♡ SetsuKasu Pocky Game - by esakigabriel ♡

[taperwolf]

So a Japanese YouTuber, hayato3046, decided to go through the whole of the second season of the anime for a "Skinship Ranking". Like, we have the impression that Yu gets touchy-feely with the other girls — but does she touch them more than they touch her? Well, here's the top ten touchers:

(Shioriko, Lanzhu, and Mia are included in the rankings but didn't make the top 10; Lanzhu was 11th at 15 points, and Shioriko and Mia tied for 12th at 11 points.)

The breakdown of who touched whom (plus further details from my own examination of the data) follows:

First, a machine translation of four rules that were considered when counting touches:

And here's the X touches Y data.

(These are organized with the touch-er down the side and the touch-er along the top; the fact that everyone's points are in their own color helps with the presentation.)

What this mostly makes clear is the degree of clustering involved. Ayumu gets her ranking mostly by touching Yu and, to a lesser extent, Setsuna — episode 5 really juiced her scores on both counts — while our winner Kasumi is pretty touchy with everybody, with bumps for her fellow first-years and her beloved senpai.

To be clear, hayato3046 considers these as largely asymmetric; if you consider, say, the sequence in episode 4 where Rina hugs Ai from behind, Ai doesn't also get a point until she pats Rina's head afterwards.

Which is why, for shipping data purposes, I combined these numbers to get us a top 15, summing touches each way among the XX pairings.

1) Ayumu x Yu: 47

2) Ayumu x Setsuna: 28

3) Karin x Emma: 26

4) Kanata x Emma: 25

5) Kasumi x Shizuku: 23

5) Kasumi x Kanata: 23

7) Kasumi x Rina: 22

8) Ai x Rina: 20

9) Karin x Ai: 18

10) Emma x Rina: 16

11) Kasumi x Yu: 15

12) Karin x Kanata: 13

13) Ai x Kanata: 11

14) Kasumi x Emma: 10

14) Shizuku x Kanata: 10

14) Shizuku x Rina: 10

And of course, here's the original video:

So there you go. We do see most of the firmly established pairings from the original Nijigasaki lineup here; the exceptions are the ones featuring R3BIRTH and the pre-SIFAS pairings of SetsuKasu, KariKasu, and KariSetsu from the Dengeki 4komas. (I suspect the R3BIRTH girls are so low in the rankings because the anime spent so many episodes on the other subunits.)

The whole list of 78 possible couplings — the combinatoric of (13 2), or 12+11+10+9+...3+2+1 — is too long to give in this post, but here's a Google Sheets spreadsheet of the data.

why is there more art of setsukasu when kanakasu has more potentialll

kasumin and setsuna only interact in like the first episode?

otptober 3: jello

setsuna's infamous cooking strikes again

[thrill-addict]

Setsuna : Yeah, when I was like ten years old, I kicked someone’s ass at the stupid sledding game on Club Penguin. They got mad after the eighth time and logged off.

Kasumi, dropping her fork : T-that was you?! I got banned for three months after cussing you out!

*The original club during a fight*

Kasumi: "Excuse me, Setsuna, but who made you the boss of us?"

Shizuku: "You did."

Kanata: "You said 'Setsuna should be the boss.'"

Emma: "You took a vote, and it was unanimous."

Shizuku: "Then you made her a little plaque that said 'Boss of Us' and put little sparkles on it."

Kasumi: "...valid points."

[fagopiro]

my favorite pairings from love live (except umiyou) first is from muse, second from aqours, third from nijigaku and fourth is a crossover between muse and aqours

[belphegor-xin]

3 ships:

nicomaki!!! (to nobody’s surprise)

As for the others..... I might have fallen for SetsuAyu (truthfully, AyuSetsu...) - so expect a spam of that kind of content!

For the third ship??? Idk?? My mind is flooded with NicoMaki and SetsuAyu content but if I look into my mental backlog of stuff to draw I do have AiRina and AyuKasu sitting around 🥰🥰 Also maybe SetsuKarin???

last song:

this is a fav (why I keep listening to it LMAO)

last movie:

I don’t think I’ve sat down and watched a movie in a really long time... I think I saw Jumanji: The Next Level with my coworkers a long while back? Without seeing the previous movie mind you so it was an alright experience.

currently reading:

I’m not really literate unfortunately 😔 so I’m not reading anything at the moment. Though last month I did binge read the jp novel “ I'm in Love with the Villainess“ which was mildly interesting? It took a kind of weird turn but overall it had fun moments in it.

currently consuming:

like food? like content? I can’t tell what this means!!! Erm, I had pan-fried barramundi with rice and soy sauce for lunch?

In terms of content I’ve been deep diving into Nijigaku 💖💖 - the bond stories are really nice I highly recommend them! I could probably talk all day about Setsuna, Ayumu and Yu at this point 😂 - I’ve become pretty familiar with their characters.

food I’m craving rn:

I just had lunch 10 mins ago... but let me check my chat logs

I may have been missing Coco curry from my japan trip LOL

I’m supposed to tag 9 people, but I’ll pass because the mental pressure of selecting people is too difficult for my feeble soul 😍
