>>4186626Shimamura looks like she has been eating.
>>4186626Learning that this series is still in ship bait phase for 10+ volumes is pretty disappointing
>>4186649Go shitpost about it on /a/.
>>4186649its all about the journey. as long as it ends in a canon relationship, i dont care how long it takes
>>4186649It's called slow burn. It makes the eventual payoff all the better.
https://twitter.com/aoiyukiko/status/1777723825515647273>how did ya get into yuri?>anne of green gables when I was a kidKek, expected nothing less.
>>4186655I'm waiting for Kanoko to slowly burn.
>>4186656excelent childhood ship taste, right there with Anneliese and Erika for me
FFS who is her girlfriend?
>>4186663all of them
the creeper, miho, is the gf
>>4186656>>4186662I've never read it but just reading the character descriptions on Wikipedia makes it sound Nanoha-tier gay. I'm going to have to find a copy of the book.
>>4186651>>4186655Has the series even bring up the topic/idea of romance between girls/mcs so far? Because there is slow burn and there is 10 volumes of nothing Also because I don't remember yuri novels that takes longer than 5 volumes to not bring up such topics
>>4186649>i-it's not yuri, okay?Wrong.>>4186651>i-it's not yuri yet, okay?Wrong.It was already yuri from the very moment they held hands.
>>4186670Is it GL yet then?
it should be illegal to shitpos about a series you haven't even read
>>4186669>10 volumes of nothingSubtextchads eating good while kissfags can die in a ditch. Yuri needs a decade long subtext phase to cleanse all coomers away and return to its roots...>>4186671>GLMade up term that kissfags celebrated in previous threads. Has nothing to do with yuri. Why are you bringing it up?
>>4186672im not reading marimite, fuck off. i already watched the anime, im not reading the books too
>>4186649It's always been one of the worst yuri series. Absolutely does not deserve its popularity.
>>4186676I don't think it is popular Been digging the archive, and found basically nothing about it
>>4186626Hate it when the artist doesn't draw all of the feet. Go all the way dammit, don't be a coward.
>>4186681not them but i was reading the manga for a bit when it first got scans, but dropped it because of the slow and erratic scanlation uploads.on top of that the LN doesnt have an official english release (nor the manga for that matter), so its not like its had much of a chance to get popular
>>4186698step-cousin?
>>4186681It has 11 volumes and an anime, but well according to watanarefags the less you have the more popular you are
>>4186698Cousin and sister
>>4186698that's pretty normal, Anon
>>4186649>porn addict can't enjoy some slow burn
>>4186701Why don't you show the circulation number instead of randomly seething at your rent free series out of nowhere
>>4186706Yeah if you are a Habsburg.
>>4186715I'm talking about having crushes as a kid, not really commiting incest of course
>>4186698Why are you asking this on the yuri board?
>>4186604BasedBasically exactly how I feelReally disappointed after how much /u/ tried to gaslight about this show. But I do admit I like the shorter hair girl’s character type Probably will just end up watching Jellyfish this season since it’s tot high production
>>4186730They want to be the next Huskey and Medley.
>>4186731>WaifufaggingMOOOODS
>>4186698Not me, but there's this lady that used to be really close with my mom when both of them were young, like really close. After my mom getting married, she somehow distances herself from my mom and decided to enroll in Seminary School.Years later, my mom meets her and she's still single despite being in her 50s.
>>4186768>still single despite being in her 50sThis fate awaits you as well.
>>4186770I think the reason she is single and the reason why that anon will be forever alone are very different
>>4186770>>4186777Stop roasting me, both of you also have no gf .
>>4186663I wish it was the long-haired chick but I know it's gonna be the shoulder-length one.

The plot of seiyuu radio sounds like a nicomaki AU fanfic to me.

>>4186798what the hell, looks great for an indie anime
>>4186799as long there's no power imbalance, fair enough
>>4186604>just watch sasako if you want actual yuriI can watch both>lol what a cheap animeSasakoi isn't gonna be much better in that department
>>4186817>Sasakoi isn't gonna be much better in that departmentThere is no such thing as anime which is not cheap nowadays.
I had a dream that we were trying to make a yuri mod for a shooter but we kept arguing over making Signalis sprites for Doom or getting all the lines Romi Park recorded for Kuroko and making a Murcielago mod for Duke Nukem 3D.Anyway once you get over the psychological distress that your brain decided to make you dream about a 4chan thread, all I can think is damn can't believe the futafags got a boomer shooter before yurifags did.Sure, we got stuff across the board in all kinds of vidya genres from SRPGs to multiplayer shooters, but still.
>>4186626I don't care if this is slow burn or not, but does it have any het with main girls or not? I am not big on bisexuals, sue me.
>>4186830No, they are all over each other all time.
>>4186828>I'm here to eat pussy and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of bubblegum
>>4186831That's a relief, picked up, thanks
>>4186832>I'm here to eat ass
>>4186832>>4186834I'd pay money for this
Considering no one can answer this >>4186669 so far, I am guessing there is literally no reader here huh
>>4186841To be fair, it's really boring, the anime is a rare case of being far better than the source.
7 more days
>>4186797Now i wanna read that fic
>>4186830According to chinese anons who read it, there is basically no landmines in this save usual landmine looking drama baits here and there Also can't believe the fucking ep1 thread there got deleted fast, LN anons haven't even finished posting info about the series for the curious ones
>>4186844I heard it is the opposite of Otherside Picnic or something, as in yuri levels got lower while voice actors' dramas and autism levels got higher in latet parts
>>4186853As new characters get introduced the autism grows bigger, but there are also more ships.
should I watch g-witch if don't know anything about gundam? or would I not understand what's happening?
>>4186855It's not related to the other series, as long you accept humans would waste their time making giant robots instead of war machines that made sense you are ok to go.
This is why Adachi gets a girlfriend and you don't
>>4186856Makes somewhat more sense in this one since they're mainly used for showy official duels. Imagine how boring they'd be if they were driving tanks.
>>4186859This only depends if there are little girls piloting the tanks or not
How come no girls band cry general? I think it has potential.
>>4186871What is stopping you from making it yourself?
>>4186844>the anime is a rare case of being far better than the sourceWhat seiyuu radio anime? EP1 was incredibly plain
>>4186873Never said it wasn't.
>>4186872My mom.
>>4186859That describes GuP and that was pretty showy. Drifting a tank is about as rizz as it gets.
>>4186817Can we at least expect the songs to be good?
>>4186881This doomposting for an anime that has a perfect fine PV has been very annoying, I also don't think they will focus on the song bullshit at all, it's irrelevant.
>>4186885The muv-luv armor always makes me think the characters have beards.
>>4186874No kiss gets a pass from me when there’s an actual story with stakes So WfM is fine in my book
>>4186889I think getting married is more important than a kiss, but that is just me.
>>4186871>girls bang and cryThe yuri of my dreams.
>>4186892Well that too. It helps there's something else that keeps the relationship front and center.I finished the Princess Principal anime this week. No kiss either but I really enjoyed the fact that the show highlighted how much the main pair's relationship was different than the others and that, much like WfM, they had to deal with something that was more than just school drama. I did get VERY annoyed at a scene at the end, when Dorothy brought up "our luck with men" randomly but I will hopefully forget this repulsive detail when I start watching the movies.
>>4186896The movies are great because they let the yellow monkey drive the car.
>>4186899I thought it was consummation that actually sealed the deal, but I guess it depends where the kiss is happening
>>4186905Not consumming the marriage used to be a common reason for annulment.
>>4186900Whys there only 3 movies outI thought i read somewhere there was going tobe six pripri movies
>>4186896>our luck with menwas this meant in a sincerity way relating to romance, or in a sarcastic way regarding how most of the men she meets are trying to kill her or are scumbags
>>4186916>how most of the men she meets are trying to kill her or are scumbagsThis, most likely.
>>4186916The former, Dorothy was just joking. I kinda appreciated that moment cause Ange was about to tell them about her meeting with Princess as her only romantic experience , a version with blackjack and lizards but still.
>>4186915Studio is incompetent, please understand.
>>4186896>I did get VERY annoyed at a scene at the end, when Dorothy brought up "our luck with men" randomly but I will hopefully forget this repulsive detail when I start watching the movies.Actual autism.
Why do shows continue to use tinny audio to show when a character is watching a stream? I haven't heard compression that bad since 2008.
>>4186928to better differentiate it from reality i guess. same reason whenever an anime character is watching an anime, its really exaggerated or crudely drawn
>>4186915Welcome to the GuP Das Finale experience: The movies come out whenever, there's can be large gaps of time beetween movies. They're still not all out
>>4186845For what?
>>4186881No. This isn't Bocchi the Rock.
>>4186922Dorothy was always a flirt in the show so if she just said it about herself I'd have no problem, but she just had to use us (uchi-ra) and that timing was awful given everything Ange/Princess just went through.It's a small complaint in an otherwise great series. I watched it all in like 3 sessions.
>>4186920>Ange was about to tell them about her meeting with Princess as her only romantic experienceYou completely misremembered that scene. They were on the run at Casablanca after the finale and Ange said a man approached her. The others thought it was romantic but she explained he was just there to give them their new orders. Then we get everyone's reaction including Dorothy's comment, and when the little nip killer said Ange doesn't seem like the type to have romantic affairs, Ange tried to say something but was interrupted. I like to think she was going to talk about herself and Princess, most likely in a roundabout way, but who knows.
>>4186946Just because someone said "us" doesn't mean anyone other than the speaker agrees with that statement. Someone ITT can say shit like "We don't consider G-Witch yuri" and everyone would know that "we" means him alone since nobody else could possibly be as stupid as him.
>>4186948That was more or less what I meant. Now I'm slightly upset and my favorite tit hurts and it's your fault.
my ranking for the shows so far that have already aired (best to worst):>Jellyfish cant swim in the nightvery gay and probably the most likely one to end in a (subtext) relationship. feels like it will have lots of drama too>Girls Band Crynot a fan of CGI, but at least its pretty good here. also very gay and starts of with a 1-on-1 meeting with a future bandmate like jellyfish. really enjoy the comedy too, and going out of their way to mention that the roommate is gay felt like a wink to the yuri audience >Seiyuugreat first episode, i love rivals to lovers even if nothing explicit will happen throughout the anime. someone said the publisher or something of the LN confirmed it was yuri so i will hold it to them>Train to the end of the worldhas potential, 2nd episode was more in line with what i expected. the main cast doesnt seem very yuri though outside of the MC looking for Yoka, but that will probably be near the end of the series so there wont be much screen time with the two of them.>Rinkaiit was okay, ill probably give it another episode or two>Highspeed etoileDumpster fire of a first episode. dropped>didnt watchOomuro-keyuru campsasakoi hasnt aired yet, but ill probably have the same opinion on it as i did the manga: its decent
its shimeji!
>>4186964Where's her simulation?
>>4186967the 7G is a simulation
>>4186949I don't think I've ever seen another series on here whose fans have such an inferiority complex
>>4186955Why does reading a post make your tit hurt? Also, you have a favorite tit?
>>4186970Watanare
What made that series so special to this anon? Because I don't think a day has gone without him being rent free about that series multiple times out of nowhere
>>4186980A first I thought it was Ack type of mental illness, considering they even post the same things sometimes but now I am pretty sure it is some kind of weird advertisment
>>4186970>inferiority complexHow the hell do you even get that from that post?
>>4186994Anon doesn't actually know what the term means, and I can only assume actually meant persecution complex.
>>4186879Yeah, but if you downgrade to tanks to be more "realistic", only to end up on GuP's level, you were better off sticking with mechs the entire time
>read all of Bloom into You in one sitting>Touko visits Yuu's family's bookstore>her sister immediately clocks her as her girlfriend>silent but supportive about itThat was nice. Also,>horny teenagers not afraid to behave like the horny teenagers they are>literally bang the first chance they getIt's such a fucking relief after ready so many yuri where they pussyfoot around the matter.
>>4187019citrus did all of this and you hate it
>>4187019Stop reading non explicit ""yuri""
>>4187019Are /u/ new? I'm surprised there's anyone on this board who hadn't read BiY. It's pretty much required reading at this point.
>>4187022Uh they literally have sex on screen.
>>4187019I wish we got scenes of Yuu and Touko introducing each other as girlfriends to their parents.
>>4187023No, I took a break from manga and anime in general while it was in the middle of being serialized. I think I saw the raws of Yuu's confession on those rocks then I forgot about it. The first long yuri series I read was Girlfriends but Mai-Hime was my entry into yuri.
>>4187022>It's not yuri/good yuri if they aren't having sex in chapter 1Go back.
Sayaka should have won
>>4187029She really should have but as it was stated in the series, she waited too long. Yuu addressed Touko's identity crisis by rewriting the play so Touko wouldn't decide on having to mimic people's perception of her to have an identity.
>>4187029Nah thematically that wouldn't fit BUT it's kinda fucked up for real Touko was doing her kiss games with Yuu after like 2 minutes of knowing her but never tried anything with Sayaka after years and years.
Let's be honest, Yagakimi is mediocre and would be treated as such if it was released today.
>>4187029She shouldn't have. All Sayaka did was be Touko's simp and yes girl while also enabling Touko's self-destructive behavior. Yuu was confrontational, told Touko to cut the shit, and that's why Touko gravitated more to her. Because Yuu wasn't like everyone else, Yuu wasn't like Sayaka.
>>4187038It's like 7 years old. Stop acting like it's some boomercore work from the 90s coasting on nostalgia.
>>4187038YagaKimi is baby's first yuri manga, and there's nothing wrong with that. They gotta start somewhere, and it usually is going to be an anime. It's fine for what it is, and it came out at the start of the modern yuri boom which definitely helps it.
>>4187042I'd definitely recommend it to anyone like thatIt basically has almost every major hallmark of the genre
I legit really like the few interactions between Yuu and Sayaka. And it isn't for the meme or whatever. By the end of the manga, I was rooting for Sayaka to get together with Yuu.
If people call Bloom into You average, then I really want to know what they consider good yuri manga
>>4187046Anything without m*les in it for one. Hell, BiY even had a het side couple too. Absolutely disgusting.
>>4187045It's funny how they're still friends after the story while Sayaka and Touko stopped talking.
>>4187046Kitakawa is the obvious example.
>>4187046yuru yuri
Koyomi deserves a yuri spin off
For me, the only flaw I see in YagaKimi is that Yuu is completely normal, and in fact everyone except Touko is completely normal. There could have been at least twice as many mental issues in this story.
>>4187046I liked Bloom into You but Aoi no Hana? The anime is REALLY good.I thought it was fucked up though that the cousin apologized to the MC for making her a lesbian by raping her as a kid. I mean, I'm pretty sure everybody was thinking that but she just flat out said it.I was into Sasameki Koto but lost interest when the entire cast was turning into lesbians.>>4187048The creator flat out states she made a co-ed school the setting so the reader would be assured that the characters wouldn't leave the relationship if a man came into the picture.
>>4187056Based cousin. Shouldn't have apologized.
>>4187020Please link the sex chapter I must have missed in
Time skip in the latest chapter of Koukaku no Pandora, guessing one or two more chapters lefthttps://comic.webnewtype.com/contents/k_pandora/125/
>>4187056>but Aoi no Hana? The anime is REALLY good.the anime ended before the real romance even began>I was into Sasameki Koto but lost interest when the entire cast was turning into lesbians.Whys that a bad thing? Also there was like 8 lesbians, 4 of which were already lesbians before the series started (2 of them were already dating too) and met because they wanted to form the lesbo club, and not many if any 'turned gay'.The kohais that joined later were already gay beforehand (or at least koino was), and Aoi was either in the closet already or on the pathway since she was actively reading and writing yuri doujins. I cant remember if Charlotte was already gay for Sumika or not beforehand, but i believe she was already in love with her when she introduced in the manga. There was also the one library girl from the first episode that tried reaching out to Ushio near the end i think, but i cant remember if it was implied she was gay for ushio or just felt bad because of what she did (its been a long time since i read it).Theres multiple lesbians in the story, but most of them are already lesbians when theyre introduced, and i dont think even realismfags should have trouble suspending their disbelief enough to believe that there could be 8 girls in a school who are gay and interacting with eachother, especially since they were parading the gay girl club around looking for members.
>>4187056I think she's talking about yuu's sister and her boyfriendWhich is a non issue since she plays wing girl for her sister a bit
>>4187065The side couple is Doujima and Akari, the glasses guy in the student council and Yuu's friend in the basketball club.
>>4187064at least 4 of which were already explicitly lesbian before the series started***
>>4187019No, you're supposed to say yagakimi is overrated so you can fit in
Just look back and laugh.
>>4187020Big Bloom 4 You was lauded because it was the anti-Citrus but now making fun of citrus is beating a dead horse like how many girls in literally any other yuri series have had sex before the citrus girls did, so now we have to move onto bigger fish.
>>4187077I always found this discussion silly because Citrus timeskips to the marriage
>>4187062>Proserpina gets to do the newscast at the start of the final chapterVlinda Hopeman mogged until the very end.Timeskip Clarion looks amazing.
So many manga I wish had a sex scene at the end, why focus on Citrus.
>Side couple gets a sex scene before the main couple even gets togetherHow crazy would that be?
>>4187020I liked citrus until it felt like the author was repeating plot points and all of the side characters were suddenly interested in each other too. I also hated that citrus has had at least 3 moments where it could have had a sex scene in it and didn't.
>>4187101>all of the side characters were suddenly interested in each other tookino
>>4187103Kino is from Sasakoi, not Citrus.
>>4187091It's not even a sexual thing with citrus, it just feels like they keep getting set up for a potential sex scene and then pull away from it so they can do the same thing they've been doing for the past 5 fucking volumes.
>>4187103It wasn't a bad decision don't get me wrong. I kinda enjoyed it but it didn't really feel like it was ever going to go anywhere and started using the side characters to try to distract from it. I dunno. I need to read more good yuri. I'd put citrus in like D tier. Definitely not as bad as Scarlet. I fuckin hated that one.
does citrus+ take place before or after the wedding?
>>4187108Right after the end of the original series, supposedly years before the wedding in the epilogue.
>>4187076Sayaka x faceless girl when?
>why are you avoiding me...do you hate me?>i-its because ive fallen in love with youBest trope. Can you even call your series a yuri if it doesnt at least have this scene?
>>4187120>And she gave her a pinecone
plot idea: yuri is my job but instead of a cafe it's voice actors doing business yuri
>>4187056>Aoi no Hana? The anime is REALLY good.
It's telling that Bloom into you author immediately went on to make hetshit after it ended.It's actually pretty bad and doesn't hold up today just like Girlfriends. Can't say I didn't enjoy it a bit 10 years ago tho.
>>4187181What is it telling?
>>4187181>went on to make hetshitShe didn't.
Yagakimi but it's a delinquent AU>cold-hearted delinquent opening up to love and her sukeban gf trying her best to live up to the image of her aneki
>>4187181Honestly, none of what you imply makes any sense, an author who made a yuri series moves on to something different like het or no yuri, so the yuri series stops being yuri or good?Bloom into you gets one of the aspects right that many other yuri works completely fail, the worst thing is that it is a really important aspect in a romance series or even if the romance is a secondary element, the couple works and is good.
>>4187197>Bloom into you gets one of the aspects right that many other yuri works completely fail, the worst thing is that it is a really important aspect in a romance series or even if the romance is a secondary element, the couple works and is good.It's like you worked up to saying something profound and then stopped at "it's good because it's good." The thing it got right was having a unifying theme both characters could connect through. Most manga in general have shallow surface level writing. Romantic pairs often stop at 2 characters looking good together. Yuu and Touko's character arcs are entwined which makes the ending memorable and satisfying despite being relatively vanilla.
As much I like Yagakimi, you could easily trim it to be a single volume and the only thing of value that would have been lost were Sayaka chapters, I didn't enjoy Yuu having to be told by the creepy guy what she had to do and Touko's issues were too severe for the "everything will be okay" resolution she got.
>>4187181Telling what? Authors dont owe you anything.
>>4187209As a matter of fact I gave Manio a tray of Blintzes to paint my fence, but she never did it!
>>4187198The couple works and is good, they don't need to say more or use long arguments or excuses to justify the series, that is the reason why at least the couple is not stupidly hated.>>4187211hey, that's my request.
>>4187208Meh, if I could change anything it would be to truncate the theater play arc because it was essentially the yuri version of Namek.
It's often a bummer in romance series when you don't understand why characters like each other, simply they spend time with each other and whoops, suddenly they are in love.
>>4187220What do you want, entire chapters dedicated to explaining each character and then chapters to explain the romance?
>>4187228Don't have to explain to the camera, just show it.
>>4187213She can't keep getting away with it!
>>4187213Those blintzes were lousy
>>4187213Manio only takes.
>>4187233well, in the part:>>simply they spend time with each otherThat's where love is born/created, that's why in non-romance series (subtext included) couples feel more authentic or memorable, it's something you see grow and not simply rubbed in your face by the author.
>>4187241Depends if the author is good or not. Many times I was underwhelmed.
>>4187220>don't understand why characters like each otherWhich series are good examples of this?
>>4187213We don't care about your blintzes.
>>4187247NTA but you will have a hard time finding one in yuri but it is pretty common in het, mostly in western Hollywood movies.
>>4187255then the problem is different, it's the het that sucks at representing romance in any way or genre, that's why good het couples are so rare (many of them are garbage fueled by hype from stupid fans)In Yuri you have a slow and sometimes constant construction, which only needs someone's push to get to the next level (like Baiser).
>>4187194Delinquent Sayaka kicking ass and sniffing cats.
Yagakimi but 4chan AU>Sayaka the buyfag
>>4187198>memorable and satisfying despite being relatively vanillaIf anything, it was memorable and satisfying BECAUSE it was vanilla.
If a yuri couple does karaoke, which girl sings Nelly Furtado's lines and which girl sings Timbaland's lines in Promiscuous?
>>4187268Ano route never
>>4187270It isn't fair...
Girls band cry is gay. Nina is totally in love with Momoka.
>>4187220>>4187241Just to add, it's been scientifically proven that shared experiences lead to a greater feeling of emotional attachment and sexual attraction between two people. But I get what anon is saying because some couples feel pretty forced because they don't have those shared experiences. Because in your friend group, what's the difference between the girl in the friend group you're in love with, and the girl that's simply a girl in the friend group? The yuri works that do a really good job of nailing the shared experiences thing, tend to be my favorites because it feels much more organic.
>>4187270Forget Ano route, give me Aki route.
>fan-turned-band's-frontman x jaded/failed rocker>3 year age gapI'll forgive Girls Band Cry for being CG if they commit to this pairing even in strong subtext
>>4187274The Romance genre is by concept idealistic if not wish fulfilment, what appeals to some readers is the idea of unlikely people getting together, of course there is a fine line between two characters creating chemistry together and "he/she was nice to me".
>>4187067Doesn't that happen at the very end of the manga tho?
>>4187283Even if they had actual panel space, it's just petty to complain about this
>>4187286Fair
>>4187280Last episode proved they are. Last shot is Momoka looking longingly at the microphone where Nina should be.
>>4187283Yes. They only get one big interaction where Doujima gets mad at the senpai Akari liked for rejecting her, which is implied to be when Akari starts taking an interest in him. Everything else is offscreened, yet anon will still complain like a little bitch.
>>4187288It still feels pretty one-sided on Nina's part. Nina looks thoroughly (and subconsciously considering she just discovered gay people exist) smitten with Momoka but there's not as much in the other direction yet.
>>4187271I like Hina, but I also want to see Yuna getting together with Ano>>4187276>Aki route>Aki is the playable characterDo want, Aki and Yuna will mesh together really well.
>>4187297>but I also want to see Yuna getting together with AnoDon't we all?
>>4187292Obvious green screen is obvious. Was it too expensive to send the actresses to a place that kinda looks like that and shoot there?
>>4187302Nah it's the other way around, the moment anyone mentions LycoReco in an even vaguely positive light there's usually someone going >lycoreco >yuri in response.
>>4187292Episode 1 zoomed in on Momoka a few times as she was finding Nina cute or blushing because Nina called her cool. I hope that's a sign.
>>4187280>Tfw when rock-it-girl will never be adaptedFeels bad, girls
>>4187270Who would you pair her with?She's just a Yuri fag in a Yuri game
>>4187306Yuna or some OC OLShe's probably also a lesbian.
>>4187306Ano doesn't do IRL!
>>4187310Yeah, right. And Itsumi is totally not into yuri.
>>4187303It's much worse than that, LycoReco doesn't even have relevance to the conversation and the same old idiots discredit LycoReco in one way or another.
>if you could see loveDoes this end in 3p?
>>4187313No, Teren is a hack.
>>4187313Nope, but it probably would've if it hadn't been axed early on.
>>4187314>>4187315The heck, now I am curious.
>>4187315It wouldn't have gotten the axe if he didn't manio'd the publisher
>>4187315Even if it was axed that ending was a spiteful "take that!" in the face of the readers contrary to all the buildup and themes of the work.Basically, this is what happens when yaya wins.Nothing good...

