Either way it will be pretty hilarious if Kyoani does a complete change in tone now.




You'd be hard pressed to find pdf's of the novel which hasn't been released outside of Japan yet to confirm unless you buy them yourself, so for now this is the best we're going to get in terms of what information western fandom has access to for the content beyond the anime.

Hope someone does a full summary someday because this clearly needs more context.

So it doesn't make sense to me. I hope that at least in the movie we get a detailed explanation of their relationship, cus from what I heard from novel so far is really weird and doesn't make sense, but makes me upset instead cus its ruining the show for me, either leave romance out of this or pull it through.

KumiRei is the favorite ship of aprox. 95% of fan base, but unfortunately this movie will make the ship sink.

@Akihaa

Speculations are a bad thing, especially when they concern shiping. I still remember the fan theories that Kumiko is a lesbian, she was allegedly “just convinced” that she likes a guy. In any case, I read the dialogue you indicated, rather it says that they temporarily broke up because of Kumiko's “egoism” than they did at all.

She even invites him to dating with her again when she becomes president.

That's not how it went but close, nonetheless.


Coming back to the movie, the PV will air in little over three hours from now. Precisely in 3 hours and 35 minutes from now!

@shanimebib In any case, there is clearly noticeable subtle emphasis on "temporarily" and "if you still love me, then invite me". Forsed romantic drama so forsed.

If it really turns out to be the Kumiko x Shuichi movie, then I have to go to the bunker. Well, you understand.

Let's not get into spoilers in the open, shall we?

Besides, the biggest role for Shuichi will be in Kumiko's third year (the books will be available soon). This may not come across to western fans, but Shuichi is more popular amongst Japanese fans than they think he is.

@shanimebib Oh, thanks for the detailed post! Well, what do you want if some fans openly write that any arch without Kumiko x Reina is "bad writing", just because it does not add ship tease to their ship?

I can understand people who perceive Liz as subtle romance and refer to Yamada’s words as her semi-official ship of these two, but it really annoys me when people consider romance as the sole cause of absolutely any events in Eupho and therefore, any departure from KumiRei in the second season as "homophobia and destruction of the show".

I do hope this movie will get things right. Hibike! Euphonium started very well in the first season. I liked how the club was presented, how Kumiko spent her free time with Hazuki, Sapphire and Shuuichi. I thought it was a good show about music and friendship. But then they decided to focus on Reina and that queerbaiting ruined everything. If they expected Kumiko to end up with Shuuichi why did they added so much suggestive scenes between Kumiko and Reina? Kyo Ani loves putting fan service to attract people but what was the point? They've ruined the show with it and now they're trying to fix things up?

Since I didn't like how the anime went I'll be watching Chikai no Finale as an individual movie that (hopefully) focuses on music AND friendship. I really hope we will see more about Shuuichi,Hazuki, Sapphire and the new characters. Because Reina got enough screentime and she's also irritating.

I am not sure why you seem to know the answer but asking the same in the form of a question. It's nothing new. Any studio does that.

However, unlike the popular claims, KyoAni pulled the plug on yuri the moment Reina revealed she was in love with Taki-sensei. Also, Reina has been well aware of the fact that Kumiko liked Shuichi romantically ever since Kumiko tightened her grip on Reina's arm witnessing Shuichi about to be snatched away from her by Hazuki. It is the reason why she constantly brought up the subject. Even before their first and foremost intimate scene when she broke the ice between them by touching Kumiko's lips, she mentioned about the festival because she knew Kumiko's mind was wavering there because at that same moment Shuichi was spending time with Hazuki in that festival.

Reina wanted Kumiko to open up to her as she wanted to open up to Kumiko, too. The reason why she constantly brought up Shuichi was because she opened up to Kumiko that she liked ('like' as in 'love') Taki-sensei and wanted Kumiko to do the same. The wanting to peel the mask off of Kumiko is also because of that. Although, the one who did that was Asuka.

Also, fans seem to constantly forget why Reina disliked Shuichi. She caught him talking negatively about Taki-sensei with Kumiko. But she only heard half of the conversation when Shuichi was, and rightly so, defending Reina, part of the conversation she didn't hear.

Fans need to pay more attention to why certain characters behave certain ways in this anime. Those are not just random.

Yes, Reina said that she was in love with Taki. And with her attitude toward Kumiko shows that she wants her to open to her BUT what was the point to show her touching her lips, taking her face, getting so intimate with her? Even best friends doesn't act like that so either it was useless fan service either they were implying the show was going on the Kumiko x Reina route. I didn't like this fan service and I didn't like how the show went because since Kumiko became friend with Reina we don't get to see the others and I prefered the friendship between Kumiko, Hazuki, Sapphire and Shuuichi rather that the friendship between Kumiko and Reina. Moreover, due to her attitude, I couldn't like Reina. It seemed for me that she's the kind of people who acts mature while she's just a teenager who doesn't know anything about life. She speaks bad about Shuuichi without knowing the whole context. I mean if she was really mature she would ask why he is talking like that about Taki. Dislike people for a reason like that... jeez... During the whole her character doesn't evolve at all (in season 2 she still talk bad about Shuuichi). I can't really enjoy a show if one of the main character is annoying and Reina is the kind of person I want to slap. And what Kyo Ani did with the Kumiko - Reina didn't help me to enjoy it more.
At first I really thought that this could be a really good anime but it went downhill since the emphasis on Kumiko and Reina relationship.

That's why I hope this new movie will get things right.

Anyway, that's just my personal opinion.

Aikawarazu... you only see the hints that interest you. If you have also read the latest 3 novels (so it seems, as for your "love" and "Iike" reference) even in them you have hints in both directions. And then you too know that Kumiko's feelings towards Shuuichi are not resolved, right?

Warui koto ja nain dakedo... Kumiko no sei nara, wakatta.

You don't have to do like everyone else, thought. I don't know why (unlucky you) I have a better standard of you XD. And because hints is exactly the thing that there is in mass quantity in eupho. If you are able to see those on the Shuuichi shoes you also have to be able to read the ones that don't go to Shuuichi side, sore dake :P.

About Shuuichi, wakatta, I can see that. This is a good promotion. Now he plays a role for himself. I'm not a big Shuuichi fan but I liked this. Hontou ni kore ha sugoi to omotta.

There's a high chance of further adaptations though. Kyoto Animation seems to have soft spots for Hibike! franchise and I won't be surprised if the final two volumes are adapted into a movie or a TV series.

It probably will not and should not go TLS route because unlike Tamako, who is like an apple pie, and Mochizou, who is like a fruitcake, Kumiko is more or less a tiramisu and Shuuichi is basically a cinnamon bread. Their personalities are way too different from the other two to give us a cute and fluffy romance like TLS.

nb. it was your first post in MAL and I liked it. :)

I guess the rumour is right. The original news of the released date has been removed from the official site. The only news I found is on the Keihan collaboration plan.

Nope. It's unconfirmed. The original release date was Nov 5, 2019 so it's using that as the countdown. The official website has removed the date from BD/DVD page.
