Black x Blonde is the Building block of yuri.
>hetshit OP
Mai owes Natsuki sex
>read Excel Saga>first 10 volumes or so (which amounts to like something like 2000 pages):>Excel only looks up to Il Palazzo professionally and cares about him only as far as making her second in command in conquering earth>Il Palazzo is a sociopath who doesn't care about his minions, it's always only Excel devoting her life to protect and care for Hyatt>Hyatt develops feelings for Excel and wishes she can be by her side forever>Elgala is tsundere for Excel and molests her when she's drunk>Ropponmatsu is lesbian and has the hots for Matsuya, who is open to her advances >all the male characters are pathetic jerks, and all the female characters either hate them or barely notice their existence>later volumes:>Excel has a blatant romantic crush on Il Palazzo and follows his orders not because they have a common goal, but because she just loves him>Hyatt now has romantic development with one of the male characters she barely knew existed in the first 10 volumes>out of nowhere, it turns out Matsuya has a past with an asshole guy she used to hate so much in the first 10 volumes, and now she likes him despite even though hes one dumb pathetic horny creep>Ropponmatsu now hangs out with the fat guy all the time instead of Matsuya, she barely cares about Matsuya anymore >Elgala isn't much more than an ecchi bait now Why are hetfag authors like this? Why was this allowed?
>>4614084Our ancestors had hard times...
>>4614084>Why are hetfag authors like this?
>>4614084Just read Pandora in Crimson Shell, if you need to read anything by this man
>>4614098Yuribait and anti-yuri creators haven't died. They just evolved.
>>4614084>>4614360>Anti-yuri manga abomination >Pro-yuri manga masterpiece immediately afterHmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmwhat do i take away from this?
>>4614542he saw the light and had to repent
>>4614542He's always liked yuri, Excel Saga had the seeds of a great yuri, but his still a filthy m*leoid with self insert obsession.
>>4614542Nio Nakatani did the same thing but in reverse
>>4614549Not really.
>>4614542That pro-yuri and anti-yuri are meaningless terms and a false dichotomy that only exists in your mind.
>>4614550Yeah, the second work wasn't really anti-yuri, it was simply not yuri.Nio's attitude is the anti-yuri thing, and extremely so. She will not mind (and even support) people shipping the Bloom Into You characters with males, but she will go ballistic (beyond the regular japanese passive-agressive ways) if people ship the female character from the shotashit series with another girl.
>>4614617You have to stop trying to force this shit about her suppossedly being a hypocrite about shipping in her works when I've never seen any evidence beyond "sis trust me" every time it's mentioned
>>4614617Source: your asshole.
>>4614621That asshole has produced better things than Nakatani has after Bloom Into You
>>4614625
>>4614625Her making hetshit is not an excuse for you to lie about her. It's clear you're desperate for an angle to get the board to vocally hate her and it won't work
>>4614640There's a big difference between not liking something and hating something under any pretext. For example, I hate P&S, but I simply don't like BNA. The first reason is because the fans are stupid and the series isn't worth it (a comedy that isn't funny). With BNA, it's simply that it doesn't convince me as a series, world building, writing, design, characters, and much more, but that's just my opinion.Now, the hatred of se Anon towards the author of Yagakimi is simply stupid. Authors can do whatever they want, but we must not forget that those ideas have to be approved by the editor and the publishing house. So, a manga is almost a team effort between the mangaka and the editor, so if they want to complain about nonsense, the editor also has something to do with that nonsense.
>--Finally, please give a message to readers who are looking forward to your work!>Thank you for your continued support!>I had planned to complete this work in as few as three volumes, but thanks to your enthusiastic support, it has continued for six volumes and over four years, and I think I will be able to draw the best ending I envisioned. Thank you so much. I would be happiest if you would enjoy and support the work until the very end!https://thetv.jp/news/detail/1444102/So I guess Genkai OL-san is ending with the next volume.
>>4614734The axe has no mercy.
>>4614734About time, Lapis really ruined the manga with her mindless stupidity.
>>4614744Lapis or Aurora?
>>4613866Who the fuck made this new thread when the other one still was on like page 4? Take your meds.
>>4614625not your fucking personal army anon
>>4614084The anime is cringeworthy, but at least they made both Ropponmatsus lesbians and Excel a closet gay with selfcest fetish. Hyatt only fell in love with Ropponmatsu 1. All the hetshit from the manga got played off as a joke, all male main characters are creepy perverts who never got the girls they're crushing on.
