[0901] Best Girl
└ posted on Thursday, 6 July 2017, by Novil
It’s a top secret project, led by Japan’s finest scientists. Hayao Miyazaki called the whole thing a big mistake, though.
- Ye Thuza: Sandra, I want you to know that I couldn’t imagine a better girlfriend for Cloud.
- Ye Thuza: Because you’re clearly best girl!
- Richard: Best… girl…??
- Ye Thuza: Unless, of course, the University of Tokyo succeeds in its endeavor to make anime real.
- Ye Thuza: In which case you’d only be third after Kurisu Makise and Megumin.
I fully approve Ye Thuza’s ranking, a full one should be officially published somewhere…
Eh, if anyone was going to be with Cloud and it’s not Sandra, I’d vote for Rika Nonaka from Digimon Tamers.
In before comments devolve into comparing waifus
But Mayuri is better girl than kurisu
Fourth after Chise.
Can someone explain this “joke” to those of us who don’t watch animé regularly?
I can’t wait for the next round of site polls.
Also it must be said, Ye Thuza has superior taste.
Huh. That’s a funny way to spell Ritsu Tainaka…

Don’t watch anime regularly, but I used to be a Brony. Best girl describes your favourite character. The two girls mentioned above are cute, young females. (What this means depends on your definition of cute and young. I prefer to use cute definition 1 or 3 and young definition 1.5).
Funny, next she’ll be calling her Cloud’s waifu.
So is Ye Thuza greenlighting sex? Or just bowing to the inevitable?

This.
Clearly. Rem is best girl (NOT Emilia)
None of this seems to have anything to do with lingerie. I guess Ye Thuza doesn’t care.

Lingerie still counts as clothes.
Reminder that Ye Thuza and Yuna are hardcore CloudxSandra shippers.

Wow she still ranks sandra in the top 5 when counting anime…..she really approves of Sandra, thats proof.
Oh great, Waifu Wars: Revengeance is out.

Is that an anime? I’d watch it.
i though Aeris and Tiffa would be #1 and #2…guess she went for regular “recent popularity anime girls”
I wonder if Sandra gets the reference, then…
Best girls
1. Megumin
2. Rem
3. Mizore Shirayuki
4. I can think of more, but you get the idea.
Hey, just want to point out that the transcript labels Richard as the “best… girl?” line, when it appears to be sandra saying it.
Repeat after me, everyone: Anime is trash, and so am I.
Bakuretsu, bakuretsu, la la la!
Herr Knörzer; excuse me, but if the Japanese “Anime to Reality” program is Top Secret then how did Ye Thusa find out about it? For that matter, how did you? Maybe the next knock on your door will be Japan’s version of Germany’s Bundeskriminalamt! Hope you have a large buffer just in case. 😉

Wait, anime ISN’T real? O.o
@ All-Purpose Guru:
So is Ye Thuza greenlighting sex? Or just bowing to the inevitable?
In comic 899, Ye Thuza told Sandra “Never have unprotected sex!” I’m sure she meant “…until you are married, you and your spouse want children, and you have decided that you are ready for children.” But that’s not so pithy.
In comic 900, Ye Thuza told a story (possibly made up, but I assume nothing) about spending a night with a boy when she was 15. The moral of the story was definitely not “never spend the night with a boy.” (By the way, I don’t think there’s any state in the USA that would allow Sandra to carry a concealed pistol before she’s 18, and I doubt Ye Thuza means Sandra should wait until she can carry a Desert Eagle.)
In comic 605, Ye Thuza told Cloud “If you get Sandra pregnant before she’s finished high school, I’ll separate your head from your body.” Notice that this is not the same thing as threatening Cloud if he has sex with Sandra; I’d take it as strong discouragement of unprotected sex, but “silence implies consent” on the subject of other sexy things that might happen between Sandra and Cloud.
Ye Thuza overall seems quite laid back and accepting of dating and possible sexy things. She is a stern taskmaster when it comes to forcing Cloud to train (see comic 178), but in most other things she’s downright relaxed. And Cloud seems to be able to tell her things… in comic 295, he told her when he had his first kiss with Sandra (and she complimented him and offered to buy him an ice cream sundae to celebrate). When I had my first kiss I did not discuss it with either of my parents.
In short, we have no reason to think Ye Thuza would be upset at all if Sandra and Cloud started having (protected) sex, and several reasons to think she would be cheering them on.
TL;DR She’s greenlighting sexy times that do not result in pregnancy or venereal disease.

No Nodoka? No Manako? What kind of best girl list is this?
@ Neospector:
Maybe they were number 4?
@ steveha:
Great analysis.
From what I remember, Richard is also an anime fan so I suspect that he would debate her choices, allowing him to forget about the outrage he felt. Sneaky.
Explooooooooosion!
Heheh, Konosuba reference. +1

Soo… Ye Thuza is a fangirl of Sandra? She probably reads sandra & woo regularly & voted for sandra in the polls? 😛
Both Kurisu and Megumin were alredy eliminated in anual best girl contest Best Girl 4

2 Haruhara Haruko

Most gun crimes happen where the laws are the harshest… Chicago…
When you ban guns, you are only making it harder for law abiding citizens to protect themselves and possibly others around them.
Ye Thuza has given Sandra her official approval.
She knows Cloud & Sandra will take it easy, and won’t go all out tomorrow.
I’m feeling a contradiction. If number 2 is Megumin, shouldn’t number 1 be Mayuri? Kurisu is too much of a contrast. Enough that you might as well throw Louise in between.
Also, as mentioned, wouldn’t Ye Thuza’s taste be more in the direction of Tifa? Barring that, Yuki Yuna, or at least Yang, should have been in her list.
@ TvTropesgotmehooked:yeah it is stupid when u dont ban most of the weapons in all of USA because it is to easy to buy it illegal in nearby state . Lets take a look in European countries, more Weapons means more gun violence.
Dont only look at ur country we have the internet and can easily proof that u only use 1 source of information.
and last i dont know why ur comment is on this site.
Yeaaaaaah. She spelled Hitagi Senjougahara wrong. Happens with everybody though. No problems.
@ TvTropesgotmehooked:
Well, and also when the Crown Point, Indiana gun show is literally a half hour outside Chicago proper; in a state with some of the most lax gun laws in the country. But I digress.
Ye Thuza believes in individual autonomy and the right for her children to make their own well-informed decisions. She’s not ‘green-lighting’ anything, she’s just expecting them to be responsible for their own actions. That’s probably in part because she had to grow up fast herself. She doesn’t want her children to grow up as she did; but she does want them to have their independence.

I think the only inaccuracy in this comic is that Ye Thuza is best girl, although she and Cloud would not be the OTP.

You’ve got that backwards. Harshest laws are passed where the most gun crimes happen.
What? She chose anime girls that I don’t know? Ye Thuza fall 5 places on my personal rating just now.
This makes Ye Thuza’s earlier praise of how good girlfriend Sandra is less flattering. What makes a great anime girl does not necessarily make a great girlfriend. This increases the chance she doesn’t know what constitutes a good girlfriend. Roughly, what she’s saying translated to following:
“I couldn’t imagine a better girlfriend for Cloud, but there’s a fair chance I don’t know what makes a good girlfriend.”
@ Crystalgate:
Yeah, ‘Best Girl’ trope and real world relationship qualities don’t really intertwine. But I’m sure she’s being fasicious here. Mostly, she’s just saying Sandra’s a better match for Cloud than the next closest competition, Larisa.
What will see say next?
I can’t anticipate anything Ye Thuza says or does,.
