This girl will be the yuri queen soon

Good day to /u/, the Summer Cup is almost here and as such our team needs your help to get some need blood on the team considering how pack was Spring season for Yuri.

Also, we will have a music poll If you have some ideas for the roster, music or even just for chants you can find the link to drop them to us down below.

>>4436101 (OP)
I posted this in the wrong thread earlier, so I guess I'll try again here.
Who is your favourite /u/ mangaka/creator?
Now, I'm not talking about stories or characters. Just visually and artistically speaking, who do you think has or had the best art out of all the /u/ creators out there?

>>4436684
yeah, yuri cuckquean that is

>>4436858
Tamasaki Tama

>>4436858
>>4436970
>Just visually and artistically speaking,
Sorry I didn't see this.
Probably Itou8

>>4436101 (OP)
Renako discovering she's pregnant and not knowing which of her girlfriends did it.

>>4436979
The only one with the money to fund such a thing is Mai, unless Satsuki stole it and impregnated Renako so now Mai will be forced to raise Satsuki's children.

>>4436979
Did Teren took the Omegaverse pill?

Is there a yuri about platonic friendship between two lesbians?
And I mean like real platonic PLATONIC, purely platonic friendship. Not something like "We tried having sex with each other long tamago, but now we're just friends".
Something where two girls are just friends, they're attracted to girls but not attracted to each other.
Something like—for lack of a better word (may madokami sama forgive me for uttering this word)—platonic friendship between hetsluts.

>>4437154
It doesn't start that way but the current arc of "sorry I'm not into yuri has this in spades"

>>4437154
>platonic friendship between hetsluts.
"Hetsluts" fool around with each other all the time, since women are virtually bi.
Now imagine that but with lesbians.
>fools around
>gets horny
>"hey, why don't we just fuck?"
>have sex
>catshes feelings
>"wanna try to date?"
Difficult stay platonic.

>>4437160
What if they're not each other's type? Maybe they see themselves having sex with each other, but not falling in love with each other.

>>4437154
these two are pretty good
I enjoy their dynamic

Takeshima Eku

>>4436858
For me, it's Kinniku Tarou.
I like the way he draws intimacy that's detailed but also isn't for the viewer's pleasure.
Also the funny expressions

>>4437154
The developers of the VN series that includes Ne No Kami and Watashitachi Marriage are obsessed with that platonic friendship between lesbians, you should check out their works.

>>4436858
Artistically speaking for me it's gotta be Hiro. His bucolic backgrounds especially are ridiculously beautiful.

>>4437154
Isn't this most love triangle/rival yuri? The rival likes someone other than the MC, but are on friendly terms with them?
Or just Yuri series that have more than one pair who all hang out together?

Unless you want like an entire series with the two of them as the focal focus.

>>4437154
Technically OshiRabu has this, although the BFFs own gayness doesn't come up much and they bond over BL so...

>>4436983
Satsuki would do this and then jealously hover and seethe when the kids call her aunt.

Season is ending. Was there anything worth checking out besides Ninkoro?

>>4437295
Aru Majo and Rock wa Lady were okay. Not super gay or anything, just a few moments here and there, but they were fun shows.
Uma Musume S4 was great but it had even fewer gay moments, even if Oguri seems to capture the heart of every mare she comes across.
Then there was Slime Taoshite S2 (bland isekai with some yuri gags), and Mono (Yuru Camp at home in every aspect).

What are your thoughts on Asumi-chan getting cancelled by twitter? Specifically the claim that sex work is paid rape.

>>4437303
Is it being cancelled by japanese twitter or futaba adjacent sites?
Otherwise, it's just pointless arguments that will lead nowhere and are best left ignored.

>>4437303
>>4437307
Xitter weirdoes got offended by Asumi-chan being popular on Tik Tok, yes that's all.

>>4437308
I figured Asumi would be way too lewd to be allowed on TikTok.

>>4437311
Exposure to hyper-sexualized content is the main way to groom kids these days. As a result, porn posting - both ironic and not - has become common place in social media sites.
Why do you think most online conversations these days boil down to sex and porn? The general population has been so brain-fucked by PsyOPs that it's practically all they can think of.

>>4437303
>getting cancelled by twitter
What year do you think it is?

>>4437318
>Why do you think most online conversations these days boil down to sex and porn?
>these days
Zoomer-chan...

>>4437297
>Mono (Yuru Camp at home in every aspect).
Yuru camp was pretty non-yuri so I guess that's a skip

>>4437318
Sounds awful. Back in my day kids used to be groomed on 4chan.

>>4437329
oh you are one of those

>>4437303
What they should worry about is protection of sex workers' right. Which is in an awful shape right now.

>>4437297
You forgot HibiMeshi. The subtext can be too light for /u/'s standards but the official social media of the anime acknownledged at least one ship so it's kind of obvious that those moments were there for a reason.

What shows are there for next season? Obviously Watanare and Bad Girl are the big ones, but I've noticed these ones as potentially relevant:

Necronomico no Cosmic Horror Show
KAMITSUBAKI-shi Kensetsuchuu.
Ruri no Houseki
Food Court de, Mata Ashita.
Turkey!

>>4437341
That's something really important, because usually those people ignore it at best or deny it at worst, so it's a good thing that at least one couple is mentioned, and they are a really good couple by the way.

>>4437325
I don't think you fully understand the scope and the consequences of a post 2010 internet space.

>>4437347
>Necronomico no Cosmic Horror Show
Idolshit you know the drill
>KAMITSUBAKI-shi Kensetsuchuu.
Does the VN features a male self insert?
>Ruri no Houseki
The manga is not very subtexty, but the anime may make it gayer.
>Food Court de, Mata Ashita.
Explicit not yuri with the girls even trying to date guys, the author also said it will never be romantic between them.
>Turkey!
Has potential.

>>4437359
>Idolshit
????
Isn't it about vtubers?

>>4437360
It's the same shit anon, idolshit, bandshit, vtubershit, they are produced in the exactly same way for the exactly same audiences.

>>4437362
NTA. So that's why it's being made by one of those "idol" companies.
>It has a very obvious and standard "ome girl does x to save other girl" plot from the trailers
>It also has relevant male characters
It looks that this will bomb like the male version of Bandori.

>>4437362
That's blatantly wrong no matter how confidently you display your ignorance.

>>4437347
This season has been so busy (had to drop an anime for the first time in ages because I couldn't keep up with everything) I'm honestly looking forward to watching less anime for a while.
Just Bad Girl and maybe 1-2 others that end up being good.

>>4437318
That makes no sense at all. If this is true, why do social media sites ban anything even remotely related to sex? Why do tiktokbrained-children constantly censor themselves like they're in a goddamned morning cartoon? Why is the younger generation pathologically prudish and prone to fly off the handle at the smallest mention of sexuality?
This sounds like a conspiracy theory from a basement-dwelling schizo.

You know
It's been a LONG time since we've had actual yuri in movie quality.
A proper theatrical release just has so much more....everything planned into it besides just animation frames.

>>4437362
>>4437360
You made me rewatch the trailer and it doesn't look that bad, even if it feels a little too close to Mayonaka Punch for my taste. The guys are monsters or some tech support guy, I've seen some potential skinship between the MC and another blonde girl in the team and the mistery of the hospitalized friend looks interesting enough to me.

>>4437341
>>4437348
I'm catching up with this, and I have to say that I'm enjoying it more than the other yuri-friendly shows PA Works did.
Makure is such a nice surprise.

