Unrelated to The New Future, but since you like the Hinanami (Hajime/Chiaki) pairing and since their English voice actors are Johnny Young Bosch and Christine Marie Cabanos, you might also enjoy an anime called Hi Score Girl, which recently got a Netflix release. Bosch voices the male lead Haruo Yaguchi, and Cabanos provides the "grunts" for the mute female lead Akira Oono. The anime is a romantic comedy about a boy and a girl who meet in an arcade as rivals, but their relationship grows deeper.
Ooooh, sounds interesting and cute! Thank you, I’ll be sure to check it out.

You remind me of Yaguchi Haruo from high score girl because of your knowledge of fighting/retro games
Woah, High Score Girl? It's been like 5 years since I really thought of that manga. I really loved how accurately games like Street Fighter 2 and Final Fight were represented. That manga is absolute gold for retro arcade game fans.
I even have an Oono Nendoroid!
Tumblr media
This thing was going for like over $80 at the time, but that year I went to Japan and found the same Nendoroid in Japan for like 4,000 yen. It was a total steal, so I bought it on the spot.

((Unrelated, but to the mod, if you enjoyed Johnny Young Bosch and Christine Marie Cabanos' performances as Hajime and Chiaki, you might enjoy an anime called High Score Girl, which got a dub on Netflix. Bosch voices the male lead Haruo Yaguchi, and Cabanos provides the "grunts" to the mute female lead Akira Oono. It's a romantic comedy anime about a boy and girl who meet in an arcade and get off to a rocky start, but gradually learn to expand their horizons. So it combines romance and gaming.))
//Sounds cute ^^

Hi-Score Girl - Um compilado de referências clássicas a videogames
Hi Score Girl é um mangá de autoria de Rensuke Oshikiri, que retrata as jornadas de três adolescentes apaixonados por videogames, enquanto eles desbravam a evolução nos videogames e a competição nos fliperamas em plena década de 1990 e, paralelamente, vivenciam a amizade, amor e amadurecimento; Hi Score Girl tem diversas referências clássicas e easter eggs relacionados ao mercado de jogos eletrônicos, como por exemplo, Final Fight, Darkstalkers e Ghosts ‘n Goblins, franquias elaboradas pela Capcom. Haruo Yaguchi, por exemplo, se intitula como “Beastly Fingers”, uma clara alusão a um dos maiores ícones dos games de luta, Daigo Umehara, um pro player da comunidade de jogos de luta, mais conhecido como “The Beast”. Enfim, é um manga/anime interessante, mas ele quase foi barrado judicialmente pela SNK por certas questões legais envolvendo The King of Fighters, o ganso dourado da empresa, e Samurai Shodown.

