Which is one enemy studio i need to be aware of when checking for yuri anime?
>>288506636KyoAni
>>288506572act on their intrusive thoughts
When do we start getting Kaguya clones
I wonder what our HDFbros think about this. Or are they a bunch of newfags who don't even know about this.
>>288506730>How to do an axe speedrunI heard the author went to work on Blue Reflection Ray, no surprise there
>>288506803Blue Reflection Ray was okay, zero budget aside.
>>288506803More like No Blu Reflection Ray, amitirite?
>>288506461>>Yunico who never writes any actual yuri>blocks your path
>>288506839Subtext at best
>>288506803But the original web series is yuri, so you can't criticize the author for being a retard and anyone who does so is the same person.
Don't you hate it when people call a series yuri, when it clearly isn't and they know it isn't yet keep doing it and drawing fanart and using them for pride while neglecting actual yuri? The fucking worst
>>288506803>axeLiterally cancel culture.
>>288506888Not really as long as it's cute.
>>288506858Is this your standard for subtext?
>stumble across the teacher x jk manga>read it cause I seen it mentioned herereally, playing catch??
>>288506862Irony aside, I actually blame the publisher for this fiasco and when threw the kid under the bus he said the worst thing he could have said under pressure and then the next day the publisher canceled it.
>>288506929More detailed QRD?
>>288506888>prideAnyone who does pride art needs to get stoned to death. Yuri Sharia laws can't come sooner enough.
>>288506916Not used to Iruma works I presume
>>288506914They didn't end up in a relationship so yeah
>>288506572Tickle her
>>288506929I mean, the publisher didn't force him the say all that shit on xitter and Yuri Navi. It's better to filter out the parasite before it gets too attached.
>>288506916I think I know the one you're talking about. It felt like it moved really fast. I mean I've probably read things that moved faster, but it felt more odd here.
>2010s: subtext yuri all flop>2020s: subtext yuri exploding in popularityWhat happened?
>>288506992You're fucking retarded lmao
>>288507021Yea, out of nowhere she has a couple drinks then goes over to her student's house and forces herself on her only for her to forget it all then they play catchup to that moment.
>using the subtext buzzword againYou fags'd better not let him hijack the thread again. I'm going to bed.
>>288506914Yep
>>288506953Basically they turned a yuri webthing about a girl watching other yuri couples into a romcom about a guy watching yuri couples together with another girl who was into him. Though the main issue is that they tried to promote it as a yuri work, which ended with them being flowed with people calling them out in the release day, the author trying to explain himself by saying it was a work to teach men to love yuri and then the next day the publisher officially making an statement the series was canceled.>>288507016They probably told him to give an excuse, he just wasn't good at it as we have seen, the fact he agreed with this already shows he is too retarded to be trusted.
>>288507021>>288507065It's an LN adaptation, so it's lacking a little context yes.
>>288506965Muslim oneeloli manga where Muhammad is a woman and has a loli haremWould it work?
>>288507036Higher production value. Hibike and Lycoris had great animation too.
>>288507166I mean, probably. But the author would 100% be killed with all the immigrants Japan currently has.
>>288506572Entrapment.
>>288506803>Blue Reflection RayWasn’t that the one that became hetslop so no one played it?
>>288507213Yes, I think they revived it now or something.
>>288507213Ray was the anime and it was decently yuri, it even had a kiss between villains. Sun was the shitty mobile game with the male MC.
>>288507114I recall him specifically said that the novel was his idea. Bro literally took all the blame for himself. Whether if he was forced to or not, no idea. And it wasn't just with the yurifag girl who watched over yuri couples in the original web series that he got teased with. He got teased with MULTIPLE different girls after the author made up some retarded excuse for the all girls school to be a mixed school. It was a full blown harem romcom slop.
Notice how the thread immediately shifted into the typical subtext vs. main text vs. scraps debate as soon as p-kun started samefagging
>>288507213No, that's Sun. Ray was yuri friendly and SL was very yuriful and had canon dykes in it. Which made Sun all the more awful.
You can't criticize Sun because Ray is yuri.
>>288507060Said the retard thinking Flip Floppers was an actual yuri
>>288507114>they turned a yuri webthing about a girl watching other yuri couples into a romcom about a guy watching yuri couples together with another girl who was into him. Though the main issue is that they tried to promote it as a yuri workThis must be a joke. People can't possibly be this retarded.
