>>

So its a bislut manga not a yuri manga.
>>
>>4306792
The whole manga is basically shit about lesbians not being real, because besides the mc (big maybe) everyone fucks dudes insteae and girls are an afterthought even to the literal sex demon.

I bet you money the reason they broke up was over sex too.
>>
>>4306796
I wouldn't go that far, but the author is definitely the brand of jap "yuri" author who thinks yuri is just bisexual girls who happen to be with a girl but would do a guy too.
Of which there wre shockingly many, leading to shit like the manga mentioned earlier too.
The manga itself just has a disappointingly gross start because of it, for a otherwise sofar vapid fluff piece.

Dunno why you're bringing up marriage when no one's mentioned anything but sex (shit as that is), but just to play Devil's Advocate:

Could have a story centered around a lesbian forced into a het marriage for whatever cultural or historical context cucking her "husband" by sleeping with numerous mistresses.

Enjoy the golden age of yuri.
>>
>>4306882
>Could have a story centered around a lesbian forced into a het marriage for whatever cultural or historical context cucking her "husband" by sleeping with numerous mistresses.
Similar stuff exists. JKxHousewife did it for example. In fact quite a lot of manga about JKs seducing or being seduced by older woman basically do this. They just don't really pay attention to the husband/implied hetsex that probably happened at some point (nor the NTR aspect). Not to mention old non-anime class s stuff.
>>
>>4306822
Didn't Sayaka basically go and get her own Yuu? I never got around to reading the LNs but the meme's made me believe so?

Just read all of the translated chapters so far. It's okay but can be sleep inducing sometimes. Also anyone can see that her ex-girlfriend didn't actually get with a guy and was just using that excuse for some reason that will definitely be revealed soon.

Maybe the ridiculousness of light novel summary-titles has gotten to me, but something about the blunt simplicity of this title just messes with my mind.

The best yuri manga right now is Pinky Candy Kiss.
>>
>>4306894
Watch her end up with a succubus too.
>>
>>4306894
>and was just using that excuse
It happened a while after they broke up, so at most it'd be some weird jealousy angle since she seems extremly jelly of the succubus. I doibt that part is made up, but we're definitely gonna hear more about why they broke up at some point.

Anyway, maybe succubus' hot mom that showed up recently will get yuri correction and the manga will redeem itself.
>>
>>4306439
I hope this is yuri, the author's past works have a high ratio of yuri.
>>
>>4306889
It just isn't the same. For one, Haru's personality is completely different from Yuu's. I want Yuu and Sayaka to slowly fall for each other.

>Oh yeah I think I am attracted to my best friend because years ago I tried to kiss her

Yes that's my problem. Why write about adults when they have the emotional maturity of teenagers?

Author is probably struggling to properly write adult drama which isn't boring, dumbing down the characters is usually the way most find.

Kek, look at what I stumbled upon:
https://lezwatchtv.com/
Now, a library of lesbian characters sounds nice, but this site doesn't fill me with confidence. The Manaria Friends entry is criticized for being male gazy, so that's a shitty start. Also no anime is rated well.
And I can't decide if the entries for Yuru Yuri and Symphogear are pathetic, sad or insulting, or maybe all three.
It implies that there are straight characters in Yuru Yuri and if the MCs of Flip Flappers count as confirmed homosexuals, so do the Gears (or Strike Witches for that matter).
Just some curiosity I found, even if it sucks.

I have no issue with the website doing it, it's what is expected from it, but you starting an argument about it here is another thing. Culture is always changing, we wouldn't be discussing japanese lesbianism otherwise, but male gaze, fanservice or whatever word you have for it, is not one of those things, if anything they are laughing looking at the west burning billion dollar franchises to the ground because they decide to have the ugliest looking characters they could and giving an opportunity for anime and manga to grow without much competition.

I've been watching some older anime lately (such as Hanayamata, Konohana Kitan and GochiUsa) and I've realized we just don't get shows like that anymore. They have so much style and character, you instantly recognize what you're watching, whether it's the visuals, the music or the setting.
Most of the anime we get today is just sterile in comparison, it all feels the same, AI drawn or traced background and OST so bland it reminds you of royalty free music. There's no art in it anymore.
>>
>>4307013
Isn't Adashima a male written yuri with fetish stuff? Shimamura also sometimes acts like a pervy male on Adachi. Citrus on the other hand is female written and the characters don't randomly come off as creepy. Yeah there's rape, but only in episode 1 and not exactly depicted in a good light.
>>
>>4306995
Why would women write yaoi erotica?

It's honestly just not that interesting, the whole story relies on a predicable twist which ultimately comes in the expense of actual character interactions and chemistry building, the whole theather thing is already a very boring thematic by itself.

I wish Noighd would just pick the wolf among us manga, so we could have an actual gay as fuck manga to speculate stuff about, but it's also already clear to me Noighd just wants to pick obscure axebait stuff.

Once a volume comes out, you can check the sales ranks with trackers like the above site. I also take low amazon rating counts as a bad sign. It's not perfect, but it's pretty accurate.
>>
>>4307343
The textbook definition does not apply to novels or text, it was a concept created for criticism of movies and art, it was never meant to extent itself to criticize female behaviour like you are doing by implying a woman would only ever act out of female stereotypes unless it's for the pleasure of the male viewer (or again, the reader).