>>4437362
That's the typical stupid logic that leads to pointless collaborations, that's why you have people who can't see the huge difference between a harem/romcom of a SOL series or an all-girls series, it's not the same and it doesn't work the same, but the executives see everything the same.

>>4437373
NTA but I kinda agree with that anon and I think what you are describing is a natural response to what he described, the so called counter culture that happens every generation shift, while the previous generations may have seen it as liberating, the newer one who grew with this over exposure to sexual content became paranoid over it, you pick 15 years ago and no one would be giving a shit about whores, much less equating it to rape.

>>4437339
>What they should worry about is protection of sex workers' right. Which is in an awful shape right now.
Seriously. All that energy needs to be channeled there

>>4437381
That still doesn't explain how social media sites can be "full of porn" when they ban it, and the massive contradiction between "all everyone thinks right now is sex" and "everyone hates sex now".
Not to mention the use of the terms psyop and "grooming kids", which are giveaways for schizos.

Is there yuri that doesnt focus on the romance? I really liked shimeji simulation

>>4437377
It's a pleasant experience, although we also have to give credit to PA Works for making these SOL series with adult characters and it's even better when they are yuri friendly.

Overall, HibiMeshi makes Mono's downward spiral more bearable. I've never seen an anime betray its own premise so quickly in favor of cheap references and tourism (not even Jashin-chan fell so low).

>>4437390
Don't you know what reddit, discord, whatsapp and bluesky are (which is even one of the main reasons the later failed to take off, since everyone was being flooded with NSFW shit on their feeds)? Hell you can find sex even stuff for kids like Roblox. Grooming has become such a common word everyone uses nowadays I am not sure why it's making your personally upset about it, it's a widely recognized issue.

>>4437393
Yes? Read stuff from kirara. Even Bad Girl which is airing in two weeks is mostly CGDCT dynamics under a gay context rather than a romance series.

>>4437393
Otherside Picnic is more about the adventures than the heroines' relationship.

>>4437399
Half true, the first 5 volumes, the last 4 volumes are pretty much all about their relationship.

>>4437397
>Grooming has become such a common word everyone uses nowadays I am not sure why it's making your personally upset about it
It's precisely because everyone uses it. It's become a trite word, the modern day equivalent of "they're killing/eating/raping our kids!"
Every time a word becomes über common like this, you can bet that most people that use it don't actually know what it means, they just see others using it and jump the bandwagon like unthinking lemmings. "Gaslighting" suffered a similar fate.

>>4437401
Sure, but it's not a schizo word, you could make this point about psyop, but even false flag is used by normies nowadays.

>“If I had a…friend who might die…,” she said, her voice hoarse from emotion.
>The expression on her face changed to something I’d never seen before—her eyes filled with sorrow, and darkness fell on her face like the moon in shadow.
>“I’d hate myself, but I’d want to run away.”
>“…If I ran away, they’d follow me. Slowly, on unsteady feet, but they’d follow. Even if they might never catch up to me, they’d keep on walking in my direction… I’d only feel bad for trying to get away.”
>She was watering it down, her words only skimming the surface. She probably wasn’t aware I could see tears welling up in her eyes, high enough to spill if she shook from a sob. I’d seen her make others cry, but never her crying.
>…I envied her. She had someone who’d want to follow her, someone who wanted her. She’d been living her life better than I ever could.
>“I hope someday you won’t feel the need to run anymore,” I said to her.
“>I hope so…,” she replied quietly, but then she had second thoughts. “No, actually…what I should be hoping for is for that person to not die.”
>The sadness in her smile told me her wish had slim chances of realization.
>“Of course,” I agreed nonetheless.
>“Shimamura,” I said, and she turned in surprise. “I hope school gets a bit more fun for you.”
>I wished her well, even though I’d lost hope for myself. My own life at school was an empty husk I knew I was going to hate crawling back into again.
>Shimamura smiled at me in the serene way she must have acquired since starting high school.
“It’s been a while since someone called me by my surname.”

Reminder Shimamura is a miserable person.

>>4437399
>>4437400
I dont mind a focus on the relationship later on, ill check it out, thanks!

I think I like yuri but im not that big on the romance genre

>>4437409
You can also read action/fantasy yuri series too, those usually don't focus on the romance either.

Imouto is a plaything of Lily harem

>>4437395
Yeah, I agree. I love how they've embraced the ship. Compared to how the other girls interact, you can feel there's something special between them. They definitely know what they're doing.

>>4437391
>yuru yuri

>>4437303
Why hasn't Madoka been cancelled on Xitter? Homura is like 40 years old mentally due to all the time looping, still in love with her middleschool crush

>>4437303
Who gives a fuck, those people worship Love Bullet. You're not meant to take them seriously.

>>4437425
We're talking about Akari, anything that isn't Watanare levels of gayness and polyamory isn't yuri to that little self-inserter.

>>4437427
Twitter only cares about cancelling recent things, their attention span is limited to last 3 years.

>>4437303
I think this kind of post should be a bannable offense!!
Fuck OFF about your dipshit twitter shit!!!

Asumi and Senpai in Asumi-chan is interested in Lesbian Brothels are this, they don't take up a whole lot of screentime together but when they do it's as two gay buddies who sometimes havea drink together and do normal things like frequent brothels

Has getting "cancelled" ever negatively affect manga sales at all

>>4437420
Wait. Tina, what are you doing with your left hand?

What's the name of that manga that ended(?) with one with the girls coming to see the other girl at one of those small japanese apartment buildings?

And it's not the teacher/student one with a lot of sex.

Pretty much every fantasy/adventure 'yuri' work

>>4437680
I've read the first two volumes of this series and it's already great! I'm looking forward to these two reuniting, and yes I've seen on /u/ that this series isn't really yuri and that shipping is up to the individual so I'm not getting my hopes up unrealistically.
Thank you, /u/ for making threads and posting about this so I would take an interest!

>>4437780
It really is a great manga with wonderful worldbuilding and characters. Be sure to look up the New Adventurer's Bible world guide when you've finished it, there's lots of interesting things there.

>>4437611
It ends in yuri (and yaoi) cope

>>4437807
>It ends in yuri
Unless you read the bonus chapter.

>>4437813
The bonus chapter is yaoi, but it was published in a yaoi magazine so duh.

>>4437596
it's...i dont know
the scene of the one girl looking up at the other girl in the apartment building (again, its those small like...6 unit apartment buildings) took place at night i think

I wonder if the reason they never put it on MD is cause the scanlator was triggered by how it ruined everything.

>>4437821
But blue hair is het, she said she wants to be with a man some episodes back.

>>4437822
Netzusou Trap was Kodama Naoko "deconstructing" Kodama Naoko manga so it reached it's more realistic conclusion, there's a reason as to why Kodama's stories after NTR were less unhinged than the previous ones.

>>4437836
>more realistic conclusion
i suppose you could say yuri is unrealistic, but the story was nothing but unrealistically forced melodrama, all that bonus chapter accomplished was invalidating the conclusion that was finally reached, rendering the entire thing just a pointless display of plot-inducedstupidity

>>4437840
I think Hotaru's sincere love for Yuma was quite sweet

>>4437840
That's the realistic, no, logical conclusion to the unrealistic forced melodrama that characterized Kodama's stories before NTR. I'm glad that it happened because we got better yuri from her but it was a waste of resources to make a anime for that type of story.

>>4437841
it would've certainly been if it wasn't soured by a mountain of angst with no payoffwhatsoever, instead it just left me feeling like i wanted my time back
>>4437842
>the story was so stupid that only an equally stupid ending could fit it
well, that's one waytolookatit, it achieved consistency in being a terrible manga all throughout

>>4437813
Are you talking about the Late Winter doujin? That was just mistranslated.

