Is it just me, or do girls who stan vintage fashion and dresses also tend to be a bit gay?
>>4492651Wearing cute frilly vintage dresses is for women like taking steroids until your muscles explode is for men.

Has Friedman leaked the release date of the Moon anime as being spring, in an ANN review of the manga?
>>4492671It's not fair...

What are the chances that Yoko is also a robot, albeit an even more humanoid model than Airi, and the dreams she has are just memories from the living Yoko who died and had her memories transferred into a robot?
>>4492807Not large but not zero.Just like there is a small but not zero chance that this is a simulation and they are the memories of real people uploaded SOMA style into a computer on a space ship.

>>4492822There's nothing yuri about the manga though
>>4492824>P&Sgrim
Thank god the shitty sequel to this shitty anime flopped hard
>>4492823Wrong.
>>4492828As far as I understand, the first season wasn't particularly successful either; it's more one of those cases where Western barbarians inflate something with hype and pretend it's something super important for the industry and the world (like Tokyo Ghoul).
>>4492830Bringing back old franchises or even remaking old anime is just not working out on japan.
Why hasn't Frankenstein gotten a Yuri version yet? There's been a million Dracula Yuri knockoffs, but why not Franky?
>>4492859I'm so sick of people making their own version of some old classic thing just because it's recognizable and public domain. Make something original that takes inspiration from an old classic but stop being so damn reliant on something you didn't make.
>>4492859reanimated corpses are gross
>>4492859Carmilla predates Dracula
>>4492868Aren't Vampires reanimated corpses?
>>4492859Franken Fran and her sister are pretty gay.
>>4492721What
>>4492863I sometime fantasize about a story where Carmilla wakes up in the year 3000On a colonized Mars The story would mirror certain elements of the classic novel but would ultimately just be Futurama with lesbian vampires
looking to read manga about girls falling for their straight best friends. I know what I’m asking but minimal het would be appreciated
>>4492889I'd read it.
>>4492863This reminds me of a yuri novel I came across which was just Camilla but with a chapter that randomly added werewolves now.
>>4492890>straight>minimal hetDoesn't compute.
>>4492833A lot of remakes are to satisfy the source autists who seethed when the anime goes for a different story than the manga, so now they're being remade to follow the manga storyAll because FMA. Brotherhood showed people there's a chance that even if a manga already got adapted into an anime original shitshow, it could get a new adaptation that is more faithful and thus they started chimping out for more of that
>>4492890Koinega Datenshi soprano chan no fukushuu
Shut the fuck up
Yuri is just fiction, it's meant to be entertainment, there is toxic straight manga, there is toxic BL manga and there is toxic yuri manga, because it has an audience for it. If you are unhappy with a product created on a society which has nothing to do with western issues then it's just not for you.

>>4492994Isn't that more /y/ than /u/?
>>4492994From the perspective of yuri? Not really, it's a pretty limited amount of the screen time each season, though it does produce nice art.
>>4492994No, it's a yaoi show that just happens to have a lesbian couple as the protagonists.
>>4492953That would require the west to produce something with lesbians in it out of love and for fun, instead of checking off a point on a diversity list.If anyone thinks I'm wrong, now's your chance to prove me wrong with a list of fun lesbian stuff made in the west that doesn't do that. I will not be checking to see if you're right though.

>>4493000
>>4492671How yuri is that?
>>4493008There's minimal het.
>>4493011How do you even find titles like that? It doesn't have gl tag.Is there like a comprehensive list for that out there? titles that don't have gl tag but somewhat glOr do you just read everything tagged with female protagonist?
>>4492998Do the lesbian couple not get shat on by the narrative, at least? (Broken up, ship teased with non-female characters, etc.)
>>4493016They are the extremely healthy, supportive and stable couple of the show. https://files.catbox.moe/wvy8yi.mp4
>>4493019Wow, that's actually pretty cool then.
>>4492859There is a yuri game called patchwork girl that is exactly what you're looking for.Good luck getting it to workhttps://archive.org/details/patchworkgirl-shelley-jackson
>>4493019That's actually pretty cute
>>4493008Main two girls had this developing buddies relationship going on, culminating in that page in the final chapter. There was also the MC's evil siscon sister, and a boob-groping discount Katsuragi.>>4493012The first chapter was posted here a few months ago.
>>4493031People were on the fence about it because it had too much fanservice, sometimes involving guys.

>>4493084I love Amy sure is a wonderful read!
>>4493084One of the best yuri I've read
>>4493094Are you asking why it's too lesbian or why it's too much for this board? And you can't answer both.
>>4493054>as Queen
Queen. but yuri
>>4493019They're very reminiscent of Margot and Malga from the Horizon On the Middle of Nowhere seriesHealthy, supportive couple that got their thing going on while also being part of the main plot, except even more important since the show's premise is based on Charlie's goal.I think they got sidelined a little bit in Season 1 with how much the show creators tried to cram into the season with an uncertain future but since the show has two more seasons greenlit, they've gotten much more focus in Season 2 as they should.
>>4493107Both. I CAN answer that because nothing is stopping me and I'm capable of doing so, what you should have said is "You MAY not answer both."I would have disregarded this anyway even had you said this, because I'm a rebel and you can't stop me, bitch.