Your oldshit anime all did the same back in the day, copying each other
Stop overrating oldshit. The ones that stand out are the exception. Yuri being a niche means that any anime relevant to this board are less likely to be afforded the luxury. The kind of good staffs and animators needed to make it work want to work on stuff for large audiences: so het which will forever be the largest audience and dwarf yuri audiencesç
If you want to be a yuri fan you need to give up this shallow attachment to visuals
>>
>>4307378
You're kinda missing the whole point. Hanayamata or Konohana Kitan were not some massive productions intended for "large audiences", yet both look excellent with a distinct visual style.
It's not about money, although yuri is a lot more popular nowadays than even 5-10 years ago, so if anything budgets should be bigger.

Kurumi is a vampire while Naoi is some kind of shapeshifting cat familiar.
>>
>>4307381
Budgets don't help squat when there's no talented personel to work on because if yuri is bigger, so is het, which is where the talented staffs go most of the time. There's too many shows and too little talented staff. Fans of the niche stuff like yuri have to consider two choices:
1) lower their demands for visual quality
2) Abandon their niche and go to the many het shows that monopolize the good staffs
You're also overrating how unique those old shows were
Konohana Kitan looked very generic, no different from new stuff. If Konohana Kitan counts as looking good and unique so does something like MahoAko

>>
>>4307521
Multiple people have replied to inee's tweets with scanlated panels of Love Bullet. Obviously she must've already known about the situation as soon as English-speaking people started buying the manga en masse if not earlier, but it must be awkward to have it thrown in her face, especially in the event the publisher checks her twitter account. Some people are just that dumb.
>>
>>4307525
Didn't she specifically thank overseas fans for helping her stay afloat?
>>
>>4307526
Yes, but the tweets had to say things like how they're supporting the manga despite it being written in Japanese and how it's a vote of confidence. Of course she can't say she knows people only did that because they "somehow" read it in English.
>>
>>4307521
this is why we cant have nice things.
i doubt theyre unaware of the fan translations community, especially after incidents like watamote using the popularity created by them to start official english releases, but it is pretty tactless to be that upfront about essentially pirating the authors work to their face.

I read the first five volumes (the two of Konohanaten Kitan and the first three of Konohana Kitan), I'll catch up once it's over and the official English releases are out. I don't want to add yet another slow series I'd have to follow volume by volume due to no scans.

>if yuri is bigger, so is het, which is where the talented staffs go most of the time
>the many het shows that monopolize the good staffs
People always talk about how het is so much more popular than yuri but where are these supposed popular and high-budget seasonal het romances? I couldn't name a single example from the last few years if my life depended on it, and while there's obviously a 'yuri bubble' effect going on there, I've seen tons of people who don't follow yuri at all that know MahoAko. The impression I have is that het-qua-het romance shows are viewed as a niche and trashy guilty-pleasure and the stuff that soaks up budgets is just general SFF/action/shōnenshit

>>4307588
I guess it depends how you define romance? Does Oshi no Ko count? I agree with you most romcoms and harem series also have shit budget and are not really that much popular than your average yuri show. I guess Kaguya and Rent a Girlfriend are the most popular ones.
>>
>>4307588
It's because het fans often don't actually want to see direct romance since it reminds them of their own romantic failings. They prefer the constant tease and of course harem setups. It's why shit like uzaki chan or the brown girl show is so popular.
>>
>>4307588
Het creeps into all other genres, you’re right about pure romance but you’ll rarely find a show without het romance shit in it

Neither ate that popular though, the later even had a strange bordeline asexual ending which got mocked on /a/

The big ZenKowa announcement ended up being an online merchandise lottery. The vast majority of the designs are reused from previous merch or chapters. Or in the case of the Halloween images, was year-old twitter artwork. A few of the images are photoshopped onto different pieces of merch that look like they were put together quickly, like the photo of Kurumi, Naoi, and Kokoro in the white picture frame.

About the only seeming new piece is pic related if it doesn't turn out to the something else from volume 3.

The lottery isn't to prevent scalping, its to get more money for the same effort. If someone wants the yuri tapestry they would be able to buy it for 3000 yen in a normal sale. In a lottery they have to buy a dozen entries just to have a small % chance of getting it. No one is buying up yuri product to sell on the yuri grey market, there's not enough demand to move the volume and people would be sitting on inventory forever.

We already told you, bookwalker tags are automatically generated by their search algorithm

If you just want smut, look up Mira. If you want a smutty manga, Asumi-chan and " I won't sleep with you for free" are good choices.
MahoAko of course has smut and action, but comparatively its not that smutty (though much more than Murcielago, especially later Murcielago).

Everything mentioned would fulfill this criteria, to different degrees. Asumi and IWSWYFF are explicit porn, MahoAko has sex, butnit treats it as a "lewds for lust, sex for love" so its rare and Murcielago has actual sex for the first few volumes and then kinds stops for some reason.

Nothing compared to the urasex when the Urasekai picnic's manga will reach that part with its 50th volume.

To be fair to that particular manga, breaking up wasn't novel but it did try to distinguish itself a little. I dropped the manga, but credit where credit is due. Something not being fluffy and flowers is not a mark of distinction, however.