>>4437845
Well at least we got that nice panel of them having slept together and Hotaru is sadly looking at Yuma sleeping, I liked that energy. God Yuma was a fucking retard though.

>>4437846
really? what's the correct translation?

>>4437850
The "if we were" should be "if they were", and "I'd end up pretty lonely" is the wrong nuance too.
The doujin was Yuma noticing how Hotaru doesn't give a shit about making friends or about her dysfunctional family situation, and Yuma thinks it would be better for Hotaru if that eventually changed so that Hotaru did care about other people (in addition to her, not rather than her) and it doesn't matter whether that's friends or family. But Yuma also, selfishly, would feel "lonely" just in the sense of no longer having Hotaru to herself if that happened.

>>4437852
that would definitely sound better, maybe even that author wasn't dumb enough to end things on those terms after putting the readers through such torment to reach the conclusion

>>4437833
Don't reply to Mugino.

Shouldn't that kind of pretentious stuff be reserved for famous authors in a relevant genre? It feels pointless to do it for the few people who buy this niche's stuff.
It's kind of like Yuri Kuma Arashi, which I like, but was too weird. Why not just make something simple and good instead...

>>4437859
>>Why not just make something simple and good instead...
Then you wouldn't have people pretending to understand something they don't, so they can feel smarter than everyone else.

>>Shouldn't that kind of pretentious stuff be reserved for famous authors in a relevant genre?
You can be pretentious regardless of fame, in fact it's even better if you're less famous, that way you become known for the wrong reasons.

I still find it funny when Hina Logi became a trending topic on Blue Bird's website after it turned out the anime was (obviously) yuri and someone casually mentioned there was a yuri series airing at the time (NTR) and it seemed like most people didn't know that.

>>4437859
>Shouldn't that kind of pretentious stuff be reserved for famous authors in a relevant genre?
You can do it if you already wrote a lot of stories and have kind of stagnated in your narrative. Either way those things aren't planned and just happen when a author realizes that the thing they're writing can't have the outcome they wanted because that will ruin the story.

>>4437853
She literally hasn't in any of her yuri works except the one about the mangaka which was just subtext

Kino

NTR Trap is just kodama putting extreme shoujo/josei tropes into a yuri manga, the passive protagonist who gets molested by the other protagonist, the nice guy who is getting cucked, the shitty guy who still gets away with the shit he does, the yaoi undertones. Since then Kodama herself has matured a lot, her last series may have been short but handled a lot of themes in ways far more relatable do adults.

I just found out the highly anticipated and overrated slop Death Stranding 2 has a guest cameo by Mamoru Osshii, whom as you know created the dogshit bait series Vlad Love

And it made me remember I"m still mad at how this series turned out

>>4438315
No one cares about your hang ups.

>>4438315
Get a trip so I can filter you.

>>4438315
Who cares? Why do you complain instead of writing some fanfic if you like the ship?

really disappointed in how little /u/ content is trickling out of Clair Obscure: Expedition 33

>>4438357
Doesn't that have no canon yuri?

>>4438369
So?

>>4438374
So why are you surprised by this?

>>4438375
I didn't post it, and I'm not surprised. There's barely any yuri content for anything anyway. Least not fandoms that don't have anything canon, unfortunately.

>>4438375
because over half the cast are attractive ladies, that's usually more than enough to get some content, pic posted is pretty much the only half decent /u/ stuff I've found, it isn't even getting any ai slop

How do I stop HATING romance that isn't yuri? It's gotten to the point where I wouldn't touch anything that involved a bit of it.

Remove autism from brain.

>>4438524
nothing wrong with that.
for the last 2 decades ,other than news & academia, i only consume yuri media.

>>4438524
Why would you want to?
But real advice, probably just watch something legitimately good. Most relationships outside of yuri are very shallow, just look for one you can genuinely support. It might not be that you don't like it but just that they all suck (and that yuri is better).

Does your avoidance of hetshit apply to non-weeb media like books, live-action movies and TV shows too?

Yes but I can tolerate it if it's ignorable. For weebshit I get actively triggered at every level.

>something legitimately good
>with hetshit
Does not compute.

>>4438535
I don't avoid it that religiously in weeb media either, at least when it comes to anime or VNs (there's just way too much manga and LNs for me to read anything that's not laser targeted to my tastes). Generally speaking I don't consume things that are primarily het romance, but if it's e.g. good sci-fi then I don't care regardless of medium. I'm also big on tokusatsu for decades now, and yuri there is sadly a very, very rare guest.
I do almost religiously refuse playing video games with male protagonists though. Not sure why it's specifically video games where it irks me the most. Super Robot Wars is a rare exception.

>>4438566
Gonna be some relatively obscure thing, or we would've already known.

>>4438619
To be fair about Super Robot Wars: Z3 was the last non-OG main game to force a male MC on you. V, X , T, 30, Y all let you choose a male or female OG as your MC

>>4438623
Name 10 "obscure" titles that have enough material for anime adaptation

>>4438626
Yeah, I'm glad it became more of a thing. Even back in J for the GBA I loved playing as Calvina, even if sadly much of the plot revolves around her former husband. At least I could be a little delusional about her harem of adopted daughters that piloted the main robot together with her.

>>4438623
The only reason we know things beforehand is because Sugoi leaks it dumbass

Usa Haneda's Yuri Light Novel "A Story About Buying My Classmate Once A Week" (Shuu ni Ichido Classmate wo Kau Hanashi) will be receiving an ANIME ADAPTATION
https://x.com/sugoilite/status/1937886015806648550?s=46&t=qYNhWHYM8lTpInKb0uau4w
And that’s leak 4

>>4438566
Well, I guess I'm satisfied. Although the chances of a satisfying adaptation are about zero.
https://x.com/SugoiLITE/status/1937886015806648550

>>4438662
I don't belive it.

>>4438662
Sulemio...

>>4438568
You can live!!

>>4438662
While I'm happy for the author, it's one of those serie that I really don't think it's work well in others media other than ln, the manga just proved it too me, but still, happy for the author.

>>4438662
HOLY SHIT

>>4438662
I hope this is not some type of prank because FUCK YEAH BEST NEWS EVER!!!!

>>4438693
It's the same leaker who leaked almost everything you heard

>>4438535
Yea it has gotten to that point for me. If the series is non romantic I can tolerate it, otherwise no

>>4438662
>it will end before they start living together
Missing the best part of the series but nevertheless an exteremely good news.

>>4438675
A very good writer and director would somehow make something out of it, but yeah, most of the story is the two of them being in the same room without talking and we read their thoughts so it won't turn out well in the anime format but again, it depens on the staff.

>>4438663
>the chances of a satisfying adaptation are about zero
Why? I don't see any info about the studio or staff, it may pull a KimiShinu.

Yeah, who wants to see a girl licking the feet of another girl animated? Please passione pick this up.

omaegotoki sisters, is it all over for us?

>>4438713
>it depens on the staff.
They should just do the school arc in 3-4 eps and use the rest for the university arc, that's where the serie really start anyway.

>>4438713
>most of the story is without talking and we read their thoughts
Damn, I'm already getting Otherside Picnic anime PTSD just from reading this. The anime cutting out Sorawo's substantial inner monologue really damaged the experience.

