I mean, who wouldn't look like this at a combo that lets you draw? Especially since the two together also enable your GY effects.

This art style is making me nostalgic for a time period that probably only exists in our muddied colelctive memories.

There's also this user-made customization posted last month:
https://dynasty-scans.com/forum/topics/21240-dark-theme-for-dynasty-scans

Huh, that looks more usable. Perhaps a place to collect user made style sheets would be nice.

This is suprisingly wholesome for a story that ends with the protagonist randomly opening fire in a crowded room...

Absolutely not staff, but I scotch taped together some (very rudimentary) dark-ish mode that can be applied as a user script that can be used with your userscript application of choice:

// ==UserScript==
// @match        https://dynasty-scans.com/*
// ==/UserScript==
(function() {
    const s = document.createElement('style');
    s.type = 'text/css';
    s.innerHTML =
        "a { color: Silver;}"+
        ".pages-list a {color: Whitesmoke !important;}"+
        "body {background: #003366 !important; color: Whitesmoke !important;}"+
        "#content {background: #3b6b9c !important;}"+
        ".chapter {color: Whitesmoke !important;}"+
        ".user {color: Black;}";
    document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(s);
})();

(Usually I wouldn't recommend people to run scripts found somewhere on the internet, but this obviously only does some pretty poor CSS work.) You can also probably turn this into a bookmarklet with minor modifications.

I'm not all to sure whether a dark mode makes sense when the supermajority of stuff here assumes dark on a bright background, but at least in the case of black and white it should be trivial to just invert the loaded images.

I'll probably look into turning this into something less ... haphazard (this was literally made in 5 minutes, okay?). I.e. properly hosting it somewhere, ironing out the theme, etc., unless there is a signal from staff dark mode support it on their end.

^ I don't know how the meme is called, but I'm pretty sure it started with this, from Nairaland, a Nigerian forum:

Exactly tracking down the spread is beyond me due to some "free speech advocate" privatizing and atomizing the internet, but I could track down a couple of (het) examples from a barely less shitty website: ①, ② and ③ — Reverse Image search is of no great use here, so If somebody else who already sold out wants to go spelunking, I'm thrilled for what you'll find.

^^ damn, then that dog might get me into Dungeon Meshi.

This is quite a refreshing art style to the anthology, and reading about Chisato spreading vending machine related misinformation was more enjoyable than a sane person should admit. Bonus points for the author's field study for lore-accurate Height gap.

Aw c'mon, what a cliffhanger. Right before the comedic interruption romantic fade to black.

Reading this as yuri, I can't but be disappointed. Hardly anything going on between these two.
Reading this as horror, oh my oh my this is great. Finally the full existential dread of time manipulation.

There's a *Trans*former pun somewhere in here, I can sense it.

And I love those designs.

I am confused. This is tagged Official and from the Lycoris Recoil Official Comic Anthology, yet the ED's note mentions this not being canon. Who is right?

To portray such a deeply messed-up relationship with so little... I like this.

But isn't Remilia physically (and perhaps mentally) younger than Sakuya? I smell hypocrisy!

The little details in this are really nice so far, I really like the stylized contents page and her phone being broken as a detail. Also Yoru's excuse for not responding is immediately sus, my headcanon right now is she's the type who gets off on worrying her partner and so she will actively neglect her to get a rise.

I agree with the conclusion but not the antecedent.

As they aren't living together or anything, a mere 28 hours of silence is perfectly acceptable and must not mean you're avoiding your partner. But really, a cold? From my experience, bed-ridden people use their phone more, not less.

Gosh, I love the look in Takina's eyes here.

Why is this titled "LOL LOL"? I did not expect a such an open-hearted couple thing.

(Also, I can't tell why, but I like Chisato's hair here more than usually.)

Y'all keep acting like Blood Candy wasn't a beloved soviet snack?

I really hope these are normal ones though. Nothing says vampires can't have normal candy.

Shouldn't this post be a follow-up to this one?

Instant favourite. I expected this to turn towards the the aquarium date trope though. The interactions are whimsical but impactful, especially with the whale. Also a cute animal sidekick, reminds me of a certain other mermaid.

The parents are also very relatable.

Thank goodness finally a character who hates coffee. Digressions about that stuff are surprisingly common in yuri and I could never relate to any motives those may or may not hide.

Tonic immobility is a reflex that causes a temporary state of inactivity in animals. This trance-like state can (...) be induced in sharks and rays by stimulating the tiny sensory pores located on their snout.

Just found these lil' buggers: https://dynasty-scans.com/forum/posts?user_id=95606 and https://dynasty-scans.com/forum/posts?user_id=93141 (probably sockpuppets of the same spammer.)

Besides being active in the same thread, they both are promoting casino games (and I don't mean Gacha), in one case as a faux quote.

Love Live! Rainfall!!

I like the detail that the humans all look like rabbit bear things while the "monsters" look like humans. I wonder how the monster actually look

Saya no Uta, but yuri? Sign me up.