Toji no Miko has Kanami and Hiyori which kinda fits.
Vivid Strike has Rinne, but she loses to everybody.
Harukana Receive is about pairs, but Kanata is pretty useless because she is short so that kinda also fits.
Revue Starlight touches on that theme also.
Uma Musume has a lot of this.

because 'sadistic skimpy dressed nun' is her whole schtick. her regular lounge wear is even skimpier than that, infact i think the 'sexy lingerie' is just what she wears under her nun uniform, as it has the same styled sleeves and stockings.

nothing remotely sexual happens or is implied during that short scene unless you think sawing someones limbs off and burning them alive is 'sexual'. shes just sadistic and enjoys seeing the vampires shes had a grudge with her entire life dying in agony.

How Do We Relationship is good, but not as smut. A lot of the time sex winds up being a prelude to relationship drama being dredged up.

I feel like the ZenKowa volume 3 obi was trying to push ZenKowa as a new flagship title for Yuri Hime, since most of the popular series keep taking very frequent breaks.

It felt pretty insincere though, since it mentioned reprints but not copies sold. And then tried to mention social media popuarlity when it's not very talked about outside of a small group of people. Maybe it was referrring to Likes or Views, but those are easily botted.

Seems unlikely we won't get a resolution this volume, there should still be 4 more chapters which are more than enough for them to get over the bullshit, kiss and start dating, so we will have reached a natural ending point for the story, which of course I am not saying needs to end there.
>>
>>4308481
Or it's because volume 3 is seen as an important milestone for a manga. At which point it could get a premature axe if it doesn't keep boosting its sales.

Right now, ZenKowa appears to be a modest success. However, if they wanted its sales to rival KitaKawa's, it should be obvious to them by this point that it's not happening.

I just hope the editors don't try to ruin the manga and give it an awful ending to try to chase the menhera crowd.

They don't want sales to rival Kitakawa, or better said they wish they could get Kitakawa's sales but they understand the appeal of that title had also to do with the market at the time and by volume 3 Kitakawa also wasn't a big success. To me whether Zenkowa will continue or not depends if Yuri Hime believes there is anime potential or not, because it's how they have booster the sales of both Watayuri and Sasakoi a lot.

>Sales positions will fluctuate depending on the performance of other titles.
>And the comparison with other years is probably pointless due to more manga being produced and sold, aside from the usual sales fluctuation since we would be comparing different timeframes of the market, basically rank 257 today is likely to have very different sales from when Kitakawa was 257.

Well, I think it would have to overcome some hurdles. Firstly, Naoi was completely antagonist the first volume. You had people outright hate the character at first, with a seemingly large group in both English and Japanese preferring Kokoro over Naoi at the time. Some even well into volume 2.

Then you have what's going on in the story right now. Kokoro's character snapping and Kudou's introduction will both be divisive elements. I've seen some Japanese readers outright rage against Kudou for pulling the "take responsibility" crap on Naoi.

Then you have the western cancel culture. I've seen posts on MangaKatana and reddit where people disavow ZenKowa over various elements. Either Naoi's actions in volume 1, her having Kurumi strip in volume 2, or currently the schoolgirl pseudo prostitution arc that Kudou brought about. Oh yeah, plus the male teacher agreeing to date Isanuma.
>>

Wait, wasn't the first volume of this supposed to come out this month? What's the logic of waiting until a series is over to print any volumes?
>>
>>4308684
I don't think the anime audience has the same standards and the west is irrelevant, if they allow redo, the slave isekai and Onimai to stream they have no moral grounds to complain about this series.
>>
>>4308697
I think the main issue is that there's really no character to root for in this series. Everyone is extremely dislikeable for various reasons. Even Kurumi's flaw that's been increasingly highlighted is her condescending attitude. It's almost to the point of her finally blowing up at Kokoro despite Kurumi having coddled her excessively having been largely why Kokoro grew to be so delusional in the first place.

Ironically, if there is a somewhat relatable character that readers might actually like it's going to either be Akane or Azuma.

Or, y'know, it could keep going as a slice-of-life with the main couple actually dating. Would make the title a bit of an artifact maybe, but no reason it /has/ to end with them hooking up. It's got good character dynamics and they've all got stated interests and long-term plans even aside from their romantic pursuits.

Looks like they turned some of the characters into candy in the bottom right image. The ones one the table appear to be Kudou (black streak in bangs), Isanuma, Akane, and Kokoro. It's obscured by the watermark, but I'm assuming that the candy character Naoi is holding is Kurumi.

Why is it when 2 women make homoerotic poses like in this pic they're considered straight until proven otherwise, but when 2 men do it they would be considered flaming gay?

>>4308966

That's why desu. I mean I agree that art is gay as hell but it raises the argument of they're just showing off for the viewer/some third party off camera.

It's very simple anon, if two guys are touching dicks no one gives a shit of they are looking at girls, they are faggots, it doesn't matter if they are bisexual or just playing for the girls, they are faggots.

Girls playing with each other for guys, or in this case posing for then, is anything but honestly gay or yuri.