>>4438713
>pull a KimiShinu
The foot-licking scenes animated better than the industry average, is indeed wonderful, but I am also interested in whether the adaptation will be able to convey the feelings of loneliness, insecurity, melancholy, longing that ooze from every page of the novel. And I have serious doubts not even about whether they will find a director capable of doing this, but whether they will set themselves the goal of finding a director capable of doing this.
Anyway, you said it yourself in your post a paragraph above.

>>4438721
Do you think someone like you could get an anime adaptation?

>>4438721
>>4438739
? Omae Gotoki anime was already announced, it seems the first trailer will be show on the 29 of this month

All the yuri anime we know for beyond the upcoming season

>>4438750
A feast1

>>4438750
A feast!

>>4438755
>>4438756
The Adashimazation of yuri.

>>4438750
Is this victory? It feels like victory.

>>4438765
Yeah, one more of those "victories" and the genre's finished

>>4438697
I know but when it's so good I get nervous.
>>4438535
Yeah. I was watching the latest Cunk and there was a het sex scene out of nowhere. I just dropped it right there. I can't deal with it anymore.

>>4438524
There is good or at least decent Het romance, the problem is that it is super scattered and is never found in the supposed romance series, but in quite rare places like G Gumdam or R-15 (seriously) although that can make you hate Het even more, when you realize how bad or mediocre it is as an element most of the times it is used.

At this point, and at least for the past two decades, yuri is superior.

>>4438662
This is literally, Shimamura doing nonconsentual things on Adachi...

>>4438315
Watch Mayonaka Punch, similar premisa but more yuri

>>4438756
I should know these 2 but I cant remember them

>>4438766
Yuri will heal naturally if given time to grow.

>>4438755
>>4438756
This honestly serves as a pretty good guess-the-series image but for yuri, it's pretty tough. I can name all of them except the first, second (reverse 1999 if i had to guess), and fourth in the 2nd image.

>>4438817
the 4th one in the second image is strikingly familiar but i cant put my finger on it.

>>4438662
I'm so happy

>>4438817
>>4438835
>second
I forgot the name of the series, but the girls worked in aquariums.

>>4438837
The second half of the image not the first half

>>4438766
Care to elaborate?

>>4438839
There's nothing good left to adapt that aren't sequels. They aren't gonna pick up the completed series either.

>>4438846
ynnynynnynynnn

>>4438846
Yes, as we all know they stopped making yuri and anime production takes only a few weeks

>>4438846
Asumi-chan needs an anime too

>>4438846
In a post Solo Leveling and To be hero X (I didnt watch either) world

It's time to adapt Korean GL and Chinese Baihe webcomics

>>4438750
are we still pretending shokuba is yuri?

There are a lot of good yuri series left to adapt, but the only big LN I can think that still needs one is Otherside Picnic. Hopefully that happens at some point.

>>4438865
A-Anon, I...

>>4438861
Sorry I don't know which series you are talking about?

https://x.com/MGUJapan/status/1937707322920567253

yuri status?

Hopefully Iruma's sensei LN is so popular it gets anime and then they also adapt My First Love kiss, so we have Adashima prequel and sequel adapted to complete the trilogy.

>>4438872
But I thought Iruma was cancelled? Why is he allowed to make stuff?

>>4438875
Well anon, turns out a certain group of very weird men in the US cannot scream loud enough they can be heard from Japan. And I suspect some US publishers are also starting to suddenly go deaf because otherwise they are going to end without a business.

>>4438875
We love pedo Adachi here

>>4438881
And this version of Adachi actually got married to her Shimamura (though only on the extra on Iruma's blog).

>>4438871
>made by a furfag with zero yuri background
Waste of time.

>>4438881
>responsible adult Adachi
#NotMyAdachi

>>4438889
Adachi is a responsible teenager who works you retard and she gets paid much better than Shimamura later on too.

The kitakawa anime will be shadowdropped.

>>4438857
>Korean
baeghab

>>4438869
I think Shaft should take a crack at it since they've given up on Madoka.

>>4438895
Sounds like a phlegm noise.

Just notice that Yachiyo is Ponko cheating patner

>>4438865
It would be lovely to see Sorawo getting excited over Toriko masturbating animated. What a silly little goober she is.

>>4438774
>nonconsentual
It's a fair monetary transaction that both sides agreed to

>>4438777
It was Medalist

I saw a hetslut the other day. Horrible creatures.

>>4438817
First in the 2nd image is Minori and Haruka from Project Sekai

>>4438919
I understand the Yuri Guild is hiring new members. Not bad work for some folks.

>>4438919
ESfag, what would you do if there were an elder scrolls anime. Tell this one the truth.
Racist dark elf x n'wah?

>>4438916
Miyagi didn't know it would include violent rape

>>4438924
She should have read the fine print.

>>4438919
Eri is shit. I know.

>>4438891
yeah it's really annoying how people dismiss that Adachi can work in society just fine like a normal person, she just doesn't have anything she truly likes other than Shimamura and Water

>>4436101 (OP)
Reading the WataNare LN right now and I like it but some of the translation leaves a lot to be desired, I hope Renako doesn't keep saying 'You feel me?' in the anime adaptation. Part of me feels like despite being the source, the Manga is prob the best version of this story purely for the better showing of the series visual humour, like the scene where Mai saves Renako from falling off the roof, it just didn't hit as hard without that elegant pose she does in the PV for the anime.

>>4438931
She kinda... can't. At least not as a teenager, she has a whole basketball team who hates her after all. If you read My First Love Kiss you see how much in a bad place Shimamura was before meeting Adachi.

>>4438817
fourth in second pic seems to be dressed like a dancer to me.

Do people hate Mai Oduka here too?

>>4438948
yes, and watanare in general

>>4438662
>woke up to this

sorry, they will keep SuleMio's voices

>>4438951
I can imagine an Itou Miku Sendai

>>4438949
Of course /u/ hates fun

>>4438951
Nope, it's got to be Sulemio.

>>4438935
Wym?
In Novelist Adachi × Actress Shimamura, she started working when she's like 15, in her first year of highschool

>>4438961
Well yeah, because circumstances changed for both of them in that what if, Shimamura is a depressive mess in the original timeline, she literally meets someone asking her what she would do if someone she knew told her she was going to die and Shimamura answer is so depressive she is the one who ends being consoled.

>>4438662
Disappointing

The manga was really.......dry

>>4438971
You will always have boku no pico anon

>>4438971
the manga adaptation literally JUST started....

>>4438974
The manga adaptation has been ongoing for like a year now

>>4438971
Looks pretty wet to me

>>4438750
NIGRO!
Wheres is Watanere?!!!

>>4438976
Watayuri has been on hiatus longer than the shuukura manga has started being published

Wait Toff Fairy and Madam Z are played by Adashimas?

>>4438980
Watanare airs next season, and the image is for things beyond that

>>4438750
Bocchi sisters... we didn't make the cut

>>4438980
>beyond the upcoming season
Means the image is about the shows after summer

>>4438985
>>4438989
OK my niggas, i stand corrected.

>>4438985
I really hoped they'd release the full OP for this before the anime aired as a little teaser, it sounds catchy as hell

Can I get the updated list of every yuri anime in existence, please

>>4438999
no.

>>4439001
:'(

>>4438993
MURI MURI

Why do people on xitter are calling Watanare a harem?
It's a reverse harem...
Do they not at least read the manga

>>4439022
it worse, its poly

>>4438930
For some reasons Teren always have good artists working on his series.

>>4439028
Well same can't be said for the LN, you feel me?

