Hi, I know that in the end Yotsuba and Futaro do manage to be together but that's all I know, please can you tell me what happened in the end and what is the current status of Futaro and Yotsuba?
It was also confirmed that they released an ln of this series. Can you tell me:
Is this light novel canon with the series?
What is it about?
Does it tell us events that happened before or after the end of manga?
Idc if this wiki is dead, i'm saying what I want 😭
Spoiler warning.
I recently finished the QQ anime after putting it off for years (mostly because of bad memory) and...oh...my...GOD. Hands down, the best romance I've ever watched. Not best harem. Not best romcom. Best romance I've ever seen, period. Top 5 anime I've ever watched all the way through, regardless of genre. I can't believe I went so long without watching it. Last Friday (I finished it in one weekend 🙏) I randomly thought of it again, and decided I'd look up where to watch it, and it said Netflix. I'm not exaggerating when I say I literally bought a Netflix sub JUST to watch TQQ. And boy, it was worth EVERY PENNY.
I don't even know where to start bro. There's so much I like, I can't even think about how to put it into words. From start to finish, I was HOOKED. Everything about it was like a refresher compared to other harems. So many old tropes thrown out of the window in exchange for characters PEOPLE ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT. Like, everybody had a different girl they wanted to win. In most harems there's a dead set fav, but QQ? No. Do you understand the level of writing it takes for EVERYONE to want someone different to win. It's absolutely crazy. Speaking of writing, let's talk about how well written these characters are.
Futaro
First off, thank God he didn't do what every other harem mc does and just not pick anyone (or pick them all). When I saw the wedding scene in the very beginning, I almost yelled out loud. FINALLY, a promised conclusion. They knew exactly how to hook an audience. As for Futaro himself, he's an amazing character. Of everyone, I think he had the second most development in the series (we'll get to no.1 next). Although he dev starts off pretty slow for me, he was never a boring character to me. People hate how "oblivious" he was to everyone's emotions, but I always thought he just didn't know how to react to them, which is why he always enforced the fact he was just a tutor. However, as the series progresses (ESPECIALLY in Season 2), he actually accepts their friendship and opens up more and more. Every moment he was onscreen with one of the quints felt so tense, like anything could happen, and I love that feeling. There's so much more I could say, but I'm tryna keep this short so let's get to best girl.
Nino
EAAAAAAAAAAASILY the best character in the series. Personality wise, relationship wise, character wise, literally everything. Nino is so far above the other 4 in writing it's almost hard to believe. What's crazier, all of the quints are well written. There's legitimately not one of them that is a bad character in my eyes. And Nino still gaps 😭 Her character development is GODLY bro. Binging the anime was the best way to watch it. It's like watching every character change in real time. The experience of watching Nino's interactions was unbelievably entertaining. EVERY time she was on screen, I was hooked. There was never a dull moment with her character. She drilled forward so many plot points in the series. I'm not joking when I say this anime would have been just as good with just her as the sole female MC. Her character just SCREAMS of excellence. Seriously, I can NOT stress how amazing her development is. The moment she cut her hair, she just hit an entirely new level. Watching her feelings morph in real time was so crazy. Her love for her sisters mingling with her feelings for Futaro, only for her to realize it wasn't him, it was her. Oh. My. GOOOOOOOOD. And that confession scene???? Best confession in anime. I don't care. It's just the best. I got so hyped when she turned back around and said it again, and when she walked him down to get up in his face like "Well, that girl is me!" Peak fiction. This is the peak of her character, followed by her just running the series from there on. Season 2 was LITERALLY The Nino Show. DO YOU KNOW HOW CRAZY IT IS TO CARRY A SEASON FULL OF AMAZING CHARACTERS???? She's just in a completely different league. There is SOOOOOOO much more I wanna say, but the others matter too. SHE'S BEST GIRL AND SHE SHOULD HAVE WON.
Ichika
Another amazing character (from a writing standpoint). Her conflicts as far as morality goes are some of the most interesting points in the story. I love how she would do anything for Futaro, even snake around her own blood. Her constant ploys that seemed to work just built up more and more on her character, making it feel so much better when it actually came back to bite her. A character specifically made to be unlikeable is a risky path to take, but Ichika was executed perfectly. Her personal conflicts and responsibilities tie in perfectly with her snakey demeanor, further amplifying her compatibility with the character archetype they went for with her. Out of all 5 girls, she's probably the most realistic character.
