They had me at "tampons".
>>4313761>>4312727Can't believe they buffed the sex instead of nerfing it.
>>4313776smut is a major selling point of the series, ofc they are not going to betray the readership
sendai is way too rape-y
>>4312098>Releases for OctoberOnly ShuuKura this month, but I still have September's volumes to read.
TCR4 will be the final volume of Twinstar Cyclone Runaway, the author just finished the first draft.
>>4314688>manga starts>novel ends
Read the 14th volume of Tabitabi. Two chapters stand out from the yuri side of things:Chapter 3:>But here, in this city, Elaina had made just one friend—someone she liked so much that she went out to dinner with her almost every night.>“Ah, I love you,” said the other girl. “Keep stroking my hair; it’s so nice. Want to get married?”>The friend in question was sitting across from Elaina at a slightly pricey restaurant, her eyes half-lidded. “You’re so cute,” she continued. “Really cute. I could just eat you up.” On second thought, perhaps she was gazing at Elaina like a beast looks at its prey.>Elaina seemed unconcerned.This one had a sweet ending with Elaina stroking the other girl's hair and will only stop if Sena gives her money.Chapter 7:>“Let’s go, Elaina.” She turned around and flashed me a bold smile.>My goodness. We may both be women, but I must say she looked quite dashing just now.Maybe Elaina has a soft spot for tomboys? Come to think of it, Saya/Amnesia are pretty boyish as well.
Can anyone tell me the exact volume and chapter in Adashima where Adachi left home and her mom?
>>4314688>the final volumeI'll need the source on that, don't frighten me like this... All I can see that has any resemblance to the word "final" is the tweet where Ogawa says 完成度を上げていく(~= I'll be polishing it up, in reference to the finished draft).
>>4316472
>>4316545Sisterly Adashima…
>>4316550>Hmn... should I get Adachi part too?Why is she like this?
>>4316550Mugi no!
>>4316545Miyagi is stacked
>>4316480Damn I wish there's more...
>>4316244Anyone?
>>4316599vol10, p17, mom pov volSS, p203
>>4316603Thank you!
>>4316480Damn.Double damn, really.
>>4317598>MilkYou just know
>>4317598when do they have sex?
>>4317677the end of v5
>>4317683was it awkward?
>>4315798I finished reading it today. Karoline was really cool, and I loved how she said that she would wake up if Elaina kissed her. Elaina really needs to start taking advantage of girls who throw themselves at her feet like that.
Doesn't anybody else miss a simple story where two girls meet, fall in love and start dating?I feel like recent series all have some crazy/absurd gimmick to draw attention.Buying your classmate, twotiming the school's idols, hating your childhood friend, substituting the girl you love with her little sister...I've finished Suki na ko no imouto and it could simply be the story of Yuika and Mimi. Nagisa barely did anything until the very end of the volume which is very, very forced. At the beginning MC says that even if they're sisters they're different but in the end all it takes is a pair of contact lens and a tie of a different colour? Turning down the girl you love because you have to study is also incredibly forced and so is the incest kiss at the end though there won't be anyone against it (very based).Not really a complaint since as long as it's yuri anything goes and more yuri we have the better it is, but I crave more simple stories like AdaShima. We've got a lot of them in manga but not in LN, LN always go for crazy settings.
>>4319594It would just be the same story every time then
>>4319594>simple story where two girls meet, fall in love and start dating?Isn't classmate exactly that? It's just in slooow motion.
>>4315798>Maybe Elaina has a soft spot for tomboysJougi likes for his leads to have their own tomboy
>>4319594>Doesn't anybody else miss a simple story where two girls meet, fall in love and start dating?Not really since I've already read so many of those for the last 25 years. I somewhat get what you mean, but most of the time those gimmicks exist to skip to the "good" part and create a dramatic arc. They're not all hits, naturally but I prefer this variety we have right now.
>>4319596It would depend on the writing skill of the author.OsaKano, Koi yori aoku, Shy... all the same but all different and all good and gay.>>4319625ShuuKura is great but the situation that led to their relationship will always be absurd and unrealistic af.>>4319735>I prefer this varietyI'm not saying they shouldn't exist, having normal romance alongside those exaggerated romcom would bring even more variety.
>>4320112>having normal romance alongside those exaggerated romcom would bring even more variety.But they still exist?
>>4319728I started reading the manga and I love how boyish the artist made Saya, it's great. Also rereading the part where Fran trains Elaina has such a bigger emotional impact knowing their relationship from the novels.
>>4320123List them.
What are some older yuri LNs no one talks about that are worth reading? Or some with secret yuri? I'm on the hunt, I need something good to read!
I read Gokumon Nadeshiko 3, still no kisses if you were wondering. She does have to put Amane as her 'treasure' in a game though.
>>4321452Try みすてぃっく・あい, nobody talks about it but it's pretty unique.