>>4438999
this one?
>>4356495

>>4439022
Can't wait for the Mai Oduka Discourse when she tries to rape Renako

>>4439033
Thank you, nee san

Is there any fanart of Renako being eaten out by Mai or anything? That bit where she almost does it was so fucking hot man

>>4439022
Multiple girls - harem
Multiple men - reverse harem
Are you stupid or something?

>>4439026
I usually hate poly and think it's pretentious as fuck in real life but given this is a comedy I think people take it way too seriously

>bringing hetshit
Kys.
Harem = Multiple girls belongs to you
Reverse harem = You're belongs to multiple girls' harem club

>>4439039

>>4439003
>:'(

>>4439044
Anon, were you dropped as a baby?

>>4439047
I got shot once, im not risking it again sorry

>>4439041
And you belong in primary school to learn basic English grammar.

>>4439049
Too bad, you're getting shot right now.

>>4439051
well either way, all I've wanted since the scene where she almost eats her pussy out is to see it happen so I'll die happy now. Only way to improve that is animating it

Renako's self esteem issues give WataNare a stronger emotional core than most Yuri to me, her learning to love herself hits too close to home

>>4439049
I'll take that as a yes.

>>4439054
Take it however you want, if I'm being too cautious I don't care

>>4439055
Cautious about what? You're in a fucking porn site, for fuck's sake.

>>4439064
I literally just said I got got in the past,

>>4439064
Mods are really harsh on posting NSFW on SFW boards. Apparently, to the point of assassination.

>>4439065
Can you stop being such a vague bastard and get to the point?

>>4439066
Have you seen which board you're in? Do you need glasses to recognise the letter u?

>>4439067
I said I got banned twice, how much more direct do you want me to be?

Fine

>>4439069
>futa

>>4439070
not seeing the futa tag

>>4439071
That position doesn't make much sense for lesbian sex. But then again, I'm not Renako, so who knows

>>4439072
Maybe, but the idea that Mai's groin is pushing against Renako's ass so her pussy presses down against Ajisai, and that if she gets a jolt from being stimulated/excited she can really move without pressing back against either is just really hot to me

>>4438835
>>4438817
>>4438944
Iruka and Mika from medalist
I never thought about until now but they do fit the adashima dynamic surprisingly well

>>4439068
Banned for what? For posting yuri in the yuri board?

>went on an interview with Japanese
>one of their name is Goto-san
I tried my best to not accidentally call them Hitori-san

>>4439072
>>4439073
This artist does not do futa, but does hetshit of even yuri characters, though not of watanare so far, so there you go, don't subscribe.

>>4439085
You're not my mum.

>>4439085
Yeah, the search for Watanare turned up a fair amount of hetshit, but I thought the threesome and Mai eating out Renako was very nice at least, made me feel like less of an autist for wanting to see Mai finish the job she started there if someone else felt the same way

>>4439086
Go to bed

>>4438935
>how much in a bad place Shimamura was before meeting Adachi.
Please spoil me, anon.

>>4439084
That would at least be better than calling them bocchi

>>4438914
I keep seeing weirder and weirder anecdotes from this LN it's really time to start. I'm only afraid I'll gun through the available english ones then I'll have nothing left

>>4438951
True.

>>4439132
I read it in japanese, but I think only book 10 (which came out in march) hasn't been translated

>>4439142
>AdaShima is the Boss Baby of yuri

I envy kids who had adashima as their first anime.
Back then we had to sit through bullshit like marimite for scraps of yuri.

>>4439156
Would prefer a story without a bi mc.

>>4439160
malicious mistranslation

>>4439156
You shouldn't, they'll all grow up to be spoiled brats who can't appreciate the little things in life.

>>4439171
Atleast they won't grow up to be doormat cuckolds who tolerate hetshits forced onto them.

>>4439156
Kannazuki no miko released the same year as the first season of marimite

>>4439172
Says the dude that can't enjoy a ship unless it's canon.
Maybe grow some thicker skin and get an imagination, possibly some inspiration too.

>>4439174
And by the standards today it's hetshit because there's a male love interest.

>>4439175
>Says the dude that can't enjoy a ship unless it's canon.
Absolute projection.
Shipping two girls is great.
Shipping a girl with a hetslut, or shipping two hetsluts is gross. disgusting.
>grow some thicker skin
Translate: "tolerate more hetshit"
Cuckold mentality. kys.

>>4439179
What argument is there to be had against someone so irrational and overly emotional like you?
Enjoy your time seething, I'll continue shipping whoever I want regardless of canon material.

Meanwhile "hetshit" in question: villains or rivals with zero romantic implication.

>>4439180
Never tried to argue.
You're free to tolerate hetshit and be a cuck. And I'm free to shit on your garbage taste.

>>4439180
NTA, but as long as you don't post hetshit or stuff from hetshit series on this board you can enjoy what you want

>>4439182
The fact that you think it's cuckolding mean that you're self inserting. So you're a faggot in general who doesn't like yuri, you just like to know no men can get them. lol

>>4439185
???
Stop projecting.
I'm not the one forcing myself to "grow some thicker skin".
I'm not even talking about that cuckolding. Exposing yourself to things you don't enjoy is—for the lack of a better word—cuckoldry.

>>4439187
Then don't watch it. But to call it het shit and then act like you're some superior being when you literally self insert like a complete faggot that's too insecure to enjoy anything that's not canon or has a side relationship that's het. Just shut the fuck up.

Why are they so perfect for each other?

>>4439188
I dont watch it, didnt intend to.
All I did was just calling a spade a spade. Yet you're here fighting some ghost that you've projected onto me.
And yes, my yuri will always be superior to whatever bullshit you're defending rn.

>>4439156
Really bizarre example to cite given marimite was an adaption of a yuri LN series, in fact it's the exact sort of thing that gets parodied when people are doing a pastiche of yuri cliches

>>4439192
Yuri is yuri. You don't like yuri if you think otherwise. You just don't like the competition of other men. That's why you don't like or understand subtext, that's why you sit here like an insecure cuck absolutely fuming over anything that gets you insecure about not being the only man in an anime. As if it has any bearing on how good a ship is or as if it devalues it in any way. It's your preference, sure. But at least be honest.

>>4438999
There's this up to 2022.
https://files.catbox.moe/lepbcv.jpg

I just see two faggots projecting their previous online bullshit on each other. In truth seeing the growth of yuri itself was a very nice experience young people will never understand, but I don't miss those times, shitty endings or outright non yuri developments, bad stereotypes, sometimes even yuri works would be dismissive of women or homosexuality, yuri anime being just a toned down het hentai VN and of course the community being a board where it would take sometime weeks for you to get an answer to something. I just wish some authors had done their works 10 years later, it would have made an ocean of difference.

>>4439195
>Half of the list is pure headcanon
>The non yuri one from the /u/ stick is there
>Hinako Note
>Gakkou Gurashi
I'm surprised Hibike and Mikagura aren't here, would have fit perfectly.

>>4439198
>There's something wrong with headcanon
You realize without this there's almost no reason to write fanfiction or even make more content. It's because people feel implored to find an alternate that they find fitting. Very few and very rare cases show otherwise. Because as soon as you have a satisfactory ending then there's no reason to ask for anything more.

>>4439199
Sure, but you don't need to recommend your headcanon, the stuff above, ga rei, and so on. Hell even Keijo has a male love interest, which the author fucking hated, but his editor wanted MC to end with him, which ironically never happened because the magazine changed higher ups and the new guy though Keijo was too trash for the magazine.

>>4439205
Understandable.
It would make more sense to list them separately or with a note for those less interested in such content.