>>4614734so was the Anime leak fake?
>>4614617>She will not mind (and even support) people shipping the Bloom Into You characters with maleshas this actually happened, like when the Botan author said they would share het fanart of their yuri characters, or are you just making shit up to tarnish her image just because youre mad her new series wasnt yuri? At worst she probably just made a vague post about letting people do what they want, since she used to make a lot of doujins>>4614644>Authors can do whatever they want, but we must not forget that those ideas have to be approved by the editor and the publishing housenot defending schizo anon, but what are you trying to say with this? Are you implying its a konohana kitan type of situation, or is this just a weird way to lessen an authors accountability?

>>4614922Regardless of how the leaker becomes privy to information it's safe to assume the anime talks reached a point where adaptations are usually safe to call confirmed, maybe some promotional material for it was already being shared or something.So it's either one of those cases that a manga ends before its adaptation airs, or that an anime is canceled somewhere beyond the green-lit point, both of which are pretty exceptional, but I'm betting on the first one still, given the track record of the leaker.
>>4615014Further complicating matters is that axed shit is now getting adaptations,like Black Torch, Looking for Zombie, Psyren. So, axe doesn't mean no anime any longer
>>4614084Dont careLoved Excel Saga anime 20 years ago.Loved that one AMV with with You Give Love a Bad NameLoved the lesbian robot episode
Interview with Shuukura author Usa Haneda. Key takeaways:>Shuukura started off as a light yuri (cringe) to appeal to people who dont usually read yuri, but ended up becoming hardcore yuri (based)>Favorite novel isn't yuri (cringe), but Kitakawa is one of her favorite yuri manga (based). Unless she didn't list a yuri because the interviewer phrased it like two separate questions >Her biggest inspiration for starting on Shuukura was that no one was writing the kind of yuri she wanted to read, so she decided to create her own (extremely based)https://anitrendz.net/news/2026/10/18/buying-a-classmate-once-a-week-interview-author-usa-haneda-on-their-codependence-yuri-light-novel-series/

>>4615107The anime is gayer and funnier than the manga. It ended long before the manga went hetshit. Anime's Excel canonically practices her finger technique on Hyatt's coin slot every night.
>>4615218It's been such a long time I don't even remember the last half of the animeTime for a rewatch
>>4615190>like trash like kitakawaIt's a miracle Shuukura didnt suck ass then. All edgelords who pretend the garbage mentally ill suicide manga is "deep" and "meaningful" are just trash. I guess she had to hide her actual favorites and just went for ShitaKawa for the cloud of having "toxic yuri" on her resume.

Yayas would suffer less if they just accepted that older women always win.
SoWhat are we watchingNothing?
>>4615420I'm watching you through your window at night.
>>4615420Many things, yes, from this season, the train one may have potential, as may the FX one, and the one with the girl who uses internet powers may have yuri according to the opening, Maho Iku 2 is what I expected, other decent things and garbage that doesn't deserve to exist or have received a damn second season.
>>4615437>the one with this>the one with thatDo you think this Friends or something?
>>4615330But both in this and Yuzumori-san, the older girls lost.

4chan is back, I missed /u/
>>4615493Did the site get owned again
>>4615523No, not 4chan itself, some vulnerability in PHPs was discovered which threatened a bunch of different sites. Mangadex was also down for a while.
>>4615532Yeah, I couldn't read kinky yuri fanfics on deviantArt for a bit. Spooky stuff!
>>4615454Sekai Saikyou no Majo, HajimemashitaIt's one of those series where the main girl is super strong, but she doesn't realize it.
>>4615442Don't they all say they don't watch seasonal series or that they don't like them?Furthermore, there are no guarantees beyond assumptions since those series don't have important men in the cast, so they are a possibility; even in the Zombie series, the male character is anything but a romantic interest.
>>4615493/u/ needs a contingency plan for the day 4chan is no longer. I don't care about the rest of the site.
Didn't expect them to do another Saka Ninja lesbian sex scene (more of an orgy at this point) in edgerunners season 2.

Hey, Jimiko, gimme a season with nothing
>>4615463>using a MahouAko gifThat does explain your shit taste.
>>4615451Can't compare lolicon series to normal romance.
>>4615437>as may the FX oneDoesn't the manga involve girls prostituting themselves to old men for money?Something tells me it's not exactly trying to appeal to the yuri audience.
>>4615420Ever Maiden just got a translation and WataMari2 is supposedly releasing this month, they can help get through this empty season.
