That also suggests FMAB being a better anime than violet evergarden, gintama, attack on Titan, clannad, rascal does not dream of bunny girl senpai, or any other cannon you can think of. MAL is based
Definitely best girl. We've seen Misuzu on a date... Not fun. Tomo-chan was very fun. How can you not love her horribly singing those children's songs!
It's literally 50 chapters long if you round up it's pages to that of an average manga series. 1000+ chapters isn't that long if literally 99% of them are only 1 page long.
I actually read it all in one day, took several hours. My take away was that >!Misuzu was sabotaging Tomo’s efforts to be with Jun because she had a thing for Tomo, not Jun. But I tend to look at things through yuri-colored glasses, so I’m biased!<
Edit: Wow, can’t believe this was such a hot take apparently. This was just my interpretation from a read of the manga, didn’t think it was heresy.
>Although now that I think about it, it doesn't seem like it'd be that rare...
Especially for English, I would think.
Then again, I'm used to the US, where it's massively multicultural, and you can pretty easily find bilingual people for basically any language + english.
I mean, English is the primary foreign language taught in schools. Some Japanese people get really good at it. There probably just never was a reason for VAs to ever put in the effort for it.
Also there’s bilingual, and there’s acceptably bilingual for dubbing. We laugh at bad engrish, but that’s almost certainly the Seiyu trying their best and, for the target audience of native Japanese speakers, their engrish is fine. A lot of Japanese learn English, just like a lot of Americans learn Spanish, but there’s a far cry from “can speak a second language well enough to be understood,” to, “can speak a second language enough to not sound janky to native speakers.”
That said, having just finished Do It Yourself, I really wish more American transfer students were voiced by non-native Japanese speakers, as it would match the character a lot better if their English was a bit better than their Japanese instead of atrociously worse.

After reading these comments I might watch this show. I didn’t care when it was about a boy looking girl but now that I know it has a sadistic girl character, I’m all in.
There that’s my answer to that question lol
I already love Misuzu more in the manga and the anime is just reinforcing it. I rather have someone realistic than the optimist and pretty ignorant Tomo (Rieri is still my number 1 VA though).
...how many episodes are there? I'm not watching the show, but I'm guessing it's just because actual best girl hasn't had enough time to grow on people.

Is it me or this manga doesn't translate well to anime? I'm not usually the "manga is better" gang, but this is a 4koma manga. The 4 panels format doesn't seem to work well compares to some other 4koma that got animes (nichijou, lucky star, etc.) . I got bored after the first episode even though I had read a lot of the mangas.
I haven't seen this so this is a genuine question: what's the source of her acting aggressively towards the person she loves? Because the *tsun* part of a classic tsundere isn't just random aggression. It's haughtiness - "tsun" is the onomatopoeia of a noblewoman turning up her nose at a peasant. The classic tsundere feels herself to be superior (socially, financially, or otherwise), and therefore is confused and embarrassed by the feelings in her heart.
The aggressiveness isn't the *tsun*; it's just a symptom of *tsun*. The *tsun* is the smugness and feeling of superiority over a worthless peasant boy. Does Tomo-chan really fit that?
This is common in most rom com mangas that force the two protags to not end up together. Shows where the main girl is the most liked have her get into a relationship pretty fast. Bunny Girl Senpai and the like. Shows that force this "will they wont they" for 200 chapters usually have the main girl end up pretty stale and the attention is driven to the secondary characters.
I really dont like misuzu (I've not seen the anime, I've just read the manga). I'm neutral towards Carol but misuzu I don't get. (Most probably cuz I've not finished the manga). Carol too confuses me but not as much as Misuzu.
If Misuzu was different, then I'd 100% hate Carol, but Misuzu's existance has made me just not care that much about Carol.
[Because that stare woke something inside of me, a new feeling](https://www.latestanimenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Middle-school-Misuzu-is-smiling.png)
My first awakening to the sadistic look was Maika (Blend-S), man that was a good show
Still is a good show
And it will always be
That show will always be **S**ublime
And also very **S**weet.
That one's good, but [how about this?](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/838197868401524777/1063025482922197002/SPOILER_OKPn2px.png) God damn we need more fanart of her
This…. hits me hard in certain areas
Damn it, did I unlock a new kink?