When Will Hi Score Girl Season 3 Release Date ?
Tumblr media
Hi Score Girl is an anime series that focuses on romantic comedy. It was released in 2018. This anime is broadcast on Netflix and takes us back to the 1990s. The first two seasons were closely followed by nostalgia and fans of old games. Based on Rensuke Okikiri's manga series, the series is now animated. J.C. produced this critically acclaimed anime series. J.C. produced this critically acclaimed anime series. The staff, whom we all know from series such as Food Wars! and One Punch Man were animated by SMDE. The series originally aired on Tokyo MX and MBS channels. It was then broadcast in English by Netflix. The second season of this series was broadcast worldwide on Netflix on April 9, 2020. Now, Netflix is curious about the third season. Is Netflix renewing the series for a Hi Score Girl season 3? WHAT IS THE PLOTLINE FOR HI SCORE GIRL? Yaguchi Haruo (6th grade) was a gaming addict and lived in the '90s. Haruo, a student with poor school grades and who lives a very normal life, finds it irrelevant to spend his time at the arcade. He lost to the mysterious opponent at the end of the day after eliminating all his opponents in the best game he could play. Oono Akira is the class's most beautiful, popular and wealthiest girl. Haruo and Hidaka Koharu will be entangled in the game world's adventures that began here. There were many games that were popular in the 1990's like Final fights and Street Fighter 2. The anime, which featured the music and images of arcade consoles like TurboGrafx-16, Virtual boy and arcade halls, attracted the attention of gamers and nostalgia lovers. WILL THERE BE A THIRD SEASON OF THE ANIME? At the time of writing, J.C. Staff and Netflix have not yet renewed this series for a season. It can sometimes take many years for anime to be refreshed for a new season. This is something we're used to in the anime industry. It is possible to consider the last season of the series relatively recent, as it aired on Netflix in April 2020. We expect a renewal announcement or cancellation of a new season to be made soon. We can speculate on key factors until then. Our evaluation will include subtitles on manga status, disc sales, and popularity. MANGA STATUS OF ANIME We mentioned that Hi Score Girl is a manga series written and illustrated originally by Rensuke Okikiri. Square Enix published the manga between 2010 and 2018. The manga series was finished in September 2018 and has been discontinued. It consists of 63 chapters and 10 total volumes. As we mentioned, the anime series follows the manga series. The first season covers the first four volumes of the manga. The second season ended with 10 volumes completely adapted for the anime. A second season of this series is unlikely if we consider the source material. A sequel is nearly impossible if there is no source material. THE POPULARITY AND USE OF THE ANIME Even though the series didn't sell enough discs (BluRay and DVD) in its first two seasons, there are other factors that should be taken into consideration. Netflix streaming makes it a profitable business, with the exception of disc sales. If it is popular enough, of course. We see that anime is popular at 69.4%. This score is sufficient to warrant a second season. The anime has an IMDb score of 8.0 and was voted on by 1483 viewers. The possibility of an anime third season seems very likely when we consider its popularity. Hi Score Girl Season 3 Release Date The second season of this anime had a twist, and fans are eager to see what the third season brings. We will be covering everything you need to know about the show, including the release date. Keep reading until the end. Although season 3 has not been officially announced by the producers of the show, it is likely that we won't get to see season 3 of this beloved anime series. This is because season 2 of this show has already covered all of the manga source material. There is more. Mangaka started a spin-off in the year 2019. This spin-off is set in the future. It revolves around Koharu hidaka, a teacher who is 30 years old. Fans shouldn't be surprised if Rensuke Oshikiri takes up the pen to write the final story in this manga version. The possibility of this anime having a third season is slim as the main story has ended. Unless the makers decide to spin-off the anime, there is no way to finish the third season. Season 3 of Hi Score Girl Characters Season 3 of Hi Score Girl This is an animation work so we don't have any actors. However, we do have voice artists and animated characters who voice these characters. Haruo Yaguchi, a boy, is not very attractive. He is also not good at academics and is not an athlete. Gaming is his only true talent. While playing a video game, he met Akira Ono. He regards her as his rival. Haruo meets Akira Ono when he is playing Street Fighter II. Ono Zaibatsu's daughter, she is wealthy, well-known, and multi-talented. She is subject to a lot restrictions at home, so she uses her talents and plays there. Although she doesn't like speaking, she formed a strong bond with Haruo. Both Sayumi Suzushiro and Kohei Amasaki voiced the characters. Other characters include Koharu Hidaka and Kotaro Miyao as well as Genta Doi and Moemi Goda. Hi Score Girl Season 3 Story The episode is set in 1991, when arcade video games are a huge obsession. Haruo Yaguchi is disillusioned and wants to follow the same path. Akira beat him in Street Fighter 2 and he gained a lot confidence and pride. Akira, on the other hand is beautiful, rich, and multi-talented. They develop a romantic relationship slowly. If the makers decide to continue with the third season, it is likely that the story will center around Hidaka, who will be learning more about herself. In the future, we might find out what happens to HaruOno. The last season ended with a statement indicating that they were embarking on a new adventure. We would love to see what happens. Trailer for Hi Score Girl Season 3 The makers have decided not to renew season 3. There is no trailer or teaser for season 3 on YouTube. You can watch the trailer for season 1 on YouTube. You can view the trailer by clicking the link above. The trailer will open. The trailer can be viewed on Netflix. Premium users have access to the full anime. There's a link to the full show. We'd love to hear your thoughts about the anime and the third season in the comments section. Read the full article

