Alright, I'm reviving this thread briefly because I have a PSA:





It's because of people like these two that discussion around this movie is so fucking toxic. Don't be like these guys.

There is a myriad of valid criticisms toward both the writing and the bride choice. Brushing off detractors of this film and series as butthurt is *not* how you validate any of the series' positive attributes.

If you watched the show well enough you would know that Yotsuba was a likely contender and here’s why (disclaimer: I am anime-only, and some of the reasons here are in my opinion and some are based off the show)

1. The second season hit us with the deep backstory bs and i know, i know, we all hate when backstory gets in the way of actual logic but it was bound to happen the moment the show made it clear that Futaro had met one of the quintuplets when he was little. It was also hinted heavily that Yotsuba was the one he met back then.

2. The fact that someone dressed up as Itsuki and kissed Futaro in the last episode of season 2 was enough to narrow down who the main contender was. Miku could get the dress up accurately but wouldn’t be brave enough and wouldn’t feel right doing that, couldn’t be Itsuki cus of her more friendly relationship with Futaro (I’ll get more into this in the next reason), so the only three quintuplets that could possibly do this are Ichika, Nino and Yotsuba and i’ll give reasons why he couldn’t have worked out with the other two.

3. Based off each of their relationships with Futaro, Yotsuba always had the deepest one even ignoring the fact they met years ago. Scenes such as the playground swing scene or her confession scene in season 1 showed how friendly and real their relationship was, it showed they didn’t need it to look like she was madly in love with him all the time to be close. She was literally the only sister that didn’t hate him at first and was real and friendly with him all through. Itsuki was basically the mature one and mother figure of the sisters and you could tell she wasn’t really focused on love or anything serious with Futaro most of the time, although she did develop feelings later on, Nino literally hated him for a good half of the show and is a literal tsundere, if you really thought that would work out idk what to tell you, Ichika for the first half was really selfish, had a terrible personality and would literally do anything even betraying her sisters just to get Futaro, although she had good character development later on this really stained their relationship, so the only contenders left were Miku and Yotsuba, and if you asked me Miku was really cute and all, had a good relationship with him and everyone was rooting for her, i get it, but facts is he had the best relationship with Yotsuba.

4. Finally. in my opinion, the fact that he had the least on-screen interactions with Yotsuba, yet each scene they had together where really memorable, wholesome and deep really meant a lot. Yes in the movie, Miku had the best kiss scene, he also had a lot of amazing moments with the other sisters, but if you really watched this show you really cant come out and say Yotsuba wasnt a contender from the start and call it ‘a weird ending’ just based off the fact she was the least liked sister or your least favourite girl, cmon man.

Exactly!!
It baffles me even more when people say Itsuki was a more deserving winner when she is literally a door, no personality whatsoever

TomboyTamer said:

And people like you need to accept the facts that your best girl didn't win. Stop capping.

People are allowed to disagree without being attack by toxic fans like yourself? Personally having all 5 girls like him was stupid to begin with was just stupid. Also people can understand and still disagree can't they?

Before I start this, if you liked that Yotsuba won, then good for you. I'm not about to get into an arguement with anyone about who should've won.

During the first two season I only saw her as a cheerful girl being helpful to everyone. But now she suddenly got a heavy backstory which doesn't really mean anything to me since to me, she was not "liked" from previous seasons. Not that I "hate" or but I didn' like that she got picked when she didn't do anything special.

And it's shown by this site and other sites like ani list that she's around the 4th liked sister behind Miku, Nino and Itsuki (and Itsuki doesn't even like Fuutarou).
But my guess is the author had already picked Yotsuba from the start and didn't care what the fans thought. Cause before the movie, there was no definite sign that Yotsuba is the one that will be chosen (correct me if I'm wrong).

For example in Oregairu, Nisekoi, Oreshura, Rent-a-girlfriend, A couply of cuckoos it's obvious from the first episode who will be picked (at least if you're a experienced rom-com watcher like me). But here the author had an opportunity to pick most liked character but chose the 4th most liked character instead since I don't recall any sign from the first episode. Which only makes me think more that the author had already picked Yotsuba from the start.

Well, now that I'm done with that I'm gonna go eat at my first ramen restaurant that's in Sweden while I think about why I just wrote so much about a rom-com anime

Am i not on my right to share my opinion?? Also when was i toxic? I didnt offend or attacked anyone, i just said Itsuki was clearly never a candidate and that i dont like her personality (or lack of).

Why are you taking it so personal? He didn't agree with it and thats his right to but you keep spamming and just being toxic. You need to accept the fact that people can have a different opinion without being attacked

TomboyTamer said:

Tell me when did I started being toxic, oh yeah, you just blame me for telling the truth.

Honestly, I don't think you understand what 'toxic' exactly meant. I think you meant it's for people who said "X should be the winner because she really deserves it" or "Why X is the winner? She barely do nothing" on this thread.

Clearly I was being disagree with TS/OP. Maybe you should look in the mirror and think about what you've said before.

Is English your second language, or are you just not all there? The toxicity that’s being referred to is (what seems to be your belief) that every criticism of the movie, it’s ending and the bride choice stems from people being butthurt about their favourite girl not being picked.

If you want to actually argue for points in favour of the movies ending, like other people on this very thread have, that’s fine, and welcomed with open arms. But being blind to, and straight up dismissing criticism is considered toxic.

I’ve already written my review for the movie. It’s the top one, if you want to read it. Hopefully it will actually point out to you some of the many problems the movie actually has.