>>4493128I still can't believe that Hoshi became what she hated the most...either die a yaya or live long enough to see yourself become the Shizuma...
>>4493130 Chitaira planted this seed when she said Hoshi was good looking. I also wonder if this was really the end for them, I can easily see Hoshi 1 or 2 years later being in a bad time and falling for Chitaira sending her a message asking to talk a little.
>>4493101How did Amy, a child abuse and bullying victim, become a meek submissive masochist lesbian?
>>4492935>just fiction>meant to be entertainmentThen why is lolicon yuri so hated on the internet
>>4493140>a child abuse and bullying victim, become a meek submissiveYou just answered your own question>lesbianShe always had prefered women
>>4493141The internet can't tell fiction apart from reality.
>>4493141Because dating decades or even longer, people were always upset about what fictional entertainment you enjoy for bullshit reasons, the internet just turned complaining and outrage into a sport, if not outright weaponized it, lolicon is just an easy target even though so many of the people complaining turn out to be groomers themselves, which actually makes sense since no one normal will give enough of a shit about this stuff.

>>4493084I Love Bibi
>>4492859Frankenstein also made the Bride, but she was too pretty, and he had to kill her in the book. I can't see the bride surviving and being taken in by a cloister or a kind family thinking she's just scarred or simply be educated by Victor's bride in the book.
>>4493012>How do you even find titles like that? It doesn't have gl tag.You get a sixth sense for these things(It's the "Female Protagonist with Male Demographic" tag)
>>4493140>how did Amy, who suffered [things that result in meek submissive masochist lesbians] become a meek submissive masochist lesbian?A mystery for the ages.
>>4493144>>4493240You'd think having those traumas would make someone not enjoy that kind of thing.

>>4493309Thats pretty Adachicoded...
>>4493359Fishe destroying Foxe...
>>4493375Well Adachi is in fact better looking, smarter and definitely stronger than most people
>>4493379It's wise that you shit talk Bibi and not Amy
>>4493375What makes Adachi think she does have the strength to kill someone? I don't remember her being particularly athletic.
>>4493381Shimamura points out she has an almost inhuman strength a few times, which is actually pretty common in the city the live.
My fav head canon
>>4493363>Kiwi bombs Sayo>Mai makes Ajisai cry but still goes along with the 3p out of pity>Shiori puts down the foxThe weak should fear the strong.
>>4493386Adachi is also supposed to be tall and flat chested. None of which anyone ever seems to remember, so why would remembering she was stronger and more athletic than Shimamura be different?Artists are always drawing the two of them at nearly the same size and shape. It really bugs me and it leads to things like 'what makes Adachi think she can do X?' questions.
>>4493359>the foxes should fear the fish
>>4493405I mean, Iruma does remember, he is very consistent with how he portrays the characters, but he isn't going to fight artists when he understands very well they know what appeals visually more or not with their artwork.
Watanare joins the million copies in cirrulation club.
>>4493494Which isn't very impressive when there are 8 novel volumes and 8 manga volumes.
>>4493499It would be limited by the number of copies available - what would be more interesting is the jump since the anime aired.
>>4493500the average jumped like 20k.
>>4493405I remember that Adachi is the taller one, yes. But for the bust size I got the feeling that Adachi thinks Shimamura has bigger tits and Shimamura thinks Adachi has. And we don't know the truth for certain
>>4493509Shimamura is bigger when they are younger, but older Adachi is bigger.

