Actually if you listen to the developer commentary you'll know everything about the game. And the reason for those things is more simple than what you guys are explaining.

If anyone is still waiting to give Supergirl a shot, now's your chance. Honestly the coming out story throughout these past 2 episodes have made me shed tears and resonated with me so dearly, I can't quite describe it but I've never seen it so well done on television.

And you can bet your ass that this storyline is going to continue throughout this entire season so don't miss this if you want something refreshing.

She's a main character by the way so she's in every episode.

Now that we're talking about upcoming things:

Ryan Murphy confirmed a crossover American Horror Story season between Murder House and Coven, that means we get another shot at Misty and Cordelia, or atleast we'll see them together again, if Ryan knows what's good about his own show.

It actually doesn't look half bad. At least it is clearly a adaptation.

I'm feeling as if they kept her bisexuality intact to make it "look" interesting and nothing more.Even though I'm not happy with the cast I think I'll watch it anyways.

Brought Bloodborne DLC today.

Fucking shit its far more difficult than Dark Souls 3.

But thats the fun.

I almost liked Old Hunters DLC more than the actual games, because of the bosses and the areas.

Yuri?

Go find out. It doesn't cost you a penny (although if you choose to pay on itch, all proceeds are going to Lambda Legal).

Can't you be a little nicer? "Go find out" -_-

There are many free games on Steam too but very few are good. I know shouldn't be complaining about free just wanted to make my doubts clear.

Lambda Legal, huh? Will see it.

It is yuri and it's absolutely worth it, more than any LN out there.

I heard Dishonored 2 has some lesbian/bisexual NPCs and headcanon worthy love story for Emily. Anyone knows anything about that?

Don't know anything abt that, but if it's true I might finally get into Dishonored and play it.

Yeah, Alex just came out in S02E05 and she has a love interest and it's pretty exciting.

Been playing Oxenfree and I'm upset there's not more Nona/Alex fanfiction.

I hope the they start getting along with eachother and ditch the MC, that'd be a love triangle I'm actually okay with.

I am watching Devilman Lady right now. Been on episode 13. I heard it contains yuri too. Is it true?

True and worth it!

Time to resurrect this thread to point people towards Black Mirror if they aren't aware of it. Each episode is a standalone story and season 3 episode 4 is relevant to our interests.

Absolutely. Loved every second of it, also an interesting concept. And probably also one of the only things worth investing time in.

Other than that, First Girl I Loved came out and although it was bitter, I enjoyed it a lot.

Gotta admit, Toukou going School Days on us would be amazing

Oh hell no!

that's why Hibike Euphonium blew up so much even though it's bait. If we had more stories like that with fleshed out characters that feel real and relatable narrative, we'd have things to actually look forward to.

Hibike Euphonium is just shitty bait that dicks us over. It doesn't even work as subtext because it leads us to believe that they might get together, but they don't. Subtext is stuff like "Love live" and "A room for two". Subtext is when the characters are very close friends.

I never said it's subtext. It's their relationship in general that I'm talking about.

The biggest issue with yuri is that they recycle the same settings. School girls have been done to death, and while there are occasionally some nice twists within the school girl genre.. it's not enough to make up for the fact that school girl still reigns supreme in yuri. Especially when you consider that a lot of the yuri we get is one-shots.. doing a story in a school setting is quick and easy. It takes more work to make something unique and interesting like sci-fi, or fantasy..

The last few yuri anime released have been school girl as well, but some had good appeals. Yuri Kuma took a fantasy setting about bears, and Akuma No Riddle was about girls trying to kill each other. If people wanna do more school girl yuri, we need more interesting stuff like that. (I'm also not counting valkyrie drive mermaid. i didn't watch it because it looked like a male-gaze fanservice nightmare)

We need more adult yuri, college yuri, fantasy yuri.. anything that isn't just school girls. It's heart-breaking looking at amazing yuri series like Flower Flower, which had gorgeous art and enjoyable characters with an interesting story that was slowly building up.. only for it to never get finished. But we get an endless supply of school girl yuri. School girl series are the mcdonalds of yuri... cheap and easy.. we need more quality food.

I think the biggest problem with the genre, what makes it rather weak, Is the recycling of the plotlines, and not its settings. Yuri is kinda of a subgenre of romance, BUT yuri sticks to even less of the typical pitholes of romance you can find in the usual Het stuff.

Making them college/adult settings really doesn't change much other than the context, general plotlines remain the same every single time.

Its always tension/drama with a third wheel/love triangle/or someone trying to stop them, and other than that there is the gay drama we've seen over and over and over. Read one yuri, and you've basically read every yuri ever.

that aside, I also don't see a lot of the writing to be any good... but well, thats kinda the case with every manga/anime and not just yuri tho...

True but lately the writing has felt even less genuine for yuri stories, that's why Hibike Euphonium blew up so much even though it's bait. If we had more stories like that with fleshed out characters that feel real and relatable narrative, we'd have things to actually look forward to.

Yuri is all the same you guys... literally every story is similiar.

Edit: That's why I'm getting tired of it.

Main couple aside I hope sayaka gets out of that love triangle and gets a gf who appreciates her. Why do the good ones always fall in love with the hopeless?

yeeeess so much yuri in shuumatsu no izetta

Agreed, a good start. I hope they stick with the theme because the director writes a lot of BS into his stories so he might screw it up.

But it has potential to be quality yuri, finally.

Is the new love live characters as obnoxiously shit as the first series?
I only watch part of ep1 and I wanted to kill myself.

Absolutely, I watched the first series without any problems, sure it was cheesy but not this bad.

To be honest, I wish there were more mature yuri shows. These moe shows are good, but not something I personally like.

Totally agree. I want something like Utena again or just the older yuri series that were romantic and not just cute and full of ''hints''.
