>>4425701>Did You Think My Yuri Was Just for Show?I did, yes.
https://x.com/honyasannohito/status/1929494291724071187New novel from Mikami, seems like it's a doujin work.
So did anyone read Omaegoto 5?
>>4428206>New novelIt's a comicalization.The novel is one of the old Teren's doujinshi one-shots that were never published.https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B07MCLNMCYI wonder why they're making a manga out of it only now and why they won't publish the novel itself, together with the reincarnation in a plant/cat ones.
>>4428216 Manga is more profitable, if they think manga is viable then they would rather do it instead.
They should rename "yuri" as "terenmikami" at this point, because every work you come across these days has that hack's name on it
Speaking of Mikami Teren, is this yuri?
>>4428258Seethe and cope
So what do you make of Sorawo's refusal to call her relationship with Toriko romantic? Is she too autistic to admit she's in a pretty normal relationship (extradimensional adventures aside) with her girlfriend or is she actually getting at something?
>>4428647If you read volume 8 it already explained everything.
>>4428665I read it, but I just don't see how their relationship is any different from an intense and dedicated romantic relationship in practice.
>>4428681They're accomplices.
>>4428647She has a strain of 中二病 that people can get even in university. But she does kind of have a point. How many couples accidentally fuse together when they have sex?
>>4428718It's a common lesbian thing
>>4428681It isn't any different, that's why Sorawo is unsatisfied with it, because she wants it to be something more than a normal romantic relationship like other people have.It's nothing new in yuri. The love in yuri is much more real, stronger and deeper than the superficial "love" you see in het series, however there isn't a term for "more than love" but calling it just "love" puts it on the same level and that's degrading. It's the same reason why Yukiko refuses to call love what there is between Sakurako and Kasumi in Futaribeya.
>>4428719What's the picrel's title again? I never finished it.
>>4428783Shimeji Simulation
>>4428766Personally I am just tired of it, I think all of this sounds better in the head of the author than in how he is actually conveying it, Sorawo just sounds pretentious and making her constantly frustrated every time someone mentions anything about it is making her a very unlikable character with control issues.>Sorawo suffered some abused as a child and has issues intimacyLike Toriko thought is far more relatable than>She is an angry autist
>>4428719oh they actually have sex in this manga
>>4428802Sorawo being a pretentious angry autist is funny and well established. I just wonder if I should feel bad for taking the same approach to her view of their relationship. I don't think Toriko takes it very seriously.
>>4428802I haven't read volume 10 yet, but the part in 9 where Kozakura describes the legal process of adopting Kasumi makes me think that Sorawo will eventually have to confront some of the practicalities of having a unique concept for their relationships, if she wants to stay connected to the regular world.
>>4428802I always understood it as revulsion Sorawo feels towards the love she saw her dad and grandma have towards her mom. It looked good when she was alive but once she died they threw out her altar to please some stupid cult. I'd imagine it's like seeing your dad piss on your mom's grave. So she feels that love is fake and silly. She feels she's superior for figuring it out too. It's a questionable trait of personality but then again everything about her is questionable. It takes someone messed up to enjoy the type of content she does.
>>4428954>It takes someone messed up to enjoy the type of content she does.Minecraft videos?
>>4428961Posts on anonymous BBS?
>>4428719>Still not cancelled I stepped away from yuri for a long time, interesting to see.
>>4428802>Sorawo suffered some abused as a child and has issues intimacy>She is an angry autistBoth of these points are correct though
>>4425704>AdaShimaJust finished reading volume 5. It was a bit anticlimatic considering what Adachi did. I would've liked to read a Shimamura pov during and after the thing. I'll be reading volume 6 after work. What a ride
>>4429911She will talk about it don't worry.
What a pain.
>>4429961>>4429964I just went and read the thing in one go. I am both satisfied and worried at the same time because I see a lot of myself in Adachi. Not to say Shimamura's own weirdness and her way to put walls between her and other people wasn't relatable. Their ineptitude at managing relationships with others is painfully relatable and their introspection even more as it helped putting into words things I just accepted at face value about myself
>>4430551I'm halfway through this and am enjoying it. Its pretty close to otherside picnic genre-wise.