>>288507246To be fair publishers always force the responsibility on authors, don't get me wrong I am not really defending him, just saying the publisher is the one who fucked hard here, even if the yuri LN market back then was close to non-existent, you can't be this retarded and don't basic market research.And thanks for the context, for sure this series get worse every time someone updates the story.
>>288506914At this point I think we can all agree that anything less than kissing/sex is subtext. Girls say they love each other and hold each other's hands literally all the time.
Familiar posting style
>>288507330Welcome to the JP world
>>288507245>>288507282Oh right. I remember seeing a trailer for it and when the basic bitch anime dude showed up I said “the fuck is this shit?†and didn’t ever follow up on it again.
>>288506730I have no idea what that is since you can easily tell from the title and cover that it's either man-getting-between-the-yuri or Maki style creepy voyourism so it obviously doesn't interest me, and I'm not a controversy chasing twitter tranny. I'm sure you must be very proud about that time you shat your pants in protest over it though.
>>288507362Not really, you can still have a girl unambiguously making clear her love is romantic in nature or having the girls make clear they are dating.
>>288507376Uh huh. Crazy no westoid made a post about it on xitter back then, and this was purely the jap and the chink.And surely you would be defending it if it were to happen today because muh trannies.
Why does he think someone bookmarking a picture on pixiv is equal to inserting a male love interest in a yuri work
If you want genuine lesbian series where the main pair's lesbiancy is being respected, you shouldn't read yuri
>blonde girl stroking your yurifag dick while you sit in the corner and lust after dykes making out Wtf this is actually mocking yuri.
>>288507449Ok tranny, any more wisdom you want to share?
>>288507450>HOW DARE YOU TOUCH ME? I JUST WANT TO WATCH
>brown x white yuriwhy is it so rare?
>>288507376>>288507510>how can I make this about my ex-mangaka
ITT: we post yuri saviors
>>288507550
>>288507529Because browns are rare on japan, for the next 5 years at least.
>>288507447Maybe the same reason he posted a fake xitter screenshot of Hey saying he's used to making enemies of yurifags and then replied to his own post 5 times at the end of the last thread.
>>288507447If bookmarking het of your yuri characters is a universally accepted behavior from an author, you can surely point out a lot more than 2 times this had happened, one of which is quickly swept under the rug and no one gives a shit anymore.
fish
>>288507362>girls say they love each other and hold each other's hands literally all the time.Trues, but what's not normal for girls in media is to never show attraction to guys. When you combine the physical/emotional intimacy and the lack thereof with guys, it becomes obvious what authors are going for most of the time.
>>288507539>Oh no you made a joke about a character who likes to watch couples too while we are talking about a canceled manga about a guy who was watching couples!

Igarashi Jun calls us enemies so it's fair for us to call artists who mock yuri enemies.
>>2885075773 if you count Kurou praising Uthopia for his Watanugi doujins, but I don't think anyone find this one unexpected considering Kuro's decades of Gochiusa hentai.

>>288507652She clearly needs it
>>288507738Nice try, prick kun
I can't believe anyone who disagrees with me is the schizo that no one likes...
Togorou Sasa did it again
>>288507667Yeah sure whatever, that's a boring topic.Anyway, what was the last yuri manga you read? What do you think of it? I'm currently koinega, it's good so far but I think it's a bit too dramatic for me, I usually prefer more lighthearted yuri.
>>288507779But he doesn't bookmark het art of his yuri, so no one here is going to defend him.
>>288507779I respect the fantasy yuri grind but it would help if they weren't always so boring and generic
>>288507779>SasaNot yuri.
Finally, some yuri gaze.
>>288507608It's okay if you want to pretend you're a different tranny, but how likely do you think it is that five different people here were able to read the cropped fake and untranslated Japanese tweet, were too stupid to tell it was an obvious fake, chose to reply to it, and all were on your side of the argument?
>>288507831I'm an N3 and do you not know what google translate is? Or even what chatgpt is?
>>288507805His works have zero fanart, controversy avoided!>>288507816Hitokiri is fine, his previous works were much more generic, he is improving.>>288507823He has done explicit yuri works, not sure about this one.
>>288507869Also, not everyone has an xitter account. I didn't bother to check becuase I'm not an obsessed freak. I didn't even reply to that post. I just said he's a retard. That's it.
