Hey, I've never talked to anyone about yuri manga before, so this is pretty exciting! I'm looking for some more yuri manga to read that's preferably romance focused and in English, although, I'm open to other genres if the romance arc is there. I do have a long list of romance manga I've read, but that would probably be a bit too much if I pasted it into here, so just your best suggestions would be awesome, and I can filter out the ones I've already read!

I'm open to all sorts of tropes, although I really don't like harem and have short patience with it. Any suggestions at all would be so awesome! I don't know how hard it is to give recommendations with such little information, so if you need me to, I can give like a top 15 list or something to try and help out. But honestly, I'm really open to trying something new, anyways.

By no means an exhaustive list, and I'm sure other will chime in with their own recommendations, but here are some.

Chatting at the Amber Teahouse
Legally married yuri couple book
Hanjuku Josh and some other Morishima Akiko's works
Girlfriends, The Secret Recipe, Hana and Hina After School and other Morinaga Milk works (some are officially licensed)
Takemiya Jin's work
A Timid Woman Longing For Her Delivery Girl
Tadokoro-san
Teiji ni Agaretara

hihi!!!!! i was rereading hello melancholic by ohsawa yayoi today and i realized my desperate need for more couples like chika and sakiko. does anybody have recommendations for this kind of dynamic?
like that codependent (?) vibe, where they r kinda attached by the hip even tho they act like the other ticks them off (affectionately!!!!) also great w fwb dynamic…,
tankobu — ive heard of for sure (they remind me a lot of chika + sakiko) (i love them so much)
i give up on the ivy + ken anthology bc its on mangadex and… its translated in the shittiest way possible (misogynistic british scanlator that u can immediately tell is a homophobic straight man who sees lesbians as just a porn category)
i apologize if my request seems unclear but i appreciate any recommendations!!!!!!

I'm looking for something kind of specific!

Any stories about unrequited love? I've browsed a bit through the "wishful thinking" and "yuri crush" tags but most of it isn't really what I am looking for.

I tend to prefer yuri stories focused on adults, maybe with drama elements. I've been reading Even Though We're Adults and this one sort of scratches this itch, but I want more!

I'm also interested maybe in stories featuring like a young adult protag pining after an older woman, are there any like this? Most of the series I've seen in the adult life tag that have an age gap between the two leads is from the perspective of the older one of the two it seems like.

I can only offer one-shots right now. (Tbh it's hard to write a longer romance series where there's no romance... and having somebody lose in a love triangle may hardly scratch that itch.)

There's also more "yuri" that ends with a girl falling victim to comphetness, but unlike what people would have you believe, I only feed others poison when it's actually funny.

I'm also interested maybe in stories featuring like a young adult protag pining after an older woman, are there any like this?

Sadly, i only have Graduation Day to offer, which is a whole 4 pages... I know of at least one further manhwa here about an older student who is infatuated with her tutor (who, it turns out, is already dating her mom) but I can't recall its name. Let's hope others can help.

I feel like "My Unrequited Love" by Tmnr will fit perfectly!

Looking for yuri with the main protag being a loser horny femcel(?) Not sure if there's a tag for it.
Sfw or nsfw is fine, school girl is fine but I prefer adults

"Sorry I'm not Into Yuri" immediately comes to mind. "Scummy Gap Student" could fit the bill as well, and i guess Watamote? Though i haven't read that one, so idk how much yuri is actually in there

Watamote is definitely an example of a femcel protag that i like. But a lot of the fan comics i read of her take away her pervy-ness and initiative and just make her shy.
Also ill check those manga out, thank u!

maybe its too specific, but any yuri manga that has some politicial intrigue/drama as the central storyline alongside the romance? something like, for example, i favor the villainess (i like Fantasy stories in general but it does not need to be isekai...)

TY to anyone who honors my maybe weird request...

Honestly it feels like that's a trope/topic more frequent in manhua than manga. My first and foremost suggestion when it comes to that being Unaware His Majesty Is a Girl.