Inori's world building is amazing
>>4431818Humberta Humberta
>>4425701How good is 'There's no Freaking Way I'llb e Your Lover...unless?'. Is the LN more raunchy than the manga
>>4431869I've read through 3 volumes of LN and its not all that raunchy. Don't know about later volumes or the manga.
>>4432123From what I hear it practically changes your perspective on Renako by showing how self deprecating she actually is and goes some way to explaining why she puts up with the insane affections of Mai
>>4431818Her world build in ILTV really fell apart but the later volumes in my opinion, and Rei eventually reduced to saying every other sentence how 'X an Y remind me of the same things I had in my past life' like we fucking get it already
>>4431818Is this from her newest book?
>>4432146She practically worships her group of friends in her thoughts (as a friend (with sexual attraction)).
>>4432146You should be able to get that easily from manga too
>>4432583But she's not gay BTW. She still wants to be normal and have a normal high school life.
>>4430369I shouldn't have read the epilogue of volume 10. It basically said that the true ending of the story happened in volume 8. I will keep reading till volume 12 of course but still it kinda ruined it me. I realized something was going on when the story kept switching focus and going back and forth in time but I persevered nonetheless. I actually detest endings. Maybe irrationally since all the good things eventually come to an end but it's just how I feel. On a sidenote I was hoping for a proper kiss to happen eventually but I feel like the author is just going to keep torturing me to the bitter end. Everything considered I loved reading it. It's been a long time since I last felt envious of fictional characters
>>4432681The real ending is when Shimamura dies on the bridge.
>>4432152If the hero one hasn't come out yet then yeah, it's from Homunculus Tears
>>4432686I know this is bullshit but I am still going out of my way to read volume 12 and any other spinoffs just in case
Damn, Suki na ko no imouto 2 hit hard.Shitty parents ruining their children's life.The good thing is I don't see how it will end. It's out of question for the sisters to share the MC, and they have a bad relationship so it won't be a full triangle either (but thanks for the incest kiss).So one of them will have to lose and suffer in the end and I don't know who will be and how the author will handle it and I'm not ready to see either of them getting such a bad end.
https://twitter.com/TsuzuriYuri/status/1928828817633910985The only new series this month is the one from Hikikomari's author. On Amazon you can see an illustration with tentacles assaulting the girls so I'd say it can stay there. It reminded me how bad the first volume of Hikikomari was.
>>4430551I finished reading this now and I recommend it for anyone that wants some spooky yuri to read. The story gets more serious than the cover and description let on. The relationship doesn't go that far yet, but its obvious where it is going and the author calls it yuri in the afterword. Also the second volume has already been confirmed.I can't wait for fanart that faithfully avoids spoilers.
>>4434662Why does the good stuff never get an official translation?
>>4434666Otherside Picnic has an official translation and it's the best thing ever.
>>4434666Its the author's very first published work and it only released a few weeks ago. Maybe it will get one eventually if it gains enough interest I hope it does and gets a manga adaption because I want to see how they pull it off. Anyway, if you are interested in reading LN in Japanese so you can read whatever you want, you can pretty much just learn as you read and its a lot of fun. This one might be a little hard to start with though.
>>4434686Can you recommend yuri LNs that would be good to start with? I know basic Japanese.
Maiden's Unwanted Heroic Epic Vol. 3 is coming https://x.com/hihumi_shigoro/status/1934920899716894921
That toothbrushing scene in Did You Think My Yuri Was Just for Show? was intense. Every girl should brush her beloved's teeth at least once.
>>4434706I took another look through what I've read and they are all closer to each other than I remembered. So its probably best to just start with something that you find interesting and power through it. Or start with manga like Yuru Yuri or something first, which should be easier to read, but automated dictionaries might not work.
https://twitter.com/saint_teacher/status/1935992974334476505Karasu Piero starting a new project Hope he follows through with this one.Tenten is ongoing, Saint Teacher just started, and Katena hasn’t gotten a new volume since 2022Also there’s that direct-to-manga WN adaptation.