thoughts on Princession Orchestra?
>>4494144It's a good anime, although at the moment it's a bit low on yuri, it has its gay moments, including characters of the week, the most romantic thing is MC and her normal friend.It's proof that you can have an anime for little girls without forcing a terrible het romance with a Gary Stu or with a former antagonist, and without including a super overrated team of men.
>>4494160example of characters of the week.
>>4494160>you can have an anime for little girls without forcing a terrible het romancegive it time
>>4493500Previously it had 800k copies when volume 8 was released. So 200k more copies in circulation in less than 2 months.
>>4494160>anime for little girls without forcing a terrible het romanceMahoako did it first.
>>4492433Can't really post the full image but Sunrise the main character design artist posted some new box art for the 20th Anniversary Box Set of Mai Hime / Mai Otome.
>>4494206Were they any announcements in Mai anniversary event?
>>4494007Him being Akebi's first crush was disgusting but that's probably just for realism's sake
>>4493632>>4493633>>4493634>>4493636>>4493637>draw your favorite yuri ship like thisYuri fans are so useless. This could've been a twitter art trend.
>>4494205Mahoako isn't for little girls. It's for middle school girls.
>>4494216Anon, it's just meant to be a cute thing and not really meant to be interpreted as a romantic thing, no one who is nor.al would think so.
>>4494224It's romantic. Still disgusting, but I know it's not that serious. This is a real thing that happens to normal girls het or not.
>>4494229Anon don't be a creep or you will really never have a girlfriend.
>>4494224>>4494014
>>4494208Just advertising the box set
>>4494238>Just advertising the box setWhat a waste of time really. They should have announced a special episode or something to keep interest of the franchise.
>>4494224If the writer wasn't a m*le I would agree. At least h* didn't grope Akebi though.
>>4494242>to keep interest of the franchise.about 15 years too late for that.
More amazing than people still thinking Mai Hime was a yuri series and would remain yuri, it's people thinking anyone gave a shit about the series.
>>4493801flabby labias
>>4494262Apparently, Bandai Namco and Sunrise do considering they keep posting on social media about it.
>>4494224That's the excuse, but it was always obvious how hard the author waifufags for his character with all the creep shots that were always there, so making her fall in love with his self-insert was the natural next step.It's good that it led to yuri developments, but knowing he's probably always fantasizing about a threesome with himself will never not be creepy.
>>4494193The series is halfway through, the male villains are dead, and the new antagonists are women (even if one looks like a man and even wears a male uniform, but only women can enter that world and be reminded at every opportunity that she is a girl).>>4494205>>4494221Speaking of Mahoako and series for girls, it's funny that people pretend that Acro Trip is even the same or equivalent, when the sad reality is that it's a mediocre series at best with a boring and uncharismatic villain protagonist, a boring and uncharismatic magical girl, a boring and uncharismatic pet, a boring and uncharismatic antagonist, and the only worthwhile thing is the female protagonist wasted in a boring and uncharismatic series.
>>4494318If they really cared about the series, there would be new material since it ended a long time ago, similar to all the (pathetic) attempts that the Nanoha people have made to not let the series die (even more), especially when the series for which they abandoned Nanoha was not as successful as they wanted.
>>4494336What happened to the Nanoha franchise after Strikers and the Movies? I lost track.
>>4494333>His self insert>Her dadYou need help anon
>>4494339Are they recap movies or movies that aim to follow a different story while still being lolinoha (meaning less yuri)?Because we had the gacha related to Nanoha and nobody knew it was Nanoha until it was shut down, we have a new anime/manga that follows the same continuity (with less yuri) as the last 2 movies, clearly showing that the people in charge have no fucking idea what people really want from Nanoha, instead they keep pushing military bureaucracy and ugly armor.
>>4494160>you can have an anime for little girls without forcing a terrible het romance with a Gary Stu or with a former antagonist, and without including a super overrated team of menThe monkey paw curls a finger...
>>4494336>>4494344Oh they have a very very clear vision of what they want, they want to keep the universe, the lore and the fans, they want cute girls for the people to waifu or ship them, but they understand very well they can't do shit unless Nanoha is attached to it, so they have to sideline both Nanoha and Fate as much as they can because they know very well they can't detach them from lesbianism anymore, Lolinoha was their excuse to have minimal Nanofate and the type of artwork you would expect from gatcha, but too bad for them because loli manga and anime is dead and has no international reach, so they will do exactly what we know they will do in the next anime>Focus on new characters>Nanoha and Fate show up for 2 minutes action scenes and then become just exposition characters with some weakass nanofate pandering in the very end
