Lesbian and Yuri Anime/TV/Novel/General Discussion Thread

It's... about 99% not yuri, sadly. The heroine is kind of a accidental chick magnet, but it's only played for humor and doesn't go anywhere. Sorry....
What is there to be sorry about, friend? Let's first remember, this is about the premise of a cartoon adapting a 4 panel comic.

I will argue the show in progress, an egg, as fragile and needing a further look under the lamp.

Meanwhile, Tomo's writer/author draws more eroge than just romance and compiled the story from its web template days mainly out of convenience and is likely to give up on it. Not what Tomo-chan needs.

I really think Tomo is a mascot for Q and that often in storytelling these days the Yuri part or pairing is like the aftermath of an assumed conclusion to that inquiry or introspection. Too deep for a 4 panel?

More pressure need instead be applied in the effort to let Yuri entertainment populate the tubes in a variety of surprising double takes and perhaps the anime version of Tomo could make that happen.

Fans often push for the conversations surrounding each new episode of any heteronormative to rather go that route.

I'll throw this last bit in, consideration about Tomo-chan's merits, for the protagonist does not espouse cluelessness only the chad counterpart. She reels and reacts around the same sex classmates a bit like Watamote's Tomoko. A look at either of these two perhaps better defines 21st century lesbianism. Or at the very least, how mangaka have come to interpret it.

And from the Tomo-chan mangaka's Twitter:

 
Keep meaning to get around to reading the Avatar Kiyoshi prequel novels to Avatar: TLA at some point. From what I've heard Kiyoshi is gay.

I read the first one. She's
probably bi, but she's dating a woman by the end of the novel and a lot farther from the end than Korra or She-ra. I haven't read the second novel but I have no reason to believe they stop during that.

Do you know if Spy Kyoushitsu is actually gay? It looks very much like some random harem, but some say that no actually it's straightbaiting and there are the gays (tm).

Initially when it appear it seems gay, but the summary actually mention there's gonna be a young man that lead them, so...
Article:
Excited by the prospect of working with the elite, Lily enthusiastically accepts. However, she is struck dumb when she arrives at Kagerou Palace and the true purpose of Tomoshibi and its hopeless situation comes into light. Joined by other problematic female spies along with a mysterious young man spearheading the operation, Lily realizes that this is not the ideal escapade she had pictured.

I want to get more into yuri manga, and I was a pretty big fan of Aoi Hana and Girl Friends. I hope I can find some stuff that's to my taste!
Sasameki Koto is often compared to Aoi Hana. Hope you like angst.

Bloom into you/yagate kimi ni naru is a recent yuri manga that was very good (also has an anime).

If you want something with a bit older characters, I quite like Still Sick, and Crescent Moon and Doughnut.

I'm more than fine with angst, if it helps the story. I find that I'm pretty flexible with what a story asks of me, so a lot of my favorite stuff tend to be all over the place.

I did hear about Bloom Into You a lot in particular, been procrastinating on watching the show.

I'll second that. Sasameki Koto is a favorite of mine when I first getting into yuri. I'd say it's as much or more comedy as it is angst.

(Some of the crossdressing humor probably hasn't aged well, however.)
 
Watched the first two episodes of Magical Revolution
It reminded me of why I liked the series in the first place before I really hated the way that they handled vampires and the status quo in the end of volume 2. This is a series that causes me pain because it's so great and perfect in some most areas but there are just one or two things it does that I really don't like. Like if Anis had reacted more positively to the vampire immortality and then convinced Al to work together with them instead of defending the status quo it would be damn near perfect. I should probably read volume 3 at some point, I'm debating whether to do it after the anime finishes but if it finishes in the same place as volume 2 then I might be too angry at it again.