>>4322896Beautiful art
https://x.com/sasanerineri/status/1853029445751222468Is this actually yuri?
>>4322974There are literally two girls kissing in the tweet, anon.
>>4323014It’s a fake kiss to bait anon into buying the LN, they still have a molecule of air left before they actually kiss
>>4323014You can never be sure, could be just to activate the magic that's required for them to survive. Like a CPR, you wouldn't call that yuri.
>wait months for a new volume>read it all immediately in one go>now have to wait months again for the next oneI need it now. It's so fucking good.But I wanted to see them calling each other by name during the sex. Miyagi cleaning Sendai's finger before of running away was adorable though.
>>4323019>ラノベ作者で主に百合が好きThe author likes yuri, so I think it's safe. At the very least it probably won't be bait, don't take my words for it tho.
>>4323200so grumpy

>>4322418>>4322423LNs don't get axed in the same sense manga does, so it's possible for Kiki to eventually return to it like others have done.
>>4324165>like othersLike Usa Naraharu.
>>4324165Yeah, for instance Volume 12 of Haruhi came out like 9 years after Volume 11.But I sort of always figured that was an exception rather than the rule.
>>4312098I need this thread but for manga, my lizard brain can't comprehend paragraph
>>4324165Either way it's best to forget about it, I mean it's been years people, time to move on, there are so many other interesting LN/WN out there to explore with yuri at their cores.
>>4324154yoooo, I hope this LN gets translated into english in the future.
I saw some people talking about the Eternal Filena OVA today and it turns out someone started translating the novels last month. I'm only familiar with the game so it'd be interesting to finally compare them. https://www.novelupdates.com/series/eternal-filena/

>>4324475>just another isekai/fantasy boring setting>suddenly goes full ShuuKura>"haha, just kidding, let's be TOMODACHI™"What a disappointing roller coaster.I'm still waiting for the voice drama of the new novel of Hikikomari's author to see how it is, it isn't even on bilibili.https://twitter.com/MF_bunkoJ/status/1801547629509415092

>>4324743So it's confirmed after all. Well, it had a good run, but I really wished that it would reach the point where it could get at least a shoddy anime adaptation.
>>4324955It’s gonna be a super high quality 3d space action anime #believe
>>4324955It got a manga adaptation at least
>>4325009Will it go on after the second volume? I wish it will be a full adaption since the story is already over but it depends on the sales of the first volume. I haven't heard anything about a reprint so I'm afraid the axe is awaiting.
>>4325106 (me)Oh, I've seen only now that the second volume is already scheduled for December, so it'll be at least three volumes and I don't know if only one more volume is enough to cover the whole first volume of the novel so maybe it'll be at least 4 volumes like Wasureenu majo.
Stumbled upon a FutayoxMasazumi fanart in pixiv. Did these two ever become a couple in the novel?
>>4325292I think they got married or something?But then again marriage in the universe means the same as getting married to your tabletop bro, lmao
>>4325292They married and had a kid, she makes a small cameo in Horizon movie
>>4325297I can't find this movie. And the novel too is still on volume 9, I'll hibernate again I guess.
Shokei Shoujo will end March 2025 and will release the last two volumes at the same time.
>>4325479How many chances it will end with a proper yuri end with the two leads dating?
Any summary for volume 12?
This is now on the top of my list.
>>4325488Adachi still act like a retard kid and Shimamura still act like her mom instead of her lover.
>>4325528>エッジ
>>4326705MAAAAAAADOKA
>>4326705Looks like Miyagi and two Shimamuras
>>4326705Sendai-san's dream came true and Miyagi began to eat well.
I avoided Iruma's teacher-student bishit like the plague and read Yukiko's teacher-student one (放課後の教室に、恋はつもる。) instead but I ended up getting the same shit.One third of the volume is the teacher being miserably in love with her old straight teacher, even after she got married and got pregnant.The second third is about how the student had one hundred boyfriends (and her hetslut mother had one thousand men) but don't worry because she never liked them, because people can normally date, flirt, touch, being touched and kiss people they're not attracted to, that's perfectly normal.And then the last part of the volume is the student being blackmailed by one of her ex-boyfriends into dating again or he will expose the teacher gave her a ride on her car. And a few pages from the end you have the student risking to be raped by him.Then it ends like it started, because the whole story was a flashback, with the two of them that don't have any kind of relationship other than being teacher and student. Because the student says she's in love with the teacher after she saved her from being raped, but the teacher won't consider her. She acts like a proper teacher... except the moments when she goes full retard and brings a student to her home.Also the student that goes from being annoyed by her ex-boyfriend who keeps insisting to get back together and that he will make her fall in love with him despite he's been rejected everytime, to doing the exact same thing herself with the teacher, like using the very same words.What a bad writing and what a bad story. I would have appreciated a warning, at least Iruma is honest since he tells you already from the title.
>>4328205Meanwhile the guy in Iruma sama work is so irrelevant some people theorize he isn't real.
>>4328205So basically I should make sure to not buy this. Thanks.
>>4328205Sounds like you should be reading >Iruma's teacher-student bishitinstead lol
https://x.com/honyasannohito/status/1857013633798033651Watanare editor counting down to something.Then I saw this.https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/4086315688I guess they could still announce anime at the same time.
Iruma's teacher-student kino v2 releases on January 2025
>>4328623renako christmas gift
>>4328623the website started being worked on recentlywww.watanare-anime.com
>>4328205This really reads like garbage but it's your own fault for not reading the better student-teacher story.
https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/4041156254/Thoughts on this?Author is Uesu Tetsuto (Testament of Sister New Devil)Illustrator is Chigusa Minori (Convenient Semi-Friend)I assume that just because Chigusa is involved with it doesn't guarantee it's yuri
>>4328764The summary seems to indicate it's a yuri romance, the author a long time ago did do a yurish novel but I would rather wait for reviews to be sure.
>それにしても高校生の頃のタカソラちゃんを知っているので、どうしてこんな女たらしの軽薄キャラになってしまったんだろう?と思ってしまうのは私だけでしょうか。ある意味一途ですが、これからもやらかしキャラとして登場するであろうタカソラちゃんを温かい目で見守りたいです。I may actually read it if the story is Takasora getting the JK and the bislut remaining unhappy alone. I mean, unhappy with the man she decided to marry. But seeing their height I'm afraid she will go for the bislut instead.Seriously though, don't get Takasora involved with this shit, poor girl suffered enough already.
>suicide>touching your oshi's brain with your bare hands>man-eating spiders>cannibalism>space travel>creating new universesWell. Last and First Idol was a strange trip. Weird that it started off as a NicoMaki fic. I assume that Maori licked Mika's brain before dunking it in the liquid nitrogen and that was the part that got damaged.
>>4329225Why posting this without a link?They better include it in the volume release.
In just 3 days.
can anybody speak for this? Worth the time?
>>4328919She will never find happiness if she keeps trying to get in the way of couples that are already established, but I guess that this is exactly how she is supposed to be like. No chances that she’ll get anywhere, she’s the designated queen of Yayas.
>>4329488>gets all the girls she wants>can live doing a ridiculous job like the one she's doingShe's fine. Definitely better than someone who has to deal with a bislut married to a man.
>>4329494They can do the body burying part together.
https://x.com/mikazukihiz/status/1857755403922370688Confirmed yuri in the 'strict sense' (love and sex) by author.
>>4330103More author should do this.
>>4330103More authors/publisers should do this.Though I don't know what 狭義の百合 is supposed to mean. And they should reveal the presence of men and/or their involvement with the yuri couple.
>>4330113It fulfills all the necessary and sufficient conditions for yuri to occur. The proof is left as an exercise to the reader.
>>4330113>Though I don't know what 狭義の百合basically GL