Hello /u/, the Spring Cup qualifiers kick off today and our team will be playing against /x/ in 15 minutes. Check the links below if you don't know what this is about and are curious. Hope to see you there.https://pastebin.com/U81NNtuy
>>4187321https://twitter.com/mangatimekirara/status/17787096518714125953rd or 4th reprint?
>>41873313rd reprint, 4th print.
>>4187327This could be true for first printings, not 100 copies of course, but undershipping is the industry standard, but it's unlikely a low selling series would get second and third reprints.
>>4187330Good game. Started off slow but Ange turned it all around. Only an alien could beat /x/, I guess.
>>4187330/x/'s pressure up front almost broke us and Ange had to bail us out big time, but a win is a win. We have another match tomorrow against /wg/, and hopefully the girls will have shaken off their sleepiness by then.>>4187342Two goals and woman of the match despite only playing for the final 20 minutes. Couldn't have asked for more from her.

>>4187273The way she reacted when Subaru showed up...
>>4187536Do I have the series for you.
>>4187538NTA but id take bad/low-budget 2D over good CG anyday. Even if the CG doesnt look bad like in girls band cry, ill always see it as a compromise instead of the preferred outcome, just something ill tolerate. They just dont look real, like they dont belong in the environment, and is just one of those elements i cant describe why, but its something my brain registers and sticks in the back of my mind as unnatural
>>41875422D is just as fake as CG, I don't get this about realness.I was pretty disappointed by the seiyuu radio anime, cause aside from the fact that the pacing feels super rushed is bad, but there's also the cheap 2D animation that makes it even worse, I wish seiyuu radio the animation quality of girls band cry cause i loved the manga (yes i know it's a light novel first, i haven't found them yet.)
Back in my days, girls would take 60 chapters to make some micro progression or their manga would get axed by chapter 3. Now they all start dating from the beginning. God.
>>4187556Let's get you to bed, grandma,
>Watanare v4 comes out earlyNice
>>4187552>2D is just as fake as CG, I don't get this about realness.its 2D, everything that you see, is like that because someone drew it that why. Everything from the perspective, the angels youre looking at the characters from, the shadows, etc. has to be drawn specifically for that shot. Whereas with CG, a lot of it is automated, which leads to a lot of the characters looking out of place and unnatural, since youre able to plop them in there and have them be viewed from any angle/lighting you want. its especially noticable in some shots where the environment they are in is not fully CG, and takes me out of it.would really want to know how you find 2D to be just as fake as CG. CG does not feel as authentic to me>there's also the cheap 2D animationi didnt notice anything wrong with it, and id prefer it over CG, even if the CG was on the same level as girls band cry. The simple notion that people feel the need to bring up that a show is in CG, should go to show what peoples preferences are
>>4187569>would really want to know how you find 2D to be just as fake as CG.Because it's still animation, not real life.>i didnt notice anything wrong with itIt's very basic, and the designs look ugly in the style used for the anime (again, I don't know if that's the designs from the LNs cause I haven't read them yet), I was hoping for more, hopefully Sasayaku will satisfy me on this front.>should go to show what peoples preferences areThat's just cause fully CG anime is rare, most people are used to poor CG used in the background of regular 2D anime, Studio Orange has been redeeming CG anime for years now, I have never said "Girls Band Cry look great for a CG" anime, I've just said "Girls Band Cry looks great", cause it's 2024, there's zero reason for finding it weird.
Shite, posted a whole post in the wrong thread Anyway I bring you fags Teren Mikami version of what is yuri >A believer that all emotions directed from one girl to the next—affection, the desire to murder, friendship, rivalry, you name it, are classified as yuri.
>>4187571>Because it's still animation, not real life.this is fucking dumb. Are you pretending to be dumb or do you genuinely not understand what i mean by fake? a ghibli movie and a ps1 cutscene are both animated, but one looks fake, the other does not. The immersion is lessened because you are constantly reminded that you are watching fake characters, and have a harder time feeling immersed because of oddities in the animation>It's very basic, and the designs look ugly in the style used for the animeif you want designs to be more detailed and look closer to that of the manga, then why would you prefer it in CGI?the models will looks LESS detailed, and further from the 2D drawn art of the manga>cause it's 2024, there's zero reason for finding it weirdthe shadows of the characters and the environment dont even match, the environment and the characters arent equally detailed, and a lot of the environments dont even look like they match the artstyle. It looks good for CG standards, great even, but i still would still say it looks good DESPITE the CG animation, not because of itpic related is a shot where the characters look really out of place, especially in the more realistic background. looks like one of those books you get as a kid, with backgrounds in it that came with stickers to place in them. There was a really good example a bit before the 14 minute mark of the episode with all the students in the classroom, but it wouldve taken too long to censor out all the men to make it safe to upload

>>4187552>>4187569>>4187571>>4187575It's called the Uncanny Valley. As things become more lifelike/similar to humans, we become more critical and disturbed if the depiction of humanity isn't perfect. That's the whole reason Pixar didn't make a story starring human characters until their animation leveled up enough that their humans didn't move and look like horror animatronics. 3DCG gets shat on because there's a much higher bar for things to look "good" and most nip studios aren't there yet.
>>4187321Did she use ai? Wtf are those hands
My demands for Ave Mujika:1. Only 0.025% of runtime allowed for Sakiko and only to remind how bad and evil she is2. 75% of scenes about Anon and her conquering Mujikas and saving them (except Sakiko)3. 10 obligatory scenes in every episodes of Taki getting cuckedThen and only then it would be a good season...
>>4187571>"Girls Band Cry look great for a CG" anime>"Girls Band Cry looks great"Uhh, both statements are quite undeniably wrong though.Just look at >>4187292 and compare it to some actually good modern CG like most idol sketches in Love Live Niji, or even cheaper examples like most of Bang Dream/D4DJ stuff.You can absolutely make good or at least passable looking CGI nowadays, but Girls Band Cry just looks amateurish.
>>4187594I would like to see more Mutsumi bullying.

>>4187614It looks better, you delusional fanboyAnd also, looks better than what Toei'd do with 2D if modern Precure is any indication (Precure has been looking pretty mediocre for years outside of important episodes like finisher and Cure debuts and fights vs generals and the final boss)
https://twitter.com/Yaku_yuki/status/1779063563824582850So is it yuri or not?
>>4187619>>4187617If you tell me you can't see the difference, you're either lying or blind:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaz__GPjAqwGBC looks straight out of Koikatsu, it even uses the stereotypical weird 3D hair physics from the first generation of CGI works.
Just kiss her already Nina.
>>4187623You are confusing 3D that wants to pretend it's limited-animation 2D in order to make camera movement less expensive in dance sequences with 3D that wants to be 3D from that start and plays to its own strengths with lots of movement on the screen at once instead of mimicking 2D cinematography.
>>4187623The one blind is you GBC is among the best CG works, LL looks shit in comparison. Typical anime CG. If you want shit CG, Rinkai's races and all of Highspeed Etoile are right there.
>>4187626>instead of mimicking 2D cinematographyExplain all the lengthy static camera angles then.
>>4187629Now you're just nitpicking because you want to shitpost about GBCIf you defend LL, D4DJ, BD or any other CG, you've no rigtht to shit on GBC. Only true 2D supremacists who also hate the CG in those can shit on GBC and not be hypocrites
>>4187622Sounds like he's taking the Bandai approach.
>>4187629that looks like game cinematics to me
>>4187631Why yes, all 3DCG anime made thus far is shit except for The First Slam Dunk.
>>4187631>If you defend LL, D4DJ, BD or any other CG, you've no rigtht to shit on GBCAnon, the formers look good (at least the modern iterations), the latter doesn't, it's that simple.I'm not going to pretend otherwise because you're so easily offended when someone dares point out that something you like has obvious shortcomings.
>>4187635>you're so easily offended when someone dares point out that something you like has obvious shortcomings.This is you defending your sacred cows (LL, and others) while shitting on GBCGBC looks better than them. If you want to shit on it, be consistent instead of trying to defend the shittier CG in your favourite shows. You just end up looking like a hypocrite
>>4187631>GBC isn't trying to look like 2D anime!>looks like it is though>that's nitpicking!
>>4187622A writer needing 50 years to explain what yuri is is like a mathematician taking 50 years to explain 2+2. We can get into abstract hypotheticals about empty fields but ultimately the answer's pretty simple.
>>4187636I'm not a big fan of any of those other series though, I think you're confusing this discussion with some kind of fan war and letting go of objectivity.
Sisters, take it to /a/.
>>4187541Is this yuri yet?The last time I read it, it's has too much accounting autism, even though I'm an accountant myself.
>>4187622Ok, I just lost all hope that this would go maintext for the main couple; the new girl will be 'yuri crush' levels, and that's the most we're getting.
>>4187629I'm not sure what you think needs to be or even can be explained, unless you think "not mimicking" means "always doing the exact opposite of".
>>4187651Have you stopped beating your wife?
>>4187638You're nitpicking to claim it is when it isn't>>4187644Objectivity is admitting GBC looks better than those. And hating them if you want to hate GBCHating on GBC CG while wanting to defend LL, D4DJ or BD is "letting go of objectivity" so you can shit on the new show while not having to shit on beloved shows. It's hypocrisy
>>4187651>>4187656Shut the fuck up, retarded doomposter.
>>4187656Why hope for maintext in any non-ecchi originals?WFW was an exception and a miracle Maintext is the territory of adaptations. Most of them with mediocre or bad visuals
>>4187666No, hetshitter.
>>4187663It's called insight, feel free to screenshot my post.
>>4187668It's not insight when you say the same thing about every anime discussed here every season. That's just throwing mud at the wall.
>>4187669I don't though? I began expecting Gundam would go maintext since around episode 8 of season 1.
>"insert group I don't like here" is an evil hetshitter and wants hetPlease stopThis doesn't make any sense. How is shitting on hetshitters or wanting maintext wanting het?
>>4187668>feel free to screenshot my postIt's too early for that. I'll wait until you get to the point in your delusions where you start making "insightful" posts about how all girls end up with guys.
>>4187673What my 'insight' is telling me now is that you acknowledge what I predicted will most likely come to pass, thanks for your reply.
>literally no one promised you an explicit yuri>insightful anon makes insightful posts about how it will never be explicit yuri
>>4187675Sorry for having hope?
There are anons that still believe some random anime original is committing to full explicit yuriSeriously how dumb can you be? It's not a thing, it doesn't happen like ever. Just enjoy them for what they are and make your own canon.

>>4187677>it doesn't happen like everThere's no need to lie. There are a few in the last few years. I love both maintext and subtext so I don't mind either way and just enjoy every show for what it is.

Jellyfish is yuriGBC is yuriShuumatsu Train is yuriSeiyuu Radio is yuriDeal with it.
>It's not yuri if they're not having sex in the first episode/first ten pagesWhy are /u/ like this?
>>4187690The audience is supposed to conclude for themselves that they have confessed their love (in the romantic sense) to each other. I mean, like, people who haven't even confessed to each other wouldn't get married (probably). So it's kind of a maintext, but it's kind of offscreen and the viewer has to read between the lines, as in the case of a subtext. But it's totally explicit. But it's offscreen. Anyway, it is very difficult, it is better not to seriously think about such things.
>>4187622Based on yuri mastery
>>4187692>Why are /u/ like this?/u/ is not like that, just one samefagging falseflagger who fantasizes that in any yuri anime a cute boy would appear and take all the girls is like that. Dumb cryptoyume...
>>4187690>what do two girls marrying each other have to do with yuri?
>>4187693Imagine you meet two married women. They have rings, they’re described as each other’s wives. Would you call this an implied relationship? Is it complicated?
>>4187690So you're saying that as long as it's a Gundam ending, it's reasonable to hope for anime originals to have it, correct?Guess I'm safe then since I was just hoping for the MCs to get married in Jellyfish.
>>4187693The marriage is confirmed on-screen. You're a retard. It's not complicated at all.
>>4187688Name a single maintext original that isn't Gundam
>subtext marriageWhat will these wacky anons come up with next?
Someone mislabeled this anthology as yuri, how do I report it?https://mangadex.org/title/e7d79572-4b27-4c1e-befa-3d310e7c81fe/yurikon
>>4187701If anything, that post isn't talking about the wedding being left off-screen.
>>4187706So?. Mio asked Suletta to never lose at the end of S1. Suletta herself was fantasizing about having the very best dresses at their wedding in S2 (before being sabotaged). There are moments where you can see their feelings clearly, that people arbitrarily decided "this doesn't count", because anything less explicit than MahoAko doesn't count, apparentlyAnd timeskip, they're explicitly married and still "doesn't count". Regardless of execution, it was maintext. It was explicit. It wasn't subtext.
>>4187708Anon, you don't get it, they could've just married each other because they're good friends!
If SasaKoi bores me, I'lll say nothing counts and it's not yuri and mangatards are retarded. After all, it only counts if I arbitarily like it or if it is MahoAko levels of explicit. If a girl doesn't look at another girl's pussy on-screen, it won't count

>>41877236 years agoNanoha got up to StrikerS (S1 in 2004, StrikerS in 2007) in half that time. Doesn't sound like there's many originals that go beyond subtext. Maintext is still reserved for adaptations
>>4187710>MahoAko levels of explicitBut even that isn't enough to call it yuri, according to our resident schizos.
>>4187727Yes, I'm sure people are complaining about an obscure characters from 20+ years ago is less know.>>4187792Well anon, we already learned this thread that gay marriage is not explicit yuri, so it maoes sense that girls messing aroundnwith each other would also not be explicit yuri.
>>4187594>scenes about AnonMe?
>>4187541There's no way that this is a real manga.
>>4187795>Shipping in my CGDCT show?>Oh no no no no>It's just friendship okay?>Now that we said that we will be 10 times more popular than bocchi
>>4187622>this guy only refused to answer>schizos already making up shit about how it's just friendship or confirmed not yuri
>>4187815Whether this is the case or not, this is why most companies forbid staff from answering questions like this
>>4187815He didn’t refuse to answer, he said yuri is hard to define but it does feature strong feelings between girls. You should know by now that means it’ll be a heavy subtext anime that won’t cross the line but also isn’t worth complaining about. Realistically it’s the best you can hope for from an original, and we do have explicit yuri anime this season so I hope no one is seriously worked up over this.
>>4187622I have added this thread to bookmarks in order to reread it when once again (thanks to you all, of course) I forget that it is possible to talk about such topics in peace, cheerfully, without tantrums and insults.