>>4615665>Ever Maiden just got a translationwait what, where?? i thought that shit was vaporware at this point
>>4615670Right over there: >>4612352I'm halfway through and it's amazing, best thing I've read in a long time.
>>4615437>>4615663Use names, motherfuckers.
>>4615693Boku no /biz/
>>4615662But lolicon is normal romance.
>>4615707probably the purest form of love there is
>>4615663I wouldn't know about that part, but at least in the anime, only the MC's mother has been shown doing something like that; so far, the actions taken have been more conventional for instance, using the family's savings.>>4615693>>4615543FX Fighter Kurumi-chanA comedy about investing money in a stock-market-style format, with people becoming desperate or even driven to suicide, you know, good fun.
>>4615707>>4615708
Besides Sumire Uesaka, I never heard of the other two seiyuu cast for murcielago's adaptation. I assume it's going to be a shitshow. I can only imagine that Sumire Uesaka owed somebody a favor to sign up for this.
>>4615718Apparently they're all from Uma Musume.And big seiyuu sign up willingly for shit shows a lot. Nana Mizuki is the villain the CG shota harem mecha show this season (Vertex Force).Tomokazu Sugita shows up in a lot of shitty ecchi shorts with little budget.
>>4615722At this point, it's most likely easier to name VAs that are NOT from Uma Musume.
>>4615718Newbies aren't always bad. Fuuka Izumi was just an extra in a couple shows before her role as Utena in Mahoako launched her career.
>>4615663One character did that in the original webcomic, but that wasn't included in the manga version. Instead it was changed to a massage service that doesn't have explicit sex shown.At the rate that it has been adapted, that stuff might not even happen this season.I'd never go around telling people that FX Fighter is yuri. You can yuri-goggle something between the purple and pink haired women, but even that would be in a season 2.
>>4615775That’s why I mentioned a certain potential, not a claim that it would be yuri, just that it’s a possibility, but it’s in a better position than Vertex Force (which is bad, really bad).
I've been getting into alternative idols lately and they seem much more interested in each other than the audience. The prince-type girl always seems to be the one I like the most.
>>4615722>they're all from Uma MusumeAlright, that explains why I never heard of them. I've never been into horses and I sneer at gacha stuff.
>>4615792>>I've never been into horses
>>4615718>>4615722>>Nana Mizuki She has been involved in some pretty bad projects—titles like Magical Canan, Idol Memories, Cross Ange, and others I’m forgetting. Studios use her because she sells. The same could be said for Aoi Yuki; she’s had a ton of terrible roles in series ranging from bad to mediocre (Rent-a-Girlfriend, Oregairu, and SAO, anyone?). These well-known voice actors have participated in quite a lot of trash that most people aren't even aware of.>>4615753The only times they’ve proven to be bad in their roles is when they’re poorly directed, when they couldn’t care less about the project (like in GJ-bu or Gridman), or when you have idols or actors from other fields, like that girl from AKB48, who has never managed to pull off a role well in her entire life.
>>4615792>I've never been into horsesHow do you get around from town to town then?
>>4615801Very carefully.
>>4615753also Kaoruko's VA was barely in anything and she killed it in the role
>>4615797Of course big names sell and companies want famous names in their projects. That's obvious, but the point is: a lot of the time you will see them in stuff that doesn't look like it shouldn't afford themLike what is Sugita, who voiced the MC in one of Jump's forever runners with over 100 episodes and several movies (Gintama) doing in shitty ecchi shorts with no budget. The most extreme case being a show that was literally like 3 or 4 minutes per episode, and Sugita was still there as narrator each episodeLiterally 0 budget and still has a big name they shouldn't afford.
>>4615820Kaoruko never said this.
>>4615828she didin our hearts
>>4615825>>but the point is: a lot of the time you will see them in stuff that doesn't look like it shouldn't afford themThat's why I say I've seen them in a lot of garbage, and they're clearly not big projects. I also wonder how the hell those people got there, although you have to consider that apparently female VAs are more expensive than male VAs, but it's funny when those investments don't amount to anything. I bet none of you reading this post watched Idol Memories or even knew it existed.
>>4615828>FUCK OFF AZUL YOU DIRTY WHORE!She did say this.
>>4615228Looks like this made it on a shoestring budget.

>>4616086NTA but are you retarded? The TV dialogue explicitly talks about dicks and the first scissoring scene is one of the girls LARPing as an oji-san talking about her "big dick".
