I don't even know if this is yuri or not.
Yuri is the love of girls by girls and portrays the emotional, social, and sexual aspects of such feelings to full on lesbian relationships. A lot of people like using the term Shojo-Ai to describe subtle Yuri, but I don't really like that term and it just muddles things up a bit.
No matter if the story is incredibly subtle or shows the characters confession and having sex with each other, if it involves a girl loving another girl to me that is Yuri; the love can be unrequited. This fits the Japanese definition of Yuri and unlike Shonen-Ai, Shojo-Ai is an entirely western creation.
Technically stories like Burst Angel are Yuri and if Burst Angel can at least be said to have solid Yuri elements in the story, then obviously Out of the Blue MUST be considered Yuri.