2 men doing that will be considered gay as fuck no matter where they're looking though. Why is it always assumed that people in porn want men anyway? Always irks me when 2 girls being naked together in intimate distance to each other are always assumed to desire men just because they're looking at the no-no direction.
>>
>>4309027
It's not necessarily that looking at the camera = there's a man, it's more that sort of posing de emphasizes the intimacy between the characters and suggests a possible third party. Like in the first picture you posted, why would two naked women feeling each other up NOT be looking at each other and instead staring off into the horizon? Think about how weird that posing really is for a sec.
>>
>>4309027
Yeah I agree that it's gay
People need to cope though with their make believe anime girl and they'll fap to just about anything at that point

You're supposed to look at the camera when getting your picture taken. Didn't your mother ever tell you that?
>>
>>4309029
>it's more that sort of posing de emphasizes the intimacy between the characters and suggests a possible third party
Yet it's still considered gay when men do it, but not gay when women do it. People (or just pornbrained men maybe) *always* assume that they're looking at a third person, and the person is a man. Girls do homoerotic things to each other only for male attention unless proven otherwise, and why is that? That's the original question.
>>
>>4309045
I dunno what circles you're in, but two naked dudes groping each other but staring off into the distance would suggest the same third party/observer as two women doing it does.

>>4308966
>>4309027
Because nude or scantily clad women posing for an intended male consumer has a several centuries old precedent. Therefore there is a continuous stigma that if the girls in question aren't actually focused on each other, that it's just standard heterosexual smut. Nude males as a commodity (for straight female consumption) have existed a much shorter amount of time and have been significantly supplanted by gay male consumption of that same thing. There is still a pretty hefty social stigma on women consuming non-written forms of smut. i.e. There is a much larger audience for gay porn of guys than porn of guys for women, but the audience of gay porn of girls (for lesbians) is very very small compared to porn of girls for straight men.

So the default is always going to be that a picture not clearly lesbian is just two women posing for a camera, not two women being homosexual.

This is worsened by the social differences between current acceptability in physical intimacy between the two sexes. The social acceptability of men touching each other is much, much lower, so any significant amount of touching comes across as "sorta gay", but women do not traditionally have that taboo, so they can even get away with shit like drunken making out, or feeling each other up and just write it off as a joke, or inebriated behavior.

Which is all to say that two women naked together does not read anywhere close to the same level of homoerotic as two men naked together.

I just bought the physical copy of this vietnamese oneshot. To my knowledge, the vietnamese indie comic scene is making a push recently and this is its debut attempt at yuri (or bách hợp). On the oneshot itself, it's pretty good. It's not some genre redefining piece, but it's fine as it is.
You can read it here, though it is obviously in vietnamese.

You don't know this, retard. Viewer could be female. Or it could be irrelevant. Could be some automatic camera the girls have set up. If some dude makes some porn but the girls aren't looking at the "viewer", it's suddenly yuri? Is that all it takes? Where their eyes are looking? This is so retarded as an argument of what is and isn't intended as "threesome self insert fantasies".

It doesn't matter who the viewer is you fucking mongoloid or whatever pathetic rationalization you may come up for it, it's meant to be suggestive for the viewer, it's the whole point, it's inherently not yuri, it's almost as if your small brain is unable to understand what porn is.
>>

probably the translator just sucks
>>
>>4309263
>>4309270
When the characters are offpanel but still speaking is when it tends to become a problem telling who's saying what at times. When I translate, I sometimes add in a name being said, so that it's easier to tell who's talking. One of the issues is that in Japanese there's speaker identifiers that don't translate well into English, like using "atashi" or "watashi".

Is this yuri??
>>
>>4309266
>it's inherently not yuri,
Why not?
>>
>>4309307
Because yuri is a genre meant to describe love or intimacy between women, not to describe women acting in suggestive ways to the audience. It's not hard, yuri is not a word that was meant to describe porn to begin with, we just accept that some types of porn are yuri because the yuri narrative is not superseded by other narratives, though usually the japanese do not consider lesbian porn to be yuri at all and call it rezu instead.

MahoAko is muh suggestive to audience so not yuri, apparently
And by the way, I've seen hentai images with the yuri tag in pixiv. This "rezu" shit is a retarded cope. As long as there's not an actual male self insert drawn, the images are yuri no matter where the girls look. Muh male audience shit is retarded paranoia
>yuri isn't supposed to be porn
Bold to say this in a yuri board that started (and some threads still are) as a porn imagedump (thus why it's red and porn is still allowed) before people started using it for discussion of non-porn yuri
>>4309241
Do you have any arguments?
>>
>>4309326
Looks like everyone is aware of the forbidden dark horse ship of the series.
>>
>>4309333
Again you insist on attacking stuff we know the context is full yuri, it's weak bait, it's not going to work. I was obviously refering to lesbian porn movies there, though I don't blame someone who seems to have lower than average IQ to not realize that.

Like I said, we accept some types of porn and hentai to be yuri, but the word did not originate with this purpose, we just understand lesbian sex to be a natural extension of intimacy between women, which looking at the viewer in a suggestive way is not. It's a porn/hentai trope not a yuri one. Not even gelbooru bothered using the yuri tag there and gelbooru already is very loose with the use of the tag because of how blatant non yuri it is.

whats the difference, its two girls doing sexy things together :(
>>
I always giggle when some BL artists who try yuri
have no clue how to draw girls, but will draw super sexy detailed underwear.
>>
>>4309364
No. Because those are part of a narrative where a male exists, which doesn't apply to the "looking at the camera" fanart that people bitch about here
>>4309345
Your schizo delusions about a male viewer aren't a valid argument
If you want to go that way you should hate anything pornographic or sex-focused like MahoAko or Asumi-chan. Otherwise you're just a retarded inconsistent hypocrite making nonsense exceptions
>>
>>4309367
The male is part of the narrative there. The only "narrative" in standalone images is what is on the image itself, and if there's no male, any delusions of there being a male off-screen are schizo nonsense
>>
>>4309364
Of course. /u/s rules only demand its girls. In theory it should be at least two of them, but enforcement of that has sadly not been good.
We used to collect huge folders of clips for girl on girl action in non-yuri shows and there are threads specifically for yuri in non-yuri shows.
>>4309266
This person is just a complete retard. Its yuri if there are two girls interactiong romantically/sexually full stop. Anything else is just people seething about things they don't like. The viewer or wether or not its supposed to arouse them is irrelevant. For the same reason everyone here calls many things yuri that the author themselves says isn't yuri (like Bloom into You or MariMite). Whats shown maters, not the intent. The japanese have no agreed upon definition to offer either.