Hi Score Girl - Turtling Forward
Tumblr media
“Both you and the video games industry keep moving forward. It’d be pretty lame for me to be the only one getting left behind, right?” - Yaguchi Haruo to Akira Oono
Let’s get this right off the bat - getting into a competitive activity isn’t for everyone. Yes, the joy when you win against someone better than you after a lot of hard work is second-to-none. However, the journey is filled with a lot of losses along the way. If someone has the “win at all costs” mentality, the chances of them quitting a competitive activity they partake in are high.
Those losses are lessons that Rensuke Oshikiri’s Hi Score Girl emphasize through the eyes of teenagers who are into fighting games at their arcade scene - lessons in moving forward.
Hi Score Girl takes places in the early ‘90s (a time period where the creative potential of video games was high) and is about a boy named Yaguchi Haruo, who’s noted to be one of the toughest Street Fighter II players in his local arcade scene. Haruo meets his match in a girl (and fellow elementary school classmate) named Akira Oono, who looks very refined to hang out in arcades. After a physical altercation, the two spend more time with each other and grown to respect each other as rivals. After Oono briefly heads to Los Angeles, the two reunite years later in junior high when Oono comes back to attend Haruo’s school. Hints of romance start to emerge as Haruo thinks about being able to share new video game experiences with Oono all while dealing with the affections of another girl who’s interested in him and another fellow fighting game enthusiast/competitor/classmate, Koharu Hidaka.
I think about how hard it is to move forward in life. People, the world, life - things continuously disappoint us. We think we have things in control, but we get reminded the hard way that we don’t. For me personally, I could count the many times I just wanted to sleep and not want to do anything during my younger days. I was so afraid of getting hurt that I didn’t want to expose my vulnerabilities to anyone.
Haruo gets stuck for a bit after not being able to attend the same high school as Oono. He laments his frustration as he studied hard despite being known as a slacker in his studies through his school life. Then Hidaka starts to wipe the floor with him in fighting games after years of watching Haruo play. Hidaka would later admit her feelings to Haruo and challenges him to a fighting game match. If she won, Haruo would have to go out with her.
It is then where Haruo decides to start heading forward for Oono’s sake. Oono was dealing with private lessons from a strict tutor and responsibilities of living up to her family’s reputation, so Haruo realized he needed to take life seriously in order to be as equal as her. He started to develop an early morning routine, take his part-time job seriously, and help his mother around the house. 
I know people are told to believe in themselves, but it takes other people to tell them that. I would argue that a support system is what truly gets someone moving forward. All Haruo really wanted in life was someone to talk about video games with that shared the same passion and also feel like himself while doing so. Over time, those feelings of belonging would make him want to do something for Oono. He starts to realize what was holding him back.
There’s an inner monologue (with references to male heroes of side-scrolling arcade games) from one of Haruo’s main fighting game characters, Guile of Street Fighter II fame, while Haruo trains for his battle with Hidaka.
“Haruo!! You’ve grown, Haruo! You’re such a straight-forward man. You charged forward like a Sonic Boom! Look! Why does he fight? Why does he keep going down his hellish path? Why has he set out on a perilous journey? Him too. And him. They all go straight forward. And do you know why!? It’s all for the people most important to them.
Even if they are beaten black and blue, even if they die...still they press on! Giving everything you’ve got for someone else is what makes you a man. Battle is heartless. But you can’t afford to lose!!
Gods are stingy. But in the end, the flower of love blossoms! Go, Haruo. Charge alongside them!”
Maybe we just need someone to push us while still being a loving person. Life’s not fun without rivals or things to chase after. That’s why you have many resources/activities because we all have inner motivations that aren’t easily addressed, much less understood. But what happens as Hi Score Girl goes on, the rivalry between Haruo and Oono evolves into companionship. Their companionship starts to heal many emotional wounds and unlocks their potential to be good people. Even with mental health professionals out there, those close to us or fan community members are the ones who truly understand your culture. That kind of love goes a much longer way than therapy can in most instances.  
Seeing the connections between Haruo/Oono/Hidaka show how powerful shared experiences really are. Emotions are displayed and bounce around the three of them. They are kids who are evolving in the right way even if their love of games is frowned upon by most adults. I feel like there’s way too much talk on differences (in the case of Hi Score Girl, gender) and not enough on the collective experience of group members.
That experience is what truly gets people to move forward to a world of joy like the world of arcade games/video games has provided for all audiences (male/female/LGBTQ+) for as long as gaming has been around - together.

Anime name: Hi Score Girl
Genre(s): Romantic Comedy
Lauren’s Like Rating: 8/10 (At first I flat out disliked this series because of the art style and characters, but it really grew on me. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next if more episodes are made, and if so, it’s likely I’ll raise my rating again, it already went up a point after the 3 episodes added since I first wrote this post.)
Character (s): Haruo Yaguchi, Kotaro Miyao, Makoto Ono
Haruo Yaguchi has only one passion in life: gaming. He spends all his free time in the arcades and anywhere he can find a game. He is surprised and at first horrified to discover that popular girl Akira from his class not only plays in ‘his’ arcades, but she’s also easily as talented as he is. He slowly loses some of his arrogance and bonds with her over their shared passion for gaming. He’s actually a caring guy (towards one person in particular), despite his arrogance and obliviousness.
Kotaru Miyao has been Haruo’s best (guy) friend since middle school. He’s much more popular with girls than his friend, and more aware of peoples’ feelings, as he notices the love triangle Haruo is oblivious about being in. He also enjoys arcades, though not as much as Haruo. He tries to help Haruo and gives him good advice.
*Spoiler warning ahead*
Makoto Ono is Akira’s older and wilder sister. She rebelled when she was younger and her duties as family heir were dumped on Akira, who also wound up with even worse rules as a result of Makoto’s actions. As a result, Makoto does whatever she can to help and improve things for Akira. She can clearly see how much Haruo and her sister love each other and teams up with him to help Akira. She also likes games, as she was playing Mahjong when she met Haruo.
I do not own anything!