>aishiteru not daisukiSo much for the doomposting.
I'm sure it's a joke. I mean, not even every explicit show has something like that. Don't raise your expectations for nothing.
>>4187840>>4187841I just don't care anymore to even fight about this, it means nothing to me now
>>4187843It should mean something. It's a declaration of love from a girl to another, using "aishiteru". It's very explicit to me
>>4187848It doesn't mean anything to him anymore because he already lost.
>>4187840>>4187841>>4187848It's obviously said in a non-serious manner. I'm not saying those feelings aren't or won't become real, but in this particular scene it was just an exaggerated way to say "thank you".Now this girl. She's 100% serious. And 100% ending as a third wheel. And that's so sad.
>>4187854She even looks like a yaya...
>>4187854See, now instead of enjoying the fun subtext yuri show, I'm going to start doing the same mental gymnastics as you and argue that no this girl is not serious at all, because she places a portrait of her "beloved" next to a portrait of some composer or pianist. And that sort of tells us something about the nature of her feelings.But I certainly won't do anything like that, as I want to enjoy a fun subtext yuri show, not look for reasons to be offended.
>>4187861In that context and this early on it would still be the same shippy moment.
>>4187871Nah, you will say it's 100% het and she's totally serious and this is mocking yuri and Japan hates lesbians or something.
The annoying part about romance anime is that it's impossible to post every frame of the anime on /u/.
>>4187884You could compress the entire episode into an animated collage webm.
>>4187884Post the frame with a male in it so you will get banned, then you won't have to post again. This way you can save your time and go read your yuri backlog.
>>4187879Certain things are better suited have a niche following, and MahoAko is one of them. Seeing people talk about it on the mainstream makes me want to go bungee jumping with a rope around my neck.
>>4187890Episode 1? Damn these girls move fast.
Ep1 exceeded my expectations by a lot
>>4187890I honestly can't be excited for the anime because of the shitshow the manga turned into.
>>4187897Opposite for me.I can't get excited for it because the first arc of the manga was so incredibly dull. It only gets half-way decent later.
>>4187897>Filtered by ShihoShe won.
>>4187898The first arc is the only redeeming quality this story has.>>4187899Shiho was actually a decent character until she backtracked on her own convictions when she learned Aki was willing to date her, ignoring the fact that Aki was only willing to date her because the girl she actually liked got with someone else. I said it before, I'll say it again. Aki and Shiho getting together ruined both of their characters. They both just look like fucking losers now.
>>4187622everytime this discourse starts I remember this
>>4187900>Shiho was actually a decent character until she backtracked on her own convictions when she learned Aki was willing to date herShe always loved her, she was in full denial as a cope mechanism.>ignoring the fact that Aki was only willing to date her because the girl she actually liked got with someone else.People move on from heartbreaks.To me it just sounds like you were filtered.The storytelling's actually been really good for ShihoAki's arc.
>dumbfucks angry that Shiho acted like a heartbroken teenagerActually a good angst story in a yuri manga for once and people still have shit taste and complain
Hello again /u/, the Spring Cup qualifiers are continuing today as our team will be playing against /wg/ in 15 minutes. A win against them will confirm the team's place in the main Cup two weeks from now. Check the links below if you don't know what this is about and are curious. Hope to see you there.https://pastebin.com/U81NNtuy
>>4187907>She always loved herNever said Shiho never loved Aki. She just looks like a loser for being so obviously picked up on the rebound. What I'm trying to say is, what changed? What was the big change here that makes Aki want to bang Shiho? Yori rejecting her doesn't matter, because being rejected shouldn't have all of a sudden shifted the way Aki felt towards Shiho. Shiho confessing to Aki just mind controlled Aki into wanting bang her? Because that's really what happens. And Shiho, contrary to everything she was shown to be up until that point, was so weak-willed that she still goes for it.TL;DR>Aki is a loser because she's just picking Shiho up on the rebound because Shiho is low hanging fruit>Shiho is a loser because her whole personality for almost 30 chapters was literally just for show, letting Aki pick her up on the rebound knowing damn well Aki's behavior throughout the whole story is contradictory to wanting to bang herBut I get it. It's one of those works where the entire cast is paired with each other, no matter how retarded it looks

>>4187924>>4187877
>>4187924I'm not interested in the show at all but "outright rejecting" is really not what happened in that post

I think it's funny how when some writer or whatever wants to be obscure about whether it's yuri or not and then he goes "uhhhhh depends on what you think is yuri" which is something that debunks "yuri is everything"fags, the implications are that the first thing they think when they talk about yuri are lesbians
>>4187622It's a strange thing to tweet at all, usually they just don't even bring up the subject, sounds more like a "maybe but I don't want to give spoilers" situation to me
>>4187925always have been
>>4187911Aki was simply very obtuse to Shiho's feelings, I don't think that's unlikely to happen. She acted as a wingwoman and helped Yori and Himari get together. If you asked on /a/ they'd say she's a cuck, but I'll say that made her a great character for acting in a mature way, contrary to Shiho who threw an immature fit, but which also made her a great character, because this flaw makes her feel more real, and not a single dimensional character. But I digress.Shiho confessing to Aki (and again, Himari made it happen by showing a lot of assertiveness, which also makes her a great character!) made the latter open her eyes and see Shiho in a different way. Her love shifted, it happens all the time. I don't think that's to be considered being a loser.
>>4187909Very clean win this time. Good job team!
Did Whispering air
>>4187909Baiser and redpilled
>>4187937Probably expecting too much from this manga, but I am kinda hoping it will end up blowing up between them with Aki realizing she's just using Shiho as a rebound.
So, what are the consequences for Yurihime when SasaKoi outsells all of their recent adaptions? Even more moderately boring romance with a moderate amount of drama and without any controversial themes?
Anyone else feeling surprisingly unfulfilled by this season, despite the amount of (possibly) yuri-friendly stuff?>Seyuu radioJarring animation quality.>KurageJust got the bad news.>Shuumatsu trainIkemen regular character that the MC calls a "hottie".>Yuru campEven less yuri vibes than the previous season.>RinkaiAwful CG bike races and nothing on the characters side.>SasakoiActually fine so far, but I had to drop the manga early on out of exasperation so I don't know how long I'll last with this one.I'm even considering watching girls band cry despite its looks just to see if it's not a case of overhype as usual, which isn't something I'd normally do in a season where I'm following six series.
>>4187909And with that 5-2 win, our promotion is secured! Hope you enjoyed watching that match. I wasn't sure we had what it takes, but everyone woke up in the 2nd half. We have one more match in the qualifiers against /an/ tomorrow, and then we'll take part in the Spring Cup itself 2 weekends from now. Here's hoping the team can maintain this momentum going forward.
>>4187956You're trying way too hard to act like the jellyfish thing is some sort of death sentence and not just a creator musing. I'm just saying.
>>4187956No, I'm pretty happy with this season. Sucks to be you though!
>>4187959>some sort of death sentenceIt's not and I don't expect it to be bad or anything, but I don't expect it to be remarkable on the yuri side anymore, which is what actually matters to me.
>>4187956>Kurage>Just got the bad news.What bad news?
You've been forewarned >>4183874
>>4187956Considering how much hype there was, I am pretty disappointed.The only anime I'm probably watching to the end is Yuru Camp, and only because it's seems a shame to drop it when I've already watched it for two seasons.Jellyfish has to impress heavily in the next few eps for me to pick it back up.
>>4187962Author was asked 'is this yuri?' and the reply was, more or less, 'I can't say'
Am I the only one who doesn't care at all? I'll watch sasakoi but I don't even start shows without knowing if they're yuri first, I don't get people who are desperate and keep watching anything who looks close to yuri and then proceed to get disappointed like a retard and act all depressed like a bitch on this general
>>4187965The reply was "well, I'm not sure if I can call it yuri, but this girl sure has strong feelings towards another!".Except that the girl in question will obviously go nowhere with her "yuri", so I'm not impressed.
>>4187956>>Yuru camp>Even less yuri vibes than the previous season.What? New season confirmed Rin used her cool grandpa's words to cheer up Nadeshiko in S2 finale and she keeps thinking of the Kirby during her solo camp trips. Also the new childhood friend NTR arc is about to begin. Stop doomposting nee-san
>>4187956I would just like the waiter to know they gave me a triple order of musical yuri by accident.
>>4187913Loli
>>4187956>Ikemen regular character that the MC calls a "hottie".All of your complaints are retarded, but this one in particular is so fucking braindead that I have no choice but to write your post off as trolling.
>>4187966>proceed to get disappointed like a retard and act all depressed like a bitch on this generalThis literally never happens, shitposters only pretend it does.
>>4187960Based happy anom
>>4187976Who would've thought a girl expressing attraction for a boy would irk a yurifag.
>>4187966'Yuri brainrot' isn't always meant as an endearing term.
>>4187967If a director noted a boy and a girl in a series have strong feelings towards each other, everyone would naturally call it het. Stop with the double standards already jesus chrust
>>4187956No, the only shows that dissapointed me were Seiyuu Radio (this one feels like a bland Citrus AU fanfic) and HS Etoile. Regarding Shuumatsu Train, MC just repeats what she heard from that old lady and the gyaru feels like a tryhard gyaru to me and the Yoru no Kurage thing it is stupid unless you were expecting Yoru no Kurage to be the new Hina Logi
>>4187988You're missing the point, even if next episode confirms that the new girl is madly in romantic love with the blonde main character, it's obvious that it won't be requited since she's paired with the other main character.But since this girl's feelings are what the author used to represent the yuri in his work, it's obvious the main pair won't have any concrete developments on that front.
>>4187988Some people still think that yuri=romance as a genre, so a the actual equivalent will be asking if SnK is a romance or not if we talk about het.
>>4187989>unless you were expecting Yoru no Kurage to be the new Hina LogiWhy wouldn't I?Hina Logi was the previous original by the same studio, and Kurage had a teaser suggesting a romantic pairing, there was every reason to be at least a bit hopeful.
>>4187990That seems like an extremely sideways way to interpret that to me. It's not a promise on how future character dynamics will go.
>>4187956>>4187989I might be retarded but I remember some sisters said the Seiyuu Radio was actually yurib8 in the LNs or one of the girls were interested in a guy last year (?) Can anyone enlighten me pls?
>>4187994I don't see what's so sideways about it, if the author had planned for the main couple to become romantically involved, it would be pretty unnatural of him to not even mention them when questioned about yuri, and instead just cite the third wheel.I guess you could interpret it as him not wanting to give away spoilers, but that sounds like wishful thinking to me.
>>4187993>there was every reason to be at least a bit hopeful.This comment would make more sense if the director outright denied the yuri, but that didn't happen.
>>4187997Um yes, why would the author openly be like yep they'll be romantic later? That's a gigantic spoiler to drop during episode 2. It'd be weirder if he DID say that honestly.
>>4187999Then the natural thing to do would've been to not answer the question.
>>4188000It's an interview. Musing about the character dynamics makes way more sense then bluntly going no comment. The point is to talk about the series and generate chatter, not just give everything away.
>>4188000>director doesn't answer the question>see! they're ignoring people asking if it's yuri. that definitely means it's not going to be yuriCan we at least wait until the main drama of the series starts before declaring if no romance is going to happen? While they did portray that fan's affection as somewhat weird, it was also portrayed in several positive ways from helping her become better at piano to become more assertive.
>>4188001>It's an interviewIt was a random tweet about the next episode, nothing was forcing him to bring up anything that was asked.And as I said, I of course can't deny the possibility that he was deliberately misleading with this, but it sounds like wishful thinking to me.
>>4188002>see! they're ignoring people asking if it's yuri. that definitely means it's not going to be yuriI bet the director of GWitch was asked if it was going to be yuri about a million times, but I've never seen anyone claim that the lack of an answer meant anything, and there were a lot of claims at the time.Imagine instead if he came out and said: >Is this yuri, you ask? Well, maybe you could call it that when next episode Chuchu shows some strong feelings towards Nika!Since everyone was obviously asking because of the main pair, they would've immediately drawn the same conclusions I've been drawing in this case.
>>4187982>expressing attractionAnd that's how I know you're retarded and/or trolling. It's obvious that you couldn't find anything bad to say about Shuumatsu Train, so you had to stretch harder than a rubberband and resort to the fucking subs to shitpost about it.
>>4188006>resort to the fucking subsThen enlighten us anon, post the japanese script.
>>4188003Deliberately misleading with what? How on earth are you interpreting 'I'm not sure I'd describe it as yuri but these girls sure have strong feelings for one another' as anything other than what's written? That's not a promise certain characters will/won't end up together or that the show won't have yuri elements. Some of you people, my god.
>>4188007She said ikemen, you can fucking hear her. The fact your fixating this much on a single word without taking into account anything about her or how she said means that you're either more retarded than a braindead rat, or you're just acting in bad faith, because no one with an ounce of common sense would have called this "expressing attraction".
>>4188008>>4188009Uhm, this may be unusual since we're on 4chan, but I have to admit I was wrong and you're both right.I had just hastily checked the Kurage tweet with google translate and somehow got the impression that he singled out the new girl when speaking about yuri, while actually reading it in japanese made me realize he used a separate sentence that referred to the feelings of all the girls in general.And I didn't even pay attention to what was actually said by the MC in Shuumatsu Train, I can see now that it was the usual het-centric translation that fooled me.So double fail for me, yay.
>>4188005Thats kinda dishonest seeing how Gundam is a huge franchise and its owner company even tried to degay it during airing lmao
>>4188009>She said ikemen, you can fucking hear herVery ironic considering that's not what she said and you can fucking hear her saying "ikeoji", which does not mean "hottie".
>>4188011Great, well there we go.
>>4188014As far as I understand it's like a more specifically grown up version of Ikemen? Either way it seems to put some distance between them due to age, which is a very positive sign.
>>4188005People said things along the lines of:>if they meant for it to be yuri, they would have said so from the start.
So doomposters are latching on to the "I can't say the definition of yuri" comment by the writer but purposefully ignore the "this is a heavy love story" comment by the same writer?
>>4188031Yes.
If DESCRIBING someone's appearance is a definite proof that something is het, does that mean Girls Band Cry is explicit yuri since Nina described her bully(female) as "bijin"?
I'm not watching anything before full confirmation it's yuri however I've stopped caring about "what means yuri" talk by authors, otherside picnic and watanare's author both went with some cryptic "every emotion between women is yuri" but the stories they write are about lesbians in the end,
Can someone summarize the last 30 posts of argument
>>4188039Doomposter claims nothing is yuri.
>>4188039The jellyfish show is yuri basically.
>>4188034Tbf we don't know if her sheltered self didn't mistake attraction with something else so sye acted like a little boy with her first crush and did some stupid thing to that "stupid hot girl"
Human form of the cat pair
>>4187956
>>4188018It's a combination of "ikemen" and "ojisan"= "ikeoji".
>>4187996It's just the LNs not progressing the relationship. No het. Just static as hell
>>4188039Guy going "stop liking things, it's over take the black pill"
I don't know how much people care about a yuri chapter of a het manga around here but herehttps://mangadex.org/chapter/380a6cd5-5964-4bbf-b599-88a553ee9ebb
>>4187996>Seiyuu RadioNo het, other than stuff that looks like it for more Seiyuu drama. At the same time don't expect anything concrete for yuri either
>>4188065No one is interested in your FFM fetish
As someone who's loving Girls Band Cry, is MyGO worth checking out?
>>4188031I think we are all tired of staff saying shit and then turns out they were full of shit, personally I don't take any of those wording around yuri any serious anymore because it's pretty clear to me that whether there will be yuri or not, they just are afraid of outright saying it and having some sort of backlash.>>4188037It's because opinions aside both of then are veey aware marketing something as yuri and not delivering is asking to not sell.
>>4188072yes
>>4188065I'm not gonna read this whole thing but it's fun imagining people getting mad at this "nooooo not the yurishit in my precious manga"Lol, also pretty hot but retarded as usual with hetshit
>>4188037Because they know yuri = romance in the end, unlike coward type authors
>>4187901It is not insane. Two straight girls could possibly not like each other and be compelled to have sex.As long as there are no feelings it is just porn.But when one of them thinks "wow her eyelashes are so long" it becomes yuri.>inb4 asumi chanAll girls in asumi chan love each other from the first sight, shut up
>>4187934Call emergency and tell them you are having a stroke
I think I just don't really like Yoru/Jellyfish's character designs on a fundamental level. The faces are too round, eyes too far apart, etc. The piano scene was very nice though.
Any story where the lolicon sees the light and marries her bestie?
>>4188081I wrote in somewhat of a weird way but it's perfectly easy to understand what I mean and I don't think I made any actual grammar mistake.
>>4188072Just remember the first 3 episodes aired together. And the OTP doesn't kick in until episode 10. And the sequel is still a year away.
>>4188080
>>4188104
>>4187908I just don't like they became the main focus and the couple that was the reason to read the manga in the first place became background characters. Specially because the drama of the main couple was much more tamer than Shiho's.
Is it any wonder people latch onto subtext originals when any maintext adaptation gets sourcetards bitching about whatever they hate about the source?At least with originals, you can’t have sourcetards, regardless
Sasakoi looks so cheap, it makes me wonder if anime should exist
We really need more JK yuri ecchi. A new series about JKs fooling around with different partners in school. A mix between Otome no Teikoku and Nadeshiko Hiyori.
>>4188184>We really need more JK yuri ecchiOnly if it's for female gaze
>>4188183People will post shit like this and wonder why people latch onto stuff like Yoru Kurage, LycoReco or Gundam instead of the same maintext adaptations they keep bitching about over and over
>>4188188Not him but you're saying people latch on to subtext because some trolls keep whining about maintext? Are you saying you're a easily manipulated idiot?
>>4188182Sourcefags can bitch about anything and everything they want, but they are the ones who provide the popularity and material returns.Looking at something like this it becomes painfully obvious that the people in the industry who make original shows, and those who give approval and money to do so, are basically saints preaching to the little birds with little hope of any payoff. In fact, why think about some original directorial approaches, visual design, and other nonsense of little interest to anyone, when you can secure praise simply by frame-by-frame redrawing the source material. And the more literal this redrawing is, and the less creative trace of the people who made the adaptation, the higher the praise will be.
>>4188065Unless it ends in yuri, I'm not gonna bother.
>>4188189I mean, if all the maintext sources are apparently so shit, why watch? There's no hope. And they also look like shit, right? Why not watch the better looking subtext showss instead?All I'm saying is these sourcetards putting maintext down don't get to complain when people decide to talk about subtext instead.
>>4188084I don't know any, but now that you mention it, I wouldn't mind if Onee-san wa Joshi Shougakusei ni Kyoumi ga Arimasu ended this way since Yuu is best girl
>>4188195Why are you like this, you sound depressing
>>4188190>the less creative trace of the people who made the adaptation, the higher the praise will beNo shit? Don’t fix what isn’t broken.The only additions I want to the source material are voice, color, and animation.
>>4187999Holy shit, this level of cope is giving me LWA flashbacks. Please stop.That being said, I feel safe assuming that Jellyfish will be pretty gay, but ultimately ambiguous. And maybe that's okay.
>>4188212>Please stopAfter you stop being retarded about a tweet that basically only said "I have no comment about what is yuri or not yuri."
>>4188204Ask the sourcetards always complaining about adaptations when without them, we’d only have a single maintext show every 4 or 6 yearsPeople only get to shit on subtext because adaptations exist
You know who else celebrates that tweet as a confirmation that Jellyfish is not yuri? Anti-yuri schizos.
>>4187313>>4187314>>4187315I read it in the end, was a cute lil series. Reminded me of classic romcoms, with non stop wars about whos best girl. Shame it was that short, makes it difficult to be super invested in either of the love interests.
>>4188216I Think I understand the point you're trying to make but you're really fucking it up, there's no "sourcetards", there's trolls who pic on everything they canif it's unconfimed yuri? "its yuribait" trollingconfirmed yuri? "show sucks, its bad because this and that"no troll talked about how g witch sucked ass for several episodes because they had "it's not yuri" until the very end
>>4188219This, honestly. Shit happens every season, they just find some retarded point to latch onto. See: the """"genderbend"""" shit with MagiRevo.
>>4188220the big problem here is that people like the anon i'm talking to decide to do stuff like naming them "sourcetards" "genderbenderfags" or "main/subtext" fags or "kissfags" or whatever else when it's just the same tired old trolls with nothing better to do that should be ignored and left to rot on /a/.
>>4188205There is such a profession as a director, and their job is exactly to fix what is not broken and also what is broken. If Bocchi's director hadn't decided to fix the source material, which isn't really broken, would this adaptation have been so good and so popular? I don't think so. And in the case of SasaKoi, the source material is exactly broken, it's a boring romance with the only virtue that it's about two girls, whether it's about a guy and a girl or a girl and a space slug, hardly anyone buys it and reads it for 8 volumes. And now it's being turned word for word, frame by frame into a boring anime without trying to bring anything new to it. The song seems to be quite okay, thanks for that.
Dangerous.
>>4188224It's fine if you don't like "basic romance" but stop being bitter about it, to me you sound like you're just obsessed with depressing or edgy stuff and it gets you mad when the show doesn't pander to you
>>4188222>decide to do stuff like naming themWhat's wrong with that? That's how language works.
>>4188224>One of the most popular and well praised yuri series ever>It's broken because it's a common romance storyI kinda am getting the vibe the problem is not Sasakoi but (you)
>>4188226Do you really think someone who smiles like this can be dangerous?
>>4188229This.
>>4188230
>>4188228The anon doing it is a well know attention whore who will take any bait just so he can post his embarassing walls of text against the trolls
>>4188228I'd call you clever for this pathetic post but I'm not a liar.
>>4188227Well of course the person who cites Bocchi as an example of a good adaptation is obsessed with depressing or edgy stuff, how could it be otherwise.
>>4188224>BocchiOne success versus hundreds of shitty adaptations that no one is happy with.>SasaKoi>broken, no one buys itDelusional. You not liking it doesn’t mean it’s bad.
>>4188235Didn't even read your other posts, bocchi is subtext and Sasakoi is maintext, Sasakoi is better and you're retarded.>>4188236>broken, no one buys itTrolls tend to undermine popularity and success.
>>4188224>good and popularSalesfags should kill themselves
>>4188238>SalesfagsYou never learn do you
>>4188237>Sasakoi is betterDon't really care about the argument you people are having since I enjoy every yuri anime this season, but this is completely wrong.
>>4188240Maintext is better than subtext, always.
>>4188241Bocchi is a maintext lesbian.
>>4188242Yes, but without any maintext romance in the series so far, unlike SasaKoi
>>4188242Not denying that or saying that subtext isn't yuri, just saying the cold hard truth, subtext will never be better than maintext
>>4188243That's because Bocchi is not a romance manga. However, that is irrelevant. As a series, it is more entertaining than Sasakoi.
>>4188246That is subjectiveSasaKoi is objectively better yuri-wise (the only relevant measure) because it has maintext relationships
>>4188233>>4188234>Y-you are bad because you post, okay!?Wtf. I post in /u/ therefore I am.
>>4188247Well said
I can actually give you an example of a "basic romance" that:- I like- isn't boring- isn't depressing or edgy- has merits other than the fact that it's about two girls kyaah kawaiibut something tells me you wouldn't like it.And even if its hypothetical adaptation were to be done by a redrawer of panels from the manga rather than a director, the result would be boring shit.That was the point of the original post, not salesfagging, not encroaching on holy maintext, but arguing against the claim that an adaptation should follow the source verbatim, without adding any of the director's creativity.
im retarded, what caused kimura to change her tune exactly? was it that she remembered her fake name? made good on her word to watch her perform? or did she just realize that she was the same person underneath when she saw her trying to cheer her up?
>>4188250>but something tells me you wouldn't like it.Nta and I actually agree with everything you said. "Bad yuri" can exist too.Post examples, I am just curious.
....nobody is forcing you to like everything just because its yuridont make problems in your head to be mad about
As much I enjoyed Bocchi, it's just a fucking gag slice of life anime, stop talking like the director created a masterpiece, look at CSM and see what happens when the source content isn't a 4koma with barely any plot structure.Also, I would rather not take my luck with oldfag director deciding to be "creative" with a yuri series.
>>4188250You're a pretentious tard and shitting on the only source of maintesxtHope you don't bitch about subtext. You want muh creativity direction and good production that doesn't copypasta a manga? That's subtext terriotryStop shitting on maintext for retarded reasonsm or don't be surprised when people discuss "not yuri" stuff like Lyco or Kurage which have the better production and shit you ask for
>>4188256But he has to like some yuriThe problem is Maintext adaptations? Source is bad, staff is just doing boring copypasta, no creativity. Fanservice is for evil male gazers, not true yuri fansOriginal subtext? Not yuri. Fuck off. All girls will like men, shitty CG. There's no yuri these people actually like.
>>4188257CSM is good according to these creativity and sakuga circles. The director did nothing wrong and his idea was right. Nakayama's an innocent saint and the only problems are production issues that result because of Otsuka (MAPPA CEO)'s shit scheduling and rushing production. But the show is still good to these creativity and sakuga circles and anyone who complains is a pleb who doesn't get it
>>4188258>>4188261>>4188262You know, anti-critic aspie, if you spent half the time you spend on your autistic breakdowns practicing reading you might actually manage some reading comprehension at some point. Then you wouldn't respond to posts with inane and unrelated ranting all the time and people could actually take you seriously.
>>4188257>I would rather not take my luck with oldfag director deciding to be "creative" with a yuri series.What are you so afraid of? Compare the flashback scenes in YoruKura and WataYuri, for example. I think it's pretty obvious that it's executed better. Would it have hurt if the director of WataYuri had allowed himself a little more creative freedom (assuming he had the talent for this sort of thing, yes) and stepped away from the source material to seamlessly weave the flashback into the main narrative, rather than just following the sequence of pages? Please don't go on about how the former is subtext and the latter is maintext and therefore better by default, I'm talking purely about the technical and creative side of things.
>>4188257The director didn't create a masterpiece because Hamaji already made it a masterpiece.
>>4188258>You want muh creativity direction and good production that doesn't copypasta a manga? That's subtext terriotryHoly shit, what a W for subtextchads.Straight from the kissfag's mouth even
>>4188262CSM's anime sucked balls. Dandadan's anime adaptation is looking to be what CSM's should have looked like, and both are equally shallow but interesting shonens. You can be creative and lack skill to execute your ideas or even have bad taste (in the case of the CSM director). Bocchi and K-ON are examples of 4koma that were elevated into great anime thanks to their studios/directors and given solid music that literally wasn't possible in manga format. The SasaKoi adaptation is just passable right now but it's clear it has a middling budget so even if it had a super talent director there just isn't anything they'd be able to do about the animation quality. With how amazing the manga's art it's obvious why manga readers could be disappointed.
>>4188264You are just playing director here, in truth we have no idea if he would be talented for it, much less what he would decide to be creative about.I would rather play safe than try to win the lottery.
>>4188250>but arguing against the claim that an adaptation should follow the source verbatimA shitty argument when you ignore the pile of adaptations ruined by unfaithfulness to source material and only focus on the few successful ones like BtR.>director’s creativityCan fuck off. The author’s creativity when writing the series is plenty.
>>4188263Given that "critic" = yurihater shitting on maintext and subtext who doesn't like anything and critcises everything, I wonder why "anti-critic" is bad here. Everyone should be anti-yurihatersTake your yuri hate to /a/
>>4188267Not a kissfag. I love subtext myself. I just want the actual kissfags and maintextfags to realize that whenever they shit on maintext adaptations because "manga/ln bad" or "shit budget" or "it's just a copypasta without enough creativity", they're pushing subtext shows that have those qualities like Lyco or YoruKuraYou can't shit on a maintext for lack of budget and then wonder why people flock to the subtext action show with better animation. If they want to defend maintext, they need to let go of muh animation and muh creative direction or whatever other demands
>>4188258>shitting on maintextWhat are you on about? I like WataYuri, Amayo no Tsuki, ZenKowa, Sankakkei no Kowashikata, Koi yori Aoku, Kaijuu Iro no Shima, Odoriba ni Skirt ga Naru and a bunch of other maintext yuri manga. I consider SasaKoi to be bland shit because it's bland shit, not because it's maintext.
>>4188269Don't disagree CSM sucked. But my point is, these pretentious people asking for creative adaptations instead of faithfulness defend itTo the creativetards (and sakugatards) Nakayama did nothing wrongThus, why people hate anyone pushing for "creative adaptation" because for every Bocchi or K-on, you get 40 CSMs and the CSMs will still be defended because muh creative directors can do nothing wrong
>>4188280I'm talking about anime here. And you've only mentioned as single other manga with adaptationSure defend your undapted mangas and keep shitting on the few maintext adaptations (only source of maintext anime), but know that you're pushing people to "less boring" subtext anime. If SaSakoi's not good enough, then gotta watch the subtexts, right?
>>4188280>ZenKowa>but no Kitakawa2/10 taste.
>>4188252Mainly the last one.

