Well, different anon.

All dump methods have their downsides, vertically very few pages fit into one column, so you absolutely need two, and jumping between them gets really annoying on mobile. But I see that scrolling sideways isn't exactly a normal operation on desktops usually.
(No such problem though when you're using keyboard browsers/mostly use shortcuts, but most people likely don't)
Making it a video is probably even more annoying.
Maybe I'll try a few things, but unless someone has a brilliant idea, something just has to give

Are you trying to be obnoxious? Both series revolve around the intimate relationship of women, even Murcielago which has a lot of other shit mixed in still revolves most arcs around (very explicit) relationship between women.

It's not a deal breaker anon, this is what you seem to have issues understanding, the point is that it isn't something relevant enough to point it out anymore, I have been in this phase 2 decades ago, eventually you will realize how cringe this is.

It's amazing you are even trying to make this argument as if sex and intimacy are not important parts of romance, being in love and being romantic are different things. Though I recommend you actually start reading Murcielago, many arcs revolve around love, not only sex, between women, even if it does not involve the protagonist or at least not yet.

We already watched the movie, we know it doesn't confirm anything, you are making a pointless argument here, did you forget we are not talking about the movie? We are talking about how the director describes it and you know very well this since you were using his words to say it was just friendship, meaning you were dismissing the interpretation it was romance in nature.

However as I said, you are trying to fight the meaning of the word overt, which in this context outright states the interpretation there are romantic elements is the only correct interpretation and not up to interpretation, there is a reason the opposite word is covert after all, meaning it's there but not in the open.

Unless either one of us provides stats, both are an empty statement.

Overt means confirmed. No overt romance means romance can't be confirmed. You are trying to twist it to mean no overt romance means there is unconfirmed romance, which sounds similar but fundamentally means something different. Does the inability to confirm God's existence mean there is an unconfirmed God? You are doing mental gymnastics.

Correct, however the point being made is that your understanding of those tropes is what is nonsensical and this is why I said you have a hundred or so works that tried and it didn't work, just like you also have a hundred all lesbian main characters yuri series that tried it and it didn't work out.

>your understanding of those tropes is what is nonsensical
My understanding lines up pretty well with what the data bares out. Just as I can tell you that making an romance with NTR will generally be less popular than a romance with no NTR, I'm arguing that stories with all-female casts will be less popular than ones without them.

Also, I love UraPi, but I would love for it to go deeper into small combat operations and stuff like that.

Friendship doesn't preclude romance, which the author didn't deny. There was also a time before that interview came out when you were very likely arguing it wasn't romantic already, so the author's opinion is irrelevant to yours.

>>286658240
This line of thinking is trying to imply an implicit confirmation where none exists. If I say there are no overt signs that God exists, this doesn't imply there is an unconfirmed God because that itself is a confirmation. All that's being said is that God can't be confirmed.

It's about the gargling scene, they explained it in an earlier interview. Kaguya falls in love with Iroha at first sight not because of the typical human notion of love, but because she's entranced by Iroha as a human being despite Iroha doing something as mundane as gargling.

Suspension of disbelief is based on the genre norms and expectations. Even though Frieren is a setting with magic, it would still break most of the audience's suspension of disbelief if the next arc dealt with someone who was isekai'd from another world with a cheat power, even though all of those things are technically possible within the framework of any magical fantasy setting.

>it's not usual for boys and girls to interact like this in japanese society unless they were close from childhood or are in a relationship
As I said above, it's based on genre expectations. Despite being it being so weird according to you, read most straight romances. They have plenty of platonic interactions between opposite sexes when the MC interacts with a guy/girl outside of their main love interest. People expect that fiction will have these elements even if they aren't completely realistic.

I see, so jumping from a romance series to fantasy like Maid Dragon (which you also claim to be a romance series) does not break any suspension of disbelief, but jumping from a romance series to another romance series without fantasy elements but a few lesbians grouped together is suddenly a big shock that shatters all reality, while at same time people being teleported to fantasy worlds from earth is a common trope but would utterly make people suddenly find Frieren of all things unwatchable, even though the guy Frieren is still seething she didn't fuck would fit like a glove in a reveal he was a reborn fellow from earth.

You can combine both fantasy and romantic elements in the same series. Dragon Maid establishes from the beginning that there are fantastical elements.

