Is it normal for an onee-sama and imouto to do this in yuri?
>>
>>288411488
Scratching an itch? Yeah sure. Just look how relieved she looks.
>>
you know the vast majority of yuri is gooner material for guys right
>>
Magical Girl Trial real yuri, or just super best friends?
>>
>>288411569
Most yuri is published in seinen magazine, but most isn’t porn. Plus: two yuri series explicitly for women sell more than yuri for guys combined
>>
>>288411718
I know Green Yuri, but what's the other popular yuri manga that actually sells?
>>
>>288411761
She Loves to Cook and She Loves to Eat
>>
>>288411718
>>288411761
>>288411847
First let's stop the retardation, I didn't know twitter was a explicitly for women platform, I know it looks like this because of the amount of men claiming to be women there, but regardless Kadokawa also does not sell Green manga under their josei label which they sell Tsukutabe and Koinega.

Second Tsukitabe had virtually no competition, every other josei work either flops hard or does not last long, at least Koinega seems to be selling tons of merch, though anecdotal evidence shows it in a lot of male otaku purchases, which also makes you wonder how much publishing under a josei label even matters for audiences like yuri, seems like having a fatso in the cover is a much more effective filter for the male demographic.
>>
>>288411986
>Kadokawa also does not sell Green manga under their josei label
It has a josei tag on Bookwalker. I also doubt that both would sell less of there was 2-3x as many josei yuri series.
>>
>>288411986
>vast majority of yuri is gooner material for guys
>no it's not, the most popular yuri aren't remotely like that
>wall of text asking others to stop their retardation that immediately derails into complaints about crossdressers on twitter before petering into some inane argument about how yes they're popular but for different reasons
Ok
>>
>>288411569
ok?
>>
>>288412099
So are Kuma Kuma Bear or The Office Lady Who Wants to Serve the Villainess, both just like Green manga are also not published in josei magazines.

>I also doubt that both would sell less of there was 2-3x as many josei yuri series.
Hilarious math considering how little of those are, you are talking about adding maybe 8 or 12 titles, how about you add instead 50 or 60 and see if there is a difference.

>>288412101
The word is not crossdresser it's tranny.

>official bookwalker tags don’t count even though that’s how more people would find the work rather than through the magazines
Of anything, adding more yuri series in josei magazines would increase the sales of those works because there would be more pipelines into the yuri genre. Either way, it’s an unprovable statistic on both of our endsz
>>
>>288412474
Well they are factually not published in josei magazines or under josei labels, unless you want to make the argument Kuma Kuma Bear and Green manga have the exactly same audience you will have to accept that bookwalker tags are not the statement you think they are. And I am pretty sure most people will find the work over twitter, than comicwalker or any other place where the work is available to read and the amount of people who go over bookwalker to directly search for works to buy is minimal in comparison.

>Of anything, adding more yuri series in josei magazines would increase the sales of those works because there would be more pipelines into the yuri genre.
Would it increase the number of consumers in the long run? Yes, but this is besides the point, our argument is whether those sales are directly affected by the low amount of titles and especially of popular titles for this audience not whether it's a net positive for the genre.
>>
>>288412359
I prefer the term "lily swine", thank you.
>>
>>288412612
Kitora is a digital-only magazine, so it’s not like it has a different tag that contradicts the bookwalker one.

>whether those sales are directly affected by the low amount of titles
Even if I accept your argument that they would decrease the sales, the total sales of yuri in josei magazines would outstrip the ones published in seinen magazines.
>>
>>288411718
Watanare is for guys and not only is the anime the most successful TV Yuri anime in the modern era, it's sold more than almost all yuri in recent years.
>>
>>288412794
Bold thing to say when in 20 years you only have a single popular title actually published under a josei label, even if I was generous and allowed you to consider Green manga one too, the market would take at a decade to grow to a point to eclipse 50 or so titles.