>>4188280>WataYuriIs it really maintext when they still arent together after 13+ volumes? Hell the Yaya of the series is closer to getting laid right now than the MC is.

>>4188295When will they introduce Mai's German girlfriend?
What kind of yuri fags constantly seethe about explicit yuri and call themselves "subtextchads"? Like wtf
>>4188305People shitposting to make the anti-subtext people seethe even more
>>4188305Please understand that the atmosphere of this internet forum is so cordial and friendly that it is hard for many to exist in it without covering themselves with 17 layers of irony.
>>4188303I am starting to suspect that Germans can't exist as girlfriends, only as yayas.
>>4188241Wrong.
>>4188217>Anti-yuri schizosRedundant.
>>4188299Not being submissive to lesbian demands is homophobic.It is known...
>>4188288Green manga
https://twitter.com/aktnhino920/status/1779437033624338835oooh, what manga is this?
>>4188327oh damn, it's been awhile
>>4188342And this artist is still totally obsessed with them.
>>4188376Very based, loyal to their favorite ship
Sasakoi relationships according to chinksI noticed that they always do one of those for yuri series
>>4188386I can't read chinese, please translate it for me.
>>4188339Love is a drug.
>>4188386I struggle to recognize Shiho when her inner bitch isn't showing.
>>4188191unfortunately looks pretty unlikely though I'll mention if it does
>>4188386because characters are actually characters in yuri rather than being accessories for the male MC
>>4188326I thought the essential zoomercore yuri is inkya gyaru, since the author is a zoomer too.
>>4188412both capture essence of tennagers: being annoying and slighly arroganttoo many teenagers in manga are a bit too kind
>>4187937>Shiho confessing to Aki made the latter open her eyes and see Shiho in a different way>Her love shiftedBut my point is WHY is this the case? Nothing in the whole work points to this being a logical occurrence for Aki. Why does Shiho's confession all of a sudden make Aki fall for her? Aki and Shiho were in the same band when Aki was crushing on Yori. She never saw Shiho in that way, so what happens to Aki for her love to shift? Because like I said, it makes no sense.
>>4188413>too many teenagers in manga are a bit too kindJap culture.
>>4188414Because what Shiho did actually worked, she distanced herself, broke her relationship with her, antagonized and teaser her, this made Aki aware of how much she was cared about Shiho if she was getting this hurt, when Shiho put a name in what she wanted from Aki, those feelings she already had started moving in that direction, though even as of the last chapters both of them are aware that Aki is still not there and that there is a chance she may never be.
How do I become as cool as Yori-senpai?
When should a lesbian prostitute retire? Would her madam give her any benefits?
>>4188430When she's too old for Taiyaki's tastes.
>>4188410She's literally the Yaya of course it's not gonna happen
>>4188413>teenagers: being annoying and slighly arrogantOnly for gen x aunties like you.Also inkya gyaru acts like bunch of extroverted dykes which I usually can't stand.
>>4188431So 50?
Hello again /u/, the Spring Cup qualifiers conclude today as our team will be playing its final match of the weekend against /an/ in 15 minutes. As always, check the links below if you don't know what this is about and are curious. Hope to see you there.https://pastebin.com/U81NNtuy
I don’t feel the urge to watch any shows this season like I did with Metallic Rouge >But SasaKoiI already read the manga
>>4188414Well to be more precise Aki doesn't see Shiho romantically yet, she did say so to her, but she agreed to start going out and see how it goes. She does care about Shiho, and that could turn into love. I mean, how the fuck can you not love Shiho, her dere form is the cutest.
>>4188453What about MR you found compelling and gave you the urge to watch it?
JK Taiyaki flirting with her friend's mom
>>4188447good luck
>>4188459It was an original and I like the buddy cop premise.
>>4188462>her friend's mom>not her ownThis Taiyaki is an impostor!
>>4188424Why does Sound Euphonium have a thread and this not?
>>4188476Nah, that's lore accurate Taiyaki. She talked about having a crush on one of her mom's friends at one point.
>>4188484Be the change you wanna see
>>4188484Just do it.
>>4188484I mean people talked about Whisper for years in Recent Releases
>>4188491>people talked about it for yearsSame applies to Baitphonium.
>>4188494This is a new show though. Anyway do feel free to make a Sasakoi thread if you want, it'll replace random porn thread #29 but good riddance.
>>4188447Sleepy game, guess the girls were taking it easy. Still on to the babbies, hopefully we can stay strong.
I need a card game like this
>>4188498I actually thought the exact same thing when I saw that art at first. I dunno how it'd really work though, like you equip straps and do sex damage to the women your opponent fields? While they try to do the same to yours?
>>4188484Muginos or any of the other usual suspectsNo point in making a thread before you know it's sustainable unless you just purposefully get off on catalog dumping. Now that the show's airing and artists are actually drawing stuff I don't think it's that weird if someone wants to go ahead and do it now.
welp this was a tottally winable match i will take this time to blame remake she ruin everything but the good thing is we are on spring lets hope stuff gets better there it will happend in 2 weeks so hope to see you there
>>4188484Because Hibike has a yuri pairing that even people without goggles or weird definitions of yuri can see.
>>4188510Who?
>>4188499Maybe like Pokemon TCG where you have a few lives, that you lose every time a Pokemon faints, here instead of damage could be the total pleasure points that character can take before cumming
>>4188501Better luck next time, see you there
>>4188521Sounds good. And characters would have stats to determine their battle effectiveness and all that. Would be kinda cute.
>>4188499Yeah, I suppose all characters could have HP/stamina, which is how much sex they can endure before passing out. And you can equip other sex toys like leash, strap, sexy costumes, whip, vibrator, etc to increase the damage, or do damage via actions like fingering and cunnilingus. And maybe each character could have some unique parameters like preferences and fetishes that make them weaker to certain weapons or actions than others. Like some take more damage from nipple stimulus, if the opponent is wearing a suit or has a bush
>>4188519Apparently that's the bloom into you mangaka
>>4188533She didn't take a break from the genre, she ditched it entirely
>>4188535>https://twitter.com/nakataniii/status/1442146813511811076Don't be such a drama queen. She said she would write yuri again.
>>4188535She'll probably be back, her manga flopped badly. But I don't think she'll find success here either, the yuri market has moved on, just normal well-written schoolgirl yuri is ten a penny these days.
>>4188547You've gotta be delusional, YagaKimi is STILL getting reprints.
>>4188495Porn is better than Sasako, tbqhfamalam.
>>4188551That's purely because it had the luck to become THE yuri manga. Anyone searching for "best yuri manga" or asking suggestions from normies, that's the first one that will crop up. It has basically become babby's first yuri mango.
>>4188533>The fact that she hates yuri so much
>>4188484It's easy to make a image dump thread when yuri is just a porn fetish to you.>>4188510Yes, the woman who said Bloom into you is not yuri totally don't has a weird definition of yuri
>>4188556Okay and what do you think the response would be when the author of THE yuri manga does another one?
>>4188559Lot of hype that will die down quite quickly when it's just another safe, boring yuri manga about schoolgirls.
>>4188558>yuri is just a porn fetish to you.Shitposter catchphrase detected.>don't hasBad English detected.One more strike and you're out.
>>4188561>defending BaitphoniumtardsUltra shitposter deteceted. You get all 3 strikes. Out
>>4188558>the woman who said Bloom into You is not yuriThat just shows how strong the yuri must be between Asuka and Kaori.>>4188557I was obviously joking with that comment.
Don't mind me, just wanna say Sasakoi anime overshadowed the shonenshit of this season Kaiju 8 so hard and nips seem to like this yuri show. Both yuri anime and Sasakoi stole their hype yesterday.
>>4188565Sasakoi hashtags*
>>4188562>BaitphoniumAnother tourist shitpost slang.Three strikes, you're out.
>>4188565>Kaiju 8 sNo surprise given that all the hype around this one evaporated long ago.
Are shippers battered women?>Maybe th-this time Hibikek will be nice to me! I can change her! Or maybe they just have a humiliation fetish idk
>>4188558>Yes, the woman who said Bloom into you is not yuri totally don't has a weird definition of yuriShe never said that.
>>4188546I'll believe it when I see it
>>4188565Damn, that's two seasons in a row.
>>4188567>Defending baitphonium and acting like you get to decide anything hereRetard
>>4188569They're outsiders who have been conditioned in the holes they crawled from (like /a/ or twitter) to believe that Kyoani is beyond criticism because they make pretty shows and have better working conditions than most of the industry
>>4188565Kaiju N.8 was one of the usual Jump maximum overshilling operations a la Chainsawman except it didn't pan out, I don't think there was much oxygen left in the tank by the time the anime came out.
>>4188558>It's easy to make a image dump thread when yuri is just a porn fetish to you.The Hibike thread doesn't really have any porn in it though. For better or for worse, the people who like the "yuri" between Kumiko and Reina do so because they're retards who don't care about canon. The series isn't really going to for a fetishistic, FFM vibe you normally see in harem or romcoms. Makes sense when you consider that author wanted to explore the theme of how female friendship is more important than romance.
>>4188577Could've used a building with better safety conditons though.
>>4188569>>4188579Why be satisfied with canon when the fanon option is objectively superior?
>>4188579They are just fuel for porn, that all there is to threads like this, it's a straight girl conversion fetish, you would have more chance shipping Bulma and Chichi than any girl from Hibikek
>>4188558>>4188579Sometimes I wonder if the people sitting in these generals interact with with /u/ at all, I'd expect most yurifags to know that the only couples that the Hibike yuri fans really care about are NakaYoshikawa and NozoMizo. KumiReifags upset by their ship being "bait" moved on years ago (it's been like what, a decade now?) and the yuri fandom and artwork for the show has dried up in general because the aforementioned couples graduated in the previous season.
Cute.
>>4188563>Yagakimi is not yuri
>>4188591Some creators (particularly those who aren't yurifags) have an issue with their works being branded yuri, I've noticed.Almost like it's a mark of shame for them or something, that's why they're doing mental gymnastics like >it's not yuri, it's a normal romcom but with two girls
>>4188593It's because a lot of authors are still in the mindset that yuri = blushy crushy will she won't she antics that take 300 chapters to develop. So of course their story where girls kiss chapter 1 and have sex on chapter 40 wouldn't quite qualify.
>>4188587>>4188579The fuck is wrong with this board, how can you claim to love yuri but hate shipping?
>>4188593>some creators (particularly those who aren't yurifags) have an issue with their works being branded yuriAversion to labels is more of a gay thing.
>>4188589>we moved on to less relevant delusionsThe fandom died because people moved to other ships in better series
>>4188593>>4188594
>>4188590Right? Clarion was already using the last name Nanakorobi at the end of the first arc to hide her identity, but it has a different meaning now.
>>4188598>How do I write lesbians without using the "bad" words
>>4188597There are different kinds of shipping. Certain ships are plausible within canon while other contradict it completely. Hibike is the latter while a lot of earlier CGDCTs might be the former.
>>4188241Citrus, NTR and Sakura Trick are pure utterly trash.
>>4188598>>4188604meanwhilehttps://twitter.com/powder705/status/1779450579468914696
>>4188608Kodama is straight so it makes sense why she doesn't care.
>>4188604I think the world is still reeling from the radical feminist movement 10 years ago. The face of that movement were angry American lesbians who hate men.
>>4188609Yes anon, I'm sure homosexuals love to identify as nothing and hate when people recognize their sexuality as something valid.
>>4188610No such thing happened in japan, the US is an irrelevant country burgerino.
>>4188610>The face of that movement were angry American lesbians who hate men.Based honestly
>>4188610>>4188613japan and the rest of the world arent different about about "lesbian=porn category" stereotype
>>4188598This is the real answeryuri is polemic because yuri is lesbianismSome authors, mostly the ones who aren't yurifags, refrain from talking about how their work IS yuri because they're trying to avoid the lgbt discussion, it's a coward move but it's easy to understandSame thing when an author says "they're not gay just in love with each other", Japan thinks lesbian romance is more palatable as long as they don't say "we're lesbians"
>>4188484Be the change you want to see in the world
>>4188603Yeah the context has changed. Just made me happy.
>>4188616It's too bad Japanese only has a single word to describe homosexuality then. Or merely using the actual word "love" instead of tiptoeing around it with "feelings no one could possibly put a label to."
>>4188605>while other contradict it completelyAnd why is that a bad thing when the non-canon ship is vastly superior in every aspect to the canon one?
>>4188565Laterly shonenshit has been taking L all the way down, Solo Leveling was supposed to bring a new horrible breed of powerleveling retard to life and it got destroyed by the rise of Mahoako, Gayrobots and fucking Dungeon Antothy Bourdain.
>>4188623Personally, I don't mind if Hibike threads exist on the board. It's just not my preferred brand of shipping. That being said, I would expect that if you were recommending it to someone, you would honest about the fact that the girls are in relationships with men, just like someone recommending a CGDCT for yuri might have to say that it's not explicitly canon.
>>4188629>the fact that the girls are in relationships with men,Not all of them
>>4188630Sure, but I was specifically referring to Kumiko/Reina in one of my original posts.
>>4188623It's not a bad thing but fan creators are generally going to prefer ships that have more canon basis and ships that come from series with less mental gymnastics to make yuri. Yuri fans are insane but not as insane as fujos that will make a nsfw drawing a day for their obsccure yaoi pairing of two men canonically in commited relationships with women.
>>4188632Wrong, fujos just want to see guys fucking after some suddenly getting hard for each other, most of them have no interest in reading about normalized gays if they don't outright antagonize the idea. There is a reason why a lot of blatant sports manga with obvious faggots always have a female self insert after all.
MEANWHILE IN THE SUPERIOR COUNTRY OF CHINA
>>4188636
>>4188637gay or european?
>>4188627>JJK the most popular shonen currently>everyone conveniently ignores the sister raping her younger brother during discussion
>>4188635I never said fujos were interested in realism or not, just that they're more insane about being committed to maintaining a constant output of fanworks for obscure and clearly noncanon yaoi ships.
Purincess, sex...
>>4188644What I am saying to you is that there is nothing insane in their behaviour because they just want to see smut, they don't want to see Gojo and Geto as a gay couple, they just want to see them fucking once because of a night of lust or whatever.
>>4188644>>4188652fujos are basedbetter than the deranged purity obsessed yurifags
>>4188641The author still gave some deniability, they don't fuck onscreen, they never said they did it, they also don't do any kissing or anything lewd on screen. It also helps that it's only popular because it got the attention of fujos and that why the newest popular shonen jump series is full of faggots talking about how much they care about each other.
>>4188653The purityfags would be barafags and not fujos, regardless this is the reason why yaoi manga with normalized explicit relationships is rare and even more rare to see it in anime.
>>4188646(t/n: purin means pudding)
I despise when retards start talking about fujos, who the fuck cares stfu
What would it take for a fujo to read/watch yuri?
>>4188637how tf would you figure out just by watching her?
>>4188682i dont think this board is the place to talk about women internalized misogyny
>>4188682The same thing it would take for most yumes probably: non-moe character designs and art. Green manga is essentially a CGDCT in plot and how the characters act yet its still super popular among girls even though almost nothing has happened.
Sis...It's undeniable. This batshit insane girl is Nadeshiko's gf. No fucking way it another one.
>>4188692Watching the movie made me realize that Nadeshiko treats Megumi as Sakurako and Ai as Hanako
>>4188682If they just like the story/art for what it is. I don't give a shit about yaoi and won't go out of my way to seek it out but I keep up with one BL-ish manga that I like the art and plot for. Same goes for hetshit but I have more on my list of enjoyable manga with het just because of how ubiquitous it is.
I'm going to start the Princess Principal movies tonight instead of any of the seasonal shows
>>4188702Start something that's actually finished instead (or at least that will finish during this decade).
>>4188706I just want to see the cast again
>>4188632>fan creators are generally going to prefer ships that have more canon basisI would expect the opposite since a ship that's already canon doesn't really require fans to step in and pick up the slack. I don't know about fanart but at least in fanfiction like 40 out of the top 50 yuri pairings are non-canon
my backlog is evergrowing and i just added 5 more shows to it this season. i really need to sort out which ones are worth watching
>>4188720>Not every girl is a yumesource?
>>4188735People wouldn't be so vocal about hating self-insert shit if every woman was a yume and every man a self-inserter.
>>4188637Just check her social credit score. Lesbians are known to have rock-bottom numbers.
>>4188590>Crarion
>>4188720>though reverse traps are know to be popular with those.As regular traps are popular with men. World is being filled with bislugs
>>4188615>calling based to braindead multicolor haired landwhales
>>4188751It's kinda weird for you to repeat these misogynistic talking points on the damn yuri board. Why are you even here if you hate women lol
>>4188714There arent 5 yuri shows this season
>>4188609>Kodama is straightAll yuri manga artists are married and have kids. You caring about that stuff is retarded
>>4188800jellyfishgirls band crysasakoi train to nowheretwo sides of seiyuu radio>subtext isnt yuridont care
>>4188802
>>4188803
confession time.ive never watched a precure series
>>4188819this but unironically
>>4188818Why are you posting stuff from a het series? I get the picture itself is yuri in it's most pure form, but still.
>>4188801Most are, but there are some single, bisexual, and lesbian yuri mangaka. And knowing a mangaka's sexuality isn't exactly the same thing as caring. There are both good and bad yuri manga made by all different sexes and sexualities.Although it is a fact that gay men haven't made a bad yuri manga.
>>4188830What are some yuri written by gay men?
>>4188840Virgins' Empire and Idol x Idol Story
>>4188844Oh shitThat's actually suprising
>>4188801Show me Manio's husband and kids then.
>>4188844>Virgins' EmpireHe's not gay, just married.
>>4188844>Virgin's empire I don't think he's gay, appreciates the female form too much.
>>4188858>>4188859He's drawn yaoi manga before, so it's very likely that he's at least bi.
Teren also did works that put his sexuality in question too.
>>4188860straight women draw yuri, why cant straight men draw yaoi?
>>4188867Theoretically they can, but it's pretty rare for guys to be into non-trap BL.
>>4188803Stupid question but who is on the right?
>>4188877pretty sure thats shizuru from maihime
>>4188867Vampeerz author does, no idea if he is straight or just another faggot in cope
>>4188802Based and benchpilled
>>4188867""""straight"""" women, you mean.
>>4188855She is too lazy for that
>>4188870>Other than this very BL thing guys aren't into BLThis is the same argument that things like Handsome Girl or Green manga aren't yuri because the characters are too boyish.
>>4188906I didn't say that it wasn't gay or BL, I said that the people who liked it probably aren't gay. Just like the women who like green manga are mostly straight.
>>4188906>*anon breathes*>YOU THINK X IS NOT YURIgeez calm down
>>4188906Nobody ever said green manga isn't yuri. It's just boring.
>>4188920I love green manga but containing the story to 4 pages a week is really starting to show how repetitive the updates are lately.>something is bothering Aya>Toga rizz's her (unintentionally)>Aya swoonsAlso, this may be just me, but I feel her art has gotten worse after her break during the winter.
>>4188928By the way, who told Manio to write yuri manga?
>>4188933Or maybe she made that decision herself and she doesn't hate yuri.
>>4188928Many authors wish to write yuri only but theres simply not enough jobs for that.
Manio got stuck on yuri because of Kitakawa. It's not hard to figure out what she actually wants to draw if you've been following her for a while, but it wouldn't make her as much money and she is probably scared Kitakawa stops selling if she pisses off her fanbase by drawing something other than yuri.That's why her second Yuri manga failed so badly, she has no interest in doing it and was probably forced by the editor into doing it.
>>4188945>it's not hard to figure out what this woman who never had any het serialization even before Kitakawa wants to drawYes it's easy and the answer is not het.
>>4188945>[HEADANON]Some nee-sans have no shame. They would just make up lies to gossip about!
>>4188946You're mistaken but that's off-topic to discuss here.
Manio drawing hetshit would be hilarious, of course I don't want that since I'm a yurifag but I'd totally take this opportunity to shit on her fanbase of idiots who think dead lesbians is peak yuri, for me kitakawa's ending is nothing but one step above actual hetshit, pisses me off just thinking about itStill, like I said, I'd rather if she grew a brain and did yuri that doesn't suck ass.>>4188946She's not a lesbian so I don't know about it
>>4188954>h-haha I'd totally want a yuri artist to draw hetshit just to omg own people on an anonymous imageboard>I'm totally a yurifag though, please believe meIf you were actually a yurifag, yuri wouldn't be lower on your priorities than winning arguments happening in your head.
>>4188958>yuri artist to draw hetshit just>Of course I don't want thatI said it'd be hilarious since I already don't care about Manio and I hope she decides to write actual good yuri, I don't want hetshit and I explicitly said I don't on the post you quoted, nice strawman tho
>>4188952I'm not mistaken actually.
>>4188959>I don't want it>I'd just derive joy from it happening>I definitely don't want it at all though, please believe me
>>4188870>>4188860Careful not to conflate BL and yaoi. Being gay isn't a problem for most but lots of hardcore sex is where the squeamishness starts. Straight women can understandably like green manga but when they start going nuts over Asumi-chan is time to question their sexuality.
Who are other yuri mangaka that might be around Tokumi Yuiko's age?
>>4188978How old is she?
>>4188984Around 40s or even older I think, her yuri doujin goes back to 1996, it's a sailor moon yuri doujin
https://www.amazon.co.jp/review/R3LNWZF3K2B8ZGThis sasakoi review misunderstands a line and then makes 5 logical jumps to get mad because Aki must have had a boyfriend. I guess I have to apologize, since I thought you guys had the worst reading comprehension in the world.
>>4188989Go back to 2channel
>>4188987Oh, that's pretty old. Based on the interests and during what years they were active in the doujin world before going pro, I'd place most yuri artists right now between mid twenties to early thirties. There are some that are younger like Aizawa-san's mangaka who was tweeting about college not too long ago and the zoomer gyaru mangaka. Kase-san's mangaka is the only one that I know is much older than the average.
>>4188982Are all of these henpecked wives?
>>4188997Chigusa Minori was a JK a few years ago.
>>4188989To be fair that line probably has around 10 to 15 different meanings, one of them is that Aki is going to clown university.
>>4189002>lesbian clown university
>>4188997Oh, I just checked that Tokumi Yuiko and Akiko Morishima have their sailor moon doujin published on 1996 too on same anthology. So I guess both of them could be considered yuri aunties or yuri grannies.As for younger, I also remember Aizaki Utau. She's going pro at 3rd year of high school I guess? She likes yuri obviously and she definitely the extroverted one with many friends.>>4189001No wonder she's very eroi
>>4189047Looks like Sailor Moon doujins were the final thesis an aspiring yuri mangaka had to present to become worthy of the title.
>>4189054In 3-4 years, we will have yuri manga by gen alpha writers
>>4189056What stupid fucking name are you guys gonna come up with for the generation after this one?
>>4189058Alpha 2 of course, then it comes the super alpha 2 generation and then the super alpha 2 turbo generation.
>>4189058My sincere condolences for eveyone in the upcoming beta generation
>>4189058Hopefully omega, because it will be the last.
>>4189047>Akiko MorishimaTurned 50 this year.
>>4189067She's my yuri mangaka crush. I've never seen her but her works are so adorable I love her anyway.
>>4189058>>4189061That or generation covid
>>4189068Go for it, she's single.
>>4189070What. She's going out with Minakata Sunao.
>>4189058No need to because there won't be one.
>>4188819There's always a first time for everything.
>>4188818>everyone and their mum ships ami with makoto>pretty much zero (0) content for reixami
>>4188961I'd also derive hate from it just like I already did when she killed off the lesbians
>>4189075Ami had some chemistry with Makoto, it also didn't help the anime changed Rei character to be Usagi rival and also have her own love interest
>>4188692Agreed. Her energy is crazy. The other two never stood a chance.
>>4188606NTR, sure. Citrus has its good moments. Sakura Trick is perfect and you have no taste.
>>4189068You can't have a crush on yuri mangaka. Some people here will literally pop a vein from hearing this.
The word LESBIAN is in the tagline right in your face on the obi, incredible.
Today love defeated a cult of suicidal drug addicts.
>>4189092You know what? No idea what's this but I love soft butch lesbians in manga>>4189098>I'm womanFamous phrase uttered by men
>>4189103Perhaps sometimes he indulges his deepest desires.
>>4188989Adachi, please.She's right about Himari's friend, though. That was unnecessary, even more now that she will be the protagonist of the next 10 volumes of drama with that new girl recently introduced.
>>4189067Well, that's literally yuri grandma. Time does fly fast. I still remember browsing this very board when I was in high school and here I am in early 30s and no gfAnyway, I till remember when yuri manga have no reference to social media and all the girls using flip phones, using email to text because japs are that weird.Also almost no recent yuri manga have that "But we're both girls!" stereotype.
I don't care about feminists but they're the ones who made transgender "women" relevant.
is tesagure worth a watch?
>>4189224Finally, an excuse to post this.
>>4189239So who was the yuriwolf in the end?
>>4189239Rin arisugawa is pretending to be retarded, high chances she's the yuriwolfAoi Takahashi is defending herself too much, she's also susKoharu Tanaka is also very sussy, she instantly deflect to "oh there's a lesbian on the loose (not me)"
>>4189239>i wonder if its real yuri or if theyre just pretending for business. to be honest, its a total turn-offHina Sato is more yuri than half of /u/
So, this going to come off as really random, but if anyone's got an answer I'd love to hear it:is Soul Eater Not yuri?I mean Soul Eater came really close to having Yuri back in the day. And this is basically a slice of life version of it with three girl MCs. It's got to at least be subtext, right?
>>4189359It's not very good, but yes, it is very yuri subtext heavy.
>>4189445soul eater NOT, not soul eater. theyre talking about the spinoff with mostly girls
Does Kodama self-insert as a lesbian being taken advantage of or as the smug bicutie taking the advantage?
>>4189224>>4189239I like the other anime where they play the yuri game of life, and it's the game on hardmode.
What was the name of that series with the amateur lesbian porn studio high school club? Where they had a giant porn archive of couples throughout the school's history and the story was about some couples adding their own "experiences" to the collection?I think there was a threesome with twins and a student-teacher couple but I might also just be conflating it with Shoujo Sect in my head which did have those dynamics.
>>4189461Actually I just figured I'd try my luck with dynasty's exhibitionism tag since I knew it was one of the older series.It was Hana no Iro
was the ending to mygo sequel bait for a possible season 2 or one of those 'the story continues in the gacha' type things? i dont know anything about this franchise
>>4189467>sequel baitRemember when they hinted at the sequel and then didn't deliver it? They even declared that s2 would be in 2025, those liars!
>>4189468maybe sequel bait wasnt the right word, i shouldve said 'setting up for a sequel'.>s2 would be in 2025thats what i wanted to know
>>4189448Whichever character is opposite the one with the biggest breasts.
>>4189473A woman who knows what she wants. Cats and tits.
>>4189448The real question is, does Manio self-insert as Airi or Hinako?
>>4189239Based Hina.
railgahn
>>4189445>Crona is a boyWrong.
>>4189239That reminds me, what happened to that manga about a rich school where they set up a trial to figure out which girl stole another's virginity? I don't think I've seen a chapter in well over a year.And for that matter, what happened to Yoarashi no Warau? It's marked as complete, but a new chapter hasn't dropped in ages.
Voilà, now we need Baiser and Kiwi doing the Power to Revolutionise the World pose.
>>4189551Anthy would 100% do this
>>4189538actual yuri couple with thid dynamic?
I finally got around to reading Lady Snowblood. I know it ain't exactly a yuri manga but it had me wondering. This is from the early 70s, it came out right on the heels of legendary 60s series like Lupin III or Golgo 13.What's the oldest manga where the main character is acknowledged or at least implied to be a lesbian?
>>4189636Wasn't there a manga from the 50s? Lililicious had a blurb about it on their site IIRC.
>If My Favorite Pop Idol Made it to the Budokan, I Would DieIs this good?
>>4189641I like it from a pure story perspective. The characters are likable, and it makes you root for the group as a whole. The plot is a nice blend of both light-hearted, comedic moments, and more serious/tense subjects. Liked it enough to pay for a TL group to TL it. But from a yuri perspective, there isn't much of it. The idol starts to fall in love with her superfan, which is more or less the only yuri thing in the story, but nothing has been done with that so far
>>4189641I hate the pink dumbass. She should be shot and turned into a ghost, so that MC could move on to another better gurl
Kyou Kanojo gets shadowdropped this week in my country.I wish they did the same with Contract Sisters or Asumi-chan.
>>4189643As far the themes of the series are concerned it does them well enough, the idolshit is of course romantized like always but they are likeable characters with actual struggles, while MC and the guys are portrayed as just losers with nothing going on in their lives though still enjoyable because they are not the creepy type. The comedy works because MC isn't really over the top, she is just a dork saying weird shit.As for the yuri, the series is a weird case where the idol's feelings are not really ambiguous, but MC only see her as an idol and not really as an person, the only scenario where they could get together is if the idol career just fails, which doesn't seem to be the direction the story is taking.
So Liar Satsuki ended, but it seems short of chapters for a full volume, did the last chapter had more pages?
>>4189666>Liar Satsuki endedWhat?
>>4189666There's going to be a 2 part epilogue in May and June, going over Satsuki and Komachi's future together and dealing with a remaining problem for Satsuki.
>>4189668Can't wait for another super friends ending. /s
>>4189641The dynamic between the main pair is played really well, since it's fan x oshi there's a certain distance they're compelled to keep, but because of it every moment they finally get to interact becomes super precious; the idol is down bad for the fan and the fan is clearly in denial about not being in love with the idol, but she tries to play it cool.However the time-limited interactions they have are a double-edged sword, because of them the progression of their relationship is really slow and the rest of the time is filled with drama involving secondary characters you may not care about, though it's not bad or anything.Since the anime adaptation is delightful I'd recommend watching that first, then you can decide if you want more and pick up the manga.
>>4189641>>4189732I'll also recommend the anime, the MC's VA is amazing in this role.
>>4189643>The idol starts to fall in love with her superfan, which is more or less the only yuri thing in the storyI wouldn't say that, there's two members of the main idol group that are basically dating, and the remaining four are made to be easily shippable as two pairings; there's also that friendly idol group with the couple that was supposedly doing business yuri, except it turned out it wasn't just business, and all that on top of a complete lack of any het focus except the hopeless secondary fan dude who's presented in a negative light.So this is very obviously a series targeting yuri fans, you can rest assured none of the main or secondary girls will get a boyfriend or anything, unless it's a temporary pretext for more yuri development.>Liked it enough to pay for a TL group to TL it.Thank you.
>ClamJamThe only thing I know about the Budokan is that Ozzy played there.
I probably wont be watching Jellyfish anymore
>>4189793And why not?
>>4189794It's just not all that exciting.
>>4189793I immediately dropped after the tweet
>>4189796Damn, it's refreshing seeing someone criticize a show without "oh it's not yuri because I think so", even yuri can be garbage sometimes, I don't get why people are so desperate to constantly have several shows to watch, who tf cares>>4189797And here it is, the retard (hetshitter troll or not, still a retard)

