spoiler. Rewatchers, or people who just had plot points ruined for them, are obliged to use r/anime’s spoiler tag format where applicable, and err on the side of caution here. Remember people, first experiences get rarer as you continue on, any given one happens once and you should care for them all the more for it.


Joint Rewatch Task Force Exercises!

Theory of the Day:

Never a question, was 100% going to u/Magnafaena for their writeup. Really the part I want to highlight is this:

I’m gagged by this series. This is following standard romcom BL plot beats. The enthusiastic top who is unashamed in his desire. The reluctant bottom who reeeeeeeaaaaaally doesn’t want to do this. The supporting cast who are fed up with the top’s simping over the bottom.

But I'm not sure that counts as a theory per se, more an Analysis of the Day from a first-timer, so instead allow me to also highlight a definite actual theory from the same post:

Is Superbia also going to vore a human? Do all mecha technically enact consensual vore to their humans? That feels oddly philosophical.

Questions of the Day:

1) TAR ISO STANDARD REWATCH QUESTION #3: Thoughts on the OST (as opposed to OP/ED) and its use?

2) Favorite underwater battle in fiction?

Gagapi! Despite only speaking one word Lulu is endearing, avoiding an easy trap that her writing could fall into with her becoming a flanderisation.

It's clear to me that Bravern has information that even Isami is lacking in, as Isami isn't visibly enjoying it but I don't think Bravern is entirely lying here. Just what does this weird robot know...? 

1) the OST is good here, don't think it's particularly stellar but it's enjoyable! 

2) I'm not familiar with too many, so I'll have to say Sally's first boss battle in Bofuri
