There's so few manga that deal with the bullying that comes with being lgbt, if that keeps up this could be pretty good.
It's made by the guy who did Haganai and "A Sister is All You Need", both popular works that have very popular anime. My hope is that the big name of the author could make this one popular enough, too, to get an anime, which can also be popular and, thus, encourage even more big names to enter the Yuri scene and provide more variety to the genre.
I also hope Jun Maeda's new Yuri novel, which people are calling his best work yet, gets adapted, too, especially by a studio like KyoAni. It's quite exciting seeing big names enter the Yuri scene and seeing the genre grow so much from it.
I think it should be safe to touch on the HS's sexuality without sexualizing the HSer, and I'm hopeful this manga explores that.
Dunno how likely that is when the author's forte tends to be ecchi comedies and whatnot but it is possible that they leave their comfort zone to do something different.
This being a yuri manga I simply have to assume that it will eventually be revealed the author is at the very least bisexual and that her interest in cute girls is not platonic after all, but the dynamic, the motivations and the build up to that are very promising.
I've read that some of the big yuri artists, like Mira, Ayanero Taicho, and Morishima Akiko are actually straight women, interestingly enough. Mira apparently even has a husband and kids, too. If this is true and not just some made up rumour, what that shows is something that's been said for a long time, which is that the Yuri genre really is one that kind of transcends gender and sexuality, for all to enjoy