>>4189797I did the same thing at first, but then I saw Teren's tweet and immediately undropped! I have a spacious inside my head and plenty of room for anyone else's opinion.
>>4189859Why yuri has so much eating manga, ate they hungry?

>>4189982Uuh how is that male gaze again?
>>4189978I honestly couldn't give a shit about the meaning of a word, I want to see girls with romantic feelings for each other or at least building to it. If you want to see dumb friendship stories go ahead. Regardless of what retard author says, he knows his current audience wouldn't buy his shit if it was just friendship.
>>4189983he is probably tallimg about this one>>4189928

>>4189987Yes, but even so it's probably what he meant.

>>4189982Why are you retarded and ugly and smelly
For how long have you guys been yurifags? For me it's 4 years, I was 16
>>418999720 years
>>4189997I literally started reading yuri yesterday.
>>4189999And how old are you?
>>4189997Strictly speaking, 2005 for my first real yuri anime First time I became aware of lesbian romance being a “real” thing …..right around when Warcraft 3 came out, so what was that, 2002? 2003?
>>4190003Weird benchmark honestly.
>>4189893Sad truth is a lot of mangaka have fuck all resembling a hobby or interests to pursue and eating and choosing what to eat might be the one thing they do that they have any control over.
>>4189985>doesn't care about yuri in /u/Gtfo
>>4189997I started reading yuri manga and fanfiction as a teenager, so like 16 years ago.My child self sure was interested in lesbian relationships when they happened on TV. I remember my sister explaining lesbians to me about the final episode of .hack//sign.
>>4190004Basically before the events of the game, all the male Night Elves in Warcraft went into a deep slumber in order to study nature magic in a dream like world and the women were left to protect their lands I was reading a random Warcraft 3 fanfic back then and a (tragic) lesbian confession came out of nowhere. I can’t quite describe the exact feeling I had back then, it was like a revelation of sorts….like yes this is a thing and it can feel very romantic and emotional.
Pretty sure I became aware of it in the late 90s when I was searching for movies with lesbian scenes after watching something that had one and finding some board about lesbians that also had links to lilicious website.
>>4189997I had this feeling of just, being annoyed at men and romance. It all felt trite and empty. I don't know what finally got me to just read manga or only follow yuri series, but I guess Ichigo Mashimaro helped a lot.
>>4190013I know what you mean. I think the last time I was “okay” with a blossoming het romance (not already established couples like parents for a character or something) was the main couple in Valkyrie Chronicles which was like 2009. They were just nice, good people and them getting together didn’t feel forced or unearned 99.99999% of the other times I see some broad falling for a dude, I get annoyed in ways I can’t properly explain.
>>4189997I blame Rebellion.
>>4190016>Did you have a yaoi phaseno.
>>4190016I'm fine with it, as long as I don't hate one of the characters. But that tends to be almost all the time, which is why I don't seek it ever.
>>4190016No. You are either a yurifag or you are a genre traitor.
>>4189997Since I watched a certain western bislut murder suicide movie, that is around 2002-2004
>>4190016I watched 8 episodes of Loveless in order to properly enjoy the two yuri episodes near the end, does that count
>>4190021Thelma and Louise?
>>4190021You just reminded me there was a lesbian kiss on Ally McBeal too
>>4189997Since 2010 or 11 when I learned about anime. Watched ouran and got really pissed off seeing Haruhi with the guys. After she accidentally kissed that one girl all I wanted was to see her kiss more girls and become the most popular host.
>>4190026The Zuka Club did nothing wrong, the Zuka Club should've been the focus.
>>4190016I read some yaoi a friend lends me but I don't go out of my way to look for it myself. I lend her yuri in return.
I always like asking questions like "when did you start watching yuri" or "why are you a yurifag" because the answers are sometimes somewhat mystical babble like this >>4190009 and I totally get the feeling, it's amazing.
>>4190023No.
Also holy shit, the first Kannazuki No Miko AMV I watched edited out all the mecha and I was so surprised when I actually watched the anime and Souma hopped in his fucking robot
>>4190016Yaoi is disgusting.
>>4189997I went "wow, modern romcoms are fucking lame and I'm sick of them, let me try something different" sometime in the early 2010s. Ironically, most are even worse nowadays. If I'd tried to read Rent A Girlfriend I would've probably dropped manga as a whole instead of searching for different genres.
>>4190016I've heard a lot of lesbians tend to like yaoi but I've always hated it, even more than het shit sometimes. Is it true or just some dumbass spouting nonsense?
>>4190043As a dude I think it's bullshit spread by bisexual girls, BL IS sexual and if you're not attracted at all to dudes you'd feel uncomfortable by it "oh I love dudes fucking each other" guess what you like dudes.
>>4189997I have liked yuri for about 5 years, but didn't really become a yurifag until watching gundam which for some reason killed all my interest in het focused romance and made me read and watch a fuck ton of yuri
>>4190043I asked and I'm a lesbian.
>>4189997>15 yearsdamn, I went out of my BL phase and never looked back
>>4189997>>4190017Found the Zoomers
https://twitter.com/Cat2Sora/status/1780524041507639495?t=0GhmmptZudWBCniiRqYcSQ&s=19New series by the Lonely Girl mangaka
>>4190043At least back then, if you had weeb friends when you were young, they would push BL on your face, not easy to escape unless you wanted to be only around boys only talking about Naruto and Bleach, but then you had this all female community that was kinda comfy (sometimes at least) and still about gay stuff, shipping was still fun, etc. The "yuri is for men" bias people had about yuri certainly didn't help.Things changed a lot though, I believe the bias and the whole "lesbian weebs only being into BL" idea is dying and it's maybe thanks to social media. I've seeing girls connect to yuri content and the communities around it naturally without being made believe it would be not for them, although a lot of it is gacha game and k-pop shipping.>>4190046You just feel nothing about the sexual part, and just enjoy gay character romance/drama/tragedy etc, you take the good with the bad. However, there's the strange phenomenon that is lesbian BL fans and artists that absolutely refuse to engage in any form of lesbian content at all, that I can't wrap my head around.
>>4190067But I want a new series by Manio...
>>4190067black haired girl looks cool
>>4190067I don't know which one has the dumber ahoge.
>>4189997Over a decade at this point. Wish we could have slow /u/ back, minus the tripfags.
>>4190067Finally synthpop yuri!
>>4190043My lesbian friend had read some yaoi/BL but didn't much care for yuri. Some people just want to get away from their own life for a while.
>>4190067damn her signature is cute as heck
BLfags have their omegaverse mpreg sol this season.Yuri still has a long way to go...
>>4190080>omegaverseSo they lost.
>>4190080thats the most straight girl bullshit I've ever heard of
>>4190033>why are you a yurifagStarted watching SoL because I have no female friends at high school(they're all stacies) and then turns out I like girls.There, now I can back being embarassed
>>4190087Like everyone reading your post will realize, you left a certain important detail out that easily explains everything, some would say you cut it out.
>>4190068>>4190091women in general can suffer from misogynistic bias, that is to be more interested in male characters than female characters, no matter whatif you know vintage BL artists many got into it because they felt boys could do everything, and couldnt imagine female characters going through complicated situations
>>4190111
>>41899972011. Pic related was the first yuri manga I ever read.I wish I could remember why I got interested in the first place, but I can't quite seem to. A friend recommended me to check out Dynasty Scans if I wanted to know more about this yuri thing. The first time I checked out the place; and this is no joke; there was a drawing of a hairy dude in his underwear using his computer in the site header. There was a message that said something like "100% man butt goodness." written up there. I honestly thought my friend had just played a prank on me, it was lemonparty all over again. I was just about ready to tell them to go fuck themselves, but then I scrolled down and there it was. I don't think Dynasty ever fucked around with the header like that again, which makes this whole episode just quite weird.
>>4190121>hairy dude in his underwear using his computerAnon, that was a picture from your webcam.
>>4190112>imagespammer is outright posting guys now
>>4189799>I don't get why people are so desperate to constantly have several shows to watch, who tf caresOf course, having variety and options is a bad thing, because definitely not having anything is much better or a better posture, since "I" read manga or LN then I am a superior being (ignoring the real quality of those works, which if they turn out badly and I pretend that they did not exist)
Does it weird you out when in yuri manga women have super defined top/bottom roles in sex scenes?
>>4190138It is somewhat ridiculous yes, Minori Chigusa stuff for example.
>>4190138No, it's hot, Chigusa Minori stuff for example.
>>4190140>>4190148I understand her stuff, reversal is fun.
I want more 2000s blob looking lesbians yuri
>>4189997Since 2009. I was 23.
>>4189551>>4190183
>>4190183the better timeline
>>4189997since around corspe party blood covered on the psp. Even though it didn't end up yuri I like liked the Naomi/Seiko relationship.
>>4190112I like this
Zenkowa chapter 12 summary. Kurumi is hanging around at her house going about her day. The spectre of her mother still looming in her mind. There's a flashback where Kurumi agrees to meet Naoi in front of a movie theater at 10 PM that Saturday. But before that there's the meeting with the teacher.The teacher tries to downplay everything, while Kurumi refuses to apologize to Isanuma. Eventually Kurumi stands up and leaves. Turns out to keep the incident quiet from her parents, Isanuma made their teacher agree to take her on a date.Cut to Isanuma's friends. Turns out the short girl heard rumors that the teacher dates high school girls, and lied and told Isanuma that the girl he was seen dating was Kurumi. Tall girl panics and wonders why she lied to them, but she won't answer. Isanuma shows up and tells them about her upcoming date with the teacher. Tall girl panics again, but short girl takes Isanuma with her while lying and saying tall girl can't go too since she's busy with something.Cut to Kurumi waiting for Naoi. Naoi's late. Kurumi wonder's if Naoi was playing her and plans to go home. Some guys start harrassing Kurumi so she runs off. She hears someone yelling and sees who she probably doesn't realize is Naoi's dad about to hit Naoi and is shaking her down for money. Kurumi runs up and gets between them. Chapter ends with Naoi exclaiming "Yoshizawa-san!"
>>4190133Not exactly a new development
What the hell, why is seiyuu radio like this? Why is it so dumb and cheap, but so good, like it was cooked using good yuri broth stock?If you don't like seiyuu radio, you don't like yuri, no excuses.
>>4190196Short girl is evil and the teacher is a pedo. Neither are shocking revelations if you were paying attention.Also, we get tall and short girls surnames. Short girl is Mine and tall girl is Azuma.I'm betting Isanuma gets caught on her date and ends up getting blackmailed either by the short girl or Naoi. Or Naoi takes the video and posts it online. Isanuma definitely isn't innocent after pulling this stunt.
A gentle reminder that Zenkowa ended at chapter 10.Don't read fake continuations
>>4190199We have a criminally low amount of rivalry yuri. Intimacy born of rivalry is at least 1.75 times more precious than ordinary intimacy.
>>4190203Yeah, that first scene where gyaru praises Yuhi to her face without knowing that it was her? Full kyaaaaa material!
Also nobody gives a fuck about what Kuwabara said on twitter.
>>4190200The smart move would be to get the teacher fired or to blackmail him for money.
Zenkowa is dumb and not sexy enough.Girls with shit lives should use sex to cope.
I want to complain that scriptwriter voice is too young, it should be more adult like and tiredThey also skipped Yuhi awkwardly greeting gyaru at school, sad.
Love me how Tokyo Tower is getting yuri coded like aquariums.Yuri architecture
>>4190196Based psycho bitch Kurumi.
It looks like Isanuma snuck into /u/ and posting.
>>4190200Well, now that we know her name, it's time for Azuma to come on stage. I guess she was the one who stood behind Kurumi when she was about to commit that terrible crime. Maybe she also saw Naoi filming it.
I wonder if the story is heading into Kurumi and Naoi catching Isanuma and the teacher on their date. I'm betting Naoi records them if so. Then she can follow through with her posting a video to social media so everyone in the school can see it threat from volume 1.
>>4190237If you pay close attention to the early chapters, Azuma seems scared of Naoi and seems very nervous when passing by Kurumi when she's covered in dirt. I think Azuma saw what they both did, but was too chicken to report it due to fear of Naoi and scared she'd piss off Isanuma by doing something to help Kurumi. But now Azuma might actually go to Naoi for help. Mine can't be trusted, Isanuma is a moron, and the teacher needs stopped.
Teacher is just a nice guy who got evil dykes making rumors about him and now manipulating the token straight girl into blackmailing him into a date
>>4189997Hard core for the last 2 yearsOtherwise about a 15 years
I told you math is yuri and you didn't believe me.
>>4190244Anon, I already hate this manga, you don't need to add fuel to the fires
I don't like how people try to make zenkowa the "new" kitakawa when they only thing similar between them is that they both suck, at least kitakawa was fun at the beginning as a "oh this is retarded but fun" thing
>>4190244Remember months ago when an Anon predicted the het drama arc for volume 3? It's here.
I read something recently about two girls with terrible family situations and they fuck for comfort.I was thinking, how boy I wish zenkowa was this sexy, I cannot remember the title at all, one of the girls had red hair. Help me out, I know they almost got caught fucking in the nurse office.
>>4190258The first volume of Zenkowa misled alot of readers, many of whom still haven't realized the truth. Kuwabara is basically Kodama. There's some drama, some misunderstandings, some comedy etc., but at the end of the day, things will work out for the leads. Just with a happy couple BDSM twist. Naoi's character was a ruse. She's secretly a nice, awkward girl whose troubled home life made her act out. She'll get nicer but still be bratty.
>>4190258>people try to make zenkowa the "new" kitakawaYou could have at least replied to the posts where this kind of thing happens. Maybe then these people would feel ashamed when they were caught in the act and would not do what you are so upset about anymore…
>>4190260Every edgy manga turns out like this, it's either intense depressive garbage like my girlfriends not here or whatever (that one where the girl cheats on her girlfriend with a shitty haircut) or hetshit drama, and they all have this specific "feeling" to them, it's like you can tell what's coming from a mile awayI'm seriously done with edgy garbage in yuri manga and I've developed hatred for people who complain about "boring" stuff like yuri romance without any shitty drama.Good yuri drama is something like WataYuri.
Yep, so your task for the near future will be to repeat "het drama" as often as possible, completely unconcerned about how little of that "het drama" actually takes up space in the main plot.
>>4190080The mpreg knocked the wind of me, it was brought up so matter of fact that I laughed for like 3 minutes straight
>>4190273I for one didn't even read the last few chapters, I'm not saying zenkowa is hetshit, I'm saying it's garbage just like most drama slop yuri
>>4190273One page, one frame, one mention is one too many for a yuri series.
>>4190260>>4190268I wouldn't call literally one page het drama.
>>4190283It's just building the other girl to something, that all there is to it.
>>4190283I'm pretty sure he was mentioning me and I don't agree with your post, yes it's always garbage but complaining like that is usually something that trolls do.>>4190286>that all thereYou write it like this you stupid fuckThat'S all there is to it
Shiho is cute. CUTE!
What’s zenkowa
>>4190283A holder of principles as firm as yours should have had their ass on fire by chapter 1. It can't be that you didn't actually read it, but just saw some key words in the thread and decided to start your shit again, can it?
>>4190288>That'S all there is to itThanks anon, this'S all I needed to know.
>>4190293This isn't the het hating board, as long it don't crosses some lines we don't care, neither do yuri authors, you are probably in the wrong hobby
>>4190300Stop replying to it
>>4190302No it doesn't, you can easily check yuri hime lineup and see this by yourself, this is just your western ass larping over something that has nothing to do with your autism.
>>4190306Stop replying to it you stupid nigger
>>4190300This isn't the het apologists board either.
Being against het is something yurifags should always strive for, however talking like this>YOU'RE LE HETSHITTER EVERYTHING WITH DUDES IS HET LE HET is something only trolls and trannies do
>>4190322It's true though, I don't want to read about whatever hetshit there is, this is a yuri space.
>>4190310There are not het apologism if there is no het complaining. If you want to complain about the axed sex slave robot manga where the author drew the father fucking the robot, even though it was in the fucking title already, sure. But this is just petty and annoying.>>4190313You don't need to look at yuri hime, you have plenty of yuri manga with het, any yuri author will just call your complaints insane and ask for you not to read their shit anymore, because it may surprise you, but every single yuri author who ever existed so far was born from an heterosexual relationship.And no, being retarded, annoying and bitchy may be your lifestyle but it isn't this board culture.

>>4190033It's weird how some memories stick with you.
>>4190332Uhhh, Lapissister, did we get too cocky?
>>4190258Kitakawa is literally the best yuri manga of all time. You are the embodiment of shit taste.
>>4190327>There are not het apologism if there is no het complaining.There will always be people mentioning het if authors keep including it in allegedly "yuri" works.>you have plenty of yuri manga with hetIncorrect. No yuri manga has het, and works with het aren't yuri
