But if I come through the gate, I'd have to break down the door.

That's some sound logic right there, Marisa. I'll have to break into my friend's house through the window some day and see how that'll work.

You know you're turning 22 this year, right?

Huh, imagine if Pokemon of all anime decided to throw in a lesbian couple! Perhaps that'd convince me to start watching Sun and Moon, if Lillie and Mallow actually became a couple.

I don't understand why older sis randomly slipped into Spanish (Que?? assuming that's not also some Japanese word or something), but it still made me laugh. I guess she was so shocked she said something in a language she never learned? Well, it's probably just a dumb thing to think about. I don't know anything about Japanese schools, but I guess it's not unreasonable to think that they teach Spanish like American schools do.

I thought it was pretty cool that Maki called that... girl... (her name hasn't been revealed yet, huh? Unless I completely missed it) a devil at the end of the first chapter and an angel at the end of the second chapter. It seems like it perfectly shows her changing and conflicting feelings for that girl as well as the different sides of her personality... Wonder what's up with that earring though. Yeah, that's about the extent of my "deep literary analysis" skills assuming that it's even a correct analysis.

Also, is there any reason why Tsucchi calls Maki Makki? I presume it's just a nickname, but, I mean, what's the point of a nickname if it sounds exactly the same as your actual name? I assume it's pronounced differently in Japanese, but, well, I don't know.

Seems fairly divisive so far, which I can certainly understand. I mean, it's not that divisive but you've got people saying they don't like all the random crap while others do like it. Personally, I'm on the side of the people who like all the random crap. I'm enjoying where the story's going so far, and I'll probably enjoy where it goes in the future.

I missed that "Drama Watching" part at first, so I was really confused about why D. Va didn't just break up with this bastard and hook up with Mercy. It's definitely better now that I realized that D. Va isn't dating some random guy, but... boy, do I hate K-Drama with a burning passion though

I wonder if every chapter's gonna end with slightly ominous final words.

Soooo, would this be considered yuri? Also, maybe it's just me, but it seems kind of weird for the cow and the rabbit to argue over which of their species is eaten and killed more by humans...

incest is the best after selfcest

Selfcest? Doesn't sound appealing.

I'm replying cuz someone said "selfcest doesn't sound appealing" xD...
I haven't read much myself but currently i'm reading "I Am My Wife". (you should give it a shot)
So far it seems like it will be selfcest (het) but who knows..it's about a guy who's first love gets married and then he goes back in time to the period where he actually started crushing on the girl, but as a girl, and his male self also exists...and so far seems like the MC's male self is falling for his female self from the future, yaoi(?), het(?) idk (both i guess), selfcest (check). Anyways i'm interested to see how this will conflict with the future self's crush. And if that doesn't sound appealing, i guess you can stick with your statement :P

To me, at least, it doesn't sound particularly appealing. I have to admit that it does sound pretty interesting if only because it's such a bizarre premise. Hopefully, someone makes a gay version of this story eventually since such a story would definitely appeal to my tastes heh.

Well, I guess it was good for my well-being that I didn't bother to read Volume 5. After the relatively brief hiatus between 4 and 5 and the revelation that it was canceled, I was pretty sure it'd have a crappy ending, and, lo and behold, it did... It's a shame, this could have really been something great if it wasn't dragged on for so damn long... and, wow, to add insult to injury, the "bonus chapter" is just more yaoi and some random stupid pictures. I mean, I enjoyed the yaoi more than the yuri in this thing, but this is yuri for God's sake, at least let the alleged main characters get a page in the last chapter. I wonder if this is how yaoi fans felt during the three-chapter yuri arc and the various other yuri chapters and whatnot... though, in that case, the yuri added to the story and had an actual point as opposed to this crap. Plus, Prunus Girl had a great, conclusive ending, while this apparently doesn't... this definitely needs a continuation but, let's face it, it probably still wouldn't go anywhere meaningful. I mean, I certainly would not be opposed to more Prunus Girl either, but that's because I actually like the story as opposed to here where I just want SOMETHING to happen.

Dang, I was hoping all along that some crazy shit would happen that would allow the princess to marry her maid without having to elope or whatever. Well, doesn't look it, but at least it ended on a moderately hopeful note?

What does that title mean in English anyway? All I understand is... skirt. Though, really, no half-decent non-smutty anime has "skirt" in the title, so I guess I can glean enough information from the title even with my non-existent Japanese skills.

Woooo, another yuri anime! It's probably gonna suck but I'm so damn excited - wait, wait.

but soon discovers that Ryō is actually a man dressed as a woman.

Well, fuck, I'm out of here. Certainly nothing wrong with crossdressing, but there is something wrong with this premise...

What a pleasure it is to read a non-porn thing from Mira. Not that her porn things are bad, of course, but her writing and sense of humor is enough to entice me into reading anything she writes even if they lack random sex scenes.

That's why I'm so hung up on this story. If Mimika had the same character, performed the same, and simply had her gender flipped, I would still think it's a good story. I probably wouldn't be as interested in the story, but I'd still support his relationship with Mimika as it stands now. But that support would crumble the moment he crosses the line, and I put the same onus on female Mimika.

it gets me that a lot of people rooting for the story as it is would never give boy!Mimika nearly as much sympathy.

