I don't get why everyone is so riled up with this. Is just 2 friends friendlily holding hands, sexually harassing eachother, calling eachother cute, and going to toilets together. Y'know, like perfectly normal friends do.

friendlily

FRIEND-LILY

This must become a thing. As expected of Nep, pure genius.

Oh for the love of Madoka, don't start this now. The hellfires of Euphonium will derail this thread again. It's yuri-bait and that's it. Look over there! Is that yet another Hino-san chapter? knocks out discussion with a metal bat

Damn it, for a sec I thought there was already a new chapter ! Now I'm disappointed

how much gayer can this get.

In my personal view, this has gone from 'gag manga' to 'Nettaigyo wa Yuki ni Kogareru' levels in the last few chapters. It might just hit peak 'Hana Ni Arashi' before very long.

I would say that this is beyond Nettaigyo. In this manga we know that the characters are 100% gay but one of them haven't realized yet. (Koguma)
Meanwhile in Nettaigyo both of them act gay but the author didn't label it as Yuri so it might end up being another Hibike Euphonium!

Wait, Hibike Euphonium isn't yuri!? I've only seen a few clips on youtube, but it seemed pretty lesbian romance-ish. The title sequence had the two girls connected by the red thread of fate, for goodness sake.

A lot of people already replied and i don't want to turn this thread into a Hibike Euphonium rant but you asked me something and i'll just answer it.

No, Hibike Euphonium ended up being Yuribait and they were "Just Friends" Everyone thought that it would end up being Yuri because of the way the author handled the story and the characters but in the end it wasn't.

That's why i said thay Nettaigyo might end up being another Hibike Euphonium (i hope not) because the mangaka said on her twitter that she didn't want to label Nettaigyo as a Yuri manga and that it was up to you whether you consider it Subtext or Yuri.
I'm scared...

Ummmm ooookaaaaay. I was just asking. Like I said I've only seen a few clips. I'm in no position to debate it yuri-ness. I was just just suprised to hear that it's not a yuri.

John, Johnny, Jonathan, sometimes just calling the devil will summon him. If you value peace, don't ask whether Hibiki Euphonium is yuri ever again. The yuri community has enough PTSD as it is.

ACK! Why couldn't you quote the edited post, where I deleted the extra 'just'. That version makes me look like an idiot. Well more of an idiot than I actually am.

P.S. It's just John, not Jonathan. You know John the Baptist and all.

Wait that made me sound like a religious right winger. I'm most assuredly not. That's just who I was named after.

If the the creator is leaving it up to the reader, to decide if something is subtext or not, doesn't it make it subtext by definition?

Holding hands in Japan = Dating

These scanlators are out of their minds. Super props to them.

Yes, but idk...the story is showing how the characters feel jealousy or how they feel lonely when they don't talk to each other. It's way too Gay to be considered Subtext, besides, the manga is published in a Yuri magazine so...

I'm seriously concerned about the health of the scanlators at this point. Has anyone checked on them lately?

She's just rubbing her back...

Seriously though, have you ever had someone do that? It's legit pretty amazing. Even more so if they mix in a little scratching with it.

Please in Mado-kami's tell me there is a physical release for this series

There is

Thank you so much!!! Hopefully we get a western release soon (my Japanese isn't nearly good enough to try reading it).

I just opened this page after 12 hours, and there's no new chapter. Yuri Ichigo must be lazy... or collapsed from exhaustion and are now in coma on a hospital bed, which is the same thing.

When you said “physical release” I thought you meant something different . . .

I almost dropped my phone just like Hino after Koguma's selfie.

Same... OH WAIT IT'S YOU AGAIN

As a fellow ipad user, I did as well.

Yeah I think those are in a couple of chapters by now <_<

I said, "what." out loud

Subtext is defined by implicit signs that there might be romance but nothing is explicit and officially canonized. If the creator leaves it up for interpretation that's 100% subtext since nothing will ever get canonized even if it's absolutely filled with tons of 'obvious' sexual/romantic tension.

That's why I'm not fond of subtext. It's ok to have lite-romance with explicit canon pairs, that's not subtext. Subtext is unbearable because you're stuck in 'hooking up' limbo with infinite teasing and no solid foundation forever.

well it's been 4 hours since this post.

I think we can agree that Yuri Ichigo are dead. RIP

Well aren't you overgeneralizing a lot there. Unfortunate as that is for you, it's not the standard at all. Asia is a pretty big place.

Let's forget other countries, Japanese girls hold each others hands and kiss each other on the cheeks frequently. And that's just "friendship". I know we Yuri fans make that "omg handholding" jokes a lot, but it's the least homosexual thing two girls can do. Unless this whole joke is supposed to be sarcastic. Then I'm sorry for bringing this up, I just found it a little weird. Even if it's a manga that's supposed to exaggerate things.

For those who don't know, Hibike Euphonium is the WORST show in this universe. It's a disgusting, queerbaiting piece of dog shit. They show us "moments" and give us Yuri fans some hope. BUT NOTHING HAPPENS. Both girls are straight as hell, Kumiko even gets a bf in the novels. And that slutty whore Reina is thirsting after a teacher. NEVER EVER watch that show if you're expecting some lesbian goodies. I hope the writer/director of the show slowly dies from skin cancer.

^ You might need to chill a bit, mate.

I was just about that mad regarding Love Lab, so it's sort of relieving to see others get mad about yuri bait.

But I'd prefer to focus on this nice series.

No. I wasted my time on this crap. My anger is valid. I'm pretty sure most people here would agree with me.

I heard it's worse than Euphonium? Never watched it, and after reading your post, never will.

But you're right. Let's forget them motherfucking queerbaiters and focus on the actual lesbians.

If you only watch season 1 you can pretend like it's yuri and then the only thing you have to do is never watch anything kyoani again
also I agree, your anger is valid and if we just chill on shit like this people will keep doing it