>>4436070They
>>4436079so they releasing two SS for july and august and then volume 8. we should get them translated as well eventually I hope. Though vol.7 seems to be delayed to december.
>SS>短編What's the difference?Where do you put these extra volumes on your shelf anyway? Like for AdaShima's ones. After the numbered volumes or do you follow the order they are published and put them between the numbered volumes?
>28 (twenty-eight) volumes of thisIs it trying to beat Marimite or something?
https://twitter.com/TsuzuriYuri/status/1936675092286631990Girl gets isekai'd as a fox goddess and in order to return home she has to gather the faith of the people. An isekai where the goal is to actually return to the real world? Okay, that's a new one to me.
>>4437411>An isekai where the goal is to actually return to the real worldI suppose you haven't read Shokei Shoujo.
>>4437411>An isekai where the goal is to actually return to the real worldThat's what the first isekais were usually about
>>4437580when did isekais became about escapism from your own world?
>>4437411what part of this is yuri?
>>4437589When it basically became a handicap for lazy worldbuilding.
>>4437589when they premiered Narnia
>>4437411Until she goes...>why should I go back and became some nobody when I'm I have a fox wife here??
>>4434706My go-to rec is 聖クロス女学院物語. It's a kids book so it's much easier to read than your average LN, and although it starts off slow and is axed after just three volumes (with the fourth half-finished on the author's blog), by the 2-3rd volume it has enough gay tension everywhere. Essentially it's about a mystery-solving club in a Marimite-like school, but the protagonists spend more time being silly and admiring their upperclassmen than actually solving mysteries, at least until things start getting weird.Really a shame that it never continued, the fourth volume with the school play was getting intense.
>>4437589When it started being aimed at men
>>4437411Just realized this came out last year and I guess was a repost by Tsuzuri. Happens a lot. By the same author that did Novice Alchemist.
>>4437698Thanks!
>>4437831Hopefully protagonist also gets married to a girl here
>>4437411I just started reading this.>>4437590The story focuses on the two girls on the cover trying to promote a shinto fox god in another world. So far it has yuri subtext such as the girl on the left making a marriage-like promise to the girl on the right. I'm guessing it would need some sequels to get to a kiss or something, but I'm also not that far into it to know.

https://twitter.com/hachigatumori/status/1937842888844689806I haven't read the first volume yet and didn't buy the second one, how is it?
>Grisaia: Phantom Trigger has a yuri novelI'm intrigued by this. What an interesting route to take from the hetshit harem original novels.
>>4439688Does it have a separate cast of characters and storyline with only cameos from the original? (i.e. Hidan no Aria AA) if it’s more like the Railgun or Danmachi novels I wouldn’t get my hopes up
I just binged the translated chapters of Speedrun manual of Miss Witch the last few days, its probably the best non romance focused chinese yuri I've read at least in terms of mindless fun, about the yuri Ciel gets a girlfriend by like chapter 130, with a pretty nice build up and they occasionally have sex
>>4439879I didn't know there were chinese WNs that weren't wuxia. Is there anymore non wuxia WNs?
>>4439927Of course, Wuxia is not even the most popular genre in the first place.
>>4439934Any recs?
>>4439879Guess I’ll be adding that to my list thenAlso what >>4439974 said, I’ve barely gone through CN yuri (only read The Dragon and some other series recommended on these threads)
>>4436197Release order
Is this really happening?
>>4440210I dearly hope they keep the casting from the PVs.

I've been reading the Strawberry Panic LNs despite having never watched the anime and they're racier than I expected. Like, in the span of two chapters, Chikaru kisses a loli's butt and Yaya undresses and molests Hikari in the school pool. Are the manga and anime this racy, or was the LN author left unsupervised?
https://twitter.com/toshizone23/status/1939975503751852311Character reveal for Toshizo's new yuri LN
>>4441559>getting a voiced PV so soonWhat's going on?I'm getting ShuuKura vibes, is it as good?>第一巻The volume is not numbered anywhere, how confusing. If you already know you're going to serialize it then number it from the beginning.>>4441596Strawberry Panic is the best anime ever made but the LN is quite bad.>>4441611What a generic promo art. It looks like two haremettes looking at the self-insert.