Watanare has a large female following both in Japan and the west.
>>
>>288412956
She Loves to Eat/Cook got a second season and sells more per volume than Watanare, although it is still pretty successful and mostly with guys.
>>
>>288413033
The Watanare movie screening was about 90% men and Watanare gets a lot of hate within the yuri fanbase just because a lot of it elements and structure appeal more to men than women.
>>
>>288413039
Why a guy would want to see a landwhale? Why anybody would want that?
>>
>>288413017
It’s factually true because if there was a Blue manga that took half of the sales of Green, it would still add up to the original sales amount.
>>
The problem is yuri for women don't get anime but goes to live action instead.
>>
>>288413076
Guys mostly didn’t. Its fanbase was probably mostly women who don’t consume that much yuri. In contrast, so think Watanare’s success half came from its popularity with the core yuri audience on top of the in roads it made with outsiders.

What are some red flags for you in yuri? Things that make you immediately realize what you're reading or watching is gonna be bad? I'll start with an easy one.
>bisexual girl is antagonistic or treated as a villain
Massive red flag that the writing quality is going to be subpar.
>>
>>288413083
Yes, but your audience at a given time will only be so big and have so much money avaliable, big titles bring new consumers and those don't show up often.
>>
>>288413068
If that’s true, it mean Ajisai won. I hope Teren stick to the Mai end
>>
>>288412956
I'm surprised you didn't include MahoAko.
>>
>>288413259
MahoAko is an ecchi show. The “yuri” is a side-effect of not allowing men to sulling the waifus
>>
>>288413284
You might as well say that about Watanare or all yuri published in seinen magazines, if you’re going to take the worst opinion.
>>
>>288413284
Why is yuri in scare quotes?
>>
>>288413343
Watanare is a genderbent otome

It’s not because it features as much fanservice of Renako and it does her love interest.

Bocchi is as yuri as Silent Witch

>>288413715

By this logic no ongoing manga is yuri if the girls haven't hooked up yet.
>>
>>288413153
Pretty much anything bisexual yeah. Anything involving bisexual people ends up being terribly written or a dramafest.
>>
>>288413850
Ongoing yuri manga at least focus on the relationships and build up to them. Bocchi does not, and it doesn’t look like it’s building up to that.

Akebi going full yuri was still a great surprise. We need more girls only stuff doing that

I think you're confusing that for BL.

Based on what I've seen, most Mahaoko fans don't give a shit about yuri, they only watch it because it's ecchi.
>>
>>288414117
Based on what I've seen you're a faggot.
>>
You can tell Watanare is popular with men because there's so much ai fanart of the girls getting fucked by random faceless guys.
>>
>>288414023
Everyone says this but if you rephrase it as
>we need more cgdct that take a decade to show their hand
you'll find no takers. Akebi is remarkable because it bridges generations of thought, you can't repeat that.
>>
>>288414170
well yea it's a harem yuri obviously it's going to be popular with men
>>
>>288414198
Would Watanare not be as popular if it had multiple pairings instead of a harem?
>>
>>288413917
So do you consider Kannazuki no Miko, which has a bisexual MC a bad anime?
>>
>>288414198
Most of that comes from people who don't give a fuck about the show, but still find the girls hot enough to masturbate to.
>>
>>288414234
Even outside of purityfags, people generally agree that the actual plot is non-sensical and the guy character was extremely forced.
>>
I don't care what you say. Unless the character says she is a bisexual she is always just a lesbian or lesbian-in-training.
>>
>>288414222
maybe but it would still be popular bc it's a bunch of big-boobed lesbian high school girls
>>
>>288414645
Shouldn’t all yuri succeed then?

I dont understand why the femoid hogs can't stay on /u/ so we can have comfy threads here.

>>288414260

It doesn't. The whole plot is that she doesn't love the guy at all and just goes along with what society telld her she should be feelong, because she has no context for what she is feeling for either, until she starts msking her own decisions. She is never bisexual.

