I've been reading Princess x Pistolier on tapas, and I really enjoyed it, so now I am looking for yuri that contains any of the following:
steam/dieselpunk technology, dour industrial landscapes, heavy coats, militarism, women in (practical) armor, loyalty and honor, militarism, authoritarian governments, seriours and strict characters.

Anything with characters that seem sort of gloomy or shy or unkempt or unapproachable? I'm thinking of characters like Makino from Shells and AlternaRock, Makio from Ikoku Nikki, Maki from Run Away With Me, Girl, Shou from Dark Forest, White Road and even Sorawo from Otherside Picnic. The ones who fit best what I have in mind, in both appearance and personality, are probably Makino, Shou and Makio (but I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to have the names Makino, Makio and Maki one after the other lol). I'm looking for this loner type of character.

Can you guys recommend me some manga/anime that started as Yuri bait, but during the course of it's plot decided to go full Yuri ?

Yuri bait being defined as the creators having their characters act really romantically and/or sexually invested in another character from the same gender ,but somehow giving the creators and people that don't like gay relationships a lot of leeway to explain their relationships as just a friendship.

Not sure if she counts, but Tomoko in Watamote seems to constantly be perving on her female friends, and having some kind of crush on the popular girl in her class.

Then again Watamote doesn't have any romance so I am not sure if it counts

^ I probably would have preferred for it to have romance tbh, but she does seem to fit what I'm looking for (and it's not like I had specified that it needed to be romance in my request lol), so I'll give it a try, thanks :)

Joou-Sama no Eshi probably counts.

The chapters of Virgin's Empire tagged with Elisha x Honoka. The good thing about that series is that each couple basically has their own storyline, so you can follow just one without any confusion.

^ You're right, thanks! I couldn't really get into Virgins' Empire when I tried it before, but seeing how you really can read each story separately, perhaps I'll give it another try and only follow the pairs I like.

so i've read a lot of yuri on this site, but it wasn't until those angels with zephyr scans added a disclaimer to one of their manhuas that we got a resize button on dynasty and so that's been awesome. i think i'm current with everything from the last year or so but what are your recommendations for anything before that? i'm just looking for volume really, i've pretty much blead dry the archive of japanese manga so please the more the merrier

joined Feb 27, 2022

So I binged all of https://dynasty-scans.com/series/looking_up_to_magical_girls in one day and made this account just so I can find more stuff like it.

Could anyone recommend anything with same level of dysfunctional or otherwise atypical relationships?

Any recommendations for ongoing manga / tv / comics / whatever that aren't labeled Yuri / GL but which give a good vibe and seem to be heading in that direction?

What do you mean by "heading in that direction" ? Like do you want to read/watch something where the relationship between the characters isn't the main plot ? Or something that's mostly subtext ?

If it's the first, there is Finding Wonderland on Webtoon. The art is great, the chemistry is great, the plot is engaging... I'd call it fantasy/adventure?
(Also, I just noticed there's no adventure genre on Webtoon? What's up with that? Webtoon calls it action, but I disagree)

Either's fine, but tending towards the latter, I think? I think the term I'm looking for is "surprise Yuri". Just something where there is no label saying, "This is Yuri", but where you still feel it might end up having canon lesbians as the main couple.

At given points in the past, I might've said She-ra or Supergirl or Sleepless Domain or Akanesasu Shoujo, but those have all gone one way or the other by now.

I'm also still holding out faith for Fate/Kaleid, but that's probably just wistful thinking at this point

If it's the first, there is [Finding Wonderland] (https://m.webtoons.com/en/fantasy/finding-wonderland/list?titleno=2704&page=1&webtoon-platform-redirect=true)_ on Webtoon.

Already reading it, but this exactly! Absolutely agree on the art / chemistry and I'm interested to see what exactly the big picture plan is with The Ace trope.

If you're into supernatural, The Greenhouse is pretty fun. Dungeon Meshi is also very good and funny. Warrior nun is a TV show where the relationship between two main of characters is subtext-y. Carmen Sandiego, not the og but the one on Netflix, has some strong subtext and it got some really nice characters. Then there are the old classic animes such as Noir, El Cazador de la Bruja, Mai HiME/Mai Otome, Saki, Shinsekai Yori, Lyrical Nanoha.

can someone recommend me a yuri manga with more than 50 chapters? The most I've read before was less than 40, but maybe it's just me starting out with short yuri mangas. I found Hino-san no baka, but if there's any more yuri mangas that long I'd like to give it a read. I don't really have a genre I'm particularly fond of, so long as they're sfw or ecchi is minimized

A Room For Two
Kase-san + Yamada to Kase-san (technically at 49 chapters at the moment, but still ongoing)
Hana ni Arashi
Miss Sunflower
Shinmai Shimai no Futari Gohan
The Two of Them Are Pretty Much Like This
Living with My Brother's Wife.
Watashi ni Tenshi ga Maiorita!
Slow Start
A-Channel
The Demon Girl Next Door
Fuzoroi no Renri
Tadokoro-san (web comic) / Tadokoro-san
Bright and Cheery Amnesia
Sasameki Koto
A Kiss And A White Lily
Citrus if you include Citrus +

And I have to add Bloom Into You as the greatest manga in existence, even if it's only 45 chapters (although the 5 extras do push it right up to the required 50)

I've been reading one named Tsubame Tip Off that I noticed because it's tagged as GL on 'dex. There's no sign of yuri in the 20 chapters (out of at least twice as many) that are so far up in English scanlation, so if the tag is correct, I expect any romance to be secondary to the main sports plot.

Hello! I'm looking for a reccomendation of a yuri manga that is a slowburn, with a descreet amount of drama, that leads towards a sensual/sexual elements, not necessarily the ending. One example might be "Girfriends" but even stuff with bad endings could be good. The condition is that it shouldn't be explicit from the start.
Anything that comes to mind?