This month there is also the first volume of the manga, I'll read that to finally see how yuri it is.>勇者の旅の裏側でI'm still not sure about this one. The voice audio seems to imply something is going on but it may also simply treat it as a joke. The fact they're going to save the hero doesn't sound very promising either.>ピーチとチョコレート>友情>male childhood friendNo, thanks.>少女が望まぬ英雄譚I don't remember why I'm not buying this, was it because there's het?>箱庭クロニクルI understood absolutely nothing from the description.
>>4329377Is this good?
>>43301423000 copies for a yuri LN in 3 days sounds good to me. Taking two spots in top 10 up to the 4th place sounds very good. Though it depends on the week. There are weeks where you need at least 4000/5000 copies just to take the 10th place, this was a calm week so they could rank with only 3000 copies. In the past both AdaShima and Urasekai ranked with 4000/4500 copies too. It depends also on the day they are released. This is the rank for the week from the 4th to the 10th of November and AdaShima was released on the 8th, if it was released on the 4th it would have ranked higher with more copies.
>>4330140>勇者の旅の裏側で> The voice audio seems to imply something is going on but it may also simply treat it as a joke.There's a kiss at the end and they definitely like each other. End of vol.1 leads into a continuation so there's room for development. There's also a second voice drama that covers the chapter with the kiss in a QR code on the obi with a physical copy.> The fact they're going to save the hero doesn't sound very promising either.The hero is female so nothing to worry about. One member of the hero's party is male but there's not enough focus on them to imply anything and I doubt they'll get in the way of the main pair's relationship.
>>4330151>There's also a second voice drama that covers the chapter with the kiss in a QR code on the obi with a physical copy.Can anyone please kindly yt-dlp that.
>>4330151Sold.>QR codeWhat if I don't have a QR code reader?
>>4330156You don't have a phone?
>>4330177Sure, a 17 years old Nokia.
>>4330142Enough to make Iruma backtrack on his decision to finish the series at vol 12.
https://x.com/mikazukihiz/status/1858468157897515124Hate it when this happens
>>4330640I assume they might be compiled in a book years from now (assuming it's successful) like AdaShima?

>>4331679Wait for the release of the volume ShuuKura SS. And I'm with you.
Never thought I would read a book where a girl launches a biologically-produced nuclear bomb out of her anus, but I guess the yuri genre is full of surprises. It was nice that Youko's reward for getting killed and reincarnating umpteenth times was to get a JK girlfriend, seems like a good exchange to me. It was sweet to see Dyaus and Ganapati get together, too.