>>288507787NTA but I'm currently re-reading Kiss and White Lily for My Dearest Girl. It's been pretty fun so far; I feel like it's one of those manga that only gets better the more you read it, due to the ensemble cast and all the different couples. Makes me wish Canno would come back with another serialization.
>>288507889I could have sworn Hitokiri has some fan art. Maybe I remembered a different series.

>>288507652Left is therapy, right is the rapy.
>>288507967projection
>>288507889Was just joking about the fact he's regularly bitching that no one takes him serious as a yuri author despite his works being explicitly yuri.
>>288507964Now that you said it, I do remember something like that, I think it was a very rough sketch
>>288507972>Left is therapyYes. Definitely. No rapist here.
>>288507966>translatedLiberal use of the term considering it's Squiggles.
>>288507990Not all of them though, the vampire one wasn't for example, this one is tagged as yuri by him but I am not sure how much yuri it is.
reminder: yuri is a debuff and that's why Ayamo shuns it
>>288508004Exactly, she's made to bottom for human loli.
>>288508004Fox always waits for consent. But never the age of consent.
>>288507998Rape
>>288507869So 5 people chose to use an ocr or AI but no one tried looking it up on twitter and using the in built translation function? Admittedly one poster says he used AI >>288505230 but apparently it told him the picture was fake and a meme.>>288507915He's a retard because you fell for an obviously fake tweet and then felt the need to continue stirring shit in the next thread?
KimiShinu will save us.
>>288508191Retard, I don't give a shit about that post about muh enemy. I just said he's a retard because the whole fiasco he solely caused that was brought up along with it and you and your defenders who kept defending it since it happened. I've already said that I didn't reply to the post. >>288505819 was my first post on that matter. You fags were seething about muh trannies way before I posted anything >>288504962.
>>288508191Also, how many people here actually look up for the source of the tweets being posted here? I posted plenty of xitter screenshots myself. Have you ever looked it up before yourself?

>>288508788This often felt rushed but it was a cute and enjoyable little story for what it was
>>288509394I guess the author was scared she would just get axed before 3 volumes due to publisher telling her people couldn't tell it was a yuri series from the first volume cover

I love to be yuribaited
3 series which will definitely have anime
>>288510221Those are all Adachi and Shimamura which already had one.
I've spent way too much money requesting yuri on skeb over the last few months, so here's my takeaways:- Read the rules and note page before sending requests. The system is pretty dumb and will send you to an extra admin review for things as simple as mentioning a date.- It's not that hard to get requests accepted. Note that some artists won't accept copyrighted characters, and some can't even draw characters from their own manga.- Points are easier to use because they refund immediately. However, you are stuck with them if you buy them.- Expect requests to take the full time. Deliveries minutes before the deadline are common.- Skeb is essentially a gambling website, but I was happy with the quality overall. Only a handful of cases where I felt the artists could have put in more effort and no real disasters.Anyway, if you are one of those people constantly saying we need more of whatever specific kind of yuri, well, be the change you want to see.
>>288510079Every suicidal girl deserves a monster sh gf. Maybe Shizuku should've met one instead of getting emotionally manipulated by a dying girl.
>>288510253Wrong, it had 2 already.
>>288509788It will be yuribait and the love interest will show up in the yurislayer chart. You have been warned
>>288510354Nah, I can already see how it will end. "I love all of humanity! You're all by bestest friends" corny non-ending.
>>288510378Not before implying she will eventually hook up with a guy, of course
>>288510354>>288510378>>288510450This is the old strat. Nowadays you have the girls confessing and then a kiss on the cheek or something which is never mentioned again. Weeks later the writer or director does an interview calling you a retard for thinking the girls would be romantically involved.
>>288509788Gotta love classics coming back and with peak yuribait
>>288510489>Weeks later the writer or director does an interview calling you a retard for thinking the girls would be romantically involved.Is extra funny when nothing of what you first said happens in the first case, and the director still calls fans retards for making up shit and tells them to stick their fanfiction up the ass
>>288510260Got any artists you'd recommend? I'm a regular skeb user for corruption and NTR pieces, but I've been looking for some wholesome or slightly lewd yuri artists and just can't quite find one to scratch the itch I'm having,
>>288510566Name 2.5 instances of a writer or director attacking their fans for seeing yuri where there was absolutely none.
