I once think of making thread about "unbalanced popularity". That is when 1 girl is way more popular than her designated couple

holy- this is adorable

People who deny subtext yuri are like those authority figure in zombie movie who deny everything and only accept it when their town is overrun by zombie They try to fit every new things into their short-minded model instead of catching up to the signs

It must be hard falling in love with your best friend who's in love with someone else... And always these characters are such a kind peoples... That characters are pretty familiar ones. I was thinking of adding less familiar characters as well, but I think the more familiar ones are better to start. (I'll only go with Yuri ones for now. I don't think my heart can handle the ohter ones.-like hibike euphonium or kuzu no honaki- ) (Actually, my plan was to write a few sentences about all of these characters, but I couldn't get out of the - I don't want to do anything, just wanna sleep- mode. - I'll definitely make up it later "I make a list for every post I say that" - ugh Im a damn it lazy person.)

>>456 You are a kind person yourself. If you can view those characters as kind people they must be really have big heart

i just watch a video that bring Home Alone2’s pigeon lady conversation about “preserving materials”. In a yuri culture that celebrate "explicit, blatantly-tell-to-your-audience-i-am-a-lesbian” yuri i wonder what has been lost. i mean it like this, while browsing youtube looking for people to invite sometimes I see comments either complaining or disappointing wheter a ship is ‘canon’ (do they love each other?) or ‘canon’ (yes they do love each other but do they date? ) Here are what lost among those community/people: every girl with their own love stories, every shipping with their cute or funny moments. Community is really missing up if they judge a yuri couple by their labelling. It is like the saying “miss the forest for the trees”. They turn blind eye on “forest” (love that is happening in the story) because the “tree” doesn’t fit their narrow-minded criteria

>>466 I understand you... İt feel like some peoples interesting Yuri for looking different things or something like that (ı don't want to being rude but some peoples just read for h0rny things), (especially smut korean webtoon readers) not enjoying whit characters cute relationship. Actually these peoples just interesting lesbians not Yuri... (Most of the people who read Yuri in my country are in this category.) I don't think Yuri is only about lovers. Friends or siblings or anything is also included in Yuri. Of course, they don't care it. Really It took a long time to explain to my friend for Yuri is not p0rn. The Japanese and Chinese Yuri I've seen generally don't care about sexual orientation but especially in korean and american webtoons, this is given a lot of place (with some exceptions). This effect has also started to be seen in new Japanese Yuris (focused on romance ones) (for example, some manga starts like -my name is bla bla and I'm a lesbian- ) I don't understand why they need to specify that. Peoples are starting to forget that love isn't all about sexuality, don't have to be a lesbian to fall in love with a girl... why do they need to go out when they have such a strong bond? Actually, first time I saw your posts, I said (hey this dude really like Yuri ) I thought I had found the Yuri culture I was looking for for a long time... so it's fun to read your posts. Please don't lose your hope. I'm sure there's someone out there really likes yuri and want to join your community.

two broken girls, one wishing to be whole, and the other wishing her own end… I retrieve this pic on September 2020 during self-isolation. It feels.. isolated. It feel weird having contact with people and at the same time not

>>563 >and at the same time not I have something to ask about this is this like; "It feel weird having contact with people but sometimes it doesn't feel weird." or like this, "I'm having contact with people but at the same time I feel like I cannot having contact with them." ? or something different?

>>565 The 2nd one. I had someone in house bringing food to chair in front of my isolation room. There are people in house but I cant interact directly.

>>563 Hospitalized lesbian

>>600 >Hospitalized lesbian Is not you right?

>>601 No. By the way I catch up with Lycoris this time

>>602 Thats nice. I don't have to worry about giving spoilers. \⁠(⁠･⁠◡⁠･⁠)⁠/

Unexpected yuri

>>618 Their hats remind me of Sky Striker.

Reading new student council arc because I didn’t remember (and I only watched the adaptation during highschool) So apparently people shipped Daisy with Minorin and Usami came into picture. Daisy become possessive of Usami is the closest thing to yuri this manga have

Speaking about Kill Me Baby I know it got following in Japan. I still don't understand the title

Wait! what is happening on there? I just randomly see it in game, Osu mascots gives us some yuri huh... Interesting, I'll take a look to wiki.