>>4190343>Incorrect. No yuri manga has het, and works with het aren't yuriSure anon, good luck talking about the 5% of titles that remain and complaing about the other 95% discussed here.
>>4189445Crona is canonically NB. No, english translation had no excuse for the masculine pronouns. So yes, the maka/crona ship is yuri, fuck you.I was talking about Kim and Jaqueline anyways. I said 'really close' because baldy had to come and ruin it.
>>4190199I will consider liking it when it actually dare to become yuri
>>4189997Casually shipping yuri for at least 20 years. Became a hard-core yurifag in 2013 when I watched mlp and started shipping twilight/celestia
>>4190345>95% of "yuri" works include het
>>4190199>Why is it so dumb and cheapthe animation looked pretty standard to me, i didnt notice anything jarring while watching it. maybe i just have low standards
Whether LycoReco belongs to the yuri section in this pic depends on your perspective.
>>4190286Teacher does something to upset Isanuma on their date, Naoi sees it and helps her out, then Isanuma falls for Naoi. More drama as now Kurumi and Isanuma like the same person for real time.
>>4190380Why wouldn't it?
>>4189912QB in general has always been decent (and yuri) at worst, that unlimited was a terrible idea, not only in plot but in character designs, is something different.
>>4190383because hetfags are stupid and believe that their wrong point of view is the right one.
>>4189997officially since 2009, but it could have been earlier since I liked yuri before I knew yuri was a thing (I'm 34 years old)
>>4190390>Mod deletes it>See I won>Mod does not delete it (this I what happens 99% of times)>/u/ is DEAD
>>4190398Yes they do. The point is regardless of what happens, you'll be able to either gloat or complain the board is dead. Your invitation to post it and see what happens is in bad faith.
>>4190390
>>4190380I love how Cruddy is outselling everything else, even the new stuff.
>>4190413>Lesbians dying sellA sad thing for yurifags
>>4190383>she lacks critical information
>>4190350Crona is male in every adaptation, including the original manga.
>>4190377AI generated crap, stay in your containment thread.I wish the mods would make an AI board and ban AI shit on every other one.nwpht
>>4190418>nwphtYou were trying to say something there anon? LOL so embarassing
>>4190416What exactly do you gain from spouting this bullshit that anyone with a passing knowledge of the series can disprove?
>>4190420I accidentally put the captcha in without noticing.It will happen to you too, someday.
>>4190380Unless the series above is also yuri I don't think so
>>4190422>anyone with a passing knowledge of the series can disprove?But don't, for some mysterious reason.
>>4190418I was wondering when you would show up.>>4190420It's happened to me before, it's very common in fact.
>>4190431Crona is never refered to as being male in any way in any media. If you want to prove otherwise, the burden of proof falls on you.
>>4190384Learn English.
>>4190384Unlimited was more than a terrible idea, it killed the franchise.
>>4190435learn bioengennering
>>4190433I certainly hope you aren't trying to imply that pointing out AI shit and telling them to fuck off is bad.
>>4190327>>4190306>>4190318You people should really start recognising this guy and stop giving him attention. If it's not about het, then it's about genderswap, or subtext, or male gaze, or whatever. He always roleplays as an unreasonable militant yurifag as an excuse to shit up threads with his obnoxious concern-trolling.His deleted posts pretty much confirm he's a ban evader.
>>4190440It has its uses, when properly contained.
>>4190440I don't care about A.I. one way or the other, I was just pointing how late you were, considering you usually do you number almost instanteously everytime an A.I. picture gets posted anywhere.
>>4190441Genderswap is not yuri so he is absolute right in those cases.
>>4190441I already recognize it and I'm seriously tired of it at this point
>>4190442So long as it stays away from normal threads, people can have their fun.>>4190443I'm not an ACK style poster who lives on 4chan if that's what you think, but I will point that shit out whenever I see it.
>>4190441So, basically, you can't mention that things that don't belong on this board are posted on this board.
>>4190444I think the genderswap part is referencing when he accussed MagiRevo of being reincarnation gs when there's no evidence of it and Anis is not even an actual reincarnation in the same way other isekai MCs are
>>4190451>subtextIf purely yuri, then yes.>male gazeWhat a stupid name. As if girls didn't like looking at other girls.
>>4190449Most people don't share your retarded obsession with what belongs on the board or not, they just mind their own business and ignore the things they don't like instead of making a scandal out of it.Your autistic fixation on rules and inability to understand nuance paints as either heavily autistic, or simply a concern troll looking to cause trouble (not to mention you lack of familiarity with how /u/ operates, which lends even less credibility to your opinion).If nobody other than you has a problem with it, then it's not worth discussin, your personal opinions and hangups don't dictate what the board does or what it can or can't discuss.
>>4190380What’s the series on the bottom left front shelf? The pink hair and the brown hair
>>4190464Didn’t ask
>>4190464Shockingly, two completely different things with completely different communities with completely different ideologies have different rules.
>>4190460NTA but please say what belongs on the board, otherwise you are just coward hiding in ambiguity.
>>4190466its two boards on the same site, one of gay men and the other of gay women, with two completely different sets of board rules (not community rules). thought it was weird, since youd think the site would have similar rules for the two. saying theiyre completely different is also weird since people were just talking about yaoi in this thread yesterday and the overlap between them
>>4190460Nobody wants to see your offtopic shit. Ignoring offtopic shit only makes more pop up.
>>4190470>overlapMore like the fake overlap between them. Learn to read please.
>>4190463>not knowing Kimi ga shinu made koi wo shitai
>>4190472It's the image spammer, any time you see wording like "how the board operates" or "board culture" it's code to posting traps or GB
>>4190470I'm pretty sure that /y/ doesn't have that rule because there isn't a deluge of mmf threesome art tagged "yaoi" because the dudes are looking at each other.
Bloom Into You... should I read the official or scanlation versions?
>>4190481It's because/y/ is more of a porn board than /u/, retard
>>4190414>lesbians getting isekaid to a warm beachA win for yurifags.
>>4190483Buy the official version and the Sayaka DLC.
>>4190469Whatever is relevant to the interests of the yuri fanbase. Something doesn't need to fit 100% into an strict definition of yuri in order to be posted here. That's why it's useless to whine about subtext or genderswap or ambiguous characters, they're close enough to yuri and that's what matters. They've all historically been allowed, and there's no practical reason to ban them just to please an entitled whiny bastard.>>4190472Then why does nobody ever say anything about it? Why is it always you using always the same arguments with the same exact wording and the same autism? Your opinion does not dictate either the board or its posters.
>>4190437It is a Hobby Japan franchise, as long as the figures do not stop selling, the franchise will not die.although it's funny that they continue to insist on Unlimited's designs in the gacha, even disparaging the original interpretations of the characters.
>>4190464>>4190466>>4190470>>4190487/u/ was made as a yuri-only alternative to /h/. The reason for the "no men" rule is to make it clear that it's not for posting bisexual pics.The reason why /y/ doesn't allow 3D is simply because /hm/ already exists for that, but there is no lesbian equivalent due to a lesbian-only 3D porn board being way too niche. /u/ being so tiny and slow allowed it to evolve to encompass all lesbian media rather than just hentai or anime and manga, /y/ didn't need that due to the homo fanbase being a lot larger and diverse.
>>4190504>That's why it's useless to whine about subtext or genderswap or ambiguous characters, they're close enough to yuri and that's what mattersYeah, I knew that wall of text could only possible be about non yuri shit porn fetish that is NOT recognized as yuri in the only country where yuri exists
>>4190507>/u/ being so tiny and slow allowed it to evolve to encompass all lesbian media rather than just hentai or anime and manga, /y/ didn't need that due to the homo fanbase being a lot larger and diverse./u/ is significantly faster than /y/.
>>4190511Thanks to the addition of those mediums
>>4190511BL is discussed on /cm/.
>>4190514And yuri on /a/.
>>4190506Is the gacha the one with the shota shit?
>it's not yuri if the bookstores don't put it in the yuri section >they put it in the yuri section >nyooooo it doesn't count
>>4190504>subtext or genderswap or ambiguous characters, they're close enough to yuriMask slipped off. Leave and never return.
>>4190534It's almost as if a random store clerk wasn't the end-all-be-all determinator for a series to be yuri or not.
>>4190540I am sick of the "they put yuri tag on seiyuu radio" argument as well, autists can't make a decision based on two MC being girls and loving each other a lot?
>>4190541The issue is that people are unable to reach an agreement where is the line for friendship and where is the line for romance and also what are the author's intentions, because you can write something that looks like romantic subtext but isn't, the same way you may write something that is meant to look like romantic subtext but one gets it, so most of them time the subtext works people consider yuri are those which are more consistent in the portayal of the characters as having at least a romantic inclination for the other.Stores by themselves are not really interested if the contents of the work are really yuri, only if the people going to those parts of the store would be more willing to buy them, it's basically yurinavi in a nutshell, since they make money from selling the kindle bundle on their website, they will push anything as yuri that won't make people unfollow them, this is why you never see them recommending TS (also know as gender bending) or stuff like Satanophany or Hajime Idol.
It is extremely easy for a girl starting from age 13 to find a bf. If she is bfless and has a bestie who is also bfless that should be like +100 points into the "they are lesbian" argument
>>4190547Not for japanese girls.
>>4190549mfs say this but then turn right around and go ew she's got a male friend it's totally gonna be het
>>4190552It is a red flag.
I still listen to Metallic Rouge OP/ED
>>4190554Then surely a girl having a girl best friend and no male friends would be a green flag.
>>4190332>>4190340Last volume was Lapis.
>>4190562I think a green flag would be her stating she has no interest or doesn't want one, kind like Elaina did,
>>4190562>>4190567That's just rolling the red carpet for one to show up.
>>4190569May surprise you, but nips really really really hate subversions.
>>4190563>>4190332how far behind is the ENG scan
I hope none of you hags behave like this if you happen to gain super powers.
>>41905763 chapters
>>4190560My condolences.
>>4190549They have Chads confessing to them every day
>>4190560I only listen to ed.I watched the op mv and didn't like the singer. Japanese beauty with soulless eyes. Yikes.
I miss them...
>>4190586And they all end like mob
>>4190547>>4190549Right but for the wrong reasons as realism isn't a main concern for how these kinds of relationships are depicted. The more important factor is what certain audiences want to see. For the lack of a better term, there is a group of people who enjoy series that focus on close bonds between girls. But most of them also want to see the girls get male love interests or do romantic things with guys in addition to their relationships with girls (or at least don't mind seeing it). Hibike, Nana, and Aria are good examples of shows that might appeal to this fanbase. And of course, there is obviously a fanbase that doesn't want to see the girls romantically involve themselves with guys (purityfags if you want to be dismissive). And their shows don't need to have any yuri fanservice in them to be popular. Just see Yuru Camp or Girls und Panzer.I'd argue that yuri fans are probably about 90% of the overlap between these two fanbases. So the kind of series that feature super close girls who don't seem interested in romance with guys (or at least give up on those ideas by the end) are mostly likely trying to court the yuri audience.
>>4190580Isnt EN up to 14? So the whole thing's just 17 chaptesr?
>>4190531The one I'm playing doesn't have any Shota or directly a story outside of some event or collaborations, it's basically collecting "girls", leveling them up in various ways and having 5 on 5 battles that are stupidly automatic, it's honestly more frustrating than fun (I haven't given them my money by the way.)
>>4190244Funnily enough the teacher looks super uncomfortable with what Isanuma's doing. So either the rumors are fake, or they're true and he's terrified of getting caught by dating a girl from his own homeroom.Either way, they're most likely getting caught and recorded. And as with all things, if Isanuma gets angry about something, she'll blame Kurumi. Even if Mine is planning to screw Isanuma and their teacher over, she might be planning to use Kurumi as a scapegoat.
>>4189666>>4189668>they removed the Girls Love tag from liar satsukiits over...
>>4190607Yeah, because it's distilled yuriBest girl Komachi won btw, you may cry
>>4190567So why is it that boy + girl being friends = almost inevitable het while girl + girl being friends = only yuri if they explicitly state they aren't into boys? Double standards ahoy.
>>4190607It's not the first time that's happened. There's a lot of dumb edit wars on mangadex.
>>4190541>>4190544Retards everywhere might go endless coping about this shit is totally yuri and what not but everyone and their mother know yuri = romance and that is what yurifags want, hence every doujins and autist schizo authors still make sure their shit got actual girl love in it no matter whay they claimed This is also why no one is satisfied if a series end with nothing burger non comfirmation At the end of day, no romance = not yuri, it's that simple and you know it to be true in your heart
>>4190541I thought Seiyuu Radio is still subtext shit after 20 volumes
>>4190626Subtext is yuri.
>>4190625Love these two. Mocha's was one of the first paetrons I subbed to.
I suppose a word of thanks must be given to the amazon bots and waifufags who have provided Seiyuu Radio LN with steady sales over the course of 10 volumes. I can't think of anyone else who would be interested in such a thing.
>>4190626It is, apprarently the topic of girl love hasn't even been bought up even after that long or something according to complaints from ln readers, which basically means author has no plan to write yuri thereWhich is a shame because the set up and the two girls chemistry is actually decent
>>4190656>to the amazon bots and waifufagsTo the *yuri fans
>>4190656It doesnt really sell that much, it was much lower than Magirevo before anime, and magirevo was already fucking low around that time
>>4190660So what is it even fucking about?Just two girls acting cute for their otaku audience in order to further their idol career?
>>4190668They're not idols....
https://twitter.com/tmsktama/status/1780810961659777038?t=zxianhtubfrT_RPiaKWcVA&s=19The mangaka for Love Letter for the Marching Puppy finally made another series
>>4190671Idols do voice acting
>>4190668It's about the relationship of two girls who love each other.
>>4190672>Not some cool military yuriYawn
>>4190674But not every voice actor is an idol. Hello?
>>4190668VA autism and drama spiced by various shippy momentsBut like idols doing business yuri, it will never go anywhere (it even has business yuri plot in it kek) In a way you can say author was being realistic
>>4190668Turbo seiyu autism and problems It really got fucking annoying real fast for me after 3 vols I last like one more volume after it I thinkI remember cursing the faggot who shilled it to me
>>4190678It doesn't seem like the mangaka like military setting *that* much, even in the Marching Puppy they barely reference it after the first few volumes
>>4190682>various shippy momentsThat's yuri unless you can prove they have boyfriends on the side.
>>4190695Meds
>>4190709>how dare you get frustrated >how dare you want a series to be more yuri reeee you are a hetshitter Keep your schizo shit in your own head faggot. So far you are only one thinking and screaming about hetshit constantly Like seriously, what the fuck happened to the threads? You can't even get frustrated at wasted potential? Can't even get annoyed that a series isnt explict? Is this even a fucking yuri thread? What the fuck is wrong with wanting a series to go more yuri?
>>4190612Yes, it is a double standard, it's sad but it's inevitable, it's how society still is and it's how fiction has been for several decades, women were most always just reduced to love interests, if not more egregious stuff, so this is why this idea is so normalized, though funny enough we are seeing a rise in het friendship stories where they never get together or at most their relationship is just subtext, which I suspect may be a consequence of pushing this moralistic standard on male protagonists to the extreme.>>4190619Depends on what is your definition of romance, personally I don't think romance starts with the recognition of one parts being in love, how would you describe Rufuria and Rakira relationship in RPG Fudousan? Would you say it's only romance because they kissed in one of the last chapters?
I see that we have a new ack, everyone is going to be "hetshitter" schizo pretty soon
>>4190221People are discovering the overpass bridge as the next piece of yuri architecture. See jellyfish and GBC this season.
What will it take for you all to stop complaining about nonsense?
>>4190619>hella lot of copeNah, yuri is yuri, gtfo to your chink forums if you don't agree
>>4190731Range bans.
>>4190726Don't tell anyone here that green manga did it first.
>>4190713>Like seriously, what the fuck happened to the threads?Stop calling yuri "not yuri".You can voice your frustrations and even complain about it but look how other people do it - we do not deny it is yuri.I complain and bitch about LycoReco, MahoAko (aside from one schizo) and SeiyuuRadio without ever questioning that they are yuri, why can't you do the same?
>key to world peace was just accepting that "yuri is whatever anyone on /u/general believes is yuri" all along
>>4190740>Stop calling yuri "not yuri".I literally don't do any of that you shadow seeing schizoids
>>4190731I always wonder if it is the same fucking schizo, the posts, arguments and random name calling are all the same every fucking day
>>4190758Yes.