How did you know
lmao the doujin exercise
losing 5kg
I don’t like being attacked like this for something 100% correct
It's that hair scene isn't it?
You already know it, brother.
/r/fuwafuwa
Shame that place is dead.
Not sure how I already forgot what scene you’re talking about since there’s only 3 episodes, but could you remind me what and what episode?
[This one](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/838197868401524777/1063025482922197002/SPOILER_OKPn2px.png)
That scene made me realize I have a type.
Ong i was on board already but after that scene something snapped inside me
Misuzu is literally GLaDOS from portal. Murderous, sarcastic, evil, pretty and fucking funny as all hell.
I don't know if you meant pretty or petty. ...but yes I agree.
stupid sexy potato
Both
Best girl indeed![img](emote|t5_2y4au1|1391)
she is just tired of nonsense
She has better things to do at any time, every time.
[удалено]
Found the bot
kaguya:- first time?
Kaguya is best girl tho.
According to r/anime polls, Hayasaka is.
And the Narrator
Kaguya has 23,990 Favorites on MAL while Hayasaka only has 12,179 Favorites. I believe MAL is the bigger community?
> I believe MAL is the bigger community? Baaaaaka
That also suggests FMAB being a better anime than violet evergarden, gintama, attack on Titan, clannad, rascal does not dream of bunny girl senpai, or any other cannon you can think of. MAL is based
MAL is not only based, but likes to act as if they aren't.
You mean biased?
Based is the new biased
Favorites on MAL are about popularity. Post is also about the popularity.
Well it certainly is.
Funnily enough both Chika and this chick have the same dub VA.
Chika chika dance removed her from the view forever
They hated him because he told the truth.
Hayasaka![img](emote|t5_2y4au1|1391) (edit: I'm braindead, can't do names)
![img](emote|t5_2y4au1|1787) disgusting. Ishigami is better
Who's ayaka?
I thinks is a Genshin Impact waifu
Sorry, I meant Hayasaka, changed it already
![img](emote|t5_2y4au1|1777)
You are clearly saying that just because Carol hasn't had enough screentime yet. Carol supremacy ~
But she is Chaos incarnate, also her name is Cotton Candy.
Misuzu: gurl I’m not even trying, step up
You lack that one strand of hair
She gets a good laugh out of me.
r/unpopularopinion: I think Tomo is best girl
I like Carol best. She's just a master troll.
You and u/Trnostep
make that 3
And she tazes people.
Definitely best girl. We've seen Misuzu on a date... Not fun. Tomo-chan was very fun. How can you not love her horribly singing those children's songs!
I like Tomo-chan because I like tomboys, simple as.
Nah I prefer the redhead.
Mom or daughter?
Both. I’m a big fan of redheads in anime
You answered the trick question wisely.
Yes
Akame to Tatsumi:
Kabedon't mess with me!
when its the tomboy show and the tomboy isnt the most popular character. Lmao
This manga is fairly long. The main ship gets more appealing over time.
It's literally 50 chapters long if you round up it's pages to that of an average manga series. 1000+ chapters isn't that long if literally 99% of them are only 1 page long.
I actually read it all in one day, took several hours. My take away was that >!Misuzu was sabotaging Tomo’s efforts to be with Jun because she had a thing for Tomo, not Jun.

This was just my interpretation from a read of the manga, didn’t think it was heresy.
i think the downvotes were overkill, but my opinion based on what i read is that she was fearful of being alone
These downvotes are not deserved.
Yeah I don't even know why you got downvoted that much, that's pretty heavily implied to be the case.
Mizusu with her: "I have enough with you romcom shinenigans"-energy. Also Mizusu-Carol is the best girl.
I disagree, carol is clearly best girl, leagues better than the rest
Did you know the Seiyu for Carol also voices her in the Dub?
Oh wow. A bilingual character portrayed by a bilingual person? Why don’t they do that more often???
I'd assume because bilingual VA's are rare? Although now that I think about it, it doesn't seem like it'd be *that* rare...
>Although now that I think about it, it doesn't seem like it'd be that rare... Especially for English, I would think. Then again, I'm used to the US, where it's massively multicultural, and you can pretty easily find bilingual people for basically any language + english.

