Though not often the most convenient, the Recently Added tab shows that, so you could theoretically double-check the current date(s) there if you feel you've missed something.

But just how much blushing is needed for a work to get this tag?

A manga that someone who really loves blushing would want to read.

Near-constant small blushes with several (~once per 3 pages) full-face blushes, several full-face blushes (~once per 2 pages), or Blushing as a significant topic or theme in the manga. Oh, and if someone's blushing at their fingertips that's probably a good sign that it needs the tag!

Example of the first
Example of the second
...don't actually have an example of the third, but I bet you'd know it when you see it.

Thank you very much to the Asian Scanlation Sensation(s) for allowing us to host this! Been wanting to get it here for a long while. Fun and cute series, whose proper serialization just started a week ago. Looking forward to more soon.

Chapters 1-5 will be re-uploaded in better quality...whenever I can find those. Or MangaDex comes back, I guess.

We need more "meeting mom yuri."

Sorry for the upload delay

Prequel may be found here: https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/its_ok

Yeah, it's gotten a bit confusing now. I don't think there's enough content released for the holiday specifically to justify its own tag, but mixing the two together creates some unintended expectations...we'll figure it out soon.

All right, Wataten should be fixed now, thanks for the note. We actually did update the archive ~3 years ago...but this wasn't reflected on the site for some reason. Some strange bug I guess. I can't easily check all other manga to note any size discrepancies like that, but thanks for the note and by all means point it out again if you see it!

^That second one has revealed its true colours now.

I've got a request.

Chapter 1 of Wataten has painfully slow page load times (for me) due to one of the worst examples of file bloat I've ever seen. The translator posted a resaved version almost immediately, but obviously it never got uploaded (and the link's long dead). Could someone compress the files a bit and re-upload the chapter for the benefit of future readers? I could do the first part easily enough (saving about 170MB as it happens), but I'm not sure where I could upload them without the hassle of creating an account somewhere.

I didn't fix this...but it looks good now at ~30 MB. Please do let me know if you see any other issues.

Edit: Wait a second...I lied. Something is weird, I'll look into this.

Sup, new user here.
So yeah, my insecure self used too much the preview post button and I got marked as spam. How do I get that removed?

This is fixed now, sorry for the trouble. Enjoy your stay.

Really awesome to see an update.

What a cute and nicely-sized manga. Lots of great stuff in here, so happy with Takebe’s development throughout. Also a lot of amazing faces and reactions, Murata is really skilled with those! And the kiss was just perfect!

Christmas came early this year, tysm emer! I'll go get the HetZek whenever I can figure out how to contact them.

I feel this weird second-hand pride of/for Muromaki, knowing how long and hard she worked for this to become a reality. I can remember exchanging brief messages with her ~8 years ago to get her work here, and now she's a full-blown mangaka. Like sheesh, that is so cool! So happy for her. That Special Dedication at the end was also a bit painful to read, but I was really grateful she included that. Wishing her nothing but the best in the future, she deserves it!

It's kinda hard to determine chapter numbers at this point, since the tank has the story split up into four mega chapters (with the new content picking up about two-thirds of the way through the third "chapter") rather than the 4-5 page Twitter chapters, so I'm just gonna translate these in segments and seperate them into chapters depending on how self-contained they are plot-wise.

I can confirm that you only need to exclude the first two pages that you included in ch17 from the numbering (e.g. treat them as "000a" and "000b"), then number everything afterwards from 1 onwards, and it will perfectly line up with the page numbers in the table of contents (the "chapter cover" pages come before the first pages of their respective chapters). If you want, I can send you the properly organized comic to save you the time and effort.

If you could send an Upload Request with that or dm me on Discord @ Orange Pekoe#0863 I'd be happy to check it out.

Sometimes, the discussions had on dynasty scans dot com...

Science babies was created as a result of iPS cells and their popularization in certain fandoms (like Saki or K-On!). You'll notice a search for "iPS" actually brings up the tag, because it's been an alias since forever ago. Science babies was intended to cover instances where two women were able to have a baby through advanced technology. It's not until a few years after the tag's creation that Magic babies start to become much of a thing, and was inducted into the tag. On this site, anyway.

There's also some weird lack of distinction going on - if I said "a goat created by science", would one picture a goat created in a lab, or a goat that was born from two parents of the opposite sex? These are both "science" at work, technically, but only one is ever colloquially described as having been created by science. The other is sex, and was therefore created "naturally." From drugs to construction, I can't honestly think of many exceptions to this phraseology, either.