>>4494348>Lolinoha was their excuse to have minimal NanofateThat's why I hate people who despise the series or what it presents after StrikerS, especially with Vivid and Vivid Strike (there's nothing else). You have new characters, there are no contradictions to the yuri, quite the opposite with Nanoha and Fate, even without being in the spotlight. They are basically a married couple looking out for the new generation that takes up their mantle (similar to those sequels with a new generation that tend to fail so much).Okay, I've attached an image of the new Nanoha manga (please don't delete it, it's for informational purposes) and you can see the priorities and that we're not in good hands.It's funny how these people have the damn answer right under their noses for how to continue Nanoha and expand the world, but they prefer to keep coming up with convoluted, shitty excuses, on a (new) Silent Hill level instead.
>>4494342>>4494014
>>4493797Haters gonna hate, we had SOVL
>>4494348Nah, waifufags have zero issues with lusting after nanoha and fate, the creator is just incompetent and couldn't come up with a new story that's actually about them if his life depended on it, as was always the case.As for the yuri, he cautiously rode the wave back then when it accidentally befell his series, but he obviously doesn't give a shit about it and will only do the bare minimum to entice customers, extreme hearts was the same, lolis have nothing to do with it.If it was up to him he'd probably only do shit like dog days, but it doesn't sell.
>>4494366>> lolis have nothing to do with it.The problem with Nanoha isn't the lolis themselves, but rather the series getting stuck in that particular time period and refusing to move forward with what Vivid/Vivid Strike set up. And you can't say that part was irrelevant, because there was a lot of fan material focused on either the new couple or a lot of NTR jokes at Vivio's expense, something I ironically didn't see with the movies, even though they had the super popular Materials.>>If it was up to him he'd probably only do shit like dog days, but it doesn't sell.It's funny how the series, clearly made for waifus, with cute girls who end up naked for any excuse and a minimal number of men who literally only serve to make it clear that this will never be yuri, ended up being basically forgotten.
>>4494348>Oh they have a very very clear vision of what they want, they want to keep the universe, the lore and the fans, they want cute girls for the people to waifu or ship them, but they understand very well they can't do shit unless Nanoha is attached to it, so they have to sideline both Nanoha and Fate as much as they can because they know very well they can't detach them from lesbianism anymore,Absurd. Nanoha and Mai Hime both aired at the same season in 2004, they had their own merit and success. Are you telling me they are scared over Nanoha anniversary project but they won't release their own new content, that's bullshit really bullshit.
>>4494368>refusing to move forwardThere's nothing inherently wrong with it, you can have 200 episodes about the same three elementary school magical girls and still make them good and yuri, they just suck at it and obviously don't even care.
Make a new LN thread already.
>>4494374Not really, the problem is refusing to move forward, and that means preventing relationships from evolving or taking any direction. It's simply getting stuck in a relationship that isn't progressing (the same old boring and tiresome shipptease).It's like if a yuri author got stuck in the period before their main couple got together or married, but that would never happen in yuri, because it would be really stupid.
>>4494366>>4494368It's because the author and everyone involved in the franchise never expected nanofate would be any different from any other 2000s yurish pair, it was originally meant to be just to be a spice for the fanservice and you can easily see this with how shameless the promotional material of the time was. The fact nanofate became a big thing got them by surprise and while there were still some egregious promotional stuff until Vivid era it pretty much defined how they had to portray Nanoha and Fate.Vivid came too late for a sequel, almost a decade later and it was toned down version of the original in every aspect but with far less interesting characters, though at least fans didn't hate it like they did with Force.>>4494373Nanoha was just a much bigger franchise, that all there is to it.
>>4494335Acro Trip is just a pure unadultered cope for repressed puritans who think cartoon nudity is literally child porn.
>Dog DaysThat is less romantic than Nanoha and it's het, so I don't think the author hates yuri. He just doesn't want to do/can't do romantic development. Chrono and Amy were entirely off-screen and Amy dissapeared. It's very much and "oh yeah, they got married" thing that isn't focused onOtherwise, Caro and Erio are the token straight ship from StrikerS and went nowhereThe problem with Nanoha is they stopped knowing what to do once FORCE failed and they didn't want to cancel or retcon it for whatever reason. So you have stuff set before StrikerS because it's the most convenient empty time period. Going after StrikerS would mean having to decide what to do with FORCE1) Do a retelling and try to keep it canon anyways2) Skip to after it and try to make any new stories work without knowledge of FORCE. Probably use some excuse to make the events irrelevant3) Make it non-canon and write a new story set after SrikerS>>4494383You should drop magical girls as a genre if you want romantic confirmation. MahoAko (and Revolutionary Utena if it counts) are the only ones with explicit yuri. Otherwise, it's all subtext. Nanoha, Symphogear, Princession, Precure. All of itHow much further can it progress from wedding official art, sleeping and living together and adopting a daughter? It's ridiculous they won't ever leave "super friends" status. But that's how all magical girls are. Expect dissapointment when Madoka movie 4 also refuses to do anything beyond subtext and has no confirmed couples and it's all ship tease
>>4494385>Nanoha was just a much bigger franchiseTrue, but to say Mai Hime franchise died due to the Nanoha franchise success is bullshit.