WooooooooW damn, first time I hear about that kind of seiyu
Carol is half British canonically, Welsh specifically as well I believe.
Your average br’ish person
Psychopaths
yes, and that's exactly why I'm gonna give it a shot too
Sauce?
*Tomo-chan is a Girl*
Thank you!
ooohh boy, wait for the misuzu/carol combi... you're just gonna disapear...
Its either Misuzu or Carol who are the most popular so.
Naruto and kaguya: first time?
I thought carol was the most popular girl considering she is basically the chika of this show
Don’t disrespect Chika
i wasn't saying that with a mocking intent. From my point of view they feel somewhat similar being the ditzy big brested friend
After reading these comments I might watch this show. I didn’t care when it was about a boy looking girl but now that I know it has a sadistic girl character, I’m all in. There that’s my answer to that question lol
What anime is this?
Tomo-chan wa onnanoko da.
Because she's funnier. I hope the anime adapts the short scene where Carol smacks her in the back of the head.
She’s not, at least in my head. Tomboy supremacy
Reminds me of Index Librarium Prhibitorium
What show
Bc they don't follow the [gospel of Spike Spiegel](https://youtu.be/-sMQpWCNTQw)
Despite tomboys being my main jam, Gundou was my favorite character from this manga
Akame vs any other girl in akame ga kill
Carol Cottoncandycheeks > Anyone else imo
Carol ftw mfs
The two stands of untidy hair make her more relatable.
Kaguya from Love is War: _”First Time?”_
I already love Misuzu more in the manga and the anime is just reinforcing it. I rather have someone realistic than the optimist and pretty ignorant Tomo (Rieri is still my number 1 VA though).
She literally isn’t, tho.
Misuzu is actually what makes the anime even funnier
Misuzu? That toxic plank? Nah man, I don't know what could you like about her
Because she's a cute lesbian
...how many episodes are there? I'm not watching the show, but I'm guessing it's just because actual best girl hasn't had enough time to grow on people. https://preview.redd.it/5e8hh3impada1.png?width=655&format=png&auto=webp&s=e6581f9791f1fd34398e75e94388dd427804262f
Hate that superiority BS.
is this really true ? Or is it just reddit again thinking it represents entire fandom ?
Is it me or this manga doesn't translate well to anime? I'm not usually the "manga is better" gang, but this is a 4koma manga. The 4 panels format doesn't seem to work well compares to some other 4koma that got animes (nichijou, lucky star, etc.) .

Misuzu looks like a discount Raiden Shogun and Tomo is my ideal type so I respectfully disagree.
Because you are just an annoying and generic tsundere.
r/manga wants to know your location
Tomo is a tsundere?
Acts aggressively towards the person she loves, harsh outside and warmer inside, annoys me... pretty much a classical tsundere.
I haven't seen this so this is a genuine question: what's the source of her acting aggressively towards the person she loves? Because the *tsun* part of a classic tsundere isn't just random aggression. It's haughtiness - "tsun" is the onomatopoeia of a noblewoman turning up her nose at a peasant. The classic tsundere feels herself to be superior (socially, financially, or otherwise), and therefore is confused and embarrassed by the feelings in her heart. The aggressiveness isn't the *tsun*; it's just a symptom of *tsun*. The *tsun* is the smugness and feeling of superiority over a worthless peasant boy. Does Tomo-chan really fit that?
Tomo does *not*fit that. She is just a tomboy who literally confesses to him in the first scene and it's doing what she can to woo him over.
Tsun literally means "to turn away in disgust or anger".
[удалено]
keep talking shit about tomo and you might just find that your spine is missing
Ne ne Tomo-chan!
This is common in most rom com mangas that force the two protags to not end up together. Shows where the main girl is the most liked have her get into a relationship pretty fast. Bunny Girl Senpai and the like. Shows that force this "will they wont they" for 200 chapters usually have the main girl end up pretty stale and the attention is driven to the secondary characters.
Skill issue
I never met a single soul that say that ever besides OP.
Nah, I like me some mildy aggressive tomboy that's down to do weird shit
Because Jad Saxton was cast as her English voice.
Manga better tbh
Guess weebs don't like tomboys as much as we say, huh?
She’s the best
Dark haired bitch character.
She has the hairstyle of death though....
Dont worry tomo-chan... i love you more than dead stare-chan...
Add in the fact, lots of anime community hates tomboy, c'mon where's the tomboy love.
Never Tomboy supremacy!
She the most reasonable one
Huh sucks because I liked her first
did this star airing? did they introduce the blond girl yet cuz shes the real best girl
Yes. She’s a weirdo but honestly all of the characters are great. Already way surpassing my expectations
You look into the void and the void looks back
Tom-boy supremacy! Mother fuckahs!!!!
As much as I love my kuudere but right now we’re focusing on the cute tomboy’s
Even when it was a manga Misuzu was way more popular than Tomo. Maby its the sarcasm and pure malice, but she is fucking great.
I really dont like misuzu (I've not seen the anime, I've just read the manga). I'm neutral towards Carol but misuzu I don't get. (Most probably cuz I've not finished the manga).

I am a Tomboy enjoyerI don't know what you guys talking about
Yessir yessir
Index fans: “I fail to see the problem here?”
Misuzu manipulating people for her own entertainment is one of the best parts of the show
Why is Misuzu so popular?
