I heard that this author is caught up in some kind of scandal. Apparently, there were some old tweets saying this manga isn’t yuri, but now that the anime has become so popular, they’re calling it yuri — or something about supporting a male character intruding into yuri pairings. I’m not sure if that’s actually true or not.

Also, doesn’t anyone find the art style of this series kind of weird? Looking at the manga art, it feels like the author didn’t really put much effort into it — like they were just drawing for fun and didn’t expect it to get an anime adaptation. The composition is strange; the characters’ bodies keep extending out of the panels. And if you’re going to do that, just draw the whole leg. I don’t get why they stop at the knees — it’s honestly uncomfortable to look at. As for the backgrounds, many chapters just feature characters with blank white panels and no scenery at all. Thankfully, the anime staff put in a lot of effort and did a pretty good job with the adaptation."

That first thing you said is not true. There's no way to read this series as anything but yuri. I also enjoy the mangas style. Did you enjoy the chapter at all or? Your comment implies you don't read the series (otherwise, I don't understand the yuri comment). The anime works because its based on a good manga.

I'm sorry for Akane and Yaeka, I feel like they're the couple that gets the least amount of exposure compared to the other two. But Jinran is my fave, so any chapter with her makes me happy.

They're apparently getting anime original content in episode 10 so they have that at least.

I don't know if we need to recognize that as a "scandal". Twitter encourages people to whip themselves up into a frenzy about some minor issue every day, and even said issue usually gets distorted through a game of telephone.

Even if you're conveying the facts accurately, a creator saying that his manga is not yuri should not be referred to as a scandal. It's very unlikely to cause harm to anybody. I won't address the other claim because even you admit you made no effort to verify it.

The "controversy" was started by some Chinese guy using auto translation btw. Then twitter dumbasses decided that they should listen to others' version of the story instead of actually doing their researches.
Yes I'm also talking about you Sang Sakako, don't just "heard", know.