This is a strawman of what I said. People expect that characters in fiction will interact with both sexes, whether it's realistic of not. If it's unrealistic for girls/guys to be friends, maybe the problem with yuri is that it's TOO realistic for fiction and thus makes it unappealing the average person.

This is just you assuming what people are expecting from watching a series about two women being in love would be about.

And no, you have popular romcoms where the girls don't interact with any other guy who isn't family and the only guy they are interacting is the one they are in the process of getting in a relationship after 20 volumes, this is hardly an unknown concept, actually the whole "childhood friend" trope exists specifically to be the exception to justify instances where a boy and a girl would be interacting in a more platonic way, aside from the fact the girl is always in love with him anyway.

I havent seen Kaguya, but i know enough to know Iroha has a Yaya friend that is literally in love with her, and basically gives up on her feelings to help Iroha reunite with Kaguya.

>>
>>286660980
I don't think it's a yuri problem. An average person esp straight men, your usual boomers etc. being averse to watching a romance featured between two or more women is given, a 5 sec screen time of a girl interacting with a guy or a father appearing isn't the missing ingredients to it. Most lesbian and it's core audience definitely ain't thirsting for that either, so it's not surprsied that some author don't bother with it.

Even in something like Nagatoro or Sono Bisque, you have plently of scenes where Marin/Nagatoro's friends interact with Gojo/Naoto, even though they aren't trying to actively seduce him. Hell, there's even a trap cosplayer who Marin is friends with.

>this is just you assuming what people are expecting from watching a series about two women being in love would be about
It's based on both sales comparison and anecdotal evidence, yes. Just like how I can say that NTR elements in romance tend to make them less popular, which is a pretty uncontroversial statement. And again, it's against my personal preference; I actually prefer series with all-female casts. So it's not like I am trying to project my tastes onto another group of people.

I am not talking about the audience that would never watch yuri in the first place. My comparison is between the sales of the best selling yuri romance series (YagaKimi, Citrus, Green Manga) and the next most popular yuri romances (Sasakoi, Watanare, and Watayuri). The difference is sales is at least two times as much, so I want to see what accounts for that fact. It can't all be money/marketing, because Citrus was published in the same manga as the Sasakoi/Watayuri, and Green Manga was already popular before Kadokawa even touched it. Remember that it won that the Next Manga Award poll by fifty thousands votes less than year after it started.

Mato Slave is very interesting because it has Yuri subtext elements despite having Hetero harem plots.

>>286661382
Correct, but you yourself already gave the context, the only reason they are interacting with him is because they know Nagatoro or Marin are interested in them, they are not interested in begin friends with him and the only ones who always are, are romantically interested in the protagonist, those series are the perfectly example of how limited male and female interactions are in Japanese society, see for example the popular girl in Oregairu, the only reason she is there is because she wants the dick of the popular guy.

You keep saying this, but most stories like this keep struggling the same way most stories which are not like this are also struggling the same.

I think that there are other reasons (artstyle, speed of the romance, similarity to more classical straight romance tropes, etc.), but the prescene of men is a non-trivial factor. The entire first chapter of YagaKimi is all about Yuu/Touko dealing with confessions from boys and the first chapter of Citrus has that infamous straight kiss. Do you really think that YagaKimi would be just as popular if it took place at an all-girls school and Touko was juggling confessions from countless different girls? You can disagree (because it's untestable), but I don't think so.

>most stories like this keep struggling the same way most stories which are not like this are also struggling the same.
Most stories struggle in general. But the reason why is because the hardcore yuri audience prefers certain tropes compared to the casual yuri audience. Just look at how people here complain about Love Bullet's second arc focusing on a straight couple. Hardcore yuri fans want to see lots of yuri whereas I've never seen a casual fan complain about that arc. Making a work that appeals to a casual yuri audience is risky because there's less of a chance that they'll see it and hardcore fans won't be as interested. Like Teren said in most recent interview, you need to thread the needle between pandering to both the hardcore/casual or outside fans of a genre.
>>
>>286661801
Yes because i doubt people even remember those men anyway, If Yuu turned down her female classmate/childhood friend nothing will change, Touko rejecting girls doesn't really change much cause of her reasons, The most popular character of that series was contemplating because of said reasons. Citrus became popular because of the allure of step-sister being on a relationship at that time, If Mei was kissed by a female teacher people would proabbaly accept that Sabu was a women from the start.