>>4616111It's basic role play, I like how one is "innocent" and the other is ready to attack.
>>4616118Man, who cares, nobody here can read jap, we just look at the pictures.You have to be a fucking loser to care about dialogue.

Searching yuri manga about kemonomimi shrine maiden/goddess living in woman's house.In the beginning of that manga the human lady prayed/cleaned/placed some food to a small shrine that was seemingly abandoned and as a reward a spirit whose shrine it was settled in woman's house as a gesture of gratitude.Notable parts of it being that goddess was able to turn into her respective animal, she had a superrior who was a simmilar shapeshifter tanuki.Their transformation was possible due to them placing leaves on their head or something akin to that.It wasn't a oneshot and it had at least three chapters.

>>4616516It's this thing: https://x.com/yuri_navi/status/2113980074949226877NTA but I remember seeing a tweet about it this week that had a summary of the story as well, not sure if it was by yuri_navi tho, but if it was it looks like they deleted it and posted this instead.
>>4616596Looks like somebody in the quote retweets took a screenshot of the old tweet's text
>>4616596>The story is a slightly erotic love comedy about Noa Inukubo, a high school girl who wants to be perfect, and Tamaki, a junior girl who has a crush on her. One day, Tamaki, who desperately wants to have sex, casts a certain spell on Noa. Noa loses control of her sexual desire, and Tamaki grows a male organ. In order to break the spell, the two must have sex. However, Tamaki has lost her sexual desire... The story follows the two as they grow closer and try to help Tamaki regain her sexual desire and break the spell.Disgusting.
>>4616600ewwthey were wise to delete this shit
>>4616600>>4616615The problem here isn't showing the synopsis, but the series itself; honestly, it's one of the stupidest and most forced premises I've ever read.
>>4616619This short description is so retarded. It's like a caricature of what I hear when someone says hetshit.
I hate futa but have got a kink for clit enlargement. Hyenas have lesbian sex with it. I guess most women aren't into it because clit is too sensitive and delicate to be a substitute for male penis, they think it would be too painful, but for me that's where the fun is. It creates a really different and interesting dynamics where the "penetrator" is the one at the mercy of the "penetrated".
Think they choked each other?
>>4616651I hope so.
finished lara so i can go back and read what people thought of the ending.i liked ep11 with the twins and i liked the witch. i couldnt really see the yuri bait throughout the show, but the final episode strongly suggested lara liked Mari. my early prediction was that her love/light would be for humans in general, now i’m confused if i was correct or if it really was about mari.music was good. ending was kinda abrupt. kinda think they struck out but it was a solid okay show
>>4616662>ending was kinda abruptBecause the ending was first scene written for the show, but the made no effort in crafting a story that would actually lead to that ending.>her love/light would be for humans in general, now i’m confused if i was correctIt was spelled out in episode 10, media literacy-chan.
>>4616681>Because the ending was first scene written for the show,Proof?
>>4616681>talking about media literacy when the staff were the first to have no clue what they wroteThe optimal viewing experience for Lara is unironically being retarded and paying no mind to any symbolism since it all goes nowhere. The viewer should be just as confused and non-committal as the creators.
>>4615972Wataten OVA.
>>4616738The optimal viewing experience for Lara is just not being a retarded sperg and recognizing that a story can end unhappily. This shit reminds of the midwit takes that showed up at Kitakimi's end, where people spent weeks going "omg this came out of nowhere" (lol) and insisting that the ending totally ruined the manga.
>>4616751nta, but theres a difference between an unhappy ending and a dogshit ending thats both rushed and unsatisfying. The director even claimed they decided on the ending first before the rest of the story, which is why it felt like all the symbolism and character development went nowhere, and why Lara acted very out of character so she could abandon her "true love" in the last 5 minutes after taking away all her only friend and breaking her dead mothers memento. Just a pretentious writer trying to be deep and thought provoking at the expense of the story, except they forgot they were writing for a genre thats been doing these types of endings for decades. Even fucking utena managed to pull off a very similar ending better over 25 years ago and the director took away all the wrong notes from it. Happy sugar life, summer you were there, the lovers, I Wouldn't Choose Her Even if the World Ended, blue drop, Qualia the Purple, uta kata, Gunjo, lollypop or a bullet, GLT, black and white (i personally dont like the ending, but i can see why people do as it makes thematic sense), silent snow, like half of all one-shots ever printed, etc.You can have a yuri with a sad/bittersweet ending and have it not be shit.