>>914 I don't know about osu but if I remember correctly Dance Revolution and some small yuri fanarts

Going to church after long time. The mini theme was Rosario. I'm thinking Mother's Rosario

>>1023 Speaking of seiyus; A Webnovel I read it before gets serilization. And today we got a voiced pv. Unexpected thing is that the voice actors of Suletta and Miorine are voicing Sendai and Miyagi. G_Witch is quite popular right now and many of the fans have become interested in this novel now. Pretty good choice huh. https://youtu.be/HkU093vh0hE

I don't know why but Reddit suddenly started r/place again. So I was think "probably we can't see madoka this year or it will be erased in no time" but they are made it and defending it for hours. (update) We are under attack now!

>>1056 Finally they added ohter colors. it looks better now.

>>1056 >probably we can't see madoka this year or it will be erased in no time" What

>>1058 Do you know what r/place is? Or am I made a mistake with the sentence again? If you dont know what is r/place I can explain it.

>>1059 Hmm I am guessing reddit. That there is a subreddit that is either attacked/or yearly Madoka event there that almost got canceled this week. How's my guess?

>>1058 oh I forgot to say that, there will be one or more madomagi pixelarts every time (this one is third but who's care) Here are the ones made in 2017 and 2022

>>1060 well not madoka event but yeah people attacking to each other for their pixelarts or just trolling. r/place is a pixelart war or something like that (it was accualy a april fool) you can just put one pixel in 5 minutes because of that we need to move with a group or a community. Also thans for trying to make a guess .

>>1061 2nd one looks cute

Not yuri per se but this is a yuri trope I like Here is the webtoon context. The webtoon is story about 6 girls of various age living in an apartment while hiding something from their daily life. As you can guess each of them got their life web tangled among them. 2 among the 6 are: Chaerim (glasses one,closet otaku) and Sujin (reluctant school beauty but asocial). They went to same highschool and these 2 are in a peer of 5 weirdos girl (pic 1-left. Sujin have her own focus but Chaerim story mainly about school. Now on the conflict. 1 day after hearing some gossips about Sujin badmouthing her, Chaerim remember old scar from elementary school about 'those friends' who take advantage of each other (this gave her "give and take" principle in her relation with her friends). Then she doesn’t wake Sujin up (they live in 1 apartment unit) (now that I re read my post pic1-right foreshadow so much down to the atmosphere) and go to school on her own. In school 1 of the 5 girls mentions the lack of Sujin. (now I didn’t read this story from beginning so it is not that I pay attention but even among the 5, the other 3 see these 2 as a “menu set” , Chaerim and Sujin always come to school together since middle school). We are then seeing a despairing Chaerim (pic2) through morning. In same morning they get into verbal fight in classroom. During lunch break they talk about the gossip where we get this funny interaction Chaerim:do you think she heard about the rumor? friends: . . . why do you ask us? Chaerim: even so there should be things that I don’t know about her (Chaerim meant this as what Sujin talk with other 3) the 3 then start going on how dense Chaerim is for not noticing that she is the only one that Sujin consider friend. Following that this is something that seep into my consciousness, their friend talk that it is amazing how Chaerim and Sujin become friend even though nothing is same about them, hobby or anything else. The grade school trauma Chaerim remember make her doubt that Sujin think of her as friend. then we get a flashback that look like pic3. Chaerim ask her sister (also 1 of the 6 residents) and everything about Sujin’s habbit start to make sense past trauma in pic1-right This arc happen in chapter 160-165 or so Their debut chapter can be seen here (korean https://comic.naver.com/webtoon/detail?titleId=459545&no=7 up ch17) English fan translation up to chapter 112 -https://mangatoto.com/chapter/120644/2 Need to navigate from inside chapter -https://www.taadd.com/book/DEAR%2C+ONLY+YOU+DON%27T+KNOW%21.html This is the main manga reader site I use. But it is difficult to be bookmarked and the layout change depend on what browser (or even private browsing mode) you are using.