Anyway, the names might change at some point. I don't really know. If you have something else to add please bring it to the Help thread.

Tagging for the presence of perfectly regular offspring seems as redundant to me (in the overwhelming majority of scenarios I can think of) as tagging for regular human characters would be.

Dynasty may be chronically slow to change and often completely un-receptive to feedback, but the justification for ~95% of tags created post-2018 is "a bunch of people wanted it." Yuri stories with kids are exceedingly rare, but are highly-sought. That's basically all there is to it.

Thank you!

Well, I finally read it properly.

The ending of the main relationship was really strange, and feels cut entirely too short. Chapter 9 gives us the lead-in to botched confession drama, and then chapter 10 neatly - like oh my gosh this is Yuri how is this so neatly done! - ties it up with a more proper confession, accepted silently. That same confession is even postulated upon by other characters! The sequence is so sweet, too. I was really happy...until I reached chapter 13, and the whole thing basically gets run back again. Like I understand the insatiable desire for will-they-won't-they action, but this sequence was just so weirdly strung together. I'm left imagining alternate scenarios where Ohsawa gets to establish and play with those post-chapter 10 dynamics for another volume before jumping into the concert arc, which clearly had more build-up than we saw pay off.

More importantly...Yuri Hime seriously robbed us of the opportunity to see them in these friggin fabulous shirts? And Hibiki in a suit! That's unforgivable...

All that said, add me to the list of people shouting, "It's really good!", even if I'm left unsatisfied. Serializations often seem to be better ending too soon rather than too late, but Ohsawa's writing in this was so top-notch, it barely felt like a serial at all. The callback to the dad ~7 chapters later was like, woah. That was so long ago! Yet the conflict felt natural and really re-framed others parts of the story in a new light. Surely she would've treated us to more surprises like that as time went on. I loved everything about Chika and Sakiko's relationship too, there were some neat tropes in there.

Oh and the art?? Is super good?? Not only are all these characters super well-drawn, but they totally destroy manga syndrome. I love the clash in each couple's design - Chika's angular face and harsh eyebrows with Sakiko's soft, openness were really impressive to me particularly. When Chika gets swept up in Sakiko's beauty it's like, yeah. Of course she does, because Sakiko is drawn to be beautiful in a way no other character is.

One thing I'm kinda sad about is that we really didn't get any reveal or conclusion about Ema's life or lover huh. She was nice and a good support character but I feel like we never really got to explore her as a person compared to the other members of the cast.

Oh yeah and second this! There were some really cute moments with her, would've been awesome to see her evolve and become less mysterious.

Problem is, that not all the yuri series are being uploaded to Dynasty. For example, all of squiggles works or the latest OneeLoli anthology, among others. I have checked the r/manga reddit in hopes of seeing them there but nothing, and following dozens of discord channels is just too bothersome. So yeah, I really wish Mangadex will come back faster.

Could you point out to me the OneeLoli anthology we're missing?

Fondofyuri posted:

Is it me or are there more and more really bad ecchi/hentai mangas on this site and less and less true yuri?
To each his/her own I suppose. I have nothing against ecchi/hentai, although the “quality” (I know, plot doesn’t count, does it? And art? Who cares about art?)
I miss true love/friendship stories (yes, sex-scenes included, I am not citrused) that are not centered on fan-service for peeping toms, whoever they identify to.

To be honest, I'm not sure if there's a question or suggestion here. We upload basically whatever is Yuri that is translated sufficiently well to meet our standards (for translation). If you're noticing some change, it seems to me that would be on the translator side, which has little to do with us. I don't believe this is a real trend but I don't read everything on the site, so I won't say more than that.

Too bad for this bot, which took a while to edit in its link, that I was reminded about it just now.

Nice, thanks.

I have noticed over maybe the last 6 months to 1 year, I could be off as I suffer from epilepsy and my short term memory can get off a bit, but there has been a steady increase in uploaded manga, such as "Everyday Monster Girls" which are an HET manga unrelated to any yuri or gl events in the series.

Your posts would be nicer to read if you put occasional line breaks between large walls of text. I'm not intending offence, it's just a bit hard to read when it's all text with no extra visual indicators for the eye to parse with. Everyday Monster Girls was last uploaded in 2016, it is not a new addition to the site and it was dropped by its uploader (for reasons I do not know).