>>288510589>NTR
>>288508685
>>288507594>Trues, but what's not normal for girls in media is to never show attraction to guys.That's the standard for anime because moe otakus dominate the industry. Unless you're saying most anime is yuri
>>288507648Literally le male gaze

>>288510598I only know of two Hirohiko and a studio
re last last thread but do people seriously pay for MTLs? i get 60 tokens/sec output with gemma 4 31B with my 5090. and for manga you'd basically just have to transcribe it bubble by bubble no?if any /au/nons are interested i'd be willing to upload some samples
>>288510983> as always, if the original group is still working on their release I can take these down if they wantScanlation culture is just so retarded when a superior group has to say this to a slow and mediocre group
I wonder what Adachi and Shimamura get roped into for the culture festival?>cosplay cafe>romance play>beauty contestCross dress butler cafe and Adachi makes everyone swoon and Shima jealous??!?!AGH I CANNOT WAIT
>>288510996Not really. She's a whore and senpai is substantially more likeable than her. I hope Eri and Fuyuki part ways by the end of this, she already made Fuyuki suffer more than enough.
>>288510589>corruption and NTR piecesScary.In general, I'd recommend artists you know over random suggestions, but here's a few:https://skeb.jp/@intheWhiteRoomhttps://skeb.jp/@paderapollohttps://skeb.jp/@yuruyunaZNKhttps://skeb.jp/@sasasatotototohttps://skeb.jp/@tomekitigai
>>288510983Cute.
>>288511100>just spend thousands of dollars on a high-end PC so you can run a 31B parameter model locally to translate Japanese comics Why didn't I think of this?
>>288511100>pay>for llmsThere's no need. Just have the right connections and you can use basically whatever you want
>>288511506i bought for my 1080p gaming needs actually
>work covers $20 Gemini pro subscription>rip text from raws >get readable script for chapters in under 2 hours and it's usually better than 3rd world trannylator groupsThat easy.
>>288511100i am saving up for one
>>288511591>2 hours to read a 20 page chapter
yeah, well I just have chatgpt generate entire yuri manga for me to read
does it really take that long? it takes me 90 seconds for a shuukura chapter>>288511674i've tried that with written works and it's not terrible if you make a decent harness for it and do some editing and planning
>>288511591A lot of LLMs have pretty decent jp -> en translations now, but I've yet to see one that is actually able of capturing the spirit of the text rather than stilted sentences.
>>288511714For manga, it takes me longer personally because I describe visuals to improve context. For LNs, it's more or less instant.
What is the difference between yuri and lesbianism?
>>288509788There better be yuri punching with those gloves
>>288511809Yuri girls are all straight and often hate lesbians
>>288511774>I've yet to see one that is actually able of capturing the spirit of the text rather than stilted sentences.It should be possible to create a multi-agent system for that. You can have an agent for translating, an agent for cultural nuance, an agent for proof-reading, and so on. This was one of my side project ideas but I've been too lazy to start on it.
Was it rape?
>>288512106True. See: Renako, Toudou, Kanoko
>>288510887It's not the standard. You have stuff like Maomao and Frieren where the FeMC's are explicitly straight and they're some of the most popular works out there.
>>288512567So man straight women in yuri.
>>288511809Yuri = Any close relationships between girlsLesbianism = Sex

https://automaton-media.com/en/news/saya-no-uta-author-gen-urobuchi-thinks-audiences-no-longer-crave-poison-from-fiction-but-an-antidote-to-reality/>"However, I also feel like audiences nowadays aren’t looking for ‘poison.’ They’re probably craving an ‘antidote’ within fiction precisely because the real world is so cruel,†Urobuchi explains. “And that kind of ‘comfort’ should be made by younger generations. I’m thinking it would be better if I took a step back for a bit.â€Is this a good or bad thing for Madoka?
>>288512874that doesn't mean anything
>>288512810The easiest way to identify yuri for men is to look at their merch. Only waifufags buy stuff like this.
>>288512959Only men buy yuri merch, not a single women in existence has honestly bought yuri merch, it's all performative when they do.