>>4616751Let me add to >>4616769Tragic yuri needs yuri, not to be actually hetshitLara gets to be all explicit het for Luca and almost kiss him: Now to not be hetshit the show should be equally explicit with the yuri and show Lara at least almost kissing Mari. This doesn't happen and what little yuri there is is hidden in subtext symbolism nonsense which doesn't work if one of the girls (Lara) is invovled in explicit hetshit and then rejected because "true love naratives bad" themes and such. Lara is tragic hetshit, not yuriTo be yuri as it is, Luca shouldn't exist. Hetshit involving main girls should never be more explicit than yuriLara is het garbage. I put up with the het and symbolisms and build up and shit because I believed I'd get explicit payoff in the romance show about true love. Didn't happen and thus the show is a bunch of empty build up, drama and yapping and symbolisms that go nowhere except hetshit.
>>4616773All of this is based on the assumption that being explicit is more meaningful and real than being subtextual, which simply isn't true.Claiming that Lara makes as much sense as claiming that Fight Club is an action movie, it misses what the story is actually about over the most shallow aspects.
>>4616738The writers knew what they wrote, it was the director who was stubborn to change the ending.
>>4616783You mean the writer who wrote the TaiAri live action, including the ending she made up for the movie where the girls separate?. This goes beyond the director
I’m finally hopping on “She is Beautiful” but I’m seriously considering dropping it after Sayaka sleeps with the Russian guy to bribe him. It’s genuinely misery porn that serves absolutely no purpose beyond being gross. Does it get better? Is the ending at least worth it to shovel my vomit back in, for anyone that’s finished the raw?
>>4616799>spoilerHoly shit, I was just planning to start this. Thanks for the save.
Ghost Meets Gal finally did something interesting in episode 7.
>>4616802
>>4616803
>>4616805
>>4616802>finallyIt's 2 min per episode. 7 episodes of this is still less runtime than a full episode of most shows. Most shows take longer than that for "something interesting" to happen. Have some patience. Or don't watch shorts or wait until you can binge them or something, but saying "finally" after 14 minutes of show feels incredibly impatient
>>4616807I didn’t mean it as a bad thing for this anime; it’s fun and the characters are endearing, ironically, (it actually works better than Umayuru). My point was just that it makes it clear that one of them is possessive of the other, in a good way. The ghost girl even turned down the chance to be the "little sister" to someone popular, choosing instead to stay with the gal, that was really sweet too.
>>4616788Meds
>playing non-yuri vidya>get some surprise yuriCool
>>4616939What game?
Wouldnt go as far as the other anon and call it het, but no one would complain about the Lara ending if it just went full tragedy, and had the two kiss before Mari dies (and stays dead). You get to have your yuri, your kiss followthrough, and your pretentious ending. Im not a kissfag and will defend stuff like G-witch, but its different when its a series where the primary focus is on finding your true love instead of being a comedy/action series where the yuri isnt the focus. This is like the ONE series where where it's unforgivable to not have at least some kind of romantic reciprocation. They spend the whole series foreshadowing the kiss by having every prior attempt end in disaster, implying theyre not the TRUE love she's looking for, then you just never follow up on it. Even worse, Lara abandons their true love Mari after they've lost EVERYTHING (because of Lara) to find their new spark and learn independence, timeskips past anything actually worth a damn. Forgoes their dream of baking cake and true loves kiss, Maris confused about why she's leaving, Lara acts distant, then just boards a train and leaves. Could be temporary or forever, could still be in love or couldve had a falling out, we dont know. Even the mermaids are just waved off since they dont wake up for a few more years, so nothing happens. The Finale feels completely out of place, Is it cowardice or just a refusal to change the planned ending?Waste half the shows runtime on Lara trying to force herself to love the man she and the audience knows she doesnt love, but cant even take 5 minutes to develop the main couple after their confession. Even the side het couple was handled better than this.At this point, theres going to be a yuri retelling of sleeping beauty where they build up the sleeping girl being awoken by true loves kiss, only for the prince (female) to wake her up with a hug before leaving her behind; just for people to still defend it by calling it DEEP and MATURE
>>4616940Withering Realms. Like I said, not yuri (or romance in general) but I highly recommend it and the prequel Withering Rooms.