Competition, you already have been told this, it's very simple, Citrus and Yagakimi cannibalized the sales of the growing yuri audience of the time because we rarely had works that were not angst narrative but straightforward romances and also works that were as well draw, meanwhile Green manga is an exception for most of the market, how many popular twitter manga you know of?

>Yes because i doubt people even remember those men anyway
There are lots of small factors that influence your decision to continue reading things because they set the expectations of what is to follow. People will often remark that the difference between bog-standard fantasy and isekai is the first five minutes, yet introducing isekai in your story has a huge perception on how your story is judged.
>>
>>286662136
Green Manga was an immedieate success because of it's two character interacting from the start not because it set the tone of them interacting with some men.
>>
>>286662113
Lots of manga are published digitally with the (most recent) chapters easy to read on online websites. But to give a counter-example, Tadokoro-san was published digitally and it wasn't as popular as Green Manga.

>so did "how to get together with my childhood friend"
It lasted to five, which is better than average, but ultimately it didn't draw in the support of either a huge casual or hardcore audience. I also don't remember many interactions with men after the first chapter.

I think the artstyle had to do more with its success than the mere fact they interact with each other. The fact that the MC fell for what she thought was a guy also cuts against the yuri grain.

We were arguing none of this because we were talking about how japanese society see those relationships and which works reflect those. You will have a hard time finding grounded works with no token interactions whatsoever.

No, most stories struggle because the yuri audience is just small and the "casual yuri audience" or whatever you want to call people who don't usually buy yuri never hears about them, how many people even knew Watanare existed before the anime? How many people you think would have know of the series if it was published in Shonen Jump instead?

In general, none of them are as popular as green manga, even much more popular concepts, because it's unusual.

They are always interacting with them, even if they are not directly talking with them.

>>286661985
>whereas I've never seen a casual fan complain about that arc.
Yeah Imagine Matsuri having a token male love interest, Sayaka dating a guy before she realizes she's gay. I',m sure that what your casual yuri audiences would love it more
>>
>>286662405
Because success is a mixture of both content and exposure. Green Manga succeeded because it had the right content and managed to get a huge non-yuri audience to notice said content. When you make your series look and read no different from any other yuri manga, casual fans don't become interested because they've already seen this.

>>286662549
>whatever you want to call people who don't usually buy yuri never hears about them
I agree that this is the problem. But once the audience learns about them, the series actually has to convince them to pick it up. Watanare did so because it appealed to a group of haremfags who usually don't read yuri. It was the content (whether artstyle/plot/characters).

>>286662636
>I',m sure that what your casual yuri audiences would love it more
They probably would have, but the hardcore audience would have hated it, so the balances would be counter-acted. You have to cleverly appeal to both at the same time, which is why success on the content front is so rare.

Speaking of Nana, imagine an actual yuri series getting a figure like this.
>>
>>286663415
Is this yuri.
>>
>>286663596
>Is Nana yuri
Do you really need to ask this question in 2026? The answer is obviously no.
>>
no but i see why yuri fans might like nana because its focused on women protags and their relationships and the authtors likes to tell you about the girl in highschool who made her haert go dokidoki more than any male ever did but no homo

Nana is the ultimate example of those het shoujo series where you wish the mc would just end up with her female friend but to actually include it in the yuri genre is just evil.

The main characters are both in heterosexual relationships and I’m pretty sure one of them had a couple kids. I don’t really remember. It’s been on hiatus for almost two decades so even if it does ever come back it ending in yuri is going to feel just the same as any other yuribait

Your obsession with thinking you "win" means you're coping with all the pathetic failures in your life.

Your faggot obsession with men's assholes is not trolling, and the way you use the word "break" is 100% unique. No one else spams short autistic "break over" posts like you.

This is why it's obvious you are obsessed with "the last word" and the people who reply to you are not. Because you are just spamming any random thing you can to try and "trigger" people. While other people are talking about your behavior.

Really, you are so mentally ill it's unreal. How do you live like this? You are literally consumed with trying to get "the last word". Just stop acting badly and trying to attack other posters. That's all this has ever been about.
