Agreed, Kill la Kill is a fucking epic anime, just like its predecessor Tengen Toppa GUREN LAGANN. And you possibly can't root for something else than Ryuko x Satsuki. Talking about anime, I recently watched Nodame Cantabile and it was very pleasant, would recommend. The classical music aspect is a big plus to anyone who enjoys it [yes, like me].

@ Utoptia

Hey, while we're at it! I actually finally re-watched “Mulholland Drive” recently...
Still like it very much. Still think that Naomi Watts is incredibly gorgeous! ^^ But I still don't fully get it either... ;)
It really is an awesome movie though.

There's a huge and extremly well written and in-depth analysis of Mulholland Drive I consider everyone who watched the movie has to read, but unfortinately, it's in french. And I honestly don't have enough bravery to translate even the half. Anyway, Mulholland Drive is a movie you feel before you understand. The mesmerizing and oneiric beauty emanating from the main couple is a sufficient reason to be crazy about this masterpiece.

This is a movie that needs, or rather, must be watched several times to start to understand it. I'm too lazy to translate the post I mentioned above, but know that the first two hours of the movie is a dream, Diane Selwyn's dream, and it's built according to the freudian theory of a dream. The last half hour of the movie is the [final] Diana's return to the reality. She wakes up, and we can deduce she killed Camilla [or rather, she paid someone to murder her] out of jealousy, because, both in the real world and in her dream, Diana was madly in love with Camilla, but when the latter cheated on her with the director [director Diana takes her revenge on in her dream], she just goes insane. The whole dream she had was an idealized conception of the world, of the life she longed to have, but the guilt she feels is too heavy it turns her dream into a nightmare. She can't even run away from the realiy in her dream, Camilla's absence is even worse than her betrayal, Diana will kill herself and join her beloved. In the end, in this schizophrenic love story, Love has triumphed over hatred.

And if you think my analysis was "deep", you're mistaken. I didn't even sum up this movie correctly. Each scene, each shot of the movie deserves to be thoroughly analised, there isn't one unnecessary second, each shot tells so much things, that's why I consider this movie as the greatest movie of all time. If only you could read french I'd have linked you the concerned post..

And don't leave this place! (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑)
Utoptia sounded so mean there for no reason... T_T

I have to be worthy of the title of Jerk I've been bestowed upon ;)

Anon's sherlock side strikes back. Yup, and it was pretty good I have to say :P
Talking about short movies, I have two excellent ones in mind you might like, add The Maker" and *Skhizein to your to-watch list ;)

^
The last sentence wasn't aimed at you at all, don't worry, you didn't know ^^ Just note that he's not the bad guy some others might try to make him seem like !

That aside, how are you doing ?

And CCL, it's a bit late but Anon's previous avi was from the short movie Abe, it's worth watching.

Huh hi there everyone, such a lively thread this morning :3

wonders who Ulquiorra is but decides not to ask about him

He's an user of this site and a good friend of mine. Let's say he happens to encounter some problems when interacting with mods, he's got his main account banned [not for too long anymore though] but that aside he's cool. There's no need to try to make a fuss over him.

No, no don't get me wrong, It's like a bowl of fresh air whenever I see a Neko's kind post, I was just wondering. Asked that out of curiosity ! How could I mind when a long-time lurker comes here to lighten the mood ?

^
Here, you can see whenever it will or is getting updated. I always read .. or more like, watch the chapter the day it's released before it gets translated.

So....i gotta ask is it okay to if you argue with mod?

Just asking.

Ulquiorra, you've been banned multiple times for trolling already. Don't push your luck.

This gives off a feeling of déjà-vu ! Duh, @Nez, he hasn't done anything wrong on any other threads for a while, don't take off the remaining freedom he has which is [shit]posting on this thread, like a lot of users, including myself did.

Also, if you don't mind my asking, why are you still hanging around here @Neko-chan xD ? I mean, I get it for Nez given it's her job to keep an eye out on all the threads out here, but nothing really still binds you here, everyone already has moved out ^^

Hahaha sapphic love...well yes that was, it was a lot of fun to tell the people the story of how we met.. I wonder if that sort of things can happen more than one time? not that I am looking for anything, just wondering if it's that rare after all...

Don't worry, there's 0 chance with me, given the fact I'm a man. But besides me, there's only one other dude who hangs around here a lot, which means the cafe could potentially become ... a dating thread ? Given it's nearly a girls-only thread and forum more globally ? Fuck yes ! runs and grabs popcorn that's something I'd look forward to seeing lmao.

Anon seems very nice yes, you too ahm, I'm not sure about how to address people on here..I like to use master and miss but for now..you'll be...just..cool person!

Well, the first designation would be perfectly fine .. ;)

The fake french accent of the seiyuus is hilarious.

