I wouldn't say that, apparently the novels end 100% straight for both the girls so it would hardly be surprising if the series does too. Admittedly KyoAni also has a history of changing up poo poo in their LN adaptions and things seem a bit gayer in the series so far, especially with the ED for context, but it's not like there's no precedent. Would make all these hints otherwise kinda weird but it's not like anime doesn't have a long history of all kinda subtext going nowhere anyway. At least either way there is brass band shenanigans to enjoy!

AFAIK Kumiko does end up with Shuichi in the novels. It's seemingly not built up that much there either, but it's more understandable anyway because A: Shuichi has a bigger presence in the novels I believe, and B: a lot of the Kumiko/Reina interactions in the anime is original material apparently. Now, adding so much Kumiko/Reina stuff instead of building up to romance with Shuichi seems weird if they're just gonna re-tread the same romance. However, Hazuki having a thing for Shuichi is apparently still a thing in the novels though, so that subplot in and of itself doesn't indicate that the anime staff is planning to pair him off with her. And Kumiko/Reina still have lots of subtext/tension in the novels too, despite each getting paired with someone else (As a side-note, Reina gets paired with the teacher which, eeeeeewww. I'd hope they change things up just for that). E: Sorry, I didn't really think about random romance stuff as spoilers I guess.

Was a very nice episode indeed. Cheered for side-couple. Was almost expecting a kiss at the end, was slightly let down, but the previous scenes were very good so it'd be dumb to hold that against it. Sapphire sister was very cute.

I never finished Tamako or watched the movie but Tamako was so childish any romance with her would be an uncomfortable prospect tbh.

Nate RFB posted:I was going to say that Euphonium was the first original KyoAni story that they seem to have gotten right, but nope it's based on a novel/manga/whatever. Regardless I like this show and don't think it really matters who if any the main character ends up with. I disagree, as Shuuichi's interactions with Kumiko makes for the most boring run-of-the-mill LI for every generic manga/anime romance story created, while Reina's are Cool and Good. That's my opinion.

Phobophilia posted:http://a.pomf.se/ntbmqs.webm Hell if you compare it to the closest KyoAni analogue, Mochizou blows Shuichi out of the water personality-wise, and just plain in how entertaining he is on the screen interacting with the rest of the cast. And he's also present from the start rather than being mostly irrelevant until halfway through the series.

There was an interview with the series director where she very frankly rebuffed the idea that there's anything romantic between Kumiko and Reina hereInterview posted:Oguro: After episode 8 huh? It’s not yuri, but they’re tied together with a red string so… They won't kiss

Its okay, episode 8 was more romantic than any actual animated romance in forever even though apparently it wasn't supposed to be at all, so if they actually tried to do romance it'd probably end up as generic stuttery blushing anyway. Once you convince yourself of this there will be no more sadness.