>>288512874The other day I read an article covering how the new generation of artists is making absolutely miserable subversive shit and nobody creates hopeful media anymore. There were theories it's because the world they're raised in is so bleak and full of tension that never explodes so you don't get that surge of relief and optimism like post-WW2. The closest you get to hopeful is "comfort media" designed to never end and never shake things up too dramatically like your favorite sitcom, but even those are full of unhealthy characters now. In a way seeing fucked up characters do fucked up things can give a sense of catharsis.It's not like Madoka was particularly bleak either. It ends with everyone reviving from the dead and Madoka pulling a Jesus, becoming a symbol of hope staunching the innate suffering of the world. Everything post-TV series catapulted it into comfort media territory.
>>288513025I don't understand how Rebellion is "comfort media" when it ended with Homura becoming a devil, usurping god, and laying the groundwork for an inevitable conflict between them.
>>288512874Means nothing because he wrote the script in 2014.
>>288513161Because Madoka becoming a god was a bad end not a good one
>>288513161I said the series in general, the countless spin-offs and gacha and movies included.>and laying the groundwork for an inevitable conflict between themBut in Rebellion's case nothing about it was finite and simply kicked the can down the road for their inevitable reconciliation or breakup that will still never conclusively tear their relationship apart. Urobuchi talks a big game but he's not that hardcore.
>>288512987I've seen the most schizo yuri shrines come exclusively from women
Madoka always knew she was a god
Yuri baiting faggot
Where is Manio's new series?
>>288507339The thing is there was an actual yuri LN that came out on the same day as that one by the same publisher Dengeki, but it received way less promotion, or at least the less attention initially due to the shitstorm that other novel got. It's that fat AdaShima I forgot the name of that is receiving a manga adaptation. Initially, before it came out, due to that whole unrelated fiasco, it was a bit under fire because one of the girls "liked" a boy. Fervor was high and all. But after it was released, people quickly realized that that whole het thing was just a lie to get the Adachi character to pay attention and make a move on the Shimamura character.
>>288513477Who?
>>288513514You mean that one where she masturbates on the first chapter thinking on NTR the guy, I can see people getting upset at the time but it's a very common obvious setup, the bets one had the exactly same one
>>288513446>It looks cute so I drew itThe most honest japanese about how much they care about western nonsense, bet you if she knew the meaning of the colors she wouldn't agree with half of it
>>288510221Rape
I like this guy's art. Too bad he only has two very short series.
Wait, I just started on learning kanji was this stupid and robots will just do it soon?!
>>288514202No, learning a new language is an excellent use of time and good for both your brain and soul.
So sensei and boob girl are winning the MCbowl?
>>288510221>>288510253>AdaShima with rape>AdaShima with violence>AdaShima
>>288514291They are the strongest candidates
>>288513580Yup, that's the one. Back then, all people had was a synopsis. Tbh, looking back most of it was basically "be careful" posts. People were out for blood during a brief period back then. If it was released today, it wouldn't have been under that sort of scrutiny.
>>288514202>was this stupidOnly if you intended to make it your job, no matter how good and seamless automated translations get they'll never equal direct access to the author's actual writing.
You wake up as Teren, the popular yuri author. How would you improve Watanare? Hard mode: you're not allowed to remove the pink shit.

>>288514391Finally have Renako kiss the Kaho.
>>288514319Shimamura's Sword was rape. Shimamura did not consent to an autistic traumadump.
>>288514800No no no, the whole arc was how she did in fact consent to it.
>>288514370Final post. It's no coincidence that 2 "yuri" (one really is yuri but still) gets released on the same day back then. While it was true the yuri novel scene was miniscule compared to now, AdaShima was doing number back then, and with Teren releasing arioto and watanare back in 2018 and 2019, I think Dengeki was experimenting with yuri to see what sticks. Let's not forgot, they published YagaKimi and Even If It's Just Once, I Regret It, they are no stranger to yuri by then. To say they didn't do their due diligence isn't true imo, and I think that LN fiasco is just a byproduct of that experimentation.
>>288514391Satsuki has a long monologue along with Renako about what the nature of love, like Dante and Agnus in DMC4.
>>288514391Satsuki's Adachi type melty...
Kaho a shit
>>288514856Fuck I'm drunk again. time to sleep, fuck ibuki.
>>288514892
>>288512987Girl yuri shrines are cuter.
>>288514643Very semifriendly.
>>288510312I will sell my soul to Satan to get S2 of AdaShima
Woke up this morning. Got myself some gabagool.