Miku
Ok, here's where things take a bit of a turn for me. I like Miku's character. She fits in nicely as the only one who conceals her feelings, yet somehow always (pre Nino awakening) feels like she's in the lead. However. It got...repetitive. Annoying, even. Seeing her let all the other girls make moves when she'd liked him the longest was pretty frustrating. She held her feelings in for WAY too long (especially since her emotions became her entire character, another thing I don't like). Even now at the end, despite how long she simped over him, She NEVER fully confesses. The rest of the quints literally put their pride aside and set her up on a date, and she STILL doesn't fully confess. It's pretty unrealistic. I'd actually dislike her if it wasn't for the number of powerful moments she's the center of, but even that is somewhat overshadowed by her tendency to screw it all up. Her utter level of simping creates a flase level of disappointment with her not winning, even though she didn't deserve it and most people just feel bad that she was such a fiend but never ended up with him rather than thinking she was the best choice. Not a bad character, but definitely the worst and it isn't really close.
Yotsuba
Like most of the others, I think Yotsuba is a great character. Her dynamic in it all is great. On the surface she seems like another goofy ass airhead thrown into a romance, but as time goes on, we see more and more of her true self, and see that she IS self aware and DOES have a brain. The childhood friend thing is the driving point of her character (which is kinda unfortunate considering everything else she had going on, in a way she was both the perfect one to be the childhood friend and the worst), but unlike Miku and her feelings, it doesn't define her. She actually has conflicts and character development outside of being a fiend for a boy. But boy, was I ANGRY when Futaro chose her. Shape it any way you want, it's stupid to me. If ur gonna say she's bottled up her feelings this entire time...can you give us some typa hint beforehand? She showed no signs of interest in a romance anime where everyone is trying to get the same guy. I understand what they tried to do, but it was executed SO poorly. It didn't feel realistic, it didn't make as much sense as it should've, it really didn't even match up with previous feelings shown from Futaro, and many more. Bad ending.
Itsuki
Aaaaaaand Itsuki. I don't really have much to say here honestly. She's the least developed of all the characters. She's a static character, a character that feels fully fleshed out from day 1 and doesn't really progress much past that. She's really just a plot device imo, what with her being such a huge topic in the show despite doing so little. However, this is where being a static character backfires. Things she does feel less...meaningful. A scene where one of the female MCs is in the male MC's house should be "GASP!" but Itsuki feels more like "Oh, ok." Unexpected, but not shocking. This takes the impact out of many of her gestures, but besides that, she's pretty good a what she's there for.
Conclusion
I really love this anime y'all 😭Despite the flaws some of the characters have, they still all just mesh together so perfectly, it kinda washes the dislikes away. A deeper character analysis (like this one) is required to actually criticize anything, otherwise you'll just get caught up in the show. But yeah, that's it from me. Idc if no one ever reads this, this animanga holds a DEEP place in my heart and I'm gonna let it be known. So if you read this, tysm 🙏 10/10 anime, I'll watch it a million times over.
"The Bride (wife)"
Please change it to Yotsuba now that everyone knows it..... I don't know but kinda pisses me off not seeing yotsu but "bride" fu-kun's page....
Also technically they didn't get married yet right? it was a dream right? so fiance would be better
That's sussy, Ichika
I can't be the only one who absolutely adores the relationship between Raiha and Fuutarou, right? A healthy sister-brother relationship that's wholesome to boot? Never gets old. We can see throughout the manga (I haven't watched the anime) that Fuutarou is extremely motivated by his desire to give Raiha a proper life (though his motivation later expands into his friendship with the quintuplets).
---SPOILER WARNING--- (Why are you on a wiki discussion thread if you haven't finished the manga you fool?)
At the wedding timeskip, even as Fuutarou goes to marry Yotsuba, Raiha still helps him with the rings and remember them. He relies on her even when he's 22.
Additionally, Raiha gets along well with Itsuki Nakano, something that allows the two [, Itsuki and Fuutarou] to become closer through a mutual individual [, Raiha].
If ya'll see this, I wanna hear your opinions and thoughts on Fuutarou/Raiha the relationship (i.e. do you enjoy the dynamic? etc.).
Thanks!
Have you guys never thought of like Yotsuba dressing up as Itsuki and kissing Fuu-kun in the anime( I haven't read the manga yet but im planning to i just dont know where to read it lol) cause like the sisters dressed as Itsuki for their Grandpa, knowing that Yostuba is the only one that can run fast, Im guessing its really Yotsuba that Fuu-kun will marry. They might have just showed that Itsuki was the one that got married to Fuu-kun but maybe just maybe they showed us that so that we would think that its Itsuki but its actually Yotsuba.
(Idk if anyone thought of this lol cause this "theory" of mine couldnt let me sleep so I just had to say it here so that I would also know if people agree with me or if they thought if it also. Lol)
Only one episode to go be for the end season 2, with that in mind does anyone think that there will be a third season after this?