It totally is, whether they speak french or english it gets funny really quick. When Alexander Anderson from Hellsing Ultimate starts to speak english it's hilarious too ^^

Hearing the 'french' language in dramas is funny but also weird when you don't understand what they are saying without looking at the subtitles XD

(Yes I was also thinking of Nodame Cantabile but it's not the only one where I don't understand my own language ^^')

Je ne suis pas d'accord, dans cette [excellente] scène on comprend ce qu'ils disent même si ils nous font un peu passer pour des cons en prenant un accent aussi ridicule xD.

Thank you, I am actually trying not to come across like a complete jerk and then maybe people can see how cool I actually am xD so I really thank you for your welcoming . I sure hope to have lots of fun here..or something like that

Don't worry, the jerk label is already taken here, by a buddy of mine and by myself ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
You do look cool, just finding sapphic love thanks to dynasty is already worth a thousand reputation points ;)
You possibly can't not have fun with Anon hanging around and look after this thread.

^
I don't recall anything like that, and if it's yuri it might get me interested, so I'd like to know too.

My name is the product of a lacking inventive talent ^^
I just couldn't come up with anything cool... unlike some people here... T_T

;)

Welcome, Katze, I'd rather stick with just Katze if you don't mind, I can't even spell it correctly lmao
I remember some posts of yours where you mentionned meeting your ex here, wasn't an ex back then though. Oh, I found it, here. Urgh, I was surprisingly kind back then O.o

Hmm right, people reading manga usually aren't too sociable :P

You're right! ^^
This is the place for absolutely ANYTHING! ;)
(Unless it's against the forum rules, of course... )

Reminds of a Montesquieu's quote I have in mind

"Liberty is a right of doing whatever the laws permit"

And a roughly translated Michel "De Montaigne" Equyem's one :

"One does respect laws not because they are fair, but because they are laws"

My cynical side strikes back ..
Anyway I hope you'll have a good time here Katze !

Page 6 : "Je vais envoyer bouquet pour vous demain également" Japanese speaking french is hilarious. Even more with their accent, having in mind Nodame Cantabile, when they're in Paris. The oneshot itself was decent, I like this author.

The writing on the desk reminds me of Graffiti, the latter remaining miles above this oneshot, which was a pleasant read nonetheless.

I dunno why it bothered me, maybe because she didn't spent all of her thirties with the person she wanted. Whatever, i still loved the ending. I think this, Steps and Pure Water Adolescence are the best Student x teacher stories in this site.

FTFY
And I would definitely add Hanjuku Joshi even if the student x teacher isn't the main couple. I also have a guilty pleasure with this. Re-browsing the said tag, I must admit there are lots of really good Student x teacher yuri hosted on this site.

Thanks for translating it, such good news for the yuri world so many great yuri authors chose to work together ! I'll definitely keep an eye on this.

La naissance des pieuvres isn't really a lesbian movie, it's more a depiction of teenagers growing up and going through things such as first, transient feelings of love or sexual attraction. It's a recurrent theme, and often the main one in Celine Sciamma's movies, I could mention Tomboy too. It's more often a sexual ambiguity [whether it's relative to adolescence ot not] than actual saphism, and it doesn't worsen her movies at all, although I concede it's not everyone's cup of tea. Some people will find her cinema boring and will call it intellectual onanism, and some will be sensible to the way she follows up teenager girls's daily life, the way she catches their emotions and how they grow up , and the themes she tackles, such as loneliness, judging on appearance or even manipulation.

Urgh, I wrote quite a lot, guess you guys bringed out my cinephile side.

Objectively, it was well written and well done, but I don't know, I felt nothing during the entire read. I guess after the countless dramatic and angsty works I've read or watched, I became insensible to this kind of stories. Even the end, it was neither happy nor sad; just plain, empty, hollow. Ineffective on me, it was definitely not my type of manga ; it still remains an interesting work though.

Happy new year fellows !

Someone wake me up when there's actual yuri without implied endings pleae... I'm desperate.

^Citrus and NTR in 2017.

You can't even be sure, we don't know either how they will end nor the way their anime adaptation will. So I wouldn't be surprised to see troll ends for these two, and given the original material, it wouldn't bother me at all. All we can do is wait for a decent yuri to be turned into an anime, and creating a larger yuri fanbase shall be the role of Citrus and NTR.
And if it's a hit, the amount of animated yuri should increase, and they might pick up the good ones.

As for the question above, I'd mention Simoun. In spite of not being a yuri at all, it has a yuri ending, and even that aside, it's totally worth the watch.

If you had hundreds of posts, they might have considered it [if they read it ofc] but for a one post account, they're probably gonna answer with a big no. Creating an alt is easy and quick, some users here can confirm, so if you want to have a new name that much, it's the best solution I can think about.

I approve every movies or series you mentioned, good tastes here. Ofc I always purcharse a version of a piece of work I really liked, that's having principes and not being too much of an asshole. Oh, this reminds me that I have yet to buy a copy of Yuzumori-san. Gnnngh I love this manga !

last edited at Dec 30, 2016 9:19PM

Kinda disappointed, it's been solved too easily. This was an overall fine read though, yuri alongside the happy end always pleases me. Well, the end still lacks a kiss !
