Is it just me or is the art even better than before? (It's not like me to gush, but I can't help it here.)
tmfly has probably my favorite style of any yuri artist who is regularly putting out work. it's really playful and unique. the inking is real good.
God I've been missing this
Why can't there be more adult yuri in my life?
agreed. tamamusi has some good stuff, but its all super light hearted. i'd still rather fluffy adult plots than ones with minors though. i think the yuri audience is mostly younger, so adult content probably doesn't sell as well. i can imagine editors being picky about running serialized stuff that doesn't cater to 15-20 age group. could be wrong, just a hunch.
Seriously, I never actually felt as horny as them in my entire life... I mean, sex is and feels good, but the most important part is the mood and agreement!
pretty sure this is exactly why miwa has been struggling to feel connected. she seems more interested in romance than saeko, and there is a bit of a disconnect. even in the first chapter that shows them being sexually intimate, saeko seems to have a hard time being "serious."
i'm guessing saeko covers up her insecurities and fear of rejection/social issues by acting like things don't matter all that much. being able to play off her behavior as just light hearted fun might be a defense mechanism that she has learned from lots of negative experiences. this is usually called "internalized homophobia" and it's really common. as much as she wants to be herself and can accept other lgbt people, she doesn't seem quite ready to accept herself. (been there)
when i see this kind of character depth in a manga, it usually makes me think the author is lgbt. it's not easy to write convincing characters, but so far this one seems better than most. i think that you'd need to either be queer or be close to a lot of queer people in order to write something like this.
hopefully we get monthly updates for a while. this is probably the yuri i am most excited to see develop that is currently running.