>>4190628>series ended>draws only the girls in high schoolFutaribeya should have ended at 3 volumes.
>>4190772I understand. I can't imagine watching this movie and not coming away absolutely loving it, it's that good. And I say it as someone who considers the TV show only decent.
>>4190772Nobody even knows what letterboxd is.
>>4190784It's like goodreads for movies or something.
>>4190772Love Cobra never
Know any more Yuri songs like this?https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=88VEBN7QIooOr songs with two female vocals like this?https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_7gT5v4LTM also yuri, but sadly used for a h*tshit show
If I could sit through two seasons of Cue than watching Seiyuu Radio should be nothing for me.
>>4190731Losing our virginity.
>>4190845Seiyuu Radio has a lot of gay moments between the two girls. Why would anyone think watching it would be hard or something?
>>4190678>>4190687Well yes,because Indou gonna do some nasty shit to southeast asian ladies in the future.
>>4190772The movie is simply great, it is a beautiful visual spectacle, which correctly takes advantage of being an animated product to create a beautiful experience (In contrast to the soulless shit that Kioany makes, where it only looks "pretty" and nothing more)
Mahoako vermin? Watching blue archive rn
>>4190861For the same reason that you no longer see series that have a slow start or develop like the first part of Jojo, everything has to be presented at once from episode/chapter 1 or people will get "bored" or complain that they were forced to "think."
I found the full version of the SoraMimi pic I requested a few threads ago.
>>4190860Useless internet arguments it is, then.
>>4190861Adachi has a shitty personality so far and it looks like it was illustrated by children with crayons. Also I miss this girl so much.
>>4190870meh, wake me up when Nikke gets an anime
>>4190874oh nice
>>4190882>Adachi has a shitty personalityJust like the original Adachi then.
>>4190870What?
>>4190870Even without the male MC, Blue Archive would be unwatchable garbage. After how much I've shat on the Kancolle anime, it's now a masterpiece compared to modern gacha adaptations.
>>4190882Wow, edgy.
>>4190599I might be mistaking it for the Queen's Blade iteration that for no reason added a shota
>>4190772>and then the couples all broke up and went their separate waysAh yes, exactly what we want in a yuri franchise.
>>4190894If it doesn't have the male MC from the game, or even any mention of him, it might be watchable.>>4190916Can't be worse than the Girls' Frontline anime.>male MCYup, it is worse.
It's really simple.The more effort something requires, the less yuri expectation/standard you should have. Fanfics are the easiest. It's completely intuitive so anyone can write (even if it's not good), and if you're writing "friendship fics", you should be sent to the gulagBut a full anime production? You gotta temper your expectation and give them a break for not going full yuri
>>4190938>and if you're writing "friendship fics", you should be sent to the gulagI wrote subtext yuri about two girl assassins and don't regret it one bit. Suck on it.
>>4190933I said Nikke because it was obvious for me that Anon was teasing some shitposting with a non-yuri subject, BA is bland as fuck and boring as hell but Nikke at the very least has sexier girls. Although it did had these two in the yuri department.
>>4190916>Even without the male MC, Blue Archive would be unwatchable garbage.With the first episode I don't understand anything of what was happening, did Japan become Detroit?>>After how much I've shat on the Kancolle animeYou know an anime isn't bad when waifufags complain like idiots that the characters aren't "owned" by them.
>>4190952Learn some English.
>>4190916>[Kancolle is] now a masterpiece compared to modern gacha adaptationsWas it really that bad, from the point of view of someone that didn't play the game?Or maybe bad gacha adaptations are inevitable. I know for a fact that if the Magireco anime adapted the game more closely it would've been a far better anime than it was.
>>4190960It felt really unfocused and tonally inconsistent. It couldn't decide between being a serious action show or an SOL comedy. It didn't do anything interesting with the setting, crammed too many characters in, and resorted to the dumb idea of the POV admiral when Nagato was already the admiral for all intents and purposes.Still, it was decently gay and fun and the movie was much better. Then there's the second season, which I think is a different continuity altogether. It was more tonally consistent but a lot less gay.
>>4190915Guy's saying "I don't like MahoAko, so I'm going to claim it's fans aren't yuri fans and are watching the seasonal het harem gacha trash right now with no evidence"It's a shitpost
>>4190960twas 50% serious plot and action and 50% sol comedyit just didnt work
>>4190952BA takes place in a fictional city called Kivotos. Like Index's academy citiy but even more exaggerated. It's not JapanThey apparently don't bother to explain the halos or some girls having animal or elf ears in the game
>>4190931>and then anon made up shit in bad faith because he's a hetshitter and wants the girls to actually break up and be for himAh yes, what we need in a yuri board. Surprise asshole, the internet and phones exist. Girls don't have to be together 24/7 to still be couples
>>4190965>a lot less gayNot in intensity, shouting the name of the girl you love before dying it is very gay to me.
>>4190975>anon made up shitNo, the movie did. And you did.
>>4190743
>>4190965>Then there's the second season, which I think is a different continuity altogether. It was more tonally consistent but a lot less gay.In itself it is not less gay, but it does not give the possible "couples" time to shine, that kiss on the cheek was nice, but insufficient.Shigure was a really good protagonist.>I know for a fact that if the Magireco anime adapted the game more closely it would've been a far better anime than it was.The problem would have been that a gacha is usually made to last indefinitely, that doesn't suit an anime well, look how bad the F/GO adaptations have turned out and having to force flash backs to fill the gaps.>>4190972This post is already better than the anime, although honestly I'm not very interested, I'm just watching this to see where all those girls who have fanart on Twitter and doujins on EX come from.>>4190986It doesn't, if you actually watched the movie, it all makes sense and is more satisfying than you might think (this is not a eupho)
>>4191000>The problem would have been that a gacha is usually made to last indefinitelyFile photo of Magireco EN players like myself...Also, I think it was confirmed that the anime would be a two cour series. That would have been a decent adaption of Part 1.
>>4191010First episode was meh but the second one was good.
>>4190894Those two and Yuni and Mihara are the closest we get to yuri in the gameThe fuck else is there?
>>4191033It's a China game. Can't expect any more.
>>4190972Is there an in universe answer for why some of the girls are half elf or have animal ears?Or why all the adults are animals or robots sans Sensei. I remember having to read something off game to find out the halos mean that every girl can shurg off mortar shells.
>>4191037No it's worse, it's Korean :(At least China has Impact 3rd and Reverse 1999 going for it
>>4191045>it's KoreanAbandon all hope
>>4191049Well, there was never any hope to begin with, I didn't really had any expectations
>>4191041>Is there an in universe answer for why some of the girls are half elf or have animal ears?AFAIK from game players, nope. They might in the future, but not yet.>Or why all the adults are animals or robots sans Sensei.No. It's just the korean staff blatantly pandering to self-inserters. I dunno why we're even talking about this. It doesn't belong here and they made it clear after they made sensei male in all manga and animeAt least F/GO has some serious manga starring Gudako adapting some main story arcs.
>>4191010New complaint by the anti-yuri hetshitter just droppedAfter Gundam "no kisses" MagiRevo "it's genderswap reincarnation" MahoAko's "muh male gaze and ecchi fans", LycoReco's "Majima", his shitpost against Jellyfish is "too polished. Lacks soul"Like the rest of them, it's meaningless nonsense to hate and shitpost a show
>>4190986The "break up" is the girls having different goals. That doesn't mean they have to cut all contact and forget about their girlfriends in the internet eraFuck off, hetshitter. The girls are still together. They'll never want you
>>4191061>The "break up" is the girls having different goalsAnd their "goals" so happen to be as far away from each other as possible.>The girls are still together.No, no they're not.>They'll never want youThey'll never want each other either. Also, stop projecting
>>4191065>Being phyisically far away means you can't use the internetStop acting like they went into seclusion in some mountains with no net access. The girls will always love their girflriends and never you or any other male.They're still together, even with different goals. Their love is strong enough to not be bothered by different goals or large physical distances. Cope and seethe, yuri denier. Fuck off to /a/ with your antiyuri bullshit
>>4191065Did you watch the movie you fucking retard? Maya and Claudine pledge repeatedly to be together for the rest of their lives. Futaba and Kaoruko are temporarily separating to learn to be more independent before reuniting (Futaba puts her fucking key ring on Kaoruko's ring finger, how more explicit do you want it to be that this isn't a break up?). I'll give you Nana and Juuna, but even they say they might see each other again. As for Hikari and Karen, the ending credits are literally Hikari taking a train to go be with Karen after high school, which again you would know if you watched the movie but of course you didn't.
Has anyone watched the Korean movie "The Summer"?If so did any of you like it?
>>4191065Nice, thank you for this post.This is some good proof that anti-yurifags are always around falseflagging.
>>4191072>>4191075S-shut up! I'm just frustrated at wasted potential, okay? Clearly I'm not trying to imply it's not yuri! Nope, never done that before.
>>4191075>Did you watch the movieYes, I did. A mistake on my part, as it was a shitty ending to a decent series.
>>4191093>>I'm just frustrated at wasted potential, okay?What wasted potential? The movie made good use of its elements, including the scene that made it clear that Mahiru hates Hikari, although from what I've seen, the movie's entire message went over most people's heads.>>4191095It wasn't, unless it happened like I said before, everything the movie did went over your head.It's one thing to watch a series and another to understand it.
>>4191075>Mahiru not mentionedPoor Yaya
>>4191105Don't worry, she has her own mobage-only potential girlfriend, I want to say the same thing about Nana but Hisame tends to like every handsome woman that she meets and that isn't Tendo Maya.
>>4190598yes, it ends in chapter 17 with natori transporting lapis back to japan with her and them becoming depressed ols that can't even have sex
>>4191080I watched it. Aside from the barely coherent subs I was stuck with, I thought it was fine. It's a frustrating movie by design because it's about a relationship slowly falling apart, but I thought it was done well.>>4191105Mahiru will fuck Judy Knighley in El Dorado, trust the plan.

I am liking gbc more than jellyfish
I already dropped Jellyfish
I'm trying to learn Spanish, what are the best yuri anime dubbed in Spanish?
>>4191269Kannazuki no Miko
>>4191269MahoAko
>>4191269Adachi and Shimamura
>>4191281All you've told me is that you don't know how to write Jellyfish's director is eromanga's director, this is how it's done, if you're trying to sound like a massive moron congratulations you made it!!!
>>4191281And? Does that make Jellyfish a bad series, or het?
>>4191286>her isYou mean "he is" right also stop samefagging you're the only faggot who watches hetshit in here.
Reading the first chapter of Virgin's Empire and I really see what people mean when they say "yuri written by men for men"
>>4191285>Does that make Jellyfish a bad seriesToo early to tell>or het?Wasn't even implying that>And? And jellyfish is a yuri anime with a lot of unsavory fanservice made by a director who already made a series with a lot of unsavory fanservice, that's all>>4191287>you are samfagging!Take your pills, faggot. Every accusation is a confession
>>4191309What happened?
>>4191286>all the fanserviceThere was a few in episode 1 but then none in episode 2. Did you even watch it before spouting off nonsense?
>>4191309You can tell it's not a woman writting because the fanservice is too tame and does not include rape.
>>4191309It gets better. It goes from pretty much just ecchi to surprisingly wholesome yet still kinda lewd.
>>4191320I honestly don't understand why are you getting mad over this, there is fanservice in the show and you can't erase it, get mad at the director and not me if you dislike it so much. My guess is that they really were shotting at all directions with the first episode.
>>4191328The author takes a while to get the formula right, you can tell he was aiming for a more subtexty approach at first, but eventually got around doing actual romance plots, it's funny how there were straight girls at first.Though I really disliked how the fujo girls were all about boring delusions instead of actually interacting with other girls, thankfully the author eventually realized this.
>>4191339>>4191309 It turns off into a completely different thing later on, and it gets better
why do /u/ people always shit on yuri i like and praise yuri i hate
>>4191332>madAre you retarded? I have exactly zero problem with fanservice, I am just stating fact that episode 2 had no fanservice. You were the one who's mad because it had a FEW fanservice in episode 1 and tried to make it sound like the show threw fanservice after fanservice after fanservice at the viewers when this is clearly not true.
>>4191349Contrarianism...
>>4191349Maybe you just have shit taste.
>>4191349Because you have good taste.
>>4191357Is this the latest "it's not yuri because x"? First of all, there is nothing wrong with having fanservice. Secondly, even IF fanservice is wrong, there were like two scenes that can truly be called fanservice in the whole anime so far, the one where Yoru was with her imouto and the other one where Yoru was in the bath. How exactly is that a lot of unsavory fanservice?
>>4191367Woops didn't mean to quote.
>>4191367Did you forget the muh male gaze shit shitposters used to deny MahoAko being yuri? This is just an extension of that.
>>4188072So I finished MyGO. It was extremely good, but I have to admit I was expecting slightly more yuri from /u/ hyping it up so much.
Just finished the first Princess Principal movieREALLY enjoyed it, but I wish it had more Ange/Princess moments besides the very cute ED...
>>4191317>unsavory fanserviceBuddy, if the female body grosses you out so much, you should head for /y/ or /cm/ instead.
>>4191386nta, but i just finished it a few days ago too. i saw a lot of Anon x Soyo fanart beforehand, and was surprised when nothing really yuri happened between the two. I mean the yuri fanart of anon is like 90% of her with Soyo for some reason, despite Tomori playing a much larger role in Anons life and the two supporting eachother the whole series
>>4191349Chisato's big ol' hands.
>>4191386>>4191399I stumbled across a shit load of MyGO fanart on twitter, some of them looked really good and was tempted to wtach the anime until I learned it was basically another idol anime...which never goes anywhere
>>4191401Well she's wearing gloves...
>>4191367>Is this the latest "it's not yuri because x"?>>4191374>Did you forget the muh male gaze shit shitposters used to deny MahoAko being yuri? This is just an extension of that.Get your eyes checked. Nothing in the post implied yuri denial.
>>4191398What a projection.I am sorry that I didn't like a couple of scenes.
>>4191351Ah anon while I don't dislike fanservice myself the type of the fanservice they is basically the most cringe type and like that anon said it's not surprising at all the director comes from one of the most embarassing series to ever exist that pander to the worst scum on earth
Yorukura is now my favorite yuri anime of the season.
>>4191416good choice
>>4191399Anon/Soyo is supported not only by the fans of the relationship but also by salty hater Rickyfags who want to break up Anon/Tomori pairing because they realize that Ricky doesn't stand a chance without deus ex machina. Little did they know that Anon can take both!

Out of the sinophere nations, only Vietnam and North Korea don't produce any yuri. What do these people have to say for themselves?
>>4191448>North KoreaHow do you know? Maybe Kim is just hording all the yuri for himself.
>>4190416Prove it, bitch.
>>4189365Thanks for the confirmation, sis. I just finished it. It's true that it's not that good but I really enjoyed it.
>>4191450>Maybe Kim is just hording all the yuri for himself.More likely than you think.https://www.crunchyroll.com/news/features/2018/12/27/2018-in-review-top-anime-of-2018-by-country>There was one particularly interesting upset--the girls love romance series citrus won the year in The People’s Democratic Republic of Korea!

