Yotsuba needs her own thread. She's a big girl already.
>>42007 That's a pretty big gap for a teenager.
>>42007 How is that NOT a big gap?
This is a series I gave to my grandmother. And you know what? She likes it. I cannot say that about everything I read. Fact some stuff I read I'd be ashamed to even acknowledge I read in front of her. But this series? It's special. It doesn't matter who reads it. People seem to love it. And the only person who DIDN'T like it seemed to have an obsession with death and violence that was, to say the least, unhealthy. That says something about this book. When you make a work that can be enjoyed by practically any demographic. By any age and by any measure. It's amazing. It is just goddamn amazing.
No matter what chapter I read, no matter how many times I read it, I WILL smile the whole way through.
Oh my God... What's cuter than Yotsuba? Sleepy Yotsuba.
>>42019 When he's 75 she'll be 60. I believe the "Law of Age Gap Creepiness" says that it's okay to date someone who is half your age plus seven years.
>>42027 But RIGHT NOW she is FIVE. You don't ship CHILDREN. Especially not with someone 15 years older than them. It's CREEPY. You gonna try arguing that you can hook up with a five year old because when you're an old man and she's middle aged it won't be creepy anymore?
>>42028 That's how they do it in India.
>>42028 But in most of those pictures (the ones that are explicitly romantic) she's not 5 anymore.
>>42032 >You gonna try arguing that you can hook up with a five year old because when you're a middle aged man and she's a teenager it won't be creepy anymore?
>>42033 It's about a 15 year age difference right? That means when Yotsuba is 20 he'll be 35. That's not all that bad actually.
Jesus christ. Guys, guys. I know I said the first chapter of that particular doujin was good, but that doesn't make it a good pairing. The first chapter was good because it wasn't overtly romantic. It was just Yotsuba being teenaged Yotsuba and Yanda being a massive troll, as Yanda is wont to do. Yanda kissed her at the end, but then he ran off going 'lol i stole ur first kiss' like the troll he is, and so everything was fine. It was downhill from there because after that, it WAS overtly romantic, and it really strained at the confines of characterization. One big problem was that, yes, the age gap between them is just too large for regular romantic plotting. It does happen that middle-aged dudes to get it on with high school girls, but doing so in a realistic manner requires a very different form of writing, which really doesn't fit in with Yotsuba. AT THE SAME TIME, GUYS, shipping a teenager with a middle aged person is not at ALL the same as shipping a twenty-something with a five year old. Even if the age gap is the same, I think we can all agree that there is a VERY BIG DIFFERENCE between these. So stop trying to claim that people are trying to hook up Yotsuba as a five year old and Yanda. They're not. They're imagining a teenaged Yotsuba, how she would behave and imagining her interactions with an older Yanda, and shipping THOSE TWO based on that. Not the same thing. Trying to equate them is an obvious false equivalence. Stop doing that. TL;DR, this thread has taken a very sharp turn for the moronic, on every side. Everybody stop saying stupid shit and get back to posting cute Yotsuba shit.
>>42054 CAN DO
>>42054 Will Do!
>>42054 >Yanda kissed her at the end, but then he ran off going 'lol i stole ur first kiss' like the troll he is, and so everything was fine. God I fucking love Yanda. Screw Yotsubanda, I ship ME with Yanda.
I've said it before, I'll probably say it again; Yanda is pretty much grown-up Calvin. And I have shipped Yotsuba and Calvin before.
Eldrad x Yanda. Dickshipping.
Ah, there's the Yotsuba thread!

I hope that one day, I can be as good a father as this man.
>>45265 Hes a model father.
Hey! There's a new Yotsuba! http://wakachan.org/azu/res/210207.html English: http://wakachan.org/azu/src/Yotsubato%20ch69%20English.rar Raw: http://wakachan.org/azu/src/Yotsubato%20ch69%20Raw.rar oh Miura...
>>47168 >That ending Oh dear god.
>>47168 >thereisnoreactionforwhati'mfeelingrightnow.jpg
There is a new Yotsuba! In this chapter, the girls dabble in the black arts. http://wakachan.org/azu/res/211028.html#211064
>>48893 Miura's mom is so confused.
>>48893 THE MIGHTY DANBO CANNOT DIE EVEN IF HE IS KILLED!
>>48894 Indeed.
>>48894 >>Miura's mom is so HOT Fixed that for ya. Seriously, she's aiming to displace Koiwai as most attractive parent in this series.
...Can we talk about Koiwai/Fuuka then?
>>49161 Sure, if you want to. Personally I think it's adorable.
>>49161 Not a fan, myself. I can dig her crushing on him, but him reciprocating in any way feels weird to me.
>>49164 Well, there's the age disparity.
>>49161 *~* The BEST ship!
>>49164 >>49169 Wasn't the legal age of consent in Japan 16? Wouldn't that mean both of them are consenting adults capable of having and subsequently acting on feelings for each other, possibly even pursuing a mature relationship?
>>49172 Varies depending on prefecture. The national age of consent is actually thirteen..
>>49172 Man, whatever, she's still sixteen, and Koiwai is way too cool a dude to be tapping teenaged ass.
>>49181 The age discrepancy thing is less of a cultural issue in Japan (to the country's detriment on occasion) and I think his portrayal in Pretty Neighbour was pretty accurate to the source and if I imagined him in any sexual situation it'd be like that.
How old is Koiwai anyway?
>>49184 It's implied he's gone to high school (at least) and he has work as a translator. I'd say he's at least mid to late twenties. Early thirties would be pushing it.
>>49183 >Pretty Neighbor
>>49186 By the way, the creator got hired on as Azuma's assistant, apparently BECAUSE Azuma read Pretty Neighbor online.
>>49187 That's turrifying.
>>49186 If you're talking about the Ena arcs then yea I agree...
>>49189 Should've ended in lesbians. I was so disappoint.
>>49189 Man, I was pissed even about Asagi! I just wanted nothing but pages and pages of Fuuka and Koiwai, god dammit! D:
>>49210 Everything of Fuuka's belongs to Asagi. Besides, there was that hilarious one with the bathroom window in the last one.
>Yotsuba thread >Shipping >SHIPPING Dammit people. Oh well, at least you stopped talking about Yotsuba x Yanda....
>>49239 Man, why would you even say that if you didn't want us to talk about it? I'm not even a troll and I want to start talking about Yotsuba x Yanda now.
I ship Yotsubox x Yanda.
>>49374 That's disgu-- --oh, you meant the cardboard box. Carry on.