>>4439193
Marimite was so shit people had to invent an entire genre to fix it.

>>4439210
Yuri already existed as a genre, it just had no commercial value, it was ironically Marimite that allowed nips to distance the word yuri from explicit lesbianism to just the portrayal of romantic feelings between women and thus allowing to be more approachable to the female audience of the time.

>>4439194
You need to take your meds and stop imagining things, like making "male" the main reason for a stranger on the internet to love yuri.

Yuri is yuri.
Hetshit isn't.
and i like yuri.

Why'd anyone want male in their yuri? that just make it bishit, or even worse, hetshit. And no matter how good a subtext is, will always get overwritten by hetshit maintext. I don't want any male in, and yes it influence the quality of the ship, cuz I'm not a crackshipper with zero self respect.

The S in "Class S" stands for Shit

>>4439216
Cope.
This isn't an argument. You're a self inserting faggot. Yuri is yuri as you said. Nothing else matters, not het or anything. It's still yuri and it will be yuri regardless of main text or otherwise. The quality of the ship is based on the writing of the two involved. You should just move on, you can't come up with a coherent argument. You have the mind of a juvenile.

>>4439213
Yes, it's responsible for subtext we have today.

>>4439220
>We have today
It's almost as if people think everything is made for them rather than being an actual creation with an author. What is the point of writing anything at that point? Just write the same story over and over with the same characters. There's no need to be even the slightest bit subtle, in fact why even write a story? Just make gay porn.

>>4439221
Marimite popularized subtext. Or more precisely shit that almost looks, sounds and walks like romance but isn't actually romance. It did and still does sell way more than real yuri.
Marimite almost led the genre astray. Thankfully we have heroes like Namori, Morinaga Milk who didn't fall for it and defined yuri.

>>4439222
Yes. Women enjoy subtext, that's why it gets popular with them. Because they are usually less concerned with canon and more imaginative. Women fantasize all day. Naturally because of the lack of happy ending, they make their own.
Not to say milk isn't great. Girlfriends is OG. Marimite didn't lead anything astray. It did exactly as it should have.

>>4439176
Both girls in Witch from Mercury have at least 1 dude into them but nobody cares because the dudes die (El4n) or are explicitly rejected (Guel, Shaddiq). Same applies to Souma in Kannazuki. He gets explicitly rejected and Himeko explicitly loves Chikane

>>4439181
Hetshit in question
Gay is just a phase until you marry a man (Marimite)

>>4439223
Bullshit. You don't personally know every single woman and can't speak for them all.

>>4439224
That's the response of someone rational. Most newfags that have infested /u/ over the past few years are not.

>>4439226
Yes, but I am a women and have plenty of women friends that are deeply into fandoms. What do you know about what women like? Why do you think yaoi is so popular in ships that have absolutely no basis in canon? Tell me.

>>4439219
Sure, I'm totally the one coping by writing yuri fanfict about 2 hetsluts.

Calling heterosexual dynamics “yuri” doesn’t magically make them so—words have meanings, and slapping a label on something just because it suits your fantasy doesn’t transform its fundamental nature. I don’t self-insert, nor do I indulge in the mental gymnastics of projecting queerness onto characters steeped in straight-coded narratives just to appease a personal fetish.
Yuri, at its core, is not a genre where one rewrites context to fit a preferred delusion. It’s about the genuine exploration of same-sex attraction between women—not background crumbs you scrape together from a het work and dress up as queer coding. If the substance of a relationship is heteronormative in nature, calling it yuri is not just inaccurate—it erodes the integrity of the genre.
You can call your headcanons whatever you like, but don’t confuse personal coping mechanisms with genre truth. What I’m offering isn’t juvenile—it’s called discernment.

fellas, without hetsluts there will be no yuri

>>4439228
No one cares about you, this isn't your blog.

>>4439229
You have not only moved the goalpost but called yourself out.
This isn't an argument about slapping a label on something, it's about the fact that you deny what yuri is if it's in the context of another relationship that may be het. You do self insert an indulge in heavy amounts of delusion to believe that somehow yuri is no longer yuri if there's any het relationship nearby. And I'm not interested in your weird queer lingo. Your fetish is that you have all females to yourself. Otherwise you'd just be enjoying the story of two girls in love, do you think that a heterosexual relationship mean that a genuine explanation of sexuality can't occur? What is the heteronormative substance of a homosexual relationship? Again. I need an explanation because you're not making any sense here. There's nothing heteronormative about homosexuality, regardless of whether a heterosexual relationship is occurring, when two homosexuals are in a relationship, it's homosexual.

>>4439228
t.tranny

>>4439232
This is about Marimite. A shit story where yuri is just a phase and the girls marry men at the end. That shit will never be yuri
If it is, so is Euphonium. You don’t need to self insert to say het will never be yuri

>>4439237
This isn't about marimite, so you can't argue therefore you say it's about something else. Got it.

>>4439232
when a homosexual is in a heterosexual relationship its a heterosexual relationship

>>4439241
When a homosexual relationship is in a heterosexual relationship it is a homosexual relationship

>>4439232
You're conflating two separate issues to derail the discussion. No one is "denying what yuri is"—yuri, at its core, is about the emotional and/or romantic relationships between women. But what you're doing is pretending that yuri remains pure yuri even when the narrative sidelines that central focus in favor of hetero pairings, or when it places the yuri elements in a subtextual, fetishized, or ultimately disposable role. That’s the issue: dilution, not denial.
You accuse me of self-inserting and “fetishizing” the idea of “having all the women to myself,” which is laughable and revealing. You’re projecting your own assumptions onto a critique that’s literary and genre-focused, not personal. It’s not about “having” anyone—it’s about respecting yuri as its own genre, not just as flavoring for a broader heteronormative framework.
Your desperate attempt to sound philosophical—asking “what is the heteronormative substance of a homosexual relationship?”—ignores context. A relationship between two women can be written in a way that centers heterosexual expectations: one girl plays the “man,” the story only treats the relationship as valid until a “real” man shows up, or it’s framed for the male gaze. These tropes do exist, and they do matter. That’s the heteronormativity I’m critiquing. Not the relationship itself, but how it’s contextualized and often undermined.
And finally—no, a heterosexual relationship absolutely can coexist in a story where queer narratives are treated with respect. But when a narrative consistently sidelines, mocks, or tokenizes its queer elements to reinforce straight pairings or please a broader market, don’t ask me to swallow it and call it “still yuri.” That’s not purism—it’s having standards.
Yuri deserves better than to be treated as a phase, a subplot, or a fetish. If that makes me a "purist," then so be it. At least I care enough to defend it properly.

If a guy isn't explicitly rejected, even if he didn't confess at all (especially if he didn't confess at all), he's sure going to win in the movie!
That is the high standards.

>>4439242
anon???

These wouldnt have happened If we never use crutch like s-class and rely on hetsluts to jump start yuri

>>4439243
>Yuri remains pure
There ya go. You called yourself out again. You're a purity fag not actually interested in yuri relationships. You're only interested in having a male free show. There is no such thing as heteronormativity in a lesbian relationship. No matter if they act like men or not. Those tropes do not matter, what matters is that they were in a gay relationship.
Also I'm suspecting you're a tranny after using the LGBT buzzwords like queer and valid when we're discussing yuri. Worrying. But you're still writing. I'm not arguing with a tranny.

>>4439196
Those things still happening in baihei, baeghab, and SEA & western GL.
What makes yuri (japanese) different?

People don’t seem to like using the term GL but what do you call the SFW equivalent of yuri then? For the general public yuri will always connate as a porn tag not as a genre, it’s sad but true.