>>288514947Would you accept an invitation to the watatabe season 2 praying circle?
>Youtube recommends me a video about planet yuri>not a single yuri character in the videoEvery time.
>>288510707We need more meme bird, actually.
>>288514988Yes I will devote some time for prayers, but seeing Adachi confessing in a yutaka with a mouth full of blood is my priority
>>288514800Shima accepted the flowers, yes? She consented to EVERYTHING
>>288515091Bully the Omochi.Squish the Omochi.
>>288514949Woke up this morning, got myself a sub
>>288514391Current arc ends with Satsuki dating Mai. Next arc ends with Kaho dating Ajisai. Final arc is Renako being comforted by Haruna.
>>288515247Woke up this morning, got shot off a boat.
>>288506888No, I'm happy when retarded fags don't like the same things as me, actually.
Afternoon Tea is out.https://comic-walker.com/detail/KC_007220_S/episodes/KC_0072200000600021_E?episodeType=latest
>>288515267I think that tony actually wanted a ham and swiss
>>288514370>>288514822I don't think it's so much people were out for blood but more the core yuri fanbase just didn't know what to think about it at the time, we were having new publishers and magazines who weren't as experienced with yuri and a large influx of new authors no one heard of, I remember talking to one anon many years ago on /u/, not sure if it was before of after this situation and saying to him the market was going to grow so much we would inevitable have publishers and authors trying to test the boundaries of the genre and in the process releasing things that would either be divisive successes or big flops. And to be clear, this isn't the only work like this that was released, the difference is that the ones that came after were not promoted in the same way, you have for example that very egregious work with the male MC who turns invisible or is some type of ghost I don't really remember and together with another girl helps yuri couples get together, while you know, "accidentally" watching the girls undressing and groping them and I don't think works like this are born of sentiment of "breaking the yuri" but rather either the editor or the author honestly thinking the male audience wants to self insert and touch the girls without breaking their romance, more recently we have this ecchi work of the female MC watching other girls and using it as masturbation fuel, except all the fantasies were obvious analogies for the girls getting fucked by a guy, only more recently the author actually realized people want to see fantasies about yuri and actual interaction between the characters,
>>288514926Not a single girl bought this manga, not even the author owns it.
>>288506965Just say Yuri Nazism. Also any retards posting this communist cancer. >>288506909
>>288515326This actually happened in the Soprano manga.
Oh yes the japanese pride>Here a female character who won't have sex with men>Here a female character who won't have sex (with men)>Here a female character who won't have sex with men ever againSo diverse lol
>>288515488>looking a Japanese pride throught yuri authors>whoa, lots of lesbians here, so much for diversity
>>288515488>how can you say you respect lesbians if you don't depict women having sex with men in your yuri manga?- /au/It's bizarre how offended you guys get by this stuff. Don't even get me started on the anon calling it communist.
>>288514926>shrine dedicated to a literal cum guzzlerHey would approve
>>288515592I am just laughing at the japanese clout chasers, ironically all female and josei authors, you know who isn't making a single post about pride month? Totajirou, you know the male author who in his yuri manga had>Lesbian characters>Bisexual characters>Straight characters (granted a lot of them vanished as the story went on)>Gay characters
>>288515592I meant the retarded hag writing it. And, no, that faggot isn't even a real /a/non.
>>288507330worst part is after getting a ton of hate he made a twitter thread trying to explain his reasoning and his reasoning was having a crush on mugi k-on lmfao
>>288515716After clarification, you're still a faggot and "diversity" is codeword for shallow bullshit.
New badminton manga from the squid girl mangakahttps://x.com/masahiro_lemon/status/2062188839163359390Ready to gamble on this?
>>288515835Nah.
>>288515766Yes, that is the perfect definition of diversity, I am not sure why are you thinking I am trying to argue otherwise.
>>288515716>>288515766Even if the real definition, it's still completely unnecessary to narrative.No, a bunch of other straight or even bishit relationships are not needed just for progress.
>>288515835Everything she ever wrote was either het or het coded and the only lesbian character she ever wrote was a pervert stereotype from 20 years ago.
I hate when people get their pride shit mixed in with my fetish manga.
>>288515932Of course they are not, yuri is a product of entertainment, you are far more likely to find anything closer to diversity on shonen jump than anything those cloud chasers will ever produce.