>>4441630>What a generic promo art.the doggo novel had a generic promo art too
So in the end who's her yuri?The LN industry is killing storytelling. They don't know if they'll ever get a second volume so they either reveal and resolve everything in the first volume leaving no plot open for future volumes or they won't resolve anything but then don't get any other volume so the story remains incomplete. Axed manga at least have a second volume to end the story.I hope in some kind of twist like the MC wrote the letter herself (but it doesn't seem to be the case) so she could have dates with all the three girls and not just revealing that it's one of the three.Sakuhi is a great character, she deserved to be more developed but boring stuff like exams and elections stole away too much time.
>>4442465I read on the author’s Twitter they are already working on Vol 2
>>4439879Avena is a pretty neat love interest, albeit I'm very partial to detective prince archetypes. I like that despite being a munchkin novel, she doesn't get sidelined as Ciel grows stronger as she has many support attributes such as information brokering, providing therapy, and being the protagonist's sugar mama. The use of the timeloop aspect in the romantic developments was quite cute as well. The stoic Ciel growing more affectionate of Avena from fucking around and finding out how much psychotic bullshit she would be willing to put up with for her via the loops was quite charming.I was also interested in the relationship between Amy and the dopey plague doctor who's the little sister of the blind nun. That they became roommates and pseudo drug dealers for Ciel during the Capital arc due to their pathway synergy seemed like a good setup to me.The best version of Ciel is Instigator Ciel.
>>4442689Is this baseball Adashima?
>>4442666I was surprised that Amy wasnt actually the love interest but I like how much Avena spills her spaghetti while trying to girlboss Ciel, I have a feeling instigator might be the most popular version too due to how unhinged her personality is from base.
Another anon here, I'm still reading Speedrun Manual of Miss Witch, and it's really very good so far. The world-building and power systems is awesome.I thought Yulis was the love interest. I was surprised when it started pointing toward Avena.
>>4441596The LNs and manga were created and written by Sakurako Kimino (the same woman who created Love Love! btw).The anime is basically entirely different except has (most of) the same characters with (mostly) the same personalities. Chikaru especially for the shaft there in the anime imo.You should both read the LNs and watch the anime (the manga never got past the first bit of the LNs).The anime does sometimes go a little harder than you might expect, but no, a scene like the one where Miyuki drags a random girl into the baths with her and Shizuma just so the rando can get molested by Shizuma instead of herself does not feature in the anime.Both the LNs and anime are delightfully absurd in their own ways.
>>4436079>>4436197
>>4442777Thanks, I'll definitely check out the anime then. I figured the anime came first and then the LNs were written to cash in on the hype, but I just found out that it the short stories came first. Wild stuff.
>>4442782When did Renako get a piercing?
https://twitter.com/kiki_lily17/status/1941427342993392027Omae Gotoki Volume 6 coming out in August Kind of wild there's so little delay after waiting so long.
Help, how is that novel when a girl steal her sister girlfriend?The character look token AdaShima
>>4443176I’m so happy it’s backIf his announcement wasn’t about it coming back I’d have given up and bought the WN
>>4443176I think kiki made a post a few months ago saying volume 5 had been completed for years before it's release and that 6 was also pretty much done at the time.
I read a horror novel today where a journalist investigates a series of houses that seemed to have been built with the express purpose of enabling the occupants to easily murder people and dispose of the bodies and it made me think that Sorawo would really like this book.

>>4447020More soine yuri is always welcome.
