It's perfect. Perfection. I love it. Choking kink. Yes queen.

Divine. My gayness has leveled up as well.

one of the most nostalgic yuri couples.
love them

^Oh god now I can't unsee it

season two is off to a very gay start! I'm always surprised how the series simultaneously manages to feel biased against the yuri pairings while still giving them better chemistry than the guys

yet another reason why sapphics should have been the majority population.

@Ourdespair to be fair yaoi has some pretty strong animes that not only were popular the season they aired but they were strong contestants for anime of the year like banana fish or yuri on ice so it makes sense there´s more of it
i think yagate kimi ni naru is the closest a yuri anime has gotten to be mildly popular the season it aired

PD i´d also love a second season for YKN and adachi to shimamura

Their chemistry on stream is unreal, and their rivalry-but-actually-really-care-for-each-other thing is fantastic. I'm honestly surprised I don't see more people on this ship in the English circles.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) riko

@Swag Wagon I was thinking about that as well

Akarin effect doesn't work on Amber, and she haft just been Alerted.

I have a MIGHTY NEED for a full series.

Yep, have done this as well, though I usually go for kisses slowly and controlled as to avoid this happening ;D

Oh gosh

This still hurts man. Im just glad that she's doing good according to Kanata :)))

^Yaoi has also always been a lot bigger than Yuri in general, even before Yuri on Ice (and well the anime adaption of Banana Fish). Way more of a seller, and the Fujoshi fandom is a way bigger force than anything Yuri fans have.

I don't think Yuri can currently compete with Yaoi in general, but I think in order to reach wider popularity levels Yuri needs some anime that aren't purely romance focused. I really love Yagate Kimi Ni Naru and Adachi To Shimamura, but they're both romance centric shows and I think it makes them more niche. Banana Fish is a crime drama with gay romance, and Yuri on Ice is a sports show with gay romance, so there is something there for viewers who aren't into the romance in both series. Which definitely helped with the popularity of both, because from what I know purely romance Yaoi often does very well but not nearly as well as those two.

It'd be cool if we got an epic sports anime with a lesbian romance, a crime drama, epic action fantasy, something along those lines. I don't think they'll be able to really compete with Yaoi still, especially the world wide popularity of Yuri on Ice, but I think we'd see a boon in popularity if Yuri anime branches into more genres. Only downside is the more popular something gets the more awful the fandom tends to get as well haha

Edit: Also something that really helped Yuri On Ice? Pro Ice Skaters were into the show as well, they spread word of mouth and did videos about it. The love from these celebs of the sports world really gave it reach even outside of anime fandoms.
