Who did it better?

>unique artistic direction
>actual guts to go all out

Subtlety is worthless when addressing a topic such as this. It makes you look weakminded. Like you're baiting, which KusoAnus obviously is. Subtlety is important to lessons the audience is supposed to learn, for themes they are supposed to discover on their own. Not the sexual orientation of the characters. Doukyuusei is gayer and therefore better at what it does without pretending something it isn't. It's honest to itself and the viewer.

>bait vs actual gay
?

it's not "bait" since nozomi probably isn't gay/into mizori, see

>it's not "bait"
>probably isn't gay
Yes, yes. Not bait hehe.

People who use the word "bait" are not emotionally intelligent enough to discuss any form of media.

Being gay is mental illness. Liz is not about gay, but about adolescence (and telling gays to fuck off and get over it).

I am straight and I think Doukyuusei is one of the most romantic movies in the last couple of years.

Liz should have integrated better the tale of the bird with the story. Or maybe spent more time showing poignant/quiet moments of the girls individually or together.

>actually thinks that most works choose ambiguousness for any other reasons than to create debate from thin air
You don't seem to possess the necessary intelligence to understand soemthing as simple as basic business practices.

This one.

Dude, you can't use the words "Liz" and "subtlety" in the same sentence. The movie is extremely pedantic, both in its use of the Liz and the blue bird metaphor (first told at the beginning, then across the movie, then with the two characters noticing how it reminds them of themselves, then with them discussing it with the counselor and classmates) and in constantly calling attention to the behaviour of the characters (I'd kill myself if I had to drink a shot at every close up of Mizore's eyes being jittery, of her hand touching her hair, of her eyes fixated longingly at Nozomi, etc )

It's just a phase. Tomboy is my wife.

>I am straight
Stopped reading right there, gayboy

my main problem with the storybook subplot was that it presented the events as these things that HAVE to happen and you have no choice otherwise you're a selfish dick. the ideal situation would be something in between the two options.

Liz, like it's not even close. Liz is art and Dokyuusei is just a nice movie. However they don't even share the same genre (drama vs romance) so why are you comparing them?

>entire movie is from the point of view of a girl so in love with her best friend she kisses her gifts, desperately wants to hug her, watches her hair and skirt movements all day, and constantly gives her longing looks
I’d say that counts as a romance film even though it’s probably unrequited. Certainly more of a romance than Koe anyway

>liz
>not romance

Mizore however, was definitely in love with Nozomi

where is that from, user?

I need to rewatch it, it was cute as fuck.