I enjoyed the latest Nadeshiko, it has good relationship progression
Iori Miyazawa's next book ウは宇宙ヤバイのウ2 releases tomorrow. The first book('s 2023 re-release) is goofy yuri sci-fi. Originally he couldn't get it published until he gave it a male protagonist, but after it went out of print based Miyazawa seized the opportunity to rewrite it as yuri before republishing it. Now the new version has a manga adaptation and this new sequel releasing.
>>4447268>NadeshikoGokumon Nadeshiko?
>>4447339>Miyazawa seized the opportunity to rewrite it as yuri before republishing itHoly based
>>4447339We already talked about that genderbender-multiverse bullshit.I'm waiting for the second volume of Tokitoki channel that, unlike that shit, is yuri.
Iori Miyazawa could write a restaurant menu and I'd still read it.
>>4447426kys
>>4447626>GBfag gets upset because people reads yuri
>>4447413Yeah
>>4447426Its not genderbending. Kukuri has no memories from Ku, and nobody can remember Ku's sex or even species.
>>4447812Is there a good translation somewhere? I saw one but it was locked behind a paywall the site seemed kinda sketchy
>>4447935No idea, sorry
>>4447268Would you elaborate on that?I'm buying all the volumes but so far I've read only the first volume of the manga and it didn't tell me anything.
>>4448244Just a lot of thinking about the other. The whole story of the fourth volume is about a couple who heavily parallel Amana and Nadeshiko's relationship. Nadeshiko makes some friends her age and Amana tries to push her towards them, realizing she's getting too attached. Just stuff like that. It's not romantic yet though.
>>4448296>not romantic yet>after four volumesWhy have I even started buying it?
>text says that one girl is a head taller than the other>perfect height for one to have to bend over a bit to kiss the other girl>illustration shows them with a 2cm height differenceWhy does this always happen?
>>4448413Yeah Adashima sucks with this.
>The Hero-Killing Bride Vol 3>biting each other gets them horny>afterword says they'd probably start fucking if there's another volumeThe worldbuilding in this series felt pretty sparse, but the relationship Alicia and Cion have built up is really sweet. It feels like the author was being held back by force from making them 100% gay for each other instead of just 95%.
>>4449529https://twitter.com/_Aoikou/status/1946816052052349147Well, the author is talking about writing the next volume and that it’s going to be “hot and steamy.” Unless it’s a different story. None of the volumes have high yuri level ratings on Yuribungeibu. Didn’t know they might go that direction
https://twitter.com/TsuzuriYuri/status/1939700452440092798>四維街一号に暮らす五人Gourmet book about some women living together in the same share house.It already has a 1/5 on Amazon.>虹いろ図書館のひなとゆんFriendship.>カナエトメイ 怪奇専門探偵事務所>husband>姉妹傭兵It doesn't say anything about yuri but it sounds like it would be an interesting story if it was.So this month there are the two Inukai Anzu's volumes, WataNare and that other new yuri story.Inukai Anzu has been very prolific recently, how does she get all these volume releases?
>>4449532To be fair, the afterword is vague there and doesn't explicitly mention sex. It could just mean more biting, but it's either way it's high time for a kiss. We've already had a straight-up profession of love and the story has made it very clear that the only thing that could tear them apart is death. I read in an earlier thread that the editors or whoever insisted on toning down the yuri and that's exactly how it feels while reading it.
Two yuri harem romcom LNs releasing within a month of each other themed around succubus? https://yuribungeibu.com/ningen-chan-no-keikaishin-ga-ususugiru001/This one is about a succubus who wants to make a harem of human girlshttps://yuribungeibu.com/koakuma-tachi-ga-hanashitekurenai001/This one is apparently about a human girl whose life force attracts succubui.
>>4452325I won't touch them until I'll be sure they are yuri succubi and not the usual succubi that have no place in yuri series.
>>4452325Both seem utterly devoid of any originality and an actual plot.
can someone tell me if>Dragon-san Wants a Friend! is yuri or at the very least yuri friendly?
Has anyone read this? How is it? Title is Mercenary Sisters in case you don't wanna open the link. https://x.com/tsuzuriyuri/status/1949461589540679897?s=46
>>4452862The title is 姉妹傭兵 if you really want to find something.
https://twitter.com/gagaga_bunko/status/1925744963301650503I hope this one will be about the yandere.
