Sorry if I'm not allowed to do this, but is there a way to request for specific works on this site?

But then we have stuff like this and this and even in the face of total heartbreak and disappointment I can't help but keep shipping these two band geeks ;_; What's wrong with me?

Oh yeah if anybody here can read japanese there's blog for kyoani production staff where they comment about the episode they're working on.

One of the comment is the art director's musing on episode 8 that she wanted to watch that particular scene over and over again, because it was so beautiful. (and imo that's also the highest point of this whole series, the music score is so fucking on point in that scene)

Also it seems the staff also like kumiko and reina pairing and well aware of what they're doing in the anime. My guess is that they can't do anything about the original material and they have to follow it (remember shirobako, original author is the god)

So does that mean we should stop blaming KyoAni for not doing yuri, or blame them even more for making it so painfully shippable?

Lucky girl...I wish more love triangles had this type of non-dramatic setting.

Question, why are there two Zettai x Roman listed?

Ok, I just saw the new Adventure Time and Finn does NOT end up with Bubblegum, like at all. She just kisses his (and Jake's) forehead. I don't know why the person I read that from said that, hahaha. So yaaaay!

Oh yeah, in regards to the Steven Universe example here's a clip showing how it's really not subtext. It's a pretty spoilery scene though. Their relationship was confirmed as romantic by one of the storyboard artists/writers here.

I thought this was a slice of life anime, not fuking Puella Magi with bands...

Jokes aside, after thinking about it it's not too surprising. I can't help but hope though...

Wait I just realized something. Reina liked Taki-sensei in the novels and KyoAni wouldn't discard that as a plot point, so maybe we'll see the scene where she confesses to him and is rejected and she'll be all heartbroken and the Kumiko will go and comfort her AND THEN THEY'LL KISS ASDFJGEIGJ. But I shouldn't get my hopes up.

Aw come on guys, don't be afraid of bugs. It's not their fault they are bugs. Or are dying. Really, the worst thing that can happen would be that they carry infectious diseases, or are venomous, or are going to lay eggs in your skin, and only a few are like that! Besides that they're perfectly harmless.

Reina is into Taki, whoop whoop. Can the pro order guys still cancel their pre order? I hope KyoAni loses a lot of sales after this episode so they realize that they should never pull stuff like this again.

Fucking fuckery fuckwadding fucks. Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to drown myself in fanart.

There's nothing wrong with criticism, unless you're actively insulting someone. If you do that then your original point is lost and no one listens to you. Seriously Candy, is the title that big of a deal to you that you had to get so upset?

Here is the thread if you want to read it. It gets pretty funny once the guy starts ranting there.

Man, I always feel so bad for those dying bugs on the ground that feebly buzz around as they breath their last breaths (╥_╥)

Hey, this thread is pretty fun. More video game examples include the Mass Effect and Dragon Age series, where you can play as a female character and romance other female characters. I've never played them, but I've heard lots of good things about them.

No problem! The AT comics are really gay.

has the two being rulers of the Candy Kingdom together with them about to be married sometime in the next few years, although that happens way in the future.

Finn and Bubblegum or Bubblegum and Marceline? I mean, I guess Finn and Bubblegum but I'd rather clutch to the last piece of hope.

Bubblegum and Marceline! Here I found the thing.

^missed those, sorry. I'll add them in like an hour or two with everything posted before as well as Out With Dad, missed that too. Not too sure on the Adventure Time cartoon though, I watched the first two seasons and don't remember too much subtext or even interactions. Does it pick up afterwards? And it's been a while so maybe I'm just missing stuff.

They broke up like way before the show started so they're more like friendly exes, though there are still some scenes in the show with the two like here and here. Although Finn's apparently with Bubblegum as per the season 6 finale, not sure of the circumstances though because I haven't seen it yet, the comics (which are official but may be within another continuity) has the two being rulers of the Candy Kingdom together with them about to be married sometime in the next few years, although that happens way in the future. In general, the comics have more subtext. But yeah, Adventure Time doesn't have particularly many scenes with the them. This page has a pretty comprehensive list of their moments, if you're interested.

Another show that has lesbians would be the Filipino drama The Rich Man's Daughter. Haven't seen much yet, but it's definitely gay. Funnily enough, my grandma was watching it earlier.

Also about Faking It, it has lots of controversy to be sure of the premise but Amy is definitely gay, she even gets a real girlfriend later.

Did the cartoons I posted not count?

I know of three American cartoons that have had yuri couples at some point in their history - Adventure Time, Legend of Korra, and Steven Universe.

In Adventure Time the characters Marceline and Princess Bubblegum apparently used to date, as confirmed by one of the voice actresses here. They've since broken up, but still are friends. Plus the subtext is considerably stronger in the comics.

In Legend of Korra, Korra and Asami are confirmed to get together after the end of the series.

In Steven Universe, the character Garnet is the fusion and literal personification of the relationship between the two gems Ruby and Sapphire. Although gems are technically gender less, they use female pronouns so I guess you'd consider them yuri.

@colboh I can't believe someone else actually ships Suika with Reimu!