A friendly warning to don’t speedrun a manga. I read 90 chapters spreaded in the last 4 hours. It eat up time I could’ve use on my laptop On the other side this is also a trope i like. Among circle of friend of referring their precious as "our <name of the character>"

>>1135 >It eat up time I could’ve use on my laptop Agh... I know that feeling very well. >also a trope i like It's a trope that exists in my language, so I didn't pay much attention to it before. If I stop and think about it, that's actually a nice thing. Also, my 4 year old cousin is with me and I've been playing with cars all day for 4 days. I like cars but I can't take it anymore. please help... >>1117 I have a thought about it but I can't decide it that what I should write Oh and I meet someone online, I don't know much about their interests but sometimes we talk about some yurihime manga. I can try to invite them if you want.

>>1137 >1st spoiler xD hang in there >2nd spoiler well if you can accompany them here. I plan to continue Magirevo 12 this week ( among watching Yohane) so I dont think i can post much at least for the next 1 week.

>>1135 more example

This is a webtoon that I read 2-3 chapters of during my webtoon day. I want to make comparison to 2 other series like this. Disclaimer this is non-yuri (hetero even) . while looking for image to post it turn out this still continue with mc pursuing her love. Now that I look at the trailer, mc is pursuing highscool romance life from get go. I don’t remember it at all. Odd Girl Out. the tagline was “being a ducklett among swans. I will survive!” The premise is the normal /below average girl (Nari) somehow get a peer of girls above her. The 2 series i want to compare are Watamote and Bocchi the Rock -Watamote premise: a girl (Tomoko) become cast out because her mind become adult too soon and she got wrong idea on how to be popular. It didn’t matter during middle school but she become conscious about it in highschool. She end up circled by girls who are peak of their own peers -Bocchi the Rock premise: (disclaimer I only watch 1 episode of this in beginning of season without sub). a shut-in girl (Bocchi) / with social anxieties. She join band and overcome her anxieties. In-series comparison: Nari get the 3 girls right out the bat on day 1 due to string of simple events and she just kinda stuck there. Also the mc IS normal. She doesn’t have social anxieties like Bocchi nor weird thought like Tomoko. In Watamote the girls who flock to her feel natural. It start with being put in group of 4 during school trip. Once they know each other they start saying hi, sit in same group during 2nd year’s graduation bbq. She then doing her own thing that accidentally attract other girl/look like she is the only one who can do that. Bocchi join on her volition to change herself. <Yuriness: for Watamote see next section and * below. ODO is published in mainstream webtoon and you know Korean weren’t progressive. As for Bocchi it’s been 11 months since I saved a screenshot of the PV and during my pixiv search in that time I have yet to save single Bocchi pic. but I know the series is popular and got tons of yuri artwork. It lean toward "cute girl doing cute things" rather than harem. Meta comparison: Watamote is “old generation otaku” loner, Bocchi is for newer “lonely current gen” people who like anime. The girls in watamote have pronounced quirk once you get to know them. OGO simply display that the 3 girls are beauty. Bocchi have. . normal girls Watamote girls feel like a ‘normal’ harem where each girl are made pronounced to cater to various reader**. Bocchi ones are normal, girls quirk aren’t pronounced but still different. The vibe I get from Bocchi are normal girls helping an anxious girl and they become normal friends. Each of Watamote girls have friends or peer outside of Tomoko but when they interact most attention goes to her. As for OGO I am tempted to say maybe the girls are just there to stunt mc’s life but this is probably because I don’t know the series enough (Im not reading 350+ chapters of het). In Bocchi’s case the social difference isn’t as pronounced as this one. **I’m not bashing it. I have 2 volumes of the series: one because it shows Tomoko can do things I can’t the other because I save a lot of pages*. side note. People separate watamote into periods: 1 classic watamote. 1st year of highschool. Tomoko was trying to be popular by (mis) following stuff she learn in internet. Yet another thing that make her different than normal girls is at the core she is a natural loner. She is really equipped to deal with having no peer to hang-out with during 1st year. The era that propel watamote’s success, readers find it the first character that give them both relatable highschool experience (this was 2008 mangas didn’t really branched like today) and a hardcore otaku in form of an unkempt girl. 2 transition watamote. 2nd year. Still with her antic but she interact with more characters, 3 modern watamote. We harem now!
