There are some spoilers for Octave in later chapter,so be sure to read all 6 volumes of Octave before Yuri danshi.
You have been warned.
I haven't read Octave.. Is it good?
Octave is great! It's a little angsty (that ain't a bad thing tho) if I recall properly but it's great.
How angsty is it? I don't like too much angst and drama in my yuri. It's why I dropped "The Feelings We All Must Endure".
Mmm, sorta angsty, but not too much into the melodramatic side that most angsty drama mangas have. It's pretty realistic compared to the usual stuff and better paced. Personally consider it one of the few good yuri dramas, I find most of them to be a shoddy drag/repetitive/cringey-soap-operas.