>>4494385>too lateOnly if you look at the anime. The manga started (2009) only 2 years after StrikerS anime (2007). I think they wanted to do a FORCE anime adaptation first, before FORCE failed. When that failed all plans went to shit, and eventually they did Vivid adaptation and Vivid Strike and the movies and you can see the start of not knowing what to do>Vivid and Vivid Strike avoid the Force question by focusing on other characters>movies and the new exceeds project are AU and set before StrikerS era.FORCE was a mistake that hurt the franchise in ways it will never recover from
/a/ also pretends Acro Trip is anything but forgettable because it's hetshit I guess. Are they the ones pitting Mahoako against Acro Trip?
>>4494393Well I didn't say this so...>>4494394They definitely wanted FORCE to be the next big thing and Vivid manga was probably doing better than they expected but it just wasn't going to be the following they wanted it to be, they tried to course correct with the Vivid spinoff anime but it was too convoluted of a setting, it's not wonder they literally started over from scratch but everything points out they learned the wrong lessons. >>4494395It's just similar works that aired one season after the other.
>on NanohaIt's telling how forgettable Innocent/Innocents was that nobody mentioned it. So forgettable I had to look up whether the "we want the card game audience" thing actually happened or if I was having a fever dream.
>>4494395I understand that they glorify it also because it's supposedly a "normal magical girl series" in an era of "dark magical girls," which is really stupid when you know about the genre, not just because of the parodies or references to Sailor Moon (not even the real series; these people ignore that people die in that series).The problem is that Acro Trip is mediocre not only for the genre, but as a comedy or anime in general. The het that /a/ glorifies is so bad that you have to be told it exists because you don't realize it. This series is on the same level as Twin Angel or Matoi in doing things badly, and those last two are otaku series that even a 9-year-old girl would consider boring.
>>4494396The franchise started as anime. So, any non-anime projects won't attract as many people. Look at that anon commenting on when the Vivid anime started instead of the manga. People only remember or care about FORCE because it was such a retarded thing that hurt the franchise badlyPeople also don't mention the PSP games despite the characters from those (Florian sisters, Materials, Yuri) being so popular they made it into the Reflection and Detonation movies instead of being locked to the gamesAnd if you actually compare, many would say their movie selves pale in comparison to the games. So it's not about quality. It's that people only look at the anime
>>4494400>The franchise started as animeWell, technically, it started as a game. But we don't, and shouldn't talk about Triangle Hearts.
>>4494391>You should drop magical girls as a genre if you want romantic confirmation. MahoAko (and Revolutionary Utena if it counts) are the only ones with explicit yuri. Otherwise, it's all subtext. Nanoha, Symphogear, Princession, Precure. All of itI mean, we do have yuri magical girl manga, it just wasn't adapted like Mahoako was.>How much further can it progress from wedding official art, sleeping and living together and adopting a daughter? It's ridiculous they won't ever leave "super friends" status. But that's how all magical girls are. Expect dissapointment when Madoka movie 4 also refuses to do anything beyond subtext and has no confirmed couples and it's all ship teaseNips never really go outside of what they originally plan for their works, they already had all the merch planned, contracts written with the full scope of how the characters will be portrayed and so on. Though we are not in the 2010s anymore, we have several anime with the same shiptease shit every year and now they are competing with vtubershit and gatchashit for the same audience.
>>4494402>Nips never really go outside of what they originally plan for their worksIt shows."It's a yuri ecchi magical girl series airing at otaku o'clock. It won't be very popular."(Three weeks later)"What do you mean it's outselling Frieren?"
Really the takeaway here is that despite all of the fuckery the franchise went through for dumb reasons, it could very well still work out fine if they just did at least decent character development for the leads, with yuri subtext up to modern standards.But what they're doing now doesn't even measure up to what they did 20+ years ago.
>>4494402>gachashitAre they?. The only remotely yuri gacha is Heaven Burns Red. Otherwise it's playersexual shit where the female MC happens to be an optionIf you're going to say that, then Nanoha, Sympho and others were competing with haremshit and other such stuff for the same audienceShip tease stuff like LycoReco or Girls Band Cry still sells well, when it's made
>>4494404Don't start this again, Frieren is not a series meant to sell BDs but merch. >>4494406It doesn't matter if they are, playersexual for the shipping audience is not different than yuri pandering, you can look at the number of artwork yourself and see there is no comparison.
>>4494405Because it's a half assed effort, "we want the nanoha audience" but "we don't want nanoha" is the dumbest approach they could have taken with any sequel and we are on the 3th or 4th sequel they insist on this.
>>4494406>The only remotely yuri gacha is Heaven Burns Red.Reverse 1999
>>4494410>slopren is meant to sell funko popsTo the surprise of no one.
>>4494417Yes anon, it's literally cute elf does things while thinking how she will forever love the dead self inserter who will totally not come back by the end

>>4494391>You should drop magical girls as a genre if you want romantic confirmation. MahoAko (and Revolutionary Utena if it counts) are the only ones with explicit yuri. Otherwise, it's all subtext. Nanoha, Symphogear, Princession, Precure. All of itSailor moon = explicit and in a lesbian relationship according to the creator Magical girl site = explicit Magical girl spec ops = explicit Symphogear = confirmed explicit by the gacha (if you consider it canon)Machikado Mazoku = explicit Cutie honey = explicit lesbian relationships (depending on the adaptation)assault lily = explicit Alien 9 = explicit. The sequel was unnecessary and muddied the water somewhat with their relationship, but Kumi is still explicitly romantically in-love either wayblue reflection ray = never watched the anime, but second light had explicit lesbian relationshipsHina logi = has multiple kisses and a borderline confession. im counting it as explicit Yuki yuna = explicit, confirmed by the writers. Heard the VN was less subtle about it, but never played it
>>4494515>Yuki yuna = explicit, confirmed by the writersWhen did this happen?
why do so many yuris have that one scene where one of them gets some kinda liquid on their face that is made to resemble cum? especially sometimes when the other gets turned on by it? why would a lesbian get turned on by a pseudo facial?
>>4494614wut
>>4494600Maybe they're referring to the gacha. I don't remember any confirmation though.
>>4493680>the most successful>yuriif commercial success was any kind of reliable meter for quality, het would be infinitely better than yuriwhenever someone has to rely on anything other than the work itself to defend it, he's invalidating his own argument
>>4494515The Symphogear gacha claim is suspect. Many people have claimed it and I've seen no evidence it goes beyond Nanoha's wedding official arts. Just some images teasing shit without ever leaving super friends territoryAnyways, you also mention Blue Reflection. If gachashit is valid, then Blue Reflection is literally het haremshit because that's what it's gacha wasYuuki Yuuna's claim is also suspect. And otherwise, only Re:Cutie Honey and Hina Logi count as remotely anime original among your other examples. The others I have not mentioned are all adaptations. Good examples, but sadly still a minority. Anime original magical girl will never escape Ship tease hellAlso, Assault Lily and Alien 9 aren't even magical girl. If those count, we could also count Valkyrie Drive. But Magical Girl =/= girls who use or interact with magic
https://detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp/qa/question_detail/q13280328638The yuri revolution is finally happening, straight girls are getting bullied for not being lesbian

>>4494638Too soon. We need either iPS working or cloning technology before that
>>4492435Is this series worth reading? I remember it being good but not really yuri. And then it started to emulate Promised Neverland with shitty mind game intrigues and also went het so I dropped it.
>>4494649It's very slow-paced and it spent the last few years on subplots that ended up not mattering that much, but it seems to be on its way to a climax.I'd say it's worth reading if you're into unique settings and premises, but the only yuri is with Maryrose/Rosemary, since the author is now forcing Emilyko with Sean.

anyone else have any het anime they wish were yuri instead? I felt that hard with Takagi San
>>4496670In the Evangelion thread, I had this fantasy about Evangelion being yuri. Asuka would be the main character and the focus of the story would be about her oedipal relationship with Misato. Parallelly she and Rei would develop each other via contrasting personalities, and we add Hikari into the mix too, as the yaya friend.

>>4496670HOTD would be kino without the male self-insert.
>>4496779>cut out the god awful self-insertThat applies to every het anime or game with one.
>>4496785The negative side of shipping/"coded" shit. People are desperate for representation in popular shit, so they attach themselves to shit that isn't remotely yuri and push crack shit as canon. And if you call them out, they'll claim their headcanon is innofensive and you're homophobic, even, That you should let people find representation where they want because there's not enough legit yuri. But there's no legit yuri because it doesn't sell. Because these people would rather ship popular het characters and roll in self insert haremshit gachatrash like Honkai Star Rail, Zenless, Genshin or Wuthering Waves or whatever than support legit yuri gacha like Heaven Burns Red or the now dead Towa SugaiThere's a point where the delusional "pretend het is gay" shit just harms yuri and yuri fans who want legit yuri and not het trash
>>4496670Spice & Wolf
>>4496818Part of the blame also lies with those artists or people desperate for attention, so they're going to use popular trash to gain notoriety. That includes taking two characters from a popular series and pretending it's yuri. It's worse when people force their notion of what yuri is, but they don't really even care about the supposed couples they're promoting; they're only interested in getting attention.
>>4496818I agree but also disagree, I don't think most people are desperate for representation at all, shipping is just inherently emotionally dishonest and people just fall for shit like this, though I'm not sure if it really harms anything because I personally don't see any of those people ever getting interested in anything that isn't super popular and as we know yuri will never be really popular because there is a hard cap due to the cultural perception around homosexuality.If Watanare or Watatabe were super popular, you would honestly see people shipping Renako and Haruka or Hinako and Miko and freaking out the same way they do with other series.
>>4496818>But there's no legit yuri because it doesn't sellProblem is that the arguments become a little stupid"Here's some legit yuri">"Nooo it's too lewd!""Here's some legit yuri without lewd">"Nooo it's too toxic!""Here's some legit yuri without lewd or toxicity">"Thanks!"(It doesn't sell)>"I hate yuri!"
>>4496825And this is why you see from time to time anons bringing up nonsense like "it doesn't sell because it lacks men", when they are just falling for poor excuse someone made to justify why they don't buy yuri when the truth is that they just don't like yuri.
>>4496826>anons bringing up nonsense like "it doesn't sell because it lacks men"Nobody of note would ever say this.
>>4496827I'm pretty sure that's the mentality of many editors or "important" people in the industry, that's why you have projects that were originally all girls, but now have one or more male characters.
>>4496827I mean this applies to everyone here>>4496829Anon meant it lacks men in the cast, not it lacks a male protagonist
>>4496824>If Watanare were super popularI know who you are.
>>4496867He doesn't post here you fucking retard, Watanare is a popular yuri series, but it's not Frieren's level of popularity.
>>4496872I know who you are.
>>4496873
how much Watanare BD sold anyway?
>>4496670Yuri battle harems would be funny to see
>>4496670I will say Yofukashi but there already make a yuri vertion called Mayonaka Punch
>>4496873The leader of lost souls.
>>4496888Well we have Hikikomari and Ange Vierge.
Are hetfags literally mentally ill?
>>4496670Good luck girl and magical witch punie-chan.the former i was misled into thinking was yuri somewhere online, and the latter was wishful thinking.I just really want more enemies to rivals yuri. We're lucky to even get subtext ones like LWA
Anyone else notice how common it is for a yuri to use the pattern of>Girl-A perspective for 1st half>Girl-A confesses her love>switch to Girl-B perspective for 2nd half>Girl-B starts organizing her feelings, ends up confessing toonot complaining though, i like it.
>>4496670Bakemonogatari would work pretty well as yuri, just have the girls meet each other and solve each other's problems rather than Dude Person.
>>4497118Bimbougami ga was a series that was only one step removed from being yuri. If only the MC didn't have a boyfriend, it would have become an underrated classic.It was actually quite popular here on /u/ when it was airing because the anime never reached the part of the manga where the het romance starts. I think the author even threw yurifag fans a bone by revealing that Momiji and Sakura were lovers in a previous life.
>>4497135Girl Friends showed this was the way to go, one of the advantages of yuri in regards to heterosexual romance, be it heterosexual shonen or shoujo, is that the audience won't get upset if the author suddenly changes the perspective to the other side. >>4497142Anon, she was in love with the guy in the first chapters and I don't think breaking the yuri narratives are throwing a bone to us.
>>4497145You mean hetshitters get mad when pov is changed? Why.
>>4497154Hetshitters have low media literacy and low intelligence all around.
>>4497154It's not all of them mind you, but the audience for stuff like Kaguya Sama is very different from the usual romcomfags (it was mostly women to begin with) who just care about self inserting and can't relate when the protagonist suddenly is a girl for a few chapters, imagine whole volumes. Shoujofags also have the equivalent of this with yumes.
>>4497142>> I think the author even threw yurifag fans a bone by revealing that Momiji and Sakura were lovers in a previous life.which is no different than the author spitting in people's faces; he knew it and didn't care, especially when the Het wasn't that much of a part of the plot or what pertains to the story.