The idea that something like Yuri Love Slave or Asumi is somehow not yuri because it was made in the knowledge people would schlick and fap to it is retarded. Same is true for individual images.
>>
>>4309369
>>4309370
>He can't help himself, he continues comparing his looking at the viewer porn to yuri works where we fully understand the context because his porn addicted brain is unable to understand the difference
Like I already said to you and you ignored because you have no rebuttal is that who the viewer is does not matter, girls looking suggestive at the viewer is not a yuri trope, it's a porn one, if Asumi Chan had the girls having sex while doing suggestive poses to the viewer the series would not have gone beyond a single chapter because the readers would have been outraged by it.
>>
>>4309374
>if Asumi Chan had the girls having sex while doing suggestive poses to the viewer
What the fuck do you mean? Asumi-chan has lots of panels that only show one girl in a lewd pose.
>>
>>4309375
But she isn't being suggestive to the viewer you fucking retard, is that hard to understand the difference of Asumi chan to this >>4308966 ?
>>
>>4309374
>is not a yuri trope, it's a porn one
Yuri porn is still yuri.
>if Asumi Chan had the girls having sex while doing suggestive poses to the viewer the series would not have gone beyond a single chapter because the readers would have been outraged by it
Are you seriously trying to claim no yuri manga has ever had pages where a girl is naked without another girl around? Despite the extremly common "girl touching herself after getting worked up imagining things" scenes?
>>
>>4309377
>But she isn't being suggestive to the viewer
The viewer does not exist IC in either case and in both cases they are drawn to be arousing to to the viewer. The difference you try to make here does not hold up when strictly applied.

This is one of the biggest problems I have with manga in general, some artists don't even clearly distinguish dialogue bubbles from thought bubbles.

>>
>>4309385
>>
>>4309378
This a classical case of discourse being diluted because people are incapable of formulating a reasoned argument. In this case for brainrot reasons.

The 'actual' problem with that image, /u/-wise, is that it doesn't portray the characters as being in a loving, romantic or sexual pose with eachother. So they are neither lovers nor does the image depict an AU where they are. That and only that makes it unsuitable for /u/. Not them looking at the viewer
>>
>>4309380
Stealth?
>>
>>4309379
Again, you keep comparing something we know the context is yuri with something like >>4308966 where the yuri only exists in your head because you are unable to see the girls are suggesting they are interested in the viewer and not in each other.

>>4309386

>>4309408
He fucking owns the studio and the franchise, so it's pointless to claim he didn't do it, he just profitted (or at least planned to) from it. There is nothing to deny, he said himself it wasn't yuri because if it was they would have just fucked and resolved their issues.

>There is nothing to deny, he said himself it wasn't yuri

Speaking of Watanare why do People keep yapping het harem this and that for it when its roots are obviously and clearly shoujo?

Also when is v6 7? I just went through manga LNs and have the usual burning need to continue

Unfortunately this isn't true, the extras concluded the story with a het ending for the protagonist and a subtext one for the other two. It was pretty obvious the author didn't gave a shit about yuri and just wanted to draw trap shit, which he did even, one axe after the other though.

>>
>>4309622
Its mostly from people who actually never read shoujo and think multiple love interests and "they were nice to me" are the sole domain of het romcom/harem.
Which to be fair, it is more common there. Personally I like this fusion we see in yuri of shoujo and seinen archetypes, with stuff like Watanare.
>>
>>4309641
It's a single page in the volume 5 extras (attached to chapter 19, since that is the first chapter of the volume), which makes it very easy to just skip past with all the other random "extra" pages if you're not paying attention:

A single panel that says that Tsukasa has a serious boyfriend, and that implies that the other two are together (matching bracelets--the author later confirmed on twitter or something that they are dating).

May surprise you but store clerks are just doing a job and not reading manga all day, this isn't a yuri store but a manga store and yuri is likely 5% of all their total titles, plus merch and so on, so unless the publisher is giving them indicators they probably search online to try to determine a place to fit titles. "A lot of people online are saying this title is yuri, better put it in the yuri section then" is most likely what happens, though it's also possible some stores just look at the tags it has on the online reader and see there is no yuri tag there.
>>
>>4310021

Actually even though you are shitposting you are in fact correct, "Top" and "Bottom" did came from yaoi or gay culture as they are a silly concept IRL for women, the word yuri originated in yaoi magazines, the first "yuri" stories (but not the first representation of lesbians or romantic feelings between girls) came from yaoi magazines after all, most of the authors pushing for "yuri" at the start were part of yaoi anthologies or yaoi doujin circles, one of the tropes they took from yaoi that somewhat stuck (though mostly treated as gag) were bottom and top positions but had to be adapted of course.