It was noted in comments that the uploaded personnel knew it had been licensed and that chapters should have been taken down as was done with "First Love Sisters." The uploaded comment was that she knew of this but "shrugged her shoulders" and uploaded licensed chapters anyway. My points are twofold, 1) this is the height of hypocrisy to upload licensed manga chapters (again are not yuri/gl) and to delete licensed chapters of a strictly yuri manga volume

Given that this occurred 8 years ago, I do not much wish to discuss the particulars. It was 8 years ago. The current policy for licensing is stated in the FAQ, and reads as such:

" Why is my favourite series still on the Reader even though it was licensed?

Any work licensed in the US will be removed at the discretion of the publisher(s) and scanlation team(s) involved. Works that lack a scanlation until after the manga has been licensed are not typically uploaded, but exceptions may be made."

First Love Sisters was scanlated by Lililicious, a group that always does its best to erase its scanlations from the internet after they have been licensed. 14-sai no Koi, a primarily Het series, was also removed from the Reader when it became apparent to us that the translator for the first few volumes didn't wish for it to be distributed any longer.

2) is this mainly a yuri site or not.

Practically speaking, yes. Yuri currently makes up over ~80% of our catalogue, and when including Subtext and Yuri Crush, that number easily balloons to over ~85% of our catalogue. Contrary to what some may believe, Touhou Project is actually significantly more common on the site than Het, even when controlling for other factors. Further, yuri-related content as a percentage of the site's contents has actually grown in the last six years, from around ~78% in 2014 to around ~87% today.

I have been a member here for many years and the site has always been marketed as a mainly yuri/gl site with the only HET was that which was relative to a yuri or gl story.

I do not know who marketed it that way, but to the extent that the team has opined on this, I believe most would say, "We upload what we like, and most of what we like is yuri." It's not really more complicated than that.

I am not sure who is running oversight on this site, but I fear if this trend continues, you are going to lose the support of many diehard yuri fans.

I do not deny that it is possible that some fans of certain genres will leave the site if they find themselves unsatisfied.

If this is a matter of funds needed, why not make an announcement with some different ways funds could be raised. I would personally rather pay a small monthly fee then have to slog my way through many HET fan service stories trying to find those with a yuri or gl tag to make sure I get to the kind of story I want.

I do not believe that there currently is, or will be in the future, a "slog" of Het stories to wade through to find the content you wish to find. To the extent that a change has been observed, it represents only a very small trend that in the long-run will balance out. The site is in good financial standing, whatever uploading decisions are made has nothing to do with that. We have not ever and will not ever seek funds from users, in any form or fashion.

As owners of this site, can you please answer us these questions: Is this a site that has and does cater mainly to yuri and gl comic fans? If not, will you remove those things used as yuri marketing tools, such as the little girl in the hat on the D on the header word dynasty?

I think that is up to the fans of those genres to decide, as we cater only to our own interests. I'm not sure what the girl has to do with yuri specifically, but she won't be removed. She's an icon.

Because if this is in fact not a yur I site, then I will have ti find another site to refer people to and actually for me to go to as well cause I like going to a site that had 99.9% yuri/gl works. I hope you can answer these for me and I thank you in advance for your time.

Thank you too, take care.

This is a Yuri site.
* Obligitory comment pathologically making sure to refer to the daughter as 'he/him' *

You know they've begun making assaults on 'Mother/Father' titles? Mother is now 'Birthing Parent,' Father is 'Co-Parent.' Even this manga and your comments are out-of-date relative to identity cultists' terminology developments.

'Cringe is a slur' therefore Banned. ''Ignore the trolls.''
It really is just anything you don't want to hear/read isn't it. Next is any mention of chromosomes or even role in procreation. Not that any reader would comment such things unless they were just a malicious troll, huh.

This is not a "Yuri site", we never claimed it was. That user wasn't banned for using the word cringe, cringe is not a slur. The rest of your post is just vague nonsense about being silenced for bringing up topics that have absolutely nothing to do with this manga and are at best violating rule 11. You've been banned indefinitely, take care.

Please stop responding to this thread. There's a lot of misconceptions to go through, it's better for me to just do it. I'll reply soon.

Thank you for your work!

This is sort've like therapy.

Ah! Muku! Great to see.

Definitely not a spoilsport, but I find this so stupid, there's a bunch of cool and genuinely interesting stuff out there that ought be uploaded here, yet, for whatever reason, is blatantly ignored and shafted for something that is not even the actual story.

If it's something already translated, then by all means, please send in an Upload Request.
