^First time hearing the term "analog horror". I'd seen that type of horror media before but never knew that name. Thanks for the info :)

The early part and Ryo's was pretty damn funny. Of course with Kita it was lovey dovey because Bokita is top tier.

Takemiya Jin's works generally fall under this category. Most of her lead characters are lesbian and never question it. I think Fragments of Love is the only one of her serials I can think of offhand that deals with a leading character who doesn't explicitly self-define as lesbian at the start, and even then she's sharing the spotlight with another character who does.

Thanks for the recommendation. I'd somehow never read any of her work and added several of her most popular works to my Plan to Read list.

The request and examples are ambiguous. Do you want lesbians or WLW -- you say homosexuals but then include pan Yuzu.

But there are lots and lots of WLW. Really, it's kind of the yuri default these days?

Are you using "WLW" to describe characters that are shown to be attracted/in a relationship with another woman but aren't explicitly stated to be lesbian? Is that a standard use for that term?

Yes and yes.

Thanks for letting me know. I'd always seen "WLW media" used as an interchangeable term with "lesbian media" or "yuri" and "Girls' Love" when talking specifically about manga.

Series where both protagonists start aware and/or outed are really rare indeed. With regards to series where one of the two is aware and/or out, I'd add Arioto and Warikan.
Can't Defy the Lonely Girl is another potential candidate, and they do have at least a partial coming-out.

The Moon on a Rainy Night is another one. Saki is very much aware that she's a lesbian and was previously crushing on her piano teacher before falling for Kanon.

Was it hinted somewhere how the manager was able to track down Io? It'd be like looking for a needle in a haystack trying to find one person in Shinjuku at night so I'm wondering if she used some sort of tracking.
Omg she's so creepy though. Got a bit of a jump scare by page 22: https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/a_face_you_shouldnt_show_ch06#22

Aint no way someone who gave themselves keys to my place is "popping in" whenever they see fit. The first time she did that, MC should have said something about privacy. Then in the middle of masturbating? No way.

Agreed. But to be fair it tracks with what we've seen of Io's character that she wouldn't say anything about it. Girl is a total pushover who needs to learn to stick up for herself.

I'm assuming they mean women who are clear about being lesbian, use that language, and don't say things like "I love you for you." I thought they meant stories where the characters are openly gay and will say that. I think there was a conversation about this in the "Whisper Me a Love Song" thread recently.

Yeah that's what I'm assuming OP is talking about but I was asking Rainbow8 specifically about "Do you want lesbians or WLW?", which makes "lesbian" and "WLW" distinct terms with different definitions.

And yeah I was in the middle of that Whisper Me a Love Song thread lol

^Got dick on the brain? Probably on the wrong website for that :P

OP are you looking for characters that specifically talk about being gay as opposed to the "single target sexuality" that Blastaar mentioned which is extremely common in manga?
You should check the Coming Out tag if you haven't already: https://dynasty-scans.com/tags/coming_out

I do love Iko x Teru but Pilse can also be super cute with Teru. Hopefully Iko would allow her to be a mistress.

^@Zesc what is all that you posted?

I like how Mari's little near death experience made her come back nicer and much gayer.

So did Mito's arm become a monster tentacle as soon as it was cut off or was she the monster all along? If it's the latter, I wonder if Kon is unknowingly a part of the monster too. She's always given off a somewhat eerie vibe...to the point where earlier in the story some were speculating whether she was even real/already dead or something.

^Thanks for the info. Definitely not the first time these old bones have been out of the loop on what's trending in fashion

^0 Days since that song was stuck in my head

^Agree to disagree. Momoka looks cool despite the shirt looking awful. Then again I'm old and don't know what's fashionable with kids these days.

Seconds before this seemingly sweet Nina loses control and then pushes Momoka down to ravish her

Momoka's shirt looks like 2 different shirts split in half and then stitched together

^Wow that is terrible on the ears without seeing the muppets moving their mouths to the words.

^Lol I like how you commented on this right as new fanart was being posted so it seemed like this was one of them.

One winning ship and 2 sunken ones. Feel bad for Kurohime bc she's such a sweetheart. Hope she gets let down easy.

Kita: "Have you found my boobs yet?"

Bocchi: "Nope! Still looking for em!"

Please be gentler with the boobs. Looks like she's about to rip them off.

^Yeah I've heard that it's well written but also that it's heart-wrenching. Just reading this few page excerpt posted on reddit was enough to put my heart in a vice and I'm not up for feeling more of that unless I'm assured there will be a happy ending: https://www.reddit.com/r/yuri_manga/comments/1ep25qf/damnthats_rough_buddy_there_is_no_love_wishing/