>>4616949I will never watch this especially after finding out that the ending is garbage but I read the thread when it finished airing out of morbid curiosity and that is more exposure to it than it deserved. A story that has an MC textually in love with the prince while tiptoeing around the possibility of even acknowledging gays exists is absurdly stupid in the present day. I used to be able to tolerate subtext as long as it was hopeful but I'm old and tired now, so they can miss me with that last century bullshit.
>>4617077The problem is that if you take into account foolish opinions and people who are intentionally dishonest, you’ll end up with a mistaken impression of the series, which is exactly what’s happening right now. That said, I’m not defending the series; it’s just that you’re dismissing it for the wrong reasons.This isn’t a story where heterosexual relationships exist but yuri relationships don’t, if that were the case, things would be simpler (because, honestly, that’s just Eupho). The problem here is the use of an incredibly stupid excuse: the idea that "true love" doesn’t mean being with the person you love, but rather asserting some foolish kind of independence, since, according to the director’s delusions, love doesn’t actually mean being together.If that sounds or seems stupid to you, you can understand where the real anger toward this shit comes from.
>>4617087>asserting some foolish kind of independenceIt's not even that, the director just said true love doesn't necessarily mean staying together, and when the writer was asked what Lara was feeling at the end, he just said she was driven by curiosity, and that they did it like this cause the original story also ended with separation.Independence talk was just a cope by the people struggling to defend the ending, turns out it had nothing to do with why Lara left, she was just so curious that she grew bored of staying with her true love after a few months, apparently she was intended to be that much of a shitty person.Also they treated the separation as final, but it's okay cause she'll always have memories of Mari or something.Just utter masturbatory trash, its only worth is providing a shining example for perpetuity of how idiotic it is to force bittersweet endings for the delusion of depth.
>>4617087> since, according to the director’s delusions, love doesn’t actually mean being together.And only if said love is between two girls too. I don’t think hetfags have to deal with any of this shit.
>>4617087>This isn’t a story where heterosexual relationships exist but yuri relationships don’tBut it's exactly what they put in the show.
>>4617077>A story that has an MC textually in love with the princeNot at all what happens.
>>4617162To be fair, in anime, Het relationships didn't end well either, and as for Het in general, well, you have 5 Centimeters Per Second and people pretending that's romantic, when it's the story of a bitch who is happy at the end of the day and an idiot who is consumed by a supposed childhood love.>>4617163No, if that had been the case (as in Eupho, where the het is immutable, but the yuri is viablely denyable or unimportant) this anime would be easier to hate, instead we have mental diarrhea from a director who thinks he's intelligent.

>>4617302Mikan looks right at home but its weird looking on all the others.
>>4617302They should all be wearing plain black t-shirts.
>>4617342You do in a typical chinese seafood eatery or restaurant.
Circled around to the original source.
>>4617367Should they?
Healthy student teacher relationship in yuri.
Is hanayamata yuri
>>4617476>is one of the holders of the yaya trinity yuri?Fucking kids these days...
>>4617448Hope they never catch her and she stays out of jail
>>4617476kinda
>>4617365Especially Xiko and Gosenzou.
>>4617338Oh it's that gyaru x gyaru manga! I love this one tons. So is this an official music video for the manga?
>>4617484I miss them so much /u/
>>4617654Never forgive Kadokawa
>>4617654>>4617655I’m pretty sure this has a game, and it looks better than the anime made by the most overrated director in existence.
As I predicted Lara got a general, proving that the yuri fanbase has no standards and proving the director and writers right.What a grim sight.
>>4617670
>>4617670If you check the creation date, it was made before the final episode. When it was made people thought the romance show would deliver romantic pay off. Before anyone knew the ending would be "timeskip several months, Lara is leaving because themes and such, you don't get a kiss or to enjoy the couple being together, we waste the final minutes in some uncessary separation because curiosity/independence/retarded themes and such"Now there's few who defend the show, and one of the defenders is the retard ESL, who is braindead and retarded, so you can't expect much taste or rationality from him
>>4617670yuri with a bad end is still yuri, so shut the fuck up.
>>4617719Is not yuri. Lara/Luca is explicit (even if rejected)Lara/Mari is nothing (bunch of symbolisms and shit and then true love bad and separation)Het should've alos been symbolism and shit, or not existed at all. Not het either. Just a bunch of shitty nothing. Worst show ever
>>4617655I fear they might ruin S2 of Mahoako as well
>>4617718Huh. Just checked and it was wrong about the creation date. Still not wrong about most people hating the show and the ending. Guess the thread is containment so people have somewheret to complain and post interviews to understand why the staff went full retard and mock their ideas. Unless you'd have preferred every post in that thread to be in the general yuri threads. It's best Larashit gets it's own containment, but at some point it should stopp getting threads made. Is a bunch of nothing, clearly not yuri
>>4617726>>4617747No one cares, loser.