It's not going to go away because they are popular tropes just like the yaya, it's fiction it's meant to be entertainment to the target audiences, not realism.
>>
>>4310838
thanks for being rational, still i think its completely unnecessary and ill stick to it
but i wasnt shitposting
>>
>>4310838
Stop being a schizo enabler. Nobody cares what it came from.
>>
>>4310852
It is unnecessary in the sense it doesn't add anything to the narrative, unless the narrative is specifically about it, it's just a trope the audience and authors enjoy which is also harmless.

>>4310859
There is nothing wrong from where it came from, so you shouldn't care when someone brings it up either.
>>
>>4310861
>when someone brings it up either.
No I should because he's asking people to stop.
>>
>>4310861
I get what you mean, and for something that's kinda shit and doesn't matter too much that's fine. For something more serious and potentially a bit deeper though, why would someone want to relegate the characters in a way that removes and narrows the interpretation of the relationship? I think it's just boring. And most of the time, it's very obvious who's the more assertive of the two and vice versa.

>>4310863
>waaah I said stop talking about this thing
>>
>>4310865
Dumb schizo.
>>
>>4310865
Even serious stories build themselves around popular tropes, this isn't exclusive to yuri or even japanese works, the line you are using to delimitate this difference between casual and serious works is blurred for most readers and authors who mostly only read the same types of works to begin with, most readers just want to see authors using the tropes they like and understand and most authors just want to write something they know the readers will enjoy. In this specific case I don't even think it's that prevalent to be honest, most works have implied bottom and top roles but never actually expand on it more than the visual aspect or the contrast between personalities.
>>
its dumb as shit top/bottom isnt the same as assertive/passive
you can clearly see who is what in stories, you dont need to tell

I finally read WataYuri and now I need everyone to know how fucking pissed I am about how the confession was wrapped up and then followed by 5! fucking volumes without my sociopath gremlin and her big titty autist who loves her very much. Instead I get this other bullshit which ends in literally nothing and the bitch can't even get raped properly.
I'm so fucking mad. I can't wait for the next chapter whenever the author is back from their self-induced mental breakdown. I sure would have suffered one too if I had to write Kanoko for several years.

Honestly anime is kinda shit lately
animation - lazy, unremarkable, forgettable
music - Bland, AI generated slop, generic
plot - either too fast, slow, or can't present shit in an interesting way, they take creative liberties that detract from the overall tone and meaning

I really hope it's good, I can't remember the last time I actually watched an anime I thought was memorable. Who's going to be making it I wonder.

This series has too much plot contrivance.
>>
>>4311315
why is this specific scene contrived? she did it because she saw eri. intentionally trying to crumble the status quo
as opposed to eri just accidentally witnessing the deed, now that would be contrived.
>>
>>4311320
What are the odds that Eri would stumble upon that scene at that very specific time? She likes to cling to Fuyuki, but she somehow "forgot" about her even though she wasn't busy at all, until she conveniently remembered again, wandered around looking for Fuyuki, and saw that.

This is the second time something contrived happened in this series involving those three. The first one was the accidental double date.

The birthday scene was fine though, because there was a proper build-up.
>>

It's already out and a Naoko Yamada flim, so no. I've heard that one of the girls is a tranny as well, which is surprising to me because we know how much she dislikes yuri.

I wonder if there's some sort of explanation for it in Japanese culture. The Wonder Egg Priority director was also anti-yuri and his anime had a one of them too.

I don't know about WEP director, neither I care, but Naoko Yamada just writes dramantc friendships and never had any intention for people to perceive it as yuri, so I don't think it's far to blame her for other people's (insane) headcanons.

Traps are just getting more popular, including trap romcom protagonists, turns out this way you can actually sexualize and sell merch of male characters and funny enough the romcom/harem audience don't really care about women that much, I always speculated you can switch the whole cast of girls for traps and it wouldn't affect the series performance too much because those faggots just want to see their ego masturbated, doesn't matter who.

>>4311688
Midori definitely had a one-sided crush on Tamako.

>traps are just getting more popular
This is a female-to-male one, not the other way around.
>>
>>4311691
She literally said she didn't, people just wanted for it to be romantic because dramatized friendship is just utterly unrelatable nonsense.

No, it's not yuri because she literally said the nature of those relationships was never meant to be interpreted as romantic, what you are looking at the screen is nothing but dishonest writing to make you emotionally invested in something the author just thinks as convenient things to push the narrative forward.

No, in other interviews she expands how there were no romantic feelings involved, you are just filling the gaps of dishonest bad writing, you can't make sense why friends would act like this because you know very well friends would never, so you just assume there must be an underlying motive, when in truth there is none, the characters are just shallow slaves of the narrative.

This does seem to line-up with the idea that it's just a temporary thing that they are going through in their youths. She doesn't seem to take issue with the love part but the gay part.

She is saying they couldn't fall in love now because they were not gay for each other but she can't say if on the future they ended with men or women (or rather, she definitely could answer this but I imaginr she just didn't want to give any answer that wasn't vague and could upset someone)

I don't think the her comments are about the love, rather the "gay" label that is being applied to it.
>>
>>4311759
Considering she says it's not a "gay love story" and then in the same paragraph she says it's meant to be adolescence and how it intensifies friendship, reliance and dependency but not romantic feelings, I can only assume "gay love story" means romantic feelings as it's the only thing she didn't use to describe their feelings for each other and to note on this part of the interview she specifically mention how this applies to Tamako Market too.