>>288511809Yuri is the purest form of loveLesbianism is the purest form of sex
People ITT are, shamefully, still getting 3D (real life) confused with 2D (anime, manga, novels)
>>288515302Kanata continues to be a walking woman moment. Yuuri's character design is pretty good.
>>288516133I love women
>>288515302Big Water keeps winning.
>>288516156And manga!
>>288516133she gets worse
>>288516217worse(better)
>>288516225worse(miyagi-esque)
>>288516217and that's a good thing.
>>288516133The entire story is kind of like a slow motion car crash.
>>288506572Keep on the watch out for Ojisans magically appearing to see their predicament.
>>288512106Retards believe this unironically and Descartes covered pretending to be one. Fuck off.
>Sendai raped Miyagi. >Miyagi ran away to Maika's place. >Maika ratted out her stay to Sendai. >Sendai goes to take back Miyagi to rape again. Maika is evil.
How big are the yuri fandoms in China and Korea?
>>288516544Bigger than the collective west, that's for sure.
>>288516511Technically you can argue 6 of them aren't yuri but watanare and kimishinu are yuri by even the strictest definition.
>>288516520Miyagi consented, though
>>288507362This. Gwitch is not Yuri
>>288516640Argue how Bad Girl and Watatabe are not yuri then
All yuri
>>288516520It's curious how this is overlooked, if Miyagi's roomate turned to be a guy you can be pretty sure she would not have pushed her to go back
>>288516666No romantic relationships. Just gay moments.
Romantic relationship full of gay moments
>>288516700>I'm not gay, I just have gay momentsI don't think that'll hold up in court.
>>28851670090% of yuri published does not have a romantic relationship until the very end of the story
>>288516687Bocchi is straight thougheveraobeitassuch
>>288516843Bocchi is one of the most gay kirara protagonists even including those of actual yuri manga because she is actually interested in girls in general and not just happened to fall in love with this specific person of the same gender
>>288513830>if they knew they wouldn't agree with half of itThat's what I think. The issue is it still looks like genuine support for their retarded shit. This is exactly how Sony was tricked by shitposting into mistakenly putting Morbius back in theaters.>>288515592>>288515722Also, prideshit flag just looks fucking ugly and can't into rainbows I drew in daycare. At least "lesbian" has absolutely lovely color choices blending together.
>>288516511>high standardsfags in practice>>288516666NTA and Watatabe is my fav current yuri, but if you needed to show something completely unambiguous that even the most brain dead moe poisoned Nip could identify as rezu by the end of the first episode, then WataNare would definitely be the unambigous first choice.
>>288516865Didn't she want to be a gf to a gamer guy
New kimishinu. https://ichicomi.com/episode/12207421983797044657
>>288516903No, she wanted to have the cosplay GF
>>288516903Lol no, not sure if you are being ironic, but you see there was a troll in this board called detective Ame who started doing MTL snipes of Bocchi to change the meaning of what she said to not look gay anymore, then a few chapters later he gave up and even admitted the troll on mangadex because he was getting too much shit.The actual translation is that she wanted a cosplayer girlfriend, since her fantasy was being a pro gamer.
>>288506572God demands pedo lesbian sex.
Did this end in yuri
>>288516881Yes, not what I asked though, I am pretty sure the author had Fishe kissing Hinako to make sure people understood she wasn't going to pretend it wasn't yuri later.
>>288517036Ugly as sin artstyle
>>288516951Once again, this went on hiatus so long I can't fucking recall what was happening. Again.
>>288517052Yep, important to note that not only is volume 7 explicitly tagged romance, but the scene as it is was toned up from a more ambiguous kiss on the hand according to one of the Pony Canyon interviews with Sai.
>>288507510How do you make another himedanshi sound like a fucking supervillain.
>>288507450Source?
>>288517052>Fishe kissing Hinako It was a taste test. Both their eyes look dead. This isn't a romantic scene at all.
>>288517246SO THERE'S CHANCE FOR SOMEONE ELSE?
>>288517234This one should be it. https://news.ponycanyon.co.jp/2025/12/117497
>>288517246That is exactly the point dumbass, Fishe explains to Miko this was the price for having to give in to Hinako's crazy demands, so at least both of them got something out of it.
>>288517179>HimedanshiJust call him a tranny if you hate him so much
