🎆 佐々木と宮野 - Sasaki and Miyano (Beginner Anime Club)

Welcome to the 佐々木と宮野 - Sasaki and Miyano Anime Club !

This is the main thread for watching the anime along with the Beginner Anime Club.
I you already have a bit of experience with japanese listening but still want to improve, it might be the good place to start ! Feel free to ask any questions on this thread if you have doubts about whether you are at the right place or not.

佐々木と宮野 - Sasaki and Miyano

It all started like a typical old-school boys’ love plotline—bad-boy senior meets adorably awkward underclassman, one of them falls in love, and so on and so forth. But although Miyano is a self-proclaimed boys’ love expert, he hasn’t quite realized…he’s in one himself. Which means it’s up to Sasaki to make sure their story has a happily ever after…!

Natively: level 24

The japanese subtitles are easy to find.

Discussion Guidelines
I’ve borrowed this section to the Absolute Beginner Book Club, and especially to the main thread of ホリミヤ. I hope it’s ok, otherwise, I’ll rephrase it my way.

Spoiler Courtesy
Please follow these rules to avoid inadvertent ネタバレ. If you’re unsure whether something should have a spoiler tag, err on the side of using one.

  • Any potential spoiler for the current week’s watching need only be covered by a spoiler tag. Predictions and conjecture made by somebody who has not read ahead still falls into this category.

  • Any potential spoilers for external sources need to be covered by a spoiler tag and include a label (outside of the spoiler tag) of what might be spoiled. These include but are not limited to: other book club picks, other books, games, movies, anime, etc. I recommend also tagging the severity of the spoiler (for example, I may still look at minor spoilers for something that I don’t intend to read soon).

  • Any information from later in the book than the current week’s watching (including trigger warnings that haven’t yet manifested) needs to be hidden by spoiler tags and labeled as coming from later sections.

Posting Advice

  • When asking for help, please mention the number of the episode and time of the section, and check before posting that your question hasn’t already been asked. As the threads get longer, it becomes more convenient to use the Search function, which is located in the upper right corner of the forum. It is the magnifying glass which is near your profile picture! The best way to search is usually to type part of the sentence you are confused about, and select “in this topic”. This will show you all posts within the current thread which has that string of text.

  • Be sure to join the conversation! It’s fun, and it’s what keeps these clubs lively! There’s no such thing as a stupid question! We are all learning here, and if the question has crossed your mind, there’s a very good chance it has crossed somebody else’s also! Asking and answering questions is a great learning opportunity for everyone involved, so never hesitate to do so!

Alright I got Japanese subs sorta working, however I can’t turn off English subs and sometimes I can’t help looking at them, so I guess I’m technically watching with both.

Since I don’t have a Crunchyroll sub right now I found a free site to watch it. I don’t know exactly how legal it is so I won’t post it here, but if anyone wants to know just message me on Natively or Discord.

New week of cuteness^^

(If someone can post something under this post for me to be able to post the link to next week thread later?
Apparently, I can’t post more than 3 posts consecutively now ><)

Really? o: I don’t think the OP of a thread is restricted by the 3 consecutive post limitation, at least that haven’t been the case in the past. Did it say you couldn’t make another post?

It seems to depend on the category too. I don’t think it applies in campfire threads, because I’ve never been blocked in my own study log.

Not on this thread, but on the main thread of the Beginner Anime Club, that’s why I can’t post the links to the new threads there anymore :woman_shrugging:
