Have you read volume 13? Did you like it?
>>4585108Absent any sudden progress between our leads, Iruka is certainly our best chance at /u/ in the short to medium term. It was very cruel of the author not to have Mika visit her properly at the hospital.Although I guess I don't remember if which vol. that was.
I somehow missed this show when it was airing but as somebody that specifically likes yuri between flat/young/loli girls, how yuri is this? I'm okay with subtext as long as there's no incidents of them crushing on guys. Are there any other pairings besides the main two? I'll probably at least give the first few episodes of the first season a shot but I just don't want to get too far into it and then have something bad happen.
>>4590585This series is basically what people who know nothing about Idolm@ster adaptations think Idolm@ster adaptations are. That says it all. I don't deny the yuri, but I don't hide the reality of this series.
>>4590590So uh, what does that mean then? Do they end up crushing on the teacher guy or some other guy?
>>4590594>> Do they end up crushing on the teacher guy or some other guy?That's why I said that what people "think" isn't necessarily the whole truth. The relationship between the girls and their coach is extremely important to both characters. That doesn't mean it's romantic, but the Hetfags lack logic. The relationship between the two girls is less prominent than you might expect or than people might lead you to believe.Expect anything in the end; this is one of those cases where people shouldn't expect what hasn't been promised to them.
>>4590599If the relationship between the coach is platonic then that's fine, I don't mind male characters existing or anything. But if there's stuff like wanting to marry them or constantly calling them hot then that's pushing it too much. It's not a romance series and I'm not expecting kisses or anything "official", just some nice moments here or there between the girls. Light subtext is fine with me.
>>4590609Wait so its barely even subtext? Crazy that this is getting this much yuri art at all...
>>4611088Just wait until the manga does something really stupid Season 2 of the anime lacked interactions between them and the other girls with their trainers and things could go downhill fast. People might like the pairing, but they can't pretend the series is more yuri than it actually is. Ideally, nothing foolish will happen, but considering how series like Hōrō Musuko and Usagi Drop were ruined at the end, anything is
>>4611088The two girls are basically obsessed with each other. It isn't really depicted as something romantic, it's more that the MC has made it her goal in life to become a better figure skater than the black-haired girl. And the black-haired girl matches that energy and is equally obsessed with seeing the MC become as good as she possibly can. So, in essence, there are a lot of emotions flying around, and it's pretty easy to see how those emotions could become romantic. (But that won't happen, because it's a sports manga, not a romance story.)