>everything seems intensified, whether it be friendships, or the reliance on a certain person, or the dependency
To me, it seems like the whether it be is referring to various emotions one could have rather than the feelings those specific characters are going through. Regardless, it's not yuri friendly attitude considering she has no issues making other forms of romance not "complex".
>>
>>4311773
Well I am just saying her works are not a reflection of someone who strongly dislikes yuri, just from someone who isn't trying to direct yuri at all, it's just not her thing.

Not really, from what you described, it's just another girl they can sell to the audience with an exotic scenario just like "russian girl with silver hair", it's like complaining Shinkai does not write yuri when his whole thing is just make products for a specific type of audience. It's just not their business. Currently if you are not going specifically yuri or yuri adjacent stuff like CGDCT or Idolish works, you are only going to see yuri if it's something the author themselves is passionate about.

I wouldn't call Hibike CGDCT by any means since it's full (badly written) drama, Tamako Market would fit better, though it resembles decades old CGDCT which had male characters and male love interests.

Are you really comparing a decades old charaacter archetype with a thing that has like 2 characters on all anime released until now? (and no tomboys don't count because they still want to be girls)
>yuri adjacent stuff
In the first movie she directed we had Azusa treating Yui like a rapist when she thought she was in love with her, then we have the Tamako Market fiasco, the KumiRei shit, those dumb interviews about Liz to Aoi Tori and now that other shit. Remember that even the author of the Hibike novels respect yuri but Yamada acts like the author of Amanchu, another yuri hater suthor.
>>
>>4311799
Idol shows are meant to sell music, so it's not the same thing, it's like calling Sasakoi a idol show.

>Are you really comparing a decades old charaacter archetype with a thing that has like 2 characters on all anime released until now? (and no tomboys don't count because they still want to be girls)
From a current market perspective? Yes, most Japanese have no reference about this and will just relate it to the closest thing, whether it will work as intended is another thing we could wonder.
>In the first movie she directed we had Azusa treating Yui like a rapist when she thought she was in love with her, then we have the Tamako Market fiasco, the KumiRei shit, those dumb interviews about Liz to Aoi Tori and now that other shit.

I don't find this particulary notorious because this movie is almost 15 years old and this was the standard trope of how lesbians were portrayed in media, see Bleach for example which is far more egregious, even Railgun had Kuroko acting predatory and molesting touching Mikasa naked early on.

My point is that this is mostly incidental, she has a directing style that was very compatible with Kyoani at the time, she wasn't the only one doing stuff like this, she was only adapting Hibike and honestly there was zero reason for her to change the source content to fit a niche audience, everything else seems to be just her recreating the success of Hibike, as for interviews this is exactly what I would expect from someone who isn't writing yuri suddenly getting asked about homosexuality or LGBT, they are just trying to justify themselves while trying to not upset anyone.

But not in K-on and even then the scene isn't even "funny", after Azusa hurts Yui she realizes it was a mistake and then the scene ends with Azusa crying and Yui comforting her.

I think I already said enough times she isn't a good director, she was just doing what the others were doing, I once heard the author had a big falling down with Kyoani but I not sure if it was real.

>Tell us 3 examples outside the Hanasaku Iroha yuribait and the adaptations of the Amanchu author.
I am not talking about yuribait anon, please be more attentive, I'm talking about her directing style which is very similar to the works kyoani was doing at the time, the whole making a storm out of a cup of water thing.
>>
>>4311849
You understand what he was implying?
>>
>>4311850
>the whole making a storm out of a cup of water thing
That's just melodrama, a thing that people made since prehistoric times. Outside of that Idk what the fuck are you talking about. I'm talking about how she seems to add some yuri-ish scenes to all of her works just to end with het or denial in her interviews.
>>
>>4311852
Another author has been upset by twitter's innovations and is thinking about deleting her account.
>>
>>4311854
I am saying to you the style immediately makes any girl interaction look gay by default because friends don't do melodrama over nothing

>>4311855
No, this autist has been shitting the releases thread with Aya is going het shit and he is implying the author is worried about it.
>>
>>4311857
I won't deny that there is such autist, but that's not what this is about. Take your meds.
>>
>>4311856
But that wasn't even a thing in other Kyoani shows like Amagi Brillant Park and the Phantom-whatever anime. Outside Kyoani also we didn't have any similar thing, we're in /u/ we know about that shit.
>>
>>4311859
This is why I said it wasn't exclusive to female x female relationships, Amagi basically went from a romance novel to haremish dynamic in the anime because they played up the relationships

>>4311860
First voth of those shows were ecchi-lite anime for waifufags, second I don't remember any meaningful "gay" drama between Tamako and Midori nor anything similar in the K-on movie. Hibike was a adaptation and Liz to Aoi Tori is yuri even if she don't want to admit it.

The text is nonsensical unless you realize it's connecting subversions of lines from two previous chapters. The "murky waters" line is a reference to the start of chapter 9. While the "glass" is likely referring to the "looking-glass" or "mirror" of chapter 14.

So the full line is something like "Since I'm still standing (rather than being swept away like previously) while being engulfed by murky waters, let's meet outside of the glass (rather than stepping into/being separated by the looking-glass/mirror).

