See ya again, Eri-sensei.
And as much as I love loli, I found grown-up Yuzu is hella hotter than her younger age....

YOOOOOOOO DISASTER LESBIAN AND ULTIMATE DOMINATRIX ARE BACK AT IT

See? You CAN have a character attracted to a minor and still don't lewd the loli. Mimika should be an icon

Also, Mimika actually firing back? I've been blessed

Are people still complaining about the ending? Come on people, it's obvious they love each other but she just wants to let Yuzumori have a normal childhood and they can focus on their relationship later.

People still keep complaining about the ending for whatever reason.... Can you just stop?
Ending itself is not bad. Actually in my point of view, it pretty good.
Also I gave a big like to the comment above me

The ending is good, Mimika did the right thing to wait for Yuzumori right before they do some advance lover stuff. hope the author atleast make extra of middle school or HS Yuzumori and adult Mimika.

Yuzumori-san!

I miss this manga. It was perfect to me. It deserves an anime but isn't lewd or controversial enough to get one.

Yeah, yuri manga don't really get anime unless A) they're aimed at straight men, or B) they portray a clearly deviant or unhealthy relationship to implicitly support the cultural belief that sapphic romance is deviant and unhealthy.

Mimika is far too dedicated to making sure her interactions with Yuzumori never cross the line into ones that would be inappropriate for a child of her age to be sufficiently melodramatic.

Not sure "Bloom Into You" fits your framework.

And yet, it's getting an anime.

There are always outliers to any trend. But for every Bloom into You or Sasameki Koto there's 3-4 Happy Sugar Lifes or Sakura Tricks.

Also, I forgot the 3rd genre of yuri that gets animes: where it's completely played for laughs.

Well, you could say the same thing about yaoi manga.

Like yuri, It's really niche and doomed to a late night slot on TV. Few anime companies are willing to take the risk.

I don't think it's fair, because het romance gets a lot more screentime, but knowing the state of society in Japan and of the anime industry in general, it's hardly surprising.

Oh it's absolutely true of yaoi too. Straight people aren't really interested in seeing healthy, happy queer relationships they want that gayngst because that's what society tells them the authentic queer experience is.

People need to complain about pretty much any series because it’s important to prove that they’re so much smarter and have so much better taste than the people who like it OK the way it is. In fact, they get money for complaining about it—I mean, they must, right? Because I don’t understand the depth of their commitment otherwise.

People are allowed to not like things. I mean, I had no problem with the ending but if others did that's their prerogative as a consumer of media.

I really liked those extra bits - and the manga overall - though I thought the elementary school angst stuff could have all been cut - it wasn't what the story was about.

And As for the person a few posts back in mentioning Sakura trick - since when was that het porn yuri?? It was for fans of yuri clearly! Not straight guys who just get off on lesbians - they are not gonna like Sakura trick, which is about their romance and just has kissing! Sure it's not a great story or high art yuri lol - but it is pure yuri for yuri fans, just of simpler and comedic nature!

It also WAS using the kisses as part of its appeal but that was still appealing to yuri fans not hentai fans who do not normally watch yuri! Also, it was the first ever anime to feature LOTS of yuri kissing - EVER - and you have a problem with that?? It broke new ground for a yuri anime. There are precious few other shows with even 1 real yuri kiss! And just because there are better more quality serious yuri manga out there they could do, does NOT detract from it at all.

Of course, that goes without saying. I’m always interested in hearing what people do and don’t respond to in manga.

But there seems to be a devoted cadre of people who feel compelled to express some version of, “Ermahgerd, I wish that series was still running so I could drop it again!” every time a particular title gets a positive mention.

That I don’t get.

I forgot this exists.

The Kodoma-ing in these extra chapters is getting out of hand. It's also extremely hilarious

The explanation that it's written like a battle manga was pretty insightful, and with that in mind a few scenes are more understandable.

I'd repressed that wonderful image of Mimika's dad in the bath, for the same reason she could weaponize it, I guess.

Battle yuri romance.

Can anyone explain why the Kodama exclamations? What does it mean? As far as I know Kodama are those little white spirit yokai men thingies of Japanese legend.

What would they even call that? That actually sounds pretty cool.

^ that sounds like Negima - if you made Negi a female character.

Kodama!!