>>4617752Clearly >>4617670 cares to rightfully hate the show. His conclusion is wrong because most hate what the show did, so yuri fans have standards>>4617719 cares enough to keep coping the show is yuri because the harsh reality of wasting so much time on pointless garbage is hard to accept
>>4617732These are not even equivalent examples; what happened with Kemono was ultimately a clash of egos between a cultist and a group of idiots, against a company that didn't really know what it was doing.I remember an Anon kindly showing all the yuri works and projects made or published by Kadokawa, compared to the 0 yuri things that director had done.
>>4617771I don't know what you have against the director, I don't care about his other work. What I know is that Kemono Friends (season one) is a masterpiece, whereas Kemono Friends (the IP) is the lowest of the low gacha slop garbage.All of the soul and sauce come from his anime.
>>4617762Who cares
>>4617778And in the case of MahoAko, the soul and sauce the manga. So as long as the anime stays faithful, it's fine. Kadokawa won't go "go full original" which is what it would take to ruin MahoAko adaptation
>>4617782You apparently, since you can't stop replying. Not caring is not replying. Replying inherently means caring. Admiteddly, not much. But hey, if you need to solve captcha, you care enough to bother to solve it
>>4617784But the Mahoako anime did add original stuff. Namely, it made the sauce lewder. The manga didn't have nipples until later in the run.
>>4617786No need to play semantics, you know what I mean by going full original: I mean the story. Making up shit that doesn't happen in the manga. Showing more than the manga in scenes that are already there is not the same
>>4617778>I don't know what you have against the director, Yes, I don't know why I have to complain about a cretinous piece of shit, who didn't lift a finger when someone who was supposedly his friend was treated like garbage and harassed by a cult of mentally retarded people, and then that same idiot acted like he didn't know anything, as if nothing was his fault and nobody had been harmed.>>is a masterpieceNo, it's just a good series for kids, especially those big kids without a childhood, like the same people who glorified My Little Pony back in the day.You remind me why I hate and distanced myself from this series, and no, it wasn't Kadokawa, it was the director and his stupid fans.
>>4617785Me and who else?
From the December Megami. Lots of hand holding and eye contact.
Is this the only instance of anime censorship actually improving upon a yuri manga?
>>4617816huh>>4613965>two weeks agoI'm surprised to see this one again.It's Honkai Impact, it's Kiamei and Bronseele, it's exactly what you would expect, I just didn't expect this game to get any attention.
>Hibike/LycoReco/LWA/Lara but done absolutely rightBased
>>4617888did they start dating or something?
>>4617915
>>4617916
>>4617888It helps that the author of that manga makes oneeloli porn.
>>4617888These examples aren’t even equivalent, and they should never be placed in the same category, it’s stupid.>>4617965one of us.
>>4617934This is a prequel; the girl on the left is the official girlfriend of the third male protagonist, and her arc is literally the manly guy protecting his girl from the crazy loser with powers, who will end up just becoming part of that third male protagonist's harem in the most botched way possible, since Frenda is worth less as a character than people want to accept; not even her zombie is treated with respect.
>>4617888I didn't bother watching the anime while it was airing since people here said it was just goggleable. Is it actually worth watching?
>>4617977>>people here said it was just goggleableThat might have applied to the manga, maybe, but what the anime covered and the way it did it wasn't subtle with the two pairings it established. It's not "Googleable" when things are so obvious.
>>4617972This Raildex shit is just shitposting at this point.
>>4617980How do we save Raildex from the hetshit author?
>>4617985They tried the "female MC spinoff" at least twice and both times they made that female MC a haremette of one of the male MCs and both times the female MC appeared to have powers and agency and lost all of it when the male MCs showed up.It's beyond saving. Put everything to the torch and start anew.
>>4617985its genuinely not even worth salvaging anymore
>>4617978is it just because the anime added a scene where they fondle eachothers tits or something? or was there actual substance
>>4617985In addition to what you’ve already been told, things get much worse when you realize that this entire universe is built around Touma—which becomes even more glaring once you understand the meaning of his surname. The attempts at spin-offs are nothing more than pathetic ploys to appeal to an audience that has long since lost interest in this obsolete harem format; they offer the false illusion that these girls actually matter, when, in reality, their entire existence revolves around one man. Then you have a bitch like Birdway, who is nothing but annoying and petulant. So, as far as the female characters go, this series is beyond saving.