No one mentioned that this was getting a physical release!?!

>>4497283>longstrip to printI love amy in book format would actually work, huh. It doesn't have as much obnoxious white space as the typical toilet paper.
>>4497321The other 2 I own physically (no so shoujo and pulse) work similarly well
>>4497321We already told you the white space is padding for digital and most of it is removed from volume releases

>>4497315I love how ridiculously romantic this series can be.

>>4497337TRVTHNVKΣ
>>4497461Can't I respond when we're talking about a clearly yuri series, with yuri undertones and with female characters who act from affectionate to possessive towards each other?
>>4497493You don't gain anything from talking to a monkey who can't understand a word you're saying.
>>4497337sexsome ending?
>>4494515>see a post about alien 9 pop up on my feed, >its a yuri(?) doujin they made 25 years ago, when they were the authors assistant, with artwork that looks just like the authors. They also made an unreleased doujin spin-off>oh cool, i wonder who this is and what else they've done>turns out its the fucking grotesque watamote monster futa dude i already had blocked on my other accountSmall world where the actual assistant to one of your favorite series from 25 years ago is now the dude who draws the worst futa trash you've ever seen in your life on twitter, while the actual author has practically gone dark.Really a shame that the series ended on a cliff hanger 3 chapters in to a failed sequel manga that just uses screenshots of 3D models for the art. anti-climactic end to the series legacy, and will probably never be followed up on
>>4497538I wish fingerless gloves would make a comeback.
>>4497538Looked it up and it's actually a futa doujin. Anon, I am disappoint
In other words degenerate futafag was always a degenerate futafag
>>4494391>>4494515>Revolutionary Utena>Magical Girl Shartenot yuri>everything elseyuri
>>4496670>Takagi SanThe author made a romcom with 100% female cast and lots of yuribaiting. Yet somehow it isn't yuri. He still managed to cram hetshit into the plot of a story with 100% female cast. It's incredible. He's got to be up there among the most disgusting degenerate hetshitters known to humankind (not counting abusers, sexual assault, or trafficking perpetrators though).
>>4497682Wrong
>>4497692
>>4497685It takes a special skill to not have male characters and still manage to make everything Het in some way and any possible yuri is nothing more than a bad joke.
>>4497693Whoever you are, please never stop posting this image.
>>4496825Can I be honest and say I think that the setting of most yuri is what turns a lot of people away?There are so many manga and anime series where the girls are high school age dealing with unexpected feelings for the first time and the whole >b-b-but we're both girls!thing. I love it and have read a lot of it but it's also all people see which I think makes them feel like yuri is boring. I think if there were more action oriented stuff, people would be interested in it. At the very least, more stuff where the protagonists are in university or above?
>>4497787Well I'm okay with people who think "holy shit I'm gay" and whatnot is boring because that means a lot of it just isn't for them and never will be. That's fine.But if we could get like, Magirevo but with really good action, or LycoReco/PriPri/whatever but gayer, I'd be totally down for that. There's a lot of people into stuff like Symphogear who wouldn't call themselves yurifags but still enjoyed the relationships between the characters and considered them gay, that's fine too.
>>4497787That kinda sounds like playing a Call of Duty game and complaining it has guns
>>4496825Why is lewd bad?
>>4496670Not an anime but newest most popular het romcom have two girls that are fake dating or something, and since it's a romcom and they are love interests I know how it would goMade me seethe just from hearing about it
>>4497798Exactly. I'm not saying we need to completely ditch the medium of high school slow burn romance "holy shit I'm gay" stuff, but I think we need more action yuri too. Honestly I wish series like symphogear and lycoreco would actually go all in on the yuri, even if it's at the end, instead of chickening out.
>>4496825It seems you've grouped several different opinions from several different groups into your post and pretended they all come from the same people to make them seem contradictory and ridiculous.
>>4497801it's more like if cod had no different classes, everyone kinda just did the same thing with guns that all felt similar, if not the same. The few guns that stand out end up being ones that the community really loves but the game is so full of one type of gun that most people don't get to appreciate the other types. All people see is stuff like Citrus, Bloom Into You, Green Yuri, Adachi to Shimamura, and even though these are mostly good if not great, but I feel like people only get to see the slow burn high school romance stuff instead of stuff like Love Bullet, Gundam Witch (even though it's just confirmed at the end), Otherside Picnic, The Executioner and her Way of Life, Murcielango, Roll Over and Die, Alcohol and Ogre-Girls, etc. Action yuri is good but I feel it just gets talked about a lot less and so people get the impression that all yuri is the same slow-burn high school romance stuff.
>>4497808I don't think anon was saying those all came from one person, just that there's a lot of whiners when it comes to yuri so people play it extremely safe with their works to try to appease everyone but it's like they say, "When you try to appeal to everyone, you often end up appealing to no one"
>>4497811Nah, op deliberately formatted it as a dialogue so that those opinions look like the replies coming from the same person/group to make them seem unreasonable and whiny.>made up calm and reasonable offer>hhhuurrr ungrateful annoying strawman response!>made up calm and reasonable offer>hhhuurrr ungrateful annoying strawman response!>made up calm and reasonable offer>hhhuurrr ungrateful annoying strawman response!etcWow, what a bunch of ungrateful naggers!
>>4497819I guess I didn't really interpret it that way but even if that is the case, I think if you picture it as different groups who have those opinions and complain, it's not an unreasonable opinion. I think every author probably has people like that but I think the stakes are higher for yuri authors since they don't always sell the greatest. I could see where authors might accidentally make a bland story because they play it too safe and try to appeal to everyone.
>>4497787That's not a setting (or age) problem, it's genre. SoL high school stuff is MOST anime and it does fine. It's that romance as a genre is relative low-appeal and yuri (and yaoi, to be fair) get hit double because the nature of their identity (same-sex attraction) means they are predisposed to be about romance but the audience for that genre is typically self-inserting straight women and men. >more stuff where the protagonists are in university or aboveThis would perform even worse. It's the same audience but narrowing the appeal even more.
>>4497810>Het Bulletleave
>>4497826I think it is kinda a genre problem. I feel like yuri is so saturated with SoL that people don't realize how much variety there is. It's like I said below, you look up "popular yuri" and you'll get almost nothing but recommendations for slice of life high school romance stuff. Which, those series aren't bad usually but it gives the impression that yuri is boring because that's all people ever hear about. Take something like "This Monster Wants to Eat Me" it's a horror series about a suicidal girl and yokai that are all trying to devour her. It's been one of the most popular anime's this season though, because it's different. It doesn't come across as a simple slice of life. I feel like yuri needs more of that sort of thing to really show people that there's a lot more to it than just two high school girls falling in love for the first time.
>>4497787>>4497826>>4497829The thing is, those are very different audiences. And we are seeing this with how many ongoing fantasy yuri titles are now, some with a lot of volumes, the people buying yuri romances are mostly not buying those and the people buying yuri fantasy are also mostly not buying yuri romances, the reason YH struggled with their fantasy series is because they can't reach those audiences. Though it's very possible we will see some of those fantasy series getting anime adaptation which will help people see that there exists more types of yuri out there.
>>4497819>replies coming from the same person/group to make them seem unreasonable and whiny.Because they are. People that complain about about yuri being too [X] will also say they didn't like yuri without [X]
>>4497829>I feel like yuri needs more of that sort of thing to really show people that there's a lot more to it than just two high school girls falling in love for the first time.The problem isn't that yuri doesn't cover a wide range of things, it's more that people who know nothing about the genre or even anime in general pretend they know something and mostly just complain stupidly based on their own ignorance.I've seen people in such stupid denial, for example, you have two ridiculously gay precure series like Kira Kira or Maho, and these people simply deny that it's even gay despite having official confirmation, real basis, and fanservice thrown in people's faces, but instead glorifying "Het" made with their asses, but when you debate with these people, they don't have a fucking clue what they're talking about. Now apply that stupidity to the general public and you'll understand that the problem isn't yuri, but stupid people.
>>4497900>Anon is talking about yuri works>Brings up shit for toddlers which is only in his mind
>>4497905
>>4497905It's the sakifag ESL, he replies based on whatever he can lean from machine translations, and then writes machine-translated drivel in response.
>>4497831
>>4497802I don't think it's bad. It's great to see women portrayed with healthy sex drives. Or in most Korean manhua, the plots are dictated by how horny everyone is. I just simply do not like hearing men talk about how much it turns them on
>>4496825I hate to bring them up, but you're specifically talking with trannies who transitioned because they fetishize lesbians and they either want pure maiden yuri (because they're men) or ultra toxic yuri (which is how vns like Mal Maid get made)
>>4496824>if it really harms anythingIt harms me because I am tired of going to people who post that shit and go "who cares lol" when told there's an entire genre to be catered to>hard cap due to the cultural perception around homosexualityWhich is why as Yuri Aunties, it's your solemn duty to get women into the genre before the Fujos do
>>4497685This feels like when women were banned from writing Shoujo back in the early 20th century and all the plots went from exploring girl hood to trying to find a man.Insidious shit
>>4499129>>4499134>>4499135Clownish behaviour.
