Make Heroine ga Oosugiru! Episode 9 Discussion

They cut a lot of the fluff from the LN, and I think that was a good call, much more to the point and less meandering. I'm going to go on a limb and say that episode 10 will cover the Tsuwubaki Fest in its entirety and 11 and 12 will finish off Volume 3.

@Fiorno is the 3rd volume bigger than other ones first two took 4/3 episodes this is taking 5.
I thought next episode will probably end 3rd volume with cultural festival and last episode will go to 4th one.

*rolls eyes* It's always disappointing (for me) when a great show does garbage fanservice. Just ranting to myself here. I can't help but drop overall score of the show unless something truly exceptional happens later and forces me to give that a pass. To me such fanservice = show disrespecting itself. Fanservice is like salt. It can be good/passable in low quantities, but ruins the dish when there's too much of it.

Girl stumbles on stairs and falls on a guy, burying his face with her (usually big) boobas. Seriously? Such BS cliché scene for the sake of cheap fanservice? Just because MC narration "breaks the 4th wall" doesn't make it better. Ok, I'd close my eyes on it, but the show keeps poring more salt! Like how she has sexy costume later on, or how Lemon is naked under the bandages. Airhead girls exist, but they're not that oblivious and retarded in real life. Sure, this is fiction, but the show's been handling teen drama pretty well so far. Why keep adding unrealistic BS fanservice and basically doing what any average boring anime would do? (like when Lemon became retarded due to heat, strips, again falls on MC, then gets amnesia...). The show is already great without fanservice. Are you really that desperate for more views? Have some self respect show...

And what's with always-horny nurse (btw typical nurse with big boobas)??? Is she supposed to be funny? Spying on kids with listening devices, hoping she catches kids in the act so she can record it? To use it to fap material later or something??? Who thought this degenerate pedophile BS was necessary to include in this show? It's creepy and disturbing. You could argue it was funny the first time, but third, forth, fifth time??? She shouldn't be allowed anywhere near kids. Like, imagine you're (a boy) talking to a girl in an empty classroom about ordinary stuff and then you spot one of the teachers secretly filming you two. What the actual F?!

Lemon what in the world were you thinking 😂

Komari va does such a good job, I'm really enjoying the character even more thanks to her. Komari dynamic with Nukumizu kinda gives me siblings vibes ngl. Speaking of siblings, hers was so cute.

Looking forward to the festival itself!

@WaterMage Volume Three has 4 main chapters like the first two volumes. This episode in particular covers Chapter 2 from start to finish. Chapter 3 covers the festival in its entirety, literally from the beginning to the closing of the festival, but there's a bit more after it in the same chapter that I believe can be adapted as the end of episode 10 or the start of episode 11.

@Sigmar-Unberogen this is what parody means you can't parody something without actually showing and diconstruct it. Nukumizu saying "like LN" and for Lemon revealing she weren't doing anything without getting horny is making fun of entire situation.
If a one random fan-service here there in a comedy anime is annoying you this much idk if this show is for you, because they will (I think) keep doing it.

@WaterMage Parody made more sense in comedy like "100 girlfriends". Overuse of Parody/cheap fanservice feels more out of place here for me, hence the rant. I stated clearly that my complaint isn't about the existence of fanservice but the abundance of it. Too much of something is not always good. I explicitly used Nurse-scene to emphasize how comedy stops being comedy. Are you going to claim that's a parody too?

I'd argue against the show not taking itself too seriously. Unlike "100 girlfriends" (for instance) which is a dumb comedy/parody, this show takes itself pretty seriously when it comes to depiction of teen drama for instance. The show left a very good impression with the first episode so you should understand why I'd feel disappointed. I assumed it was special. Even now I think the show is pretty good, I wish it was better. That's all to it.
Lemon, for example, is a pretty realistic teen girl, but then we have her doing totally unrealistic BS like not even wearing panties in class while bandaged, or going braindead due to heat and stripping. All of this is done purely because the show wanted to have fanservice moment - the end. That's what's disappointing IMO. You can have comedy without such BS. Now, singular moments I can give a pass despite having allergic reactions, but when it keeps reoccurring and compiling it gets annoying and frustrating, for me at least. (mostly because, as I stated, I consider fanservice to be "sacrifice quality for views" move).

That aside, take the nurse for instance, again:

Nurse talks about her sex life with kids - "hahaha what a weirdo"
Nurse spies on kids with listening devices - haha? *concerned laughter*.
Nurse talks about her sex life again (wanted to) - hah... (students reaction to her made it somewhat funny)
Nurse using freaking camera to spy on kids - *laughter stops*.

See my point? It stops being funny when her weirdness gets repeated and gets worse.

What makes it worse is that in previous instances you could argue she was trolling kids or was listening secretly to stop "mischievous" students before they'd do the deed or something. This time she clearly intends to secretly record two students kissing or more, after apparently stalking them. It's no longer possible to argue she has noble motives here. Is her pedophilic behavior supposed to be funny? Because she's a woman or something? Dunno, I think they went too far with "comedy" in this.


Less we see the Nurse in this show, the better.

"Thanks" but no. I think I can make decisions myself.



And? I complain because I have my reasons. If you've actually read my comment, you'd know I've stated that I think the show is still really good. It just isn't IN MY OPINION 10/10 any longer thanks to IMO totally unnecessary and cheap fanservice. I even stated why I think it stopped being funny.

I'll repeat myself yet again, my OC is ranting and is just my opinion. You don't need to agree!

@Sigmar-Unberogen I see your point and understand your grievance.

For me atleast some fan-service here and there's doesn't really sully the show or cheapnes. But again it varies with people.
Show takes itself seriously but to the core it still kinda parodying run of the mill romcoms.
Lemon I think has self-awareness problem she is doing it way too many times to just label as an excuse for this moments.

Konuki as I said is completely criminal degenerate behaviour. But still she's a very minor part. If you like it you like it. If you find very distracting then it is what it is. I am neutral I do think it's going a bit to far, but as I said it's once here there and it does get laughter out of me(my standards are low)
