Oh boy.

So Trickcal: Patima's trailer dropped, and I don't know if Ashur's Bakery is now a space empire or something but it appears every character is mandated to have jaw-dropping levels of cake.

We're talking Midna levels of sexy drumsticks here. It boggles the mind.

It's because Epid has somehow found a way to embrace the Freakcal Shibi Cex even more then they already do.

And god bless'em for it.

It’s beautiful. There have been mixed reactions to the fan service, but I’m happy for everyone to have options. We can have both a safe Trickcal and a spicy Trickcal.

This is actually one of the CGs from the visual novel. This one was also from one of the most depressing points in the novel. Poor Yuuko didn't deserve any of the suffering she got. ;-;

I'll regret asking, but what's the context? This looks very heartwarming.

This is a CG where Yuuko dreams of a future where herself, Yuu, and their not-yet-born baby living a happy life. Unfortunately, she's dreaming this as she dies after getting hit by an automobile in place of Miki. To keep it short and spoil as little as possible, Yuuko had already lived an incredibly depressing life thanks to her adoptive brother, and even after she and Yuu run off to finally live a happy life together, she dies before that can happen. I just found this incrediby sad since she's already suffered so much, and yet never got her happy ending. I remember seeing /a/'s Suffering Chart and agreeing that Yuuko would definitely be one of the top contenders for being in the top left corner, you can probably find this online (Yuu is the guy below Rika who's below Yuuko in the leftmost column in that chart).

If you're interested in Ef, it's like a darker version of Clannad (since both had their anime adaptations air at the same time for both seasons, so there was a fair bit of comparison between the two). I would say that unlike Clannad though, Ef focuses on multiple couples, so while I'd say family is the theme of Clannad, love is Ef's theme. It's also almost the perfect season to read/watch Ef, since it takes place around Christmas time.

Y'know, I'm kinda surprised shipping characters with their dedicated supports isn't more common (not counting the ones that actually are strongly associated in canon, like Laufer or Varcole). After all, people ship characters for far less. Where's all the Zibai x Linnea and Ineffa x Flins?