>>4439274
Shoujo Ai

>>4439274
>GL
>SFW
The chinese comics that are full of sex, even if it's censored sex sometimes, use the GL label and it's also used for SEA lesbian live action. At this point GL it's just a umbrella term for all lesbian media made in Asia

>>4439274
The general public doesn't know that yuri is a thing.

>>4439277
Why doesn't the western world use the term GL?

>>4439274
why don't we just call them lesbian? if nudity is present call them nsfw lesbian.
by calling them lesbian we could filter out bi, het, & genderswap/futa/trans.

>>4439132
Have you heard the one about Toriko fingering Sorawo's eyeball?
Read it, it's so good.

>>4439282
Because it has the retarded WLW term. I hate it not because who use it but because it looks like a wrestling thing.

I wonder if they swapped underwear too.

>>4439296
Who's the McMahon of Women Lesbian Wrestling (WLW) ?

>>4439193
>marimite was an adaption of a yuri LN series
A LN where one girl ended up with a man, and all the others were expected to do the same. That's not yuri.

>>4439244
Fuck off, Kyoani.

I can't believe we've reach the point in the future where we can have AI make What Counts As Yuri arguments for us. The em dashes and "that's not x, it's y" are a dead giveaway.

>>4439251
>You're only interested in having a male free show
NTA, but not having non-yuri shit is in everyone's best interests. It's telling that it isn't in yours.

>>4439307
No all of them, there was an actual lesbian there too, some definitely did though. Though unlikely all of them did. But the ending is definitely open ended in how they would deal with their feelings. Ultimately it's the perfect example of what happens when you have explicit non yuri elements and subtext yuri elements together.

Boomers really had it rough...

>>4439321
The fact is most yuri series are not published in yuri magazines and publishers have divergent opinions on what is their readers' best interests, it's easy to not have guys in some types of story like CGDCT, but you pick something like fantasy and the lack of different character dynamics hurts it.

>>4439324
There wasn't shitposting back in my days.

>>4439324
kids who had marimite as their first yuri are millennials though

>>4439325
Unless you do fantasy CGDCT

>>4439326
There was also no argument if X was yuri, we knew the answer was no.

>>4439328
Even fantasy CGDCT usually has them interacting with guys, like RPG Real State for example.

>deleted all across the board

She might wear nothing under the black ninja leotard.

>>4439326
There wasn't yuri either.

>>4439274
that people think or believe something stupid doesn't make it a truth, people who still pretend that Death Note or Jojo (before going to ultra jump) are Seinen series or directly that Seienen is a "genre" for "serious and mature people" in addition to "only blood and guts series" or people who still don't have a fucking clue what an Opening and an Endings are (no, it's not the song)

The same thing happens here, yuri is simply yuri, GL is technically another way of referring to yuri, which in the end is basically the same thing (let's not pretend that BL isn't a thing) there is no reason to give yuri different names, NSFW and SFW, that is the job of the other Tags, the genre itself of the work.

>>4439356
They actually have the yuri and GL tags on narou because people were abusing the yuri tag for anything with minimal interaction between girls regardless of context, GL there is for works focused on romance between girls.

In most places where GL is used, it's just a substitute for yuri because it's a more obvious term, especially considering everyone knows what BL is.

>>4439244
>>4439311
That this happens in 2 supposedly unrelated series is sad and pathetic, especially when that "plot twist" seems pulled out of their asses and is handled even more with their asses.

>>4439244
>If a guy isn't explicitly rejected, even if he didn't confess at all (especially if he didn't confess at all), he's sure going to win in the movie (especially if the movie was never produced).

>>4439363
but the problem there is not the yuri and GL terminology, but people who have no fucking idea how to categorize things, look at Ex-hentai as an even more pathetic example, where the insistence should not exist when the page already has different ways of separating, Manga from Doujins and non-H works, also CG galleries of normal image sets, forcing the nonsense of "girls only" only opens the way for idiots who put collections of girls posing (alone) with that Tag, even when it explicitly says that it is for 2 or more girls per "image"

People should just stop this nonsense of wanting to separate everything when it's not necessary, yuri as a genre is quite well defined, yuri as an element would only need to be mentioned according to the level that the series presents, but if there are no intentions there is no obligation (Even with an explicit ending, it's better than people discovering it horrified)

>>4439367
I don't disagree, but you cannot hope to educate people, it's just easier to rebrand things and make it clear from the start you will punish who tries to work around it.

>>4439397
They're scissoring, anon.

While we're on the topic of semantics, I'd like to point out how I find it interesting how yuri is basically a universal term between the east and west, whereas yaoi has seemingly completely fallen out of common usage except specifically in the west as a contrast to the term yuri. Was yaoi one of those "shoujo ai" things all along that never managed to kick the misnomer? Admittedly I don't follow the genre but when I see it referenced in the context of fujoshi characters, I've literally never seen the term "yaoi" used.

>>4439401
>Fumio Aya
Man, if the yuri fairy gave me one wish I would use it so that's she gets more manga work. I love her art, it's a huge shame her work didn't get more attention.

>>4439401
>inside two different separate glasses
>the bristles not interlocking

>>4439409
Yaoi always carried a negative connotiation, since it was a portmanteu of "yama nashi, ochi nashi, imi nashi", basically meaning that it was just shallow porn. It was meant to be tongue-in-cheek and eventually fell out of use in favour of Boys' Love, or just BL.
As for why the term continued being used in the West, it's simply because it's short, unique, and unambiguous. It also made a nice matching pair with yuri since both are four-letter words that start with Y.
Japan seems to use Girls' Love and yuri interchangeably, but its brother term bara is limited to a specific BL subgenre.

>>4439409
Yaoi was originally a word used to describe specifically doujin or fanart of existing franchises, while BL was always the broad usage of the genre together with Bara, yaoi feel out of usage because it's just easier to call everything BL.

As usual some retard in the west a long time ago heard fujos using the word yaoi and immediately assume the meaning and since back then were was no way to fact check shit everyone just assumed it was true.

>>4439394
Talking about Ninkoro. All the dead ninjas had halos in the last ED but Aoi didn't have a halo, so she's alive now, right?

>half of it dedicated to Konoha
>other half of it dedicated to food that makes Konoha happy
>a sprinkle of self-care to make sure she doesn't worry Konoha the next time they see each other

I saw this tweet https://x.com/SENBAKO1/status/1938243662338785363?t=jzMcZYbTtbIw-Tyo_0Y2-Q&s=19 and it made me come up with a theory about why Konoha can't tell Satoko apart from Roboko. I think Roboko really is messing with Konoha's perception. She's not brainwashing her per se but is projecting a version of herself that's physically human-like and Konoha can't see her for who she is. Why?
> Like the tweet says, Konoha noticed Satoko's eye right away when nobody else did. It shows she's looking at Satoko a lot and is perceptive.
> Later she mistakes Roboko as Satoko again. It's kinda weird.
> Roboko said she didn't do anything to Konoha but she did lie to Satoko before when she tried to get Minato killed (!) so that Konoha would remain a toddler and grow up to be a different person. That's actually very intelligent and evil and shows that she's willing to lie in order to have her fill of Konoha. She has Satoko's taste but a very different disposition and personality. It's not crazy to think she'd lie and continue to project and illusion of her appearance for Konoha exclusively (at least in big form).

