Actually author said it's 拗らせ系青春漫画 (rebellious youth manga?) and not yuri.

Really? O_O

So this whole series was intended to be click bait and a waste of time since the beginning?

Rebellious youth my ass.
Sound like "is just a phase" bs excuse....

Come to think of it, yuri falls into the "rebellious youth" category but yaoi get a pass...

My heart still hurts everytime I think about NnA. It was one of my favorites till been cancelled...

I blame most of the yuri fandom. Lets face it, most of the fandom just want to see girls kissing and banging. People don't care about a solid plot. That's why Citrus is so popular, the plot is boring, but as long as girls are banging every now and then people will read it. But taste is subjective so there is nothing we can do about it. The most popular will survive.

nah. yuri fans want to see yuri when something is advertised as yuri.

If the story was finished as intended, maybe we can call it yuri. With the way it ended now, we can call it "yuri crush" at most.

I totally agree with you, It was one of my favorites untill It been cancelled... I'll love see the true ending, at lesat like novel...

Read it all in one go, and all I can say is…

Tsukasa is such a martyr. There’s nothing wrong with selflessness, of course, but as a person who’s looking at their situation from afar, I can’t help but feel pity. She deserves to be happy just like everyone else, but she can’t have that because of this messed up circular love triangle they have going. The unfortunate thing is, Kotooka might return Washio’s feelings in the future, and poor Tsukasa will forever be the third wheel who will suffer for the rest of her days… except, of course, if she finds another person that she would like and who will like her back.

Ahh, I usually like love triangle stories, but today after reading this, I found out that it frightens me, especially if this is happening in real life with real people involved.

Also, I’m not much of a yaoi fan at all, but I kinda liked how it was written here. I doubt I would enjoy other yaoi manga/anime though, except maybe if I like the characters well enough like Kyousuke and Subaru.

I don’t think I would re-read this story. It’ll just hurt my heart. Is there a chance for a happier sequel? (Oh, and just now I found out that it’s been cancelled? What a bummer.)

This is sad that the yaoi conclusion is more fleshed out than the yuri conclusion.

I never thought I'd say this, but the yaoi is way better and cuter than the yuri. What the heck happened with this manga?

Het MC, unnecessary male love interest, uninteresting and illogical side friends.

So pretty much entire manga was stupid besides the yaoi lol.

When the yaoi is better in a yuri manga, you know something is wrong.

It was axed, and mistakes were made when "finishing" it.

It's like one of those stories that could have been resolved in one page if one character just speaks their mind already.

You mean 90% of yuri?

I thought it was even a little worse than that, in that it seemed all along as if the whole point of the “A knows that B likes C and C knows that A likes B but doesn’t know that C knows, etc.” (or however it went) merry-go-round was the corrosive effect of people keeping secrets from their friends. Then the ending was like “Secrets—they’re great! And a lot of that romantic attraction?—Not even real!”

So not a “things didn’t go the way people wanted” ending as much as a “You know how you thought the story was about X? It was really about not-X! Hah! Fooled you! ending.

And those are tough to pull off.

Hell, 90% of romance, comedy, and drama too. Even a good chunk of action movies.

I don't really remember many stories in other genres that rely on miscommunication to such silly degrees as in yuri (I'll admit I don't read romance outside of yuri manga, though).

A hell of a lot of comedy relies on misunderstandings or one (or more) people hiding their motivations for contrived reasons. Romance, well, you gotta keep up that tension right?

Maybe the author of this is a fan of Sasameki Koto and she hated how the crossdressing kid didn't found love so she made this manga in hopes of finding love for that kid.

I wanna share this with soooo much people... It's the truth xD 90% are like this and we can still enjoy them, I don't think it's a bad thing, and even less if we have in consideration real problems usually are for the same thing, for not speak what we think.

Also, I'm not into yaoi, but they are so cute together o.o

I know, seriously. I see this all the time, and every time I'm like: "But...But they've never had sex. Not once."