Speaking of things devoid of originality and an actual plot, I finished reading The Girl Who Wants to Be a Hero and the Girl Who Ought to Be a Hero today. It's a standard magical battle academy story where the demon girl MC goes to the human kingdom to attend Hero School and falls in love with her class's straightlaced honor roll student. On her first day, she beats up a hotblooded bully, whose mother then tries to get MC and her girlfriend expelled from school. The students have to wear a magical AI chatbot thing that helps them predict enemy attacks and tells them what things they should specialize in, and there's a subplot that these devices are being used to brainwash the students, but Inori seems to have forgotten this particular story thread in the latter half of the book. Oh yeah, I didn't realize that Inori had written it until I had already bought the book, and I wasn't quite sure how to refund things on kindle, so I read it anyway. MC-chan's special ability is to devour the magical energy of her opponent, to drain it, or her ally, to get powered up. She gets kissed by her partner during the climactic battle at the end of the book to power her up, and she says that she might have to kiss her other friends to get different powers, much like Komari from the vampire books. If it goes poly, I'll probably drop it. I was hoping to ship the bully with her alcoholic mom, but she does get some decent chemistry with one of her flunkies, which was cute.

>>4455520The original doujinshi, available on sadpanda, says they are "business partner" and "buddies". It may be another Carneades case, that one was born from a simple illustration too and it wasn't tagged as yuri but it turned out to be very yuri friendly.Speaking of Carneades, what happened to the manga? It's been a while since the last time I saw a new chapter.
Started reading Otherside picnic recently and I wasn't prepared for how funny it is that Satsuki sounds like a groomer

At which volume does vden turn gay? The audiobook version is at the third volume and I plan to binge it when it reaches the gay part.
To follow up on >>4447339. Miyazawa really released his powerlevel on this one. I've never read a book with this many lesbian shapeship kisses before.
I’ll be waiting for the audiobook version.
>>4456239>lesbian shapeship kisses before.What does that look like?
私の怪談師はポンコツ可愛い tries too hard to be Urasekai but it doesn't have Miyazawa's writing skills and the story is not nearly as interesting.The yuri is good all right, it was beyond my expectations, a lot of cute and gay moments, but I just don't get how this author debuted with a serialization when even famous, skilled and experienced authors have to go though unnumbered first volumes without knowing if they'll get a second one.
>>4456398Was it a prize winner for a LN contest or something?Also remember Otherside Picnic technically isn’t considered a LN, it’s a novel that happens to have illustrations.
>>4456367Two girls kissing. But at least one also happens to be a spaceship.
>>4456398I like it, especially the last chapter, which I feel was really well executed. I don't know that much about LN publishing, but it might be pretty cheap to publish sequels for new authors. It looks like they got publishing rights for only 10万 out of the contest already.>>4456657It won this contest for unpublished books:https://firecross.jp/award/award21

Menou defeating Michele by turning her into a tree was sick. If Menou and Akari are sharing the same body, and she fingers herself, is it sex or masturbation?
I took that one anon's advice and watched the Strawberry Panic anime after reading the books. It was definitely a different experience, like two authors took the same characters and made an entirely different universe with them. I much preferred Shizuma's portrayal in the novels as being a perverted blowhard, rather than her characterization in the anime of an ethereal, mysterious senpai. The anime didn't even have the girl who came back from Russia to challenge Amane and had to hook up with the little girl as her partner. The anime also, perhaps not surprisingly, left out some of the racier parts of the novel, like the part where Yaya gropes Hikari in the pool and later regrets that she should've either gone all the way and fingered Hikari or just left her alone. The anime did have some good parts, like when Kizuna and Remon are thumb wrestling and Kizuna just starts kissing Remon to distract her. It also felt like the anime's writers shoehorned the Etoile election into the final half-dozen episodes, and Amane's brief period of amnesia felt like cheap drama, although it wasn't nearly as intense as all the bullying that took place in the novels. Now I understand all the memes of Shizuma having the disease that makes her spontaneously explode and whatnot. I was feeling too lazy to download a torrent so I bought the DVDs used and I can't help but wonder if they were someone's first yuri experience. Anyway, Tamao was the best.
