Somehow it feels like the Drama tag is not necessary.

I never understood this. The girls have the souls of the ships, not reliving their history.

More toyama x yagami. I'm very pleased!

It is not even subtle anymore.

I like Madoka's line on page 6, stating that KyoSaya and MadoHomu are both established couples in this story. It makes the whole thing cuter, somehow.

That makes it better for me too. Mami is kinda lost with the established pairings (unless you make her pedo) and having the other relationships open for their senpai is kinda sweet.

The end is not bad or good. It's quite open, with a timeskip of 7 years. Not necessarily a yuri ending, but at least it's not a het ending.

Personally that sounds like a bad end to me.

Okay... this ended with a teary graduation scene and no resolution in the romance.

Meh.

I kind of agree, I wanted 18+-san x Hime, but I guess it's better than yaoi ending...

I agree. At least in out headcanon that can happen. All options are open.

Poor Mika, but I don't understand when someone already know their boyfriend cheating on them and still fine with it

It is probably not cheating as in having sex with other girls but more like flirting and stuff.

I think the story would have taken a completely different turn if that were the case. Question is, is that a good or bad thing? .

More angst. More drama. More hetero. More 'its just a phase'

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

How can you blame any studio for not making yuri? It is not like they sit in their dark rooms and think of ways how to be mean to yuri fans ;)
KyoAni simply adopts a novel and obviously has some fans of romantic interactions of girls in their staff. But the romance plots are simply in the novel, it is hard to change that in an adaptation that ultimately is also a promotion for said novel.

They follow the novel. Not really that big of a surprise.

MUCH, MUCH better done than this one.

I disagree. The My Adorable Bride one is a lot sweeter.

The clothing status in the last chapter made me wonder of they had sex...

I rather expect the sister is going to wreck havoc in the relationship because of "you must follow the rules to a T or I will break/expell/make you feel like shit.

Just once i want a character who says "Fuck you. You do that and i break your leg".

why are we even on page 3

Because websites like MAL still use the Shoujo-Ai tag and confuse people.

Am I supposed to think Chrono being beaten up is funny?

Yes.

Yeah, no way they're doing Shirou Ending, Illya/Miyu/Kuro FTW!

The worst thing happening would be to end the Manga with another harem joke involving Shirou but i hope the writer is better then that and at least ends it with an Illya, Miyu and Kuro (i expect her to vanish...) 'friendship' scene.

Shirou's harem is really just a joke. Literally everybody wants him, even all the guys become gay. Illya is obviously going for the Miyu and selfcest route.

Are you talking about the original Fate? Beside Shirou, the males don't show up in Prisma Illya until the end of 2wei (and none of them even meets Illya's Shirou). And almost everything in Prisma Illya is played as jokes until the main story kicks in.

Illya-vers's Shirou's friends are quite gay for him. And in 3rei Illya is very desperate for Miyu with her Shirou not even showing up.

Anybody who thinks that the Ending will be anything but Illya/Miyu (with or without subtext) has very big hetgoggles or is just a massive Shiroufag.

I swear I'm not staring.

Ahem. I wouldn't really recommend Illya unless you're a Fate fan. I've got quite a few problems with it, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy the heck out of it. If we're talking yuri, it's all just subtext (better word would just be fanservice). Mana transfer kisses blah blah. At the end of the line, it's still Shirou's harem in a world where he's a side character. All the girls want his d sans Miyu.

Why? Would it not have been easier and less repugnant to simply go up to her and say "Hey, your boyfriend just propositioned me. You might want to consider dumping him."

Not enough drama.

Spoiler: The Libor witch is Sheska, but she lost her memory crossing the barrier.

Second spoiler: No, I have no idea if that's true, I just made it up. But it would kinda work.

Sounds very likely. Too bad it ends so soon and they can't explore it for another Volume.

Adding to what OriginalGengar asked: Do you also not think that yuri is for a niche audience? Cuz it is.

Of course yuri is niche Late Night. Anime itself is pretty niche. But it sells if done right or if it is just a part in a bigger show. I have no idea where that "yuri does not sell" comes from. Of course it does not sell if the shows are shit. Look at Sakura Trick. The show had nothing but kisses. The humor was mediocre at best and the characters not all that interesting. Of course it would not sell. A hetero show would sell just as bad.

About the genre thing. Yes i think yuri should not be classified as a genre. It can be part of something but is not a genre itself. What kind of a genre would yuri be? it is always part of romance/comedy/etc.

I'm anticipating a perfectly happy ending.

Of course we will see a happy ending. But first we need some really pointless drama i guess.