>Konoha aborted the mission early because she was worried about Satoko not answering her phone, not because she got an arm cut off

>>4439514
It's funny how you can apply that to series that have shown or are more yuri, but that are mostly looked down upon for the same reasons that this anime is forgiven, something similar happens with Dungeon Meshi.

>>4436101 (OP)
Why is she crying

>>4439527
Don't bother, they are not going to follow the manga, they only cared when the anime was airing, unless it gets S2 you will never hear about this series ever again, just like many others headcanon of the month series.

>>4439436
It’s CGI based on the manga and mocap provided by Band-Maid (the band that does the OP)
Doing a concert in 2D is hard, so many of these shows go for CGI, which can clash with the 2D elements
In that regard, going for full CGI like Ave Mujica or Girl Band Cry can be better, so the performances aren’t so jarring and different to the rest of the show

W-what the hell did they do to the audience?

>>4439546
The soundwaves carried the pheromones from their armpits and cunts straight to the girls' brains.

>>4439533
She's pregnant, and one of the two girls next to her did it. Which, she doesn't know, which can be stressing.

>>4439559
It's just, I haven't read it but if I had two cuties being nice with me like that I'd be probably be super excited

>>4439560
She is heterosexual and this is the problem

>>4439561
She's definitely a closet case, in the LN at least whenever Mai comes on to her she's like in a constant Id/Ego battle where one wants to be turned inside out and the other is too scared to accept that so pushes her away and pretends it's because Mai is crazy (which she is to be fair)

>>4439443

>>4439792
of all the adaptations that could've ended with a no-budget production, this is the one i mind the least, the manga has dragged on for so long with barely any meaningful developments that i can't muster any interest in the story anymore

>>4439789
From two minutes of googling. She's dead. The other is either dead or on the endless run after achieving nothing; the only confirmed survivors are the villains and the dude who was crushing on one of the girls. Misery porn form the start to the end.

Unfortunately doomed yuri is more emotional than happy yuri.

>>4439825
That is correct.

>>4439797
I don't think it looks particularly bad but I do think Shiori's monster form looks a bit meh compared to the manga. Aside from that this is the same studio that did WataYuri which was an alright adaptation so it shouldn't be a disastrous production.

>>4439825
What about doomed happy yuri.

>getting a reprint the same day it gets released

It as probably a small print to the point it sold everything just with pre orders

>>4439913
It's a million times better than some of the stuff drawn on there like Narenare.

>>4439915
the issue with the narenare couple is that they did nothing with them after that gay and weird episode, and yes the overall anime was pretty dumb

>>4439883
The publisher seems to be small digital focused one that only started doing print tanks in the last few years. If they don't have much experience estimating print runs I'm not surprised if they conservatively did a small one.

>>4439921
>digital focused
I hope this won't become yet another incomplete series on my shelf because the published went digital only after the initial print.

>>4439926
You are better of just buying complete series at this point

Some people realizing the yuri couple was the only well written part of Alien Stage is so funny since one of the girls died at the start. I hope the next Vivinos project is purely yuri.

Look, I'm not saying it's the second coming of Yuri but I bought all LN, all Manga and will buy the DVDs of the anime when it's out

>>4440254
You can't always just copy the Adashima character designs either, yet here we are.

>>4440288
I mean you are entitled to your opinion, but Shimamura specifically is an amazingly written character when you consider from her turancy burnout years to her being an old women waiting to die, the growth is incredible.

If Renako doesn't choose either Mai or Ajisai I'll see Watanare as a failure

>>4440299
Teren always wanted to do a yuri poly story so that wouldn't happen. The real question it's if Satsuki and Kaho will become part of Renako's harem or will become their own couple.

>>4440301
Having Mai say Renako is the only girl she loves and then later be okay with a threesome and also loves Ajisai is just bad writing to me

Interesting to see 4chan of all places not be on board with Mai trying to eat Renako's pussy

I hear Mai gets so guilty over that even she tries to do something stupid?

>>4440302
That's common in harem. Not the polyshit, but the super hot perfect 10/10 girl who could probably have a harem of her own, giving it all up just to be near the MC even if she knows she doesn't have a chance.
In the harem genre it is the "proof" of how desirable the MC is, a character like Mai is kept around solely to stroke the MC's (and, by extension, the reader's) ego.

>>4440305
I thought it was touching how Mai gave Renako more self confidence, and it was Renako's self deprecation that really drew me in, like not even Shimamura actively hated herself the way Renako does. I kinda' wish that was the endgame, they briefly mention how a lover CAN be also a best friend and with how clearly Renako wants Mai to fuck her brains out it would have been cool for her to accept that yes, this hot hafu frenchie sincerely loves her and she deserves to be loved.

what are some axed series with good endings?

>>4440299
I really want this to end in polygamy. I feel for Renako so bad, its such a tough decision. If you really wanted a Mai ending then just go read Teren’s other work.

>>4440312

Haikei, Arishi Hi ni Saku Hanatachi e

After watching the Rock Lady show, I don't know if the relationship will ever become romantic or not, but given the sexual innuendo that surrounds their relationship, it doesn't seem impossible that it could eventually go that way like some people were suggesting earlier.

>>4440413
Nothing is impossible because fiction has no rules bounding it to any scenario, but it doesn't feel like the author is creating the foundation for it, however like I said there is no real requirement for it, if the author wants it will regardless of what it looks like and if the author does not want it won't happen regardless of how it looks like (and unfortunately we know this too well).

Keep reading it, we only ever know there is yuri content or not in stuff because someone has been reading it.

>>4440415
>but it doesn't feel like the author is creating the foundation for it
They already fantasize about dominating each other and that scene in particular was kiss bait. Would you really think that they would be acting out of character if they kissed each other during that moment?

>>4440416
Those fantasies are the author's representation, not their imagination, the anime actually made it look gayer with animation but it's a nothing scene in the manga. They never really showed romantic interest in the other, so it's hard to say it would be in character, though sure sometimes people get really emotional and in the mood and they suddenly kiss.

>>4440418
>author's representation
Has this been stated by the author? There's nothing really to suggest that it is completely divorced from how the characters' feel. And if connected to the characters, then how they feel about each other is sexual in some way.

>>4440423
I don't think you are supposed to take it beyond author doing a fanservice scene that represents their dynamic, though to be fair I am not the author and ultimately does not know what he is thinking.

>>4440426
>>4440427
>>4440428
>>4440429
>Still posting futa

>>4440438
Even beyond the imaginations, it also extends to their behaviour and dialogue. Just see how they clearly draw some kind of erotic pleasure from how they interact and talk with each other. So the question to me becomes what's stopping these fantasies or intimate moments from happening for real? I haven't seen any roadblocks to suggest that it couldn't happen (which is a different question than will it happen), so everything is up in the air at the moment.

Hell, there's always a possibility that they could engage in this behaviour but not have an explicit relationship by the end.

>>4440455
I don't think she is being suggestive to Ririsa here anon, regardless the manga is currently on volume 7, so there is a lot of content out there and it never progressed from here, which does not mean it never will, but usually we see stuff like this gradually escalating.

>>4440464
I'm not saying she's being suggestive to Ririsa, only that she clearly gains some sort of pleasure from her actions.

>so there is a lot of content out there
The anime basically covered up to volume 5, so there's not a lot of content beyond that.

>>4440473
Yes, but the anime skipped stuff as usual, it also depends how far the series will go after all.

I've been struggling with some stuff lately, could a kind anon recommend me some wholesome yuri mangas to help take my mind off things?

>>4440577
If you haven't already read it, then I can't recommend Hino-san no Baka enough. It's feel-good, funny, and surprisingly romantic.