It's basically saying that Naoi and Kurumi will reunite.

Chapter 16 ZenKowa summary. The reason Kokoro climbed in bed with Kurumi last chapter was to inspect her for marks left by Naoi. Kokoro seemingly messaged Kurumi's mother behind her back again. Kokoro creeped out Akane over acting psycho over Kurumi the previous night. Kokoro basically assaults Kurumi and seems to be trying to physically force herself on her to get her to go back to the way she was.

Kurumi tries to call Naoi's cell phone for help. But Naoi stupidly left it in the love hotel living space with Kudou while Naoi was cleaning up the shower room from Kudou's bullying session. Kudou of course answers the phone and merely tells Kurumi that's Naoi's in the shower and that she could pass on a message. Kudou's trying to sew discord on purpose.The call hangs up, with Naoi walking back into the living space, not realizing what just happened. And is creeped out questioning why Kudou picked a love hotel room with a hearts theme. Meanwhile, Kurumi is obviously very shaken. Kokoro tries to convince Kurumi that Naoi is just a bad person and that, unlike Naoi, Kokoro will only have eyes for her. Cliffhanger ending of how Kurumi will respond.

Honestly, Kurumi going along with Kokoro again is redundant, so even if Kurumi's pissed at Naoi over this, she'll likely reject Kokoro too since Kokoro's acting nuts and just attacked her.

>>4311980
I don't think Kudou was trying to necessarily piss Kurumi off on purpose, otherwise why would she be so pissed off and confused when Kurumi hung up on her. Naoi never told Kudou that her relationship with Kurumi was romantic, so it was likely just Kudou playing up her outgoing persona. It's up for debate if she'll eventually tell Naoi that Kurumi called.

>>
>>4311993
I'd prefer it if she went yandere.

>>4312012
She kind of did. She's holding Kurumi down and trying to gaslight Kurumi ino thinking she's Kurumi's only option.
>>
Volume 3 bonuses were something. They added 2 additional black and white pages. Kurumi and Naoi are at a grocery store together and Naoi held Kurumi's hand. Kurumi gets flustered and questions why Naoi did it, to which Naoi replied that it was just a habit. It's shown via a flashback that Naoi used to hold her little sister's hand when they went shopping.

Also, the color pages are Kurumi having a dream that she's a daycare worker. Naoi's a child drawing on the walls, while Kurumi is held up by her needy child mother and needy child Kokoro. Akane's in the shot looking happy playing with a ball, being independent. Isanuma is a lazy coworker wanting to flirt with the teacher, while she drags along child Mine and Azuma. Kurumi finally breaks free to tend to Naoi, but then adult Kudou shows up and starts trying to kiss child Naoi while child Naoi is distressed. Kurumi wants to stop it, but before she can act, she wakes up from her nightmare.

I don't think she would've asked for the date with Kurumi if that was the case. Naoi acts like she hates her mother and sister, but in truth, she has fond memories and still loves them.

>>4312038
Speaking of volume 3, the teacher's name changed back to Horie when the Yuri Hime version had his name as "Hotta" in chapters 11 and 12. This is basically Kuwabara admitting that the teacher's name from chapter 1 was forgotten 2 volumes later, so had to correct volume 3 to match.

Honestly, Kurumi's likely going to assume it's a misunderstanding. Kudou acknowledged Kurumi as "Yoshizawa-san" and introduced herself as "Kudou". Meaning that Naoi had told her about Kurumi previously. And just taking a shower doesn't mean anything happened between the two. Kurumi might assume that Naoi was just staying at a friend's house to avoid her father. At the very least, I think Kurumi will give Naoi the benefit of the doubt and demand an explanation of what she was up to.

Kurumi'll obviously be pissed off by the truth, but it's better than what Kokoro's assuming, which is that Naoi's just a player.

The chapter only has 21 story pages, so it looks like another back-loaded volume. Before now, the first chapter of the volume was the longest each time and had double this amount of pages.

I've seen even Japanese readers start to compare ZenKowa to Citrus due to how stupid the drama is becoming. It's like Naoi's I.Q. dropped like a brick when Kudou showed up just so the drama can happen.

I really don't see how Kokoro's coming back from the latest chapter. She really is just crazy. The phone call would've likely been useless anyway, since Naoi's too far away to help. So really, Kurumi will probably be forced to fight back unless someone conveniently comes to the house for some reason. Maybe Naoi's line about how anything can be a deadly weapon will come to Kurumi's mind and Kokoro actually dies.

I don't think the point of the series was to fix everyone's problem, just saving colin so they could have someone to grow together with and help each other, realistically the other girls will never solve their family problems, they are going to grow up and eventually move away and that will be it.

I'll admit, season 1 isn't that great. Watched it back in the day when it first came out when I had nothing else to watch when it came to yuri shows, but the music does get better and the characters grow on you throughout the seasons. And the budget increase becomes very noticeable as well. Plus season 2 adds more girls to the cast which creates more shipping moments. It's a ridiculous concept, but it's fun to watch if you turn your brain off for most of the science shenanigans they try to explain.

I remember when I first heard about this anime I thought 'The Order' was used in the sense of 'The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn' and found the title very mysterious and abstract. It was only years later that I saw it was 'chūmon' and it made so much more sense
In fairness it's kind of weird English, I would expect "Did You Order a Rabbit?"
