Acchi kocchi isn't even subtext (at least I didn't see it), most of it is het while Kiniro Mosaic is at the limit of subtext and yuri. The aim is completely different.

You must not like subtext. Personally, I liked Kiniro because it's one of the anime that goes the farthest in term of subtext. At least, Aya and Alice are clearly gay.

Hee ? I didn't mind the subtext. That was the most fun aspect of Kiniro. That's even why I wanted to give it a try.

Aya is clearly gay for Yoko. And Alice for Shinobu.

But the whole schtick of cute girls doing cute nothings went overboard there for me. The voice acting didn't help either. The hyper high pitched voices of all the cast, almost undistinguishable from each other, was getting on my nerves. And the fact that the characters (especially Alice and Shinobu) look like lolis didn't make me want anything to happen between them. I'd feel like a creep to watch these characters kiss.

I compared it to Acchi Kocchi, because it's a slice-of-life-moe-up-the-butt anime, like Kiniro (without the subtext).

The subtext in Kiniro is actually the only thing that makes it fun and made me laugh. But once you got the couples, well nothing really happens.

I didn't really hate Kiniro actually. I just found it very easily predictable and forgettable.

Ok I misunderstood. Personally I love these kind of pure slice of life in which the characters sole purpose is to be cute or silly so I see no much difference between Kiniro and Acchi kocchi in this regard. And I don't really remember the voices but I see why some could not like it

Plus I found the "foreign" theme kinda original for this kind of slice of life, even if it decrease a little as the anime progress

In Acchi kocchi, the Mayoi and Sakaki duo saved the whole thing from overly cheesiness.

In Kiniro, the humor isn't as strong as to make it stand on its own without the romance/subtext. The foreign theme takes a back seat rather quickly. If you remove the yuri subtext, what's left of Kiniro?

Pastel art design and oddly childish characters

I just started watching Monthly Girls' Nozaki-Kun and am finding it to be hilarious and seems to hit all my favorite points of a rom-com.

why there isn't more subtext yaoi anime when they obviously sell?

Seraph anime is selling? It's pretty standard and mediocre.

As for yaoi subtext/bait... Well studios tend to try to not overflow the market. Fujos have a strong buying power but they tend to pick 1-2 shows each season to throw money at. If stuff like utapri or Basugays is airing... Your yaoi show isn't going to perform.

In any case I think the fujobait is doing better with Arslan pretty boy and his party of 10 feet bara gorillas officers this season.

I think he was joking, a harem between a bunny and a bunch of girls, isn't bestiality used only in hentai?

Watakushi has a 70 MB version at Nyaa.se "Tenshi No drop" ... My knowledge of english can't transmit properly what they tried with that manga, no wonder there's just one chapter and you can't find the manga in batoto

You can't find it because no one translated it, and it's not 1 chapter but 6 volumes and ongoing...

I thought it was strange you say one chapter, but try to explain anyway, I will not watch it in the near future, I have to watch almost all animes made before it first...
