First I came across "Kiniro Mosaic"
I watched Sound Euphonium ( Because I thought it was Yuri [...])

Tfw you get into something with the wrong expectations
This really just reminds me of when I saw the comments for a video of the OP of Soul Eater NOT, and more than half were ppl trashing it for being CGDCT, and nothing like Soul Eater, which is shit logic, that's completely on them. It's like walking into a perfectly good bakery and being really mad that they don't sell socks and telling everyone how shit it is
For what it is, Kinmoza is great, it's adorbs and funny. It sure isn't as lewd and gay as Sakura Trick, but it doesn't make it any less heartfelt and adorbs ;A; Hibike is great too, it fuels my shipper heart u_u
tl;dr: ppl watching the wrong anime with wrong expectations and then resenting those series make me salty
Ah, it probs doesn't help that you watched one of the gayest (probs one of the most yuri fanservicey) anime ever, and how there isn't a lot of yuri anime to begin with. That just sets your yuri standards really tbh, I feel like most anime yuri fans nowadays aren't even watching actual yuri (what is there to watch), there aren't any officially labeled as such airing (now or in the last year tbh), so most content themselves with what they see as potential gay/subtext ;____;
That's why I check out the anime thread a lot, it's really useful to get ppl's feedback.
You legit have ppl look into new, to be aired anime like "oh there's a lot of girls/the ENTIRE CAST is girls, I'll watch the first ep to test it out", and the following reaction is like, "Ah well, nothing there but it was cute/fun/good so I'll keep watching it" or "I see potential I'll keep watching" or just "nah".
And often you'll have other people bring out what they've spotted like "hey guys this has potential shit going on" and the rest see that and they're like "oh really?? Alright I'll go check it out" and it just spreads and ppl update each other and well that's cool