On the manga side, there's I Want to Make Black-Knight Fall In Love With Me! (I haven't yet read the final chapter that was released today, but it apparently got axed after 3 volumes) and, for a blast from the past, Iono the Fanatics (which is more of a palace drama than a courtly intrigue most of the times, but then there are multiple assays at the Queens life, soooo...) which every user of this site should consider required reading.

Overall, the Villainess and Historical tags have significant overlap with what you're searching. I also refer thee to the Yuri Otome Isekai Masterlist III

"The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady," is exactly that, especially in the novels. Read the LNs or follow the manga.

Hello, no, there wasn't.

Is there any manga with dragon girl (or monster girl) x normal girl? Other than Beauty x beast girl and the oneshot by Glacier clear.

Also, if not then maybe some princess saving sh"t, I am craving for a badass girl saving a girl type of manga lol

You could check the Monster Girl tag or try a Monster Girl+Yuri search. Just add additional tag filters for preference.

My reccomendations on Dynasty might include Snake Woman and Little Miss Offering and Alien Girl, but neither of these have much badassery or adventure. Could also try Kobayashi's Dragon Maid for some humor.

On Webtoons, you should check out Mage and Demon Queen which seems like it would check all your boxes. (And, as a bonus: It's complete! Edit: Although, I guess you have to use the app to read it in full. They only leave the first few chapters of a series on the web version once it's finished.) There's also The Dark Lord's Confession, but that's a bit more bi-subtext.

Only focusing on ryumimi yuri because the list is already long:

  • It's almost too obvious to name, but Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid immediately comes to mind.
  • My personal recommendation is I Don’t Need Promises, which is sadly only a one-shot.
  • Two series if you're willing to stretch the definition of "Dragon girl" a little bittle are Rescue Will Not Be Necessary. (Imugi, kind of a korean lindworm) and Snake Woman and Little Miss Offering (Serpent, duh). The latter is technically not concluded, but it's by Nagori Yu, who just starts a new variant of the same Pure Maiden x Tall Onee-Sama whenever she grows bored of the old one...
  • How Did a Pro Player Like Me End Up as a Max-Level Priestess in Another World? is a gender-bender isekai with an affectionate ryumimi companion. Only two chapters scanlated so far though, and I'm not sure if romance will ever be the focus.
  • I never watched Manaria Friends, but I doubt it yuri beyond subtext, nonetheless Anne x Grea are frequently shipped.
  • If you are okay with Doujins, definitely check out Arknights. Whilst the game has no "normal" girls (everyone is a form of monster person), there are plenty of adorable pairings featuring Ryumimis. (Be wary though, this is one of those franchises to which "Incestmaxxing the dragon bloodline" definitely applies.) My personal recs: Alina x Talulah (Ryumimi villain and her deer wife), Ch'en x Hoshiguma (Dragon x Oni), Lava x Nian (Dragon x Demon) and Saria x Silence (Dragon x Birb, Ifrit is pretty much their adopted daughter but their relationship has been ... strained).
  • In a similar vein, Touhou has Yachie, who is usually shipped with either Keiki or Saki.
  • I'm fairly certain the Nasuverse also has an abundance of Dragon Girls, but I personally avoid that.
  • Whatever you do, stay away from Cross Ange in the name of all that is dear to you. It's the most disgusting bait I've ever seen.

EDIT: Damn, got ninja'd. And yeah, I totally forgot about Mage and Demon Queen.

Yes, you clearly haven't seen it if you have any doubt about at least Anne's feelings for Grea. :P

And other than what's been already mentioned, there's also the excellent A Monster Wants to Eat Me, also having the anime adaptation running this season.

For Webtoons I'd recommend "The Beast of Hadingely Hill." That's truly a beauty and the beast like story. Extremely good and girl's love.

First an addendum because I can't believe I forgot about them: Onzze has a Dragon x Knight couple and they make me go all swoony. Apparently she printed an entire Graphic Novel that you can't buy anyhwere?!

Second, a request myself: after some recent image uploads revealed the Kessoku Band's textile communisim (and absolutely not confusing some Mai x Reo for ChisaTaki) I'm looking for whole Doujins about wearing your partner's stuff. Like, not in a costume kind of way, but just by being a clothes-stealing gremlin.