>>4191403>another idol animeIdol where? and it's even worse and more pathetic with the anons here, because MyGO is basically the fourth season of the BanG dream anime and it's something that has basically been yuri since the beginning and what MyGO really did was push that even further.
Remember High-Rise Invasion?
>>4191585I thought it was a horror/gore anime with no yuri.
>>4191585I do, I even read up the manga up to the translations a year ago? It ended?That was nice yuri with Tanya-chan AU.Female gaze fanservice was especially good
>>4191602Nobody cares what you like.
>>4191602This is bait.
>>4191604You certainly do...
>>4191602Kodama Naoko's yuri narratives are about two girls getting together romantically or sexually, subtext will never survive if the maintext dictates the girls like boys, it doesn't matter how nice you drscribe the girls relationships, friendship will never compare to romantic love.
>>4191607>subtext will never survive if the maintext dictates the girls like boysI wasn't talking about that... if it's maintext het romance then there is no yuri
>>4191609>bislut yuriYes, it's bait.
ppl who never read her works always use Kodamanaoko in their weaponized shitposts
>>4191602What the fuck is this post trying to say? The presence of males is not the same as the presence of boyfriends.
>>4191615But I read all her works? Why are you accusing me of that?
>>4191618You don't want me to point out all times when one of the girls have a bf...If the story is about two girls then a lot of unsavory things can happen but it would still be yuri as long as it fulfill the main criteria
>>4191620If they break up and the girl end up with a girl, then sure. If it's like Hibike then no.
>>4191622>If they break up and the girl end up with a girl, then sure. If it's like Hibike then no.Alright, that's my exact stance as well.>>4191624>That is, the criteria of not having males, let alone boyfriends, at any point.Wrong >>>/china/ >>>/girl's_love/
>>4191624>not having males at any pointSo /u/ can only discuss stuff like Mahoako? I'm glad we don't have to pretend Marimite is yuri anymore.
>>4191628And nothing of that is yuri.
>>4191624That's not a criterium of yuri.
>>4191618>What the fuck is this post trying to say?It isn't trying to say anything, it's just shitposting.
>>4191633And you're wrong.
>>4191636So stories where girls are interested in guys or have boyfriends are yuri? What are het stories, then?
I never read any of cannos manga, are they worth it?
Bocchi the Rock Anthology v3 will have Chigusa Minori participating in it. Now we'll get to see if it's true that she can only draw two types of girls like anons love to claim.
>>4191656I canno say.
>>4191660Kanousei ga aru.
>>4191658Oh sick a RyoxBocchi chapter
>>4191654>cheating and abandoning their boyfriends/husbandsMaybe if it happens in a timely manner. As in, chapter 2 at the latest.
>>4191397I want them to get married in the second to last movie and the last movie is just a fun slice of life of them on their honeymoon.
>>4191668You have stories where it takes a while for them to realize their feelings, but the narrative itself is clear from the start.
>>4191692Your strawman doesn't actually exist.
>>4191692Usually it's one or two volumes and it's rare then the romance part isn't ommited, unless you are reading Manhwa.
>>4191694Neither does "yuri" where the girls have boyfriends, by definition.
I like this onehttps://mangadex.org/title/6fc1c54b-7285-4a51-8c8b-22838f04eb26/kono-koi-wo-hoshi-ni-wa-negawanaiBecause unlike many others, were MC is forever angst over the girl she likes getting a boyfriend, she gets a girlfriend instead and the other girl is the one who got upset over this.

>>4191697Definitions are not absolute, there's always exceptions.
>>4191705Anon is clearly a Sith.
>>4191707Did you ever hear the tragedy of Akemi Homura the Wise?I thought not. It's not a story the magical girls would tell you. It's a witch legend: Akemi Homura was a purple magical girl so powerful, and so gay, she could use her wish to influence the very Law of Cycles... to save lives. She had such a knowledge of curses, she could even keep the ones she cared about from not existing.The dark seed of a soul gem is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... unnatural.
it's driving me nutts bcs friends of friends straight girls baby weebs wanna get into yuri and like the stories with bi girls and/or cheating moreits like all the josei authors were right for their audiences, figurespls like and subscribe
>>4191730Excuse you, I have a doctorate in Akemi Homura studies and wrote my thesis on the use of dichotomy inherent within the tale.

>>4191786Best Korea with the best taste.
I find the situation with GBC disproportionate popularity amusing. Not that it's a bad show, but the hype and amount of fanart as of episode 3 is clearly greater than what can be generated by projects of similar scope and quality. It's like a lot of people were baffled by last year's results with MyGO ending up at the top of all sorts of rankings and they felt they made a mistake by habitually ignoring the "3DCG idol gacha whatever shit" and missed something important. And now they're latching on to an obviously similar show to make sure they don't get left out of another historic moment this time around for sure.
>>4191861I don't think it's that deep. GBC just has more stomachable CG, a high-tier character designer behind all of the promotional artwork, and a big advertising push from Toei.
>>4191861If it's so popular, why is nobody subbing it?
>>4191658You don't have to wait to know that she can barely even draw more than one type when it's not her own characters.
>>4191865>If it's so popular, why is nobody subbing it?Because all the good fansubbers from yonder years either got paid gigs for making translated subs or moved on especially once official simulcasting became a norm. And now we're in a bizarre situation where simulcasting is ubiquitous but somehow no English-speaking company picked up Girls Band Cry. Now we're in a rare situation where there a re very few fansubbers
>>4191865An anon is subbing it though?
>>4191870Raimon a cute

>>4191865*laughs in not being an EOP*
>>4191865>why is nobody subbing it?Maybe we'd have translations if some shitposter hadn't gone ahead and stolen subs from someone else to meme them up.
Highspeed etoile is subbed
>>4191885Once again, an anon is subbing it. Also, the source of that stolen subs was an MTL from French subs so it's shit anyway.
>>4191865No french to english translators.
>>4191865>posts this after the non-MTL fansub was finished
>>4191888>Highspeed etoileIs it gay gay or just normal spokon gay
>>4191890>an anon is subbing it>>4191892Where? It aint on catsite
>>4191460There are some exceptions.But I agree in the general sense that most characters (and even stories) in gacha games ultimately lead to nowhere.Sure some pairings may get popular for a while. Some pairings may stay popular for a long time. But it's all just fanart/content in the end. One should never pick up a gacha game just for yuri, and arguably it's better to just not pick up gacha games period.
>>4191460literally no one was expecting explicit yuri from MYGO, not even the posters youre replying to, why are you bringing this up? Cant even discuss subtext or ships anymore without someone sperging out
>>4191937
GBC!Man, Nina is a riot.Girlcringe, girlfailure, girlloser.Loving it, it's like Bocchi that is self-aware and insists upon itself.Anyway, anyone has intrusive thoughts about Octave while watching it? Failed idol moving to Tokyo and meeting blonde bijin who changes her life and turns into lesbian. Kinda similarish? I have hope that it would be turned into anime sometime this decade, that would be sick

Yuri about two girls just wanting to go to sleep next to each other...

>>4189916>flip flappers director>two girls being close i would've been happy about this if i hadn't read the mango beforewould still watch even though it's not yuri
>>4192109there are two girls inside the author, they are gay
>>4191861I dunno, I just think Nina and Momoka are interesting and have the potential to be a top tier pairing.
Adult yuri with adult problems, such as gaining weight(in midsection and thighs), stiff joints during working out, overnight tax calculations because you're one lazy dyke, sleeping with your makeup on, and horrible cramps during your period.

>>4191399Friends can play a role in someone's life too. If after going to an aquarium together they don't show any tension ever, artists get bored. SxA brings a lot of tension. Also wounds to heal, new love to be found, flaws to be embraced, possible BDSM, love/hate, push/pull. If I could draw, I'd never get bored of them.

>>4192305Someone needs to synchronize it to a music box version of either Agony or Magnet.
>>4192416Please don’t attach such classics to a current year show that hasn’t proved itself
>>4192416Continue attaching such classics to new yuri anime every season.
>>4192273>>4192298>HatersI don't think you have to be a hater to assess that this scene, and in fact the whole show up to this point, honestly is not very yuri. That being said, I still of course think there's potential.
>>4192421It's girls getting flustered at being told another girl loves them, how is that NOT yuri?
>>4192421>in fact the whole show up to this point, honestly is not very yuriI thought that the lesbian's crush in the previous episode was portrayed in a mostly positive way.
>>4192424Nonoka was really not so much Mei's crush as she was her idol. There's a notable difference.
>>4192427I don't think you're supposed to sexually sniff your idol's sweaty jacket.
>>4192433You're not supposed to, but people still do. They also collect locks of their hair, used napkins, occasionally jars of their farts.
>>4192433>>4192434Mind you, I say all this as a fan of Oshibudou, so...
>>4192434>>4192434Right, and in most of those cases, there is clearly some sort of romantic or sexual aspect to their feelings towards their idol. Especially when she comments in the next episode about wanting her love.
Watching Girls Band Cry and Yoru no Kurage is so confusing. I keep mixing up the characters in one show with the other's. Both of them have former idols/band members who look exactly the same and have similar personalities and relationships with the MC.
Whats this?
>>4192166Or just have an OL getting scolded by Yuu or Sayaka
>>4192436Yes, and my point is that it's more likely a kind of attraction that's closer to obsession. It's a borderline unhealthy love that can be seen as more idolatry than something more similar to a normal crush.But like I said, I'm a long-time fan of the manga Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu, but I also think that series does its take on idol yuri in a unique way.>Especially when she comments in the next episode about wanting her love.Any fan would want that.But all that being said, do you really see Mei's end goal as having a relationship with Kano, or do you think she just wants to continue seeing her perform?
the sasakoi translators were being really lenient with their translations for the subtitles it looks like...
>>4192658youre gonna have to elaborate furhter
>>4192613>it's a borderline unhealthyYet it has resulted in a number of positive effects in this case, with Mei becoming better at piano and standing up for herself.>do you really see Mei's end goal as having a relationship with Kano, or do you think she just wants to continue seeing her perform?I think her end goal is irrelevant from the yuri perspective. She's obviously not going to get with Kano romantically (even if that's her goal) because the most likely romantic pairing if something were to actually happen is Kano and Yoru. Rather, I am using how her overwhelming affection is portrayed and reacted to as a barometer for future yuri between those two. If Mei was portrayed in a more "one-sided yuri crush whose affection is off-putting towards everyone" kind of way, it would at least signal to me that the series unlikely to go down the yuri route at all.

>>4192703>>4192706>>4192707Poor Sumika. She must have been a Hitler in previous life to fall in love with blue haired psycho
>>4192613>>4192696You both fucking autists. Dismissing love? Not seeing it? Making demands on it?>nooo if it's fan to oshi it doesn't count>if it's obsessive it is not love>noooo [whatever retarded reason it's not love] It is love plain and simple. It doesn't matter what happens in the end what us going right now is love. And if it is girl's love to another girl then it is yuri too!I am enjoying watching the yuri anime and if you need to wait for a "confirmation" for it to become yuri it only means how small your understanding of yuri is.
>>4192701you kisama
>>4192701It’s just the plague that is localization. Give an inch and they take a mile.I strongly recommend learning Japanese so you don’t have to deal with this crap. And trust me getting to a level where you can watch anime is very easy.
>>4192701This is HiDive. Same site that had MahoAkoThey’re also doing Jellyfish this season
>>4192855I will never learn Japanese
>>4192865I am not seeing anything that contradicts subtext tho?LycoReco is romantic, Aquatope is romantic, Seiyuu Radio is romantic. Just subtext.
>>4192870>LycoReco is romanticOne-sided subtext has got to be the lowest common denominator of yuri.
>>4192865>AI shill
>>4192871Sharo from gochiusa is onesided subtext, Takina is not.
>>4192865>AI garbage You will have to imagine my mocking reaction image because the limit has been reached
I don't think we should stop at trusting AI just to define a genre. We should also trust it to create works in that genre. Not a single drop of disgusting subtext should seep into the final product, not the slightest reason for ambiguity, only certified lesbians coming off a certified conveyor belt. Can the human author, with their inherent weaknesses and preferences, do this? Of course not.I'm pretty sure that's how the so-called baihe is created.
>>4192893Stop limiting maintext to adaptations that generally have lower production than subtext originalsAt least give the adaptation better productions and staffsLike, I don't think Lyco'd be as successful if it looked like WataOshi
>>4192838>It doesn't matter what happens in the end what us going right now is loveIf you classify all love between girls as yuri, shouldn't you still be able then to distinguish between romantic yuri and friendship yuri? And if "kissfags" are so annoying to you, wouldn't it be better to develop a way to judge which series will go that far in the first place so that they never disrupt you appreciating all the different kinds of love between girls?
>>4192930There is nothing that can be done about it, the whole point is to sell the source content and they know it has a limited range of sales, they don't need a big budget or more than one season to reach those.
>>4192164>horrible cramps during your period.Acetaminophen, little one.
New bread doko?
>>4192943>If you classify all love between girls as yuri, shouldn't you still be able then to distinguish between romantic yuri and friendship yuri? No? Yuri is yuri>And if "kissfags" are so annoying to you, wouldn't it be better to develop a way to judge which series will go that far in the first place No. If it's subtext yuri, then I get to eat a nice cake, if there is a kiss in the end, then I get to have a strawberry on the top. But in the end the cake is all that matters.Kissfags would be like people who throw out the cakes because they didn't have a strawberry on the top. No matter how I see it, subtextchads are at the clear advantage>>so that they never disrupt you appreciating all the different kinds of love between girls?They are not disrupting shit tho? It's like laughing at mentally disabled people, I like to do that in the pauses of my life to have some fun
>>4193004>They are not disrupting shit tho>I just go on autistic rants every other day, f-for fun, please believe me
>>4193004>yuri is yuriWhy are there no sub-genres? Even in regular romance, there's a difference between a romantic drama and a romcom even though they're both in the romance genre.>then I get to have a strawberry on the topBut in your metaphor, the strawberry clearly makes the cake different from the one with no strawberry. So wouldn't it at least interesting to find some sort of way to see which cakes will have strawberries and which ones won't?By the way, do you consider Reina and Kumiko's relationship in Hibike to be yuri? What about a FFM threesome where all they love each other?
>>4193012NTA but yuri is not a genre, much like het is not a genre. Both are terms that describe the type of relationship shown in a story.>By the way, do you consider Reina and Kumiko's relationship in Hibike to be yuri? What about a FFM threesome where all they love each other?No to both for obvious reasons
>>4193014No, yuri can be a genre and an element of a work, just like romance can be. And the last question was posed to him, not anyone else.
>>4193009Yeah, dude, it's me, I am crying and shitting rn, every post that has ever went against your tastes on /u/ and /a/? All me
>>4193012>By the way, do you consider Reina and Kumiko's relationship in Hibike to be yuri? No, because they apparently didn't like each other enough not to pursue their pedoteacher or a cardboard boy classmate.>What about a FFM threesome where all they love each other?Presence of the male invalidates yuri. Even in the Brides of Iberis MC couldn't stand that shit.
>>4193018>like each other enoughSo there is a line that divides certain kinds of friendship and friendship yuri to you? So not all friendship between girls counts as yuri then.
>>4193020It must be the most important thing in the world to them
>>4193015How is it a genre? Romance sure, it can be present in a story as an element subtextually or as a minor subplot, or it can be the entire point of the story at which point the story would fall into the romance genre. All of the previously mentioned types can be het, yaoi, or yuri, and you can’t have those 3 without having a romantic element in the story. Those 3 are always just descriptive terms of that element and can’t exist on their own. So when I say I’m reading action yuri, what I mean is that I’m reading an action story with a romantic element that consists of female x female.>>4193020There might be a line if I sat and thought about it, but it’s easier to give an example: Shinobu and Alice are yuri, while Shinobu and Aya/Yoko/Karen are friends.

>>4193027Yuri would be a sub-genre of romance that focuses mostly on female-female romance, just like romcoms and romantic drama are sub-genres of romance.>>4193022>>4193027Right, so even between girls, the most important relationship between them would be considered yuri whereas the others would not. So in the context of Jellyfish, there is obviously going to be a question of which relationship between Kano, Yoru, and Mei will be one the most important (and thus yuri) one. There might even be the possibility that none of the relationships are that important, and they will all go their separate ways in the end. So to me, it seems reasonable to consider which relationships will be yuri in the end.
>>4193029Only four of these posts say (You). Anyway, hello ackemi, now you are posting in /u/ too? Hope you get permabanned...
>>4193034>there is obviously going to be a question of which relationship between Kano, Yoru, and Mei will be one the most important (and thus yuri) oneNo, I meant the most important relationship not over all but for each girl. For the Stalker-chan Nono-tan is already the most important, so this is already yuri. No matter what, even if everyone else go on to find a bf or Yoru and Blondie get together the Stalker-chan's Unrequited Love Yuri would always be there (unless she betrays that love).There are yuri tragedy stories with one-sided sided loves, don't we?Tl;dr: we already have one sided yuri
>>4193034>Yuri would be a sub-genre of romance that focuses mostly on female-female romanceBut that’s not a subgenre, much like how het romance isn’t a subgenre. Yuri is just a descriptive term for the type of romantic element present in a story, regardless of whether that story is a thriller, action, romance, or mystery story. >just like romcoms and romantic drama are sub-genres of romance.These are actual subgenres.
>>4193041>even if Yoru and Blondie get togetherIf that's not guaranteed to happen, then what's the harm in predicting if it's going to happen or not? If there's one-sided yuri already then why not predict if there will be two-sided yuri.>>4193042>much like how het romance isn’t a subgenrePersonally, I would consider heterosexual romance to be subgenre of the overall romance genre. And it's okay if we have different definitions.
>>4193044What would be an example of something that’s purely romance then, with none of its subgenres?
>>4193044>If that's not guaranteed to happen, then what's the harm in predicting if it's going to happen or not? If there's one-sided yuri already then why not predict if there will be two-sided yuri.This whole discussion started because you denied yuri>>4192421>the whole show up to this point, honestly is not very yuriIf you agree that GBC at minimum at the current moment does actually have yuri then I am losing interest in further discussion because you would be agreeing with me
https://twitter.com/kyoruyeye/status/1781766121299038335>Sasakoi getting hit tweets with the normiesawesome, I hope it keeps getting popular
>>4193042>a descriptive term for the type of element present in a storyThat is what a genre is.
>>4193049The other anon denied it being yuri completely. I acknowledged that it already has a kind of one-sided yuri, and was using how that one-sided yuri was depicted to predict if there would be any two sided yuri.>>4193048If the two featured a romance between two characters whose genders were never specified.
>>4193050The manga is very popular with teens.
Are flannels still /u/ accepted outfit?
>>4193054It is useless trying to predict how original anime goes. Oriental mind is prone to randomness and they don't let silly things like narrative logic of character development to stand in the way of their desired ending.Maybe next episode Momoka would die and the rest would continue the band in her name, you just have no idea
>>4193054>If the two featured a romance between two characters whose genders were never specified.A type of story that is practically non-existent. Classifying by standard genres + het/yaoi/yuri as descriptive terms is straightforward and more logical. We can agree to disagree though.
>>4193058I don't think zoomer/alpha lesbians understand the flannel meme.
>>4193063I thought other Millennials wore it because some suicide victim also wore back in the day.
>>4193063>alpha lesbiansWe really need a better name for this generation. A real Stacy would have a full wardrobe of flannel
>>4193058>tfw no carabiner yuri
>>4193050>western twitterUseless.
When I asked, someone replied that Kodama Naoko self-inserts into the one who is opposite with big boobs.But now that I took a closer look both of them have huge tits.What does that mean exactly?
>>4193065Pretty sure most who are intentionally wearing it are just wearing it as a (varying degrees of ironic) callback to 90s butch lesbian depictions in media, alongside shit like jean jackets. Just overtly, overly masculine clothing styles similar to how 20s lesbians wore costume-y men's clothing. And then that has a secondary spread by virtue of younger lesbians seeing lesbians wearing those element so they fold it into their style. But late (that is, younger) zoomzooms and alphas hard veered into the whole non-binary thing and build their sense of fashion from general newer fashion trends, so they just kinda wear dumb tiktok fashion androgynous stuff. I imagine the acceptability of being gay also plays into this, since 00s and older lesbians had to dress to signal while retaining some plausible deniability, where younger gays can just outright wear pride crap. Not much reason to wear plaid when you can just wear a rainbow belt.
>>4193067"Stacy" has too many het connotations to me. We should just call them "Shizuma".And btw, true Shizumas exclusively have long sleek shining hair, wear the finest tailored outfits whether they be elegant glowing dresses or dapper fitted suits, and exude an aura of supreme femininity that makes lesser women green with envy and red with desire (turning them some shade of purple as a result).
>>4193083She gained weight and her boobs got a little bit bigger
>>4193067Well, I saw someone wore a flannel dress once, it's really cute>>4193085I love long, detailed posts like this
>>4193055Good for them, it's going to be positive nostalgia for the future
>>4193085>younger gays can just outright wear pride crapI for one don't like this trend. I like the mystery, and if it's that open there's no mystery.

>>4191945i would definitely never be the same if octave came out with an anime. i reread it dozens of times for absolutely no reason i mostly wish that virgin's empire had an anime, even if almost every piece of ecchi had to be scrubbed from the surface. (i'm desperate.)