Some authors really sucks at starting a series.They have a story in mind but in order to write it they have to come up with a situation in which the two girls meet and start their relationship, but the premise of the story they have in mind is so out of the ordinary that any situation will be absurd and irrealistic but it will be forced anyway in order to start the story.It was the case with ShuuKura and it is the case with クラスの姫は私のわんこ."I saw you didn't let your friend copy your homeworks but you helped her to do them herself so become my master and treat me like a pet" doesn't make any sense.And the answer to such a thing would be "are you ok in the head?" and not "why me?"."Because I think you're fit to do it but if you don't want I'll just ask a random guy" is another piece in a discussion that makes you wonder what the hell you are reading.The pet play itself doesn't have a solid ground even after you read the characters' background, both for the pet that wanted to be treated like a pet because all her life people told her how cute she is and for the MC that turns into a beast out of nowhere because her sister doesn't spend time with her anymore, but in the end it remains just a fetish play they do when they are alone like if it was simply sex, and for the rest of the story they're just a normal couple.The pet play moments are weird but everything else was very good, I feel like Inukai Anzu is getting better volume after volume. Speaking of which, how did she get so many volumes and series one after the other? She's getting more prolific than Mikami Teren in his golden age.Anyway, I hope a second volume will be announced because there's still a lot more to elaborate with both the friend and the little sister.
where can I find the LN/WN raws for ShuuKura? the WN translator is good but also 3 years behind I can't wait for more at such a cliffhanger point in the story

>>4466178AdaShima and Urasekai are above 4000 in their first week. This has been a weak week with the first rank not even reaching 4000 copies so ShuuKura has been lucky, normally for a LN to rank it must have 3000/4000 copies depending on the week.They recently announced it reached 200.000 copies anyway.https://twitter.com/shukura_fb/status/1951126042636378353
ShuuKura is a fucking masterpiece.How can the author write it? Isn't the author just a prophet hearing the voice of the yuri megami?I can't believe how perfect it is. Another volume of nothing but their feelings for each other.Miyagi jealous of a cat, Sendai lost looking at Miyagi smiling, Miyagi hitting Sendai with the platypus. It's all too precious, I can't find the words.But it also hurts bad. Sendai with her sister, how did they end up like they are now? I'm too weak for shimai yuri. With HimeWanko too, I suffered when the little sister didn't eat dinner with the MC after MC was looking forward to it. People on the internet told me sisters should be together [quote], so why do these things happen?And then there is the 9yo Miyagi. I cried. Alone in that home, wishing for a dog. And she says Sendai is like a dog. It's all linked. I'm so glad they found each other.I didn't expect a whole volume without sex, Sendai is a saint, but maybe Miyagi is finally changing.I spent all yesterday and today reading it, now it says the next volume is on "2015's winter", that means December, right? Or does Japan call the beginning of the year "last year's winter"? But even then, it's 4 months from now, what do I do with my life?For WN readers, this volume ends with Sendai talking to Miyagi about the new part-time job for October, how far is it from the WN?
been using readera for English translations but when I use Japanese epubs it skips any kanji with furigana above it, anyone else had this problem or know a better reader for mobile?
>>4466171With the anime announcement they are rushing to release all the volumes until 9, 5 came out a few months ago.
https://twitter.com/toshizone23/status/1962314708343816569YuriTama flashbacks.How did he manage to get a #1 on this volume?
>>4466641I presume the publisher is trying to push for it since yuri LNs are selling well.
>>4466531I don't have that problem with Readera. You might want to try Perfect Viewer. That one even lets you change the normal text and furigana font size and color independently. I had to mostly abandon it for Readera because on my new phone it just crashes immediately with most epubs, but maybe it works for you.
>>4465364It’s actually not that good.