The story beats you over the head with the fact she doesn't like him romantically. Chikane has to pressure her into going on the dates with him and every time Himeko keeps telling the viewer how she doesn't want to disappoint Chikane.
The ambiguity of her friendship feelings for Souma and her romantic feelings for Chikane beong confused by societal convention (expressed by Chikane in her insecurity) is the point.

episode 8 is definitely one of the better episodes. the awkwardness is handled much better than before, and it nails the anxiety of graduating college and facing job hunting. ibuki finally opens up to botan, while botan gets confronted by chinklan. the backstory was nice too
the chinklan vs botan confrontation in the bar is one of my favorite scenes. her introspective monologue about how aware she is of how absurd and dangerous botan is, only to blame the alcohol for saying it out loud, was perfect

It's obviously bait but one rebuttal I don't see brought up enough regarding the "male gaze" discussion is that it implies things for women are inherently more pure, not dirty like men, and in the process infantilizes women which wraps back around to misogyny. If a woman like Itou Hachi makes loli smut, it's okay because women are pure and untainted, but if a man does it, he's a pervert. It removes agency from women by pretending they can't also be massive perverts that like the same things.
>>
>>288424251
"male gaze" discussing should never be about one idividual, it's about media as a whole and how we protray women, it's a system encouraging it and reducing fictional women to sex appeal

Women are perverts too but in a different way from men. Men are more straight-forward about it and they're more disgusting too. Women seem harmless by comparison.
Though when it comes to asses, boobs etc lesbians definitely like the same. No lesbian would think less of artwork because it shows a pretty girl's ass. Unless she's trying to fit in a dumb group.

But you can't define what makes something "male gaze" or not. It's impossible. If you want to view media through the lens of the persistent objectification of women, you need to have a more focused critique than something nebulous like the "male gaze," which can't really be defined properly anymore. There's many examples of misogyny being promoted through media, but saying something appeals to men means absolutely nothing. It's a shallow critique for people that want to feel like they're better for not enjoying something; in other words, it's used (especially here and other yuri spaces) to virtue signal.

I was playing a game the other day. A girl was betrayed by her mentor and had to kill her. It was a sad scene, she tried everything she could to talk her down but there was no other option. After running a knife through her mentor's chest, she's crying for a while and the camera cuts super low and lingers on a pantyshot. Completely took me out of the moment. That's what the term "male gaze" was originally coined to describe. When the director assumes you're bored watching women if they're not being sexy. Detach yourself from the gendered phrasing, how nutjobs even in these threads try to doublespeak "for men" into bad and "for women" into good. There can be tasteless 4th wall breaking sex appeal that confuses the intent of a work.

Appealing to eroticism is not a thing exclusive to men. This is exactly what I'm saying: people act like women can't ever insert eroticism or fan service into their works without appealing to the "male gaze," implying they have no autonomy over their own sexuality and the way it's depicted in their works. Is tasteless fan service le bad? It depends on the context and if you enjoy it. Is it "male gaze?" No, it's not, and if you think that's something exclusive to men then you're just a misogynist repeating tired sexist rhetoric under the guise of feminism. There is nothing more inherently tasteful about the way women view and create media.

The left is a porn manga meant to jerk off to, the entire point is the erotic elements; everything else is just fluff. Similar to Asumi-chan, except Asumi has more of a semblance of a plot. The right is a pretty average yuri manga that happens to have sex in it, which is tame in comparison because it's not a manga that's solely for eliciting arousal. This isn't even mentioning the core problem of this kind of argument: cherry picking. Anyone can provide examples of a male author being extremely tasteful with their nudity or sex (or having none at all!), for example, Moke's AdaShima adaptation, and vice versa with a female author, like the aforementioned author of Asumi-chan, Kuro Itsuki. But you're not interested in any actual arguments; you just want to posture and pretend like you're any better for liking non-"male gaze" manga.

Most of her body is being shown at once. Men tend to fetishize specific body parts (e.g. tits, ass, midriff etc.) while women have a more holistic appreciation of women. When the shot excessively focuses on a specific part of a woman it's usually male gaze.

The fact that "male gaze" is basically straight feminists dictating to lesbian and bisexual women what they are allowed to find sexy is in fact a very common criticism. Alongside how it others women's sexual desires.
Thats why you will never find a sane person using it and its exclusively the domain of authoritarian freaks.

Both manga have multiple sex scenes, but as even you can tell, one of them clearly caters more to a certain audience. You are just dancing around the term "male gaze" because it's a SJW term.
We all know there are things men enjoy more than women, and since there are more male readers than female readers, many works play into that.