I know that I definitely wouldn't give boy!Mimika anywhere near as much sympathy as I give actual!Mimika, but I do have to (reluctantly) agree that the story would still be just as good. I would not touch such a story with a ten-foot pole, but I would probably think of it as a good story if I ever decided to read it. I think it's kind of similar to Kodomo no Jikan. Now, I've never read/watched that horrible thing and I never will, but, from what I hear, it actually is a pretty realistic take on... pedophilic relationships... now, assuming that's correct, I am still never going to read it just because the protagonist is a dude. I mean, even if she was female... but, I mean, I guess I did read Hoshikawa Ginza District without any hesitation so I guess I wouldn't.

As for that whole issue of "crossing the line..." I can't say that I feel the same, really. I would certainly be disgusted to a certain extent if actual!Mimika crossed the line, but if male!Mimika did that, I would drop the series then and there. If actual!Mimika did that, I'd most likely continue onward and still support her. Is that wrong? Probably, but, well, at least I can acknowledge that I'm pretty irrational and hypocritical. If this were a real-life relationship, I would definitely not support it under any circumstances, but since it's fictional, well, I guess I would regardless of the circumstances. Not really sure how I started to think this way, but I suppose it is how it is.

Also if this was het and Mimika a guy, wouldn't it make things more awkward when he would want to touch Yuzumiri, just like Mimika feels now?

This is the litmus test I use for yuri. If the protagonist (or love interest) were male, would I still agree with their decisions? Would I still be interested in what they're doing? Would it still be a good story?

In many cases, I can confidently say "No. Definitely not," but, honestly, I don't really care beyond just the acknowledgment that I'm a huge hypocrite. Take yuri incest, for example. I sure am glad that YuruYuri's Akane got gender-swapped because I would not want to read a story with an incestuous older brother. But... since it's an incestuous older sister, it's all good. Same goes for Candy Boy or... well, this thing.

Not really a Kotori x Honoka fan but it was well done.

But - pet peeve in the first bubble. - come with. Drives me nuts! You can't just say 'come with?' and stop there - it's come with ME! right? or 'you didn't have to come too'. But to say come with, is very bad / incorrect English - or is this some Americanism I'm unaware of?

I usually say "come with me," but I'm fairly certain that many of my fellow Americans frequently just say "come with." Correct me if I'm wrong though which I probably am.

Here's hoping that the Thomas the Tank Engine yuri I requested will be chosen this batch

Wow, I didn't even know you could comment in the actual Image Comments thread... fancy that... anyhow, I would definitely love to see that pic. Even if I never watched Thomas the Tank Engine, tank engine yuri is just too good to resist.

Toaru Kagaku no Railgun and the Kuroko one is Toaru Kagaku no Railgun Gaiden: Astral Buddy

Oh hell yes! Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I've heard before that Railgun was supposed to be a Kuroko spinoff... before they changed it to a Misaka spinoff, of course. Misaka's cool and all too, but a full-fledged Kuroko spinoff would have been so much better... as great as this is, I can't imagine it'll be that long seeing as though it's apparently a spinoff of a spinoff. Hopefully, I'll be proven wrong though... you can never go wrong with more Kuroko!

The manga of Railgun shows a lot of interaction between Misaki and Misaka, solving crime together working as team... So yeah, they get to know each other better but yeah initially they hate each others A LOT

As for Kuroko I don't read the LN but she got her own spin off manga! I think there's only 1 chapter translated so far but you can see that drill girl there

That is freaking awesome. What's the manga called? I need to read it right now haha.

(Also, do you know what the name of the thing your picture is from is? I know I've read it but I can't recall the name and it's driving me nuts.)

It's from Upside Down Swing by Chisako. https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/upside_down_swing. Gotta admit, I completely forgot the name of this manga too until I did a bit of looking so thanks for reintroducing me to such a great story.

I've only watched the anime (and just Railgun at that, not interested in watching an anime with a harem protagonist), but is that... Misaki? I thought her and Misaka hated each other? It probably isn't, but, well, am I glad to see more yuri in more mainstream works (if it actually is). Poor Kuroko though...

And don't worry about Kuroko, she has Drill-chan now :p

Did they actually introduce a legit love interest for Kuroko or is this just a joke? I think her getting a girlfriend would singlehandedly convince me to read the entire light novel series... yeah, Kuroko and MIsaka would be better, but, well, I'll take what I can get.

Cute, but read the dialogue by itself and it sounds kinda like a weird porno. -_-

Everything can sound like a weird porno if you read it the right way.

Thankyou

@aranicar

If I'm not mistaken, she killed Mami in one of Episode 10's alternate timelines. After the magical girls found out the truth about their soul gems, Mami went berserk and killed Kyoko. She then tied up Homura and was about to kill her too before Madoka intervened with an arrow to the soul gem.

Soooo, would anyone mind explaining what happened to Ymir? I'm interested in Yumikuri but not nearly enough to actually read AOT. Also, is the yuri dead if she actually took over that... guy's body? I guess it'd still be Ymir, but, still, canonizing the ship after Ymir takes control of some dude's answer seems like a massive copout to me...