>>4618001There is a reason why I said that the two couples were obvious.
>>4617934>moans in Chinese
>>4617897No but this page is the closest thing to Nagi implying that she may like Ruri
>>4618019
>>4618020
>>4618021that mini arc was great for rurixnagi
>>4617985I don't get why some people want to "save" a het series from being het. Just accept that's what it is. There's fuck tons of yuri authors and franchises you could spend your time supporting.
I was thinking about how you never hear anything in the news about a college girl getting gangraped by her sorority sisters after taking ketamine off another girl's clit. I assume that's because they enjoyed it and don't bitch about it.
>>4618079The girls are too good to not be gay.
>>4618120No, they're not, they're super overrated, like all Index stuff, by the way.
>>4618122Yeah? Well, you know that's just like, uh, your opinion, man.
>>4618118I imagine it's mostly "OMG Jenna dared Kaylee to lick her pussy and she actually did it!!!" type drunk shenanigans.
>>4618128No, it isn't. The only reason someone could defend these characters is if they're a waifufag. Beyond a very few exceptions, these characters aren't really memorable. For the most part, they're just decorations to make the male protagonists look better, and those male protagonists are canonically superior to these girls, by the way.
>>4618133>No, it isn't. The only reason someone could defend these characters [HEADCANON]. Beyond a very few exceptions, [HEADCANON]. For the most part, [HEADCANON], and those male protagonists [HEADCANON].
>>4618134"Just because you have shitty standards doesnt mean I have to lower mine..."
>>4618136Don't insult shit like that.
>>4618136Who are you quoting?
>>4618134That's not what headcanon means.

What are we reading/watching this Halloween
>>4618003>>4618019Fine, i'll give it a shot.
HAPPY YURIWEEN
>>4617786The anime making this trash somehow even worse is an accomplishment I suppose. Going from a trash fire to a whole dumpster inferno.
>>4618240
How to make a great yuri:>Yayas get their own consolation girlfriend>Explicit relationship>None of the girls involved with the yuri have current or prior relationships with boys>Foot licking scene >Happy ending :DIt's as shrimple as that
Hagure Idol gets anime which is strange as hell considerng it basically porn on all sides.
>>4618171YoruKura wouldve been a great halloween anime if it didn't drop the ball so hard. >>4618247Mayonaka is somewhat halloweenish with all the vampires. might rewatch it tonight
>>4618255MahoAko's success starting to show its influence.
>>4618279If they think they gonna ride on that they don't know what Hagure Idol is about.
i dont know what hagure idol is about
>>4618272>YoruKura wouldve been a great halloween anime if it didn't drop the ball so hard.
Letting your daughters go to a event unchaperoned in yuri
>>4618248>>Yayas get their own consolation girlfriendRule of the Universe is that Yayas never get any girlfriends
>>4618356We need more scenes in yuri where the main yuri couple is implied to be raped by another random yuri couple.
>>4618329All I know is that it doesn't belong here. And that Asumi would be a far better choice for someone wanting MahoAko's audience. Hagure Idol is for the het ecchi audience
>>4618364>>Hagure Idol is for the het ecchi audienceA quick Google search makes that clear.
>>4618361Not really, the only rule is that Yaya doesn't end up with the MC, who is usually her childhood friend, that would be the joke, on the other hand a Tomoyo is a different thing and she only loses because the author feels like it.
Post Avengers level threat lesbians.
>>4618373
>>4618374They said lesbians not bi-sluts.
>>4618381You have no idea who those two are, do you?
>>4618373>>Avengers level threatAlthough, it’s worth noting that if we’re talking about the MCU, these would be threats that don’t last beyond their debut.

Saki was just a prey this whole time.

>>4618484GD isn't catastrophic so it can still come back. And it's best to get as much PES out of the game as possible as early as possible.
BOO!
>>4618475>>4618484Shit happens. We have two more matches. We just need to win those.
>>4618499
>>4618363Also more OLs trolling for JKs, becoming a JKs sugar mommy through her JD years till she also becomes a OL and then? Breakup so the younger OL farms her own JK?
>>4618405I don't know., Saucenao could not match it and Google would not search for it because it thought the characters were under age. I was hoping someone here would recognize it.
>>4618484Did you have a stroke while writing this?
Live for love, not for laws!
