Redhead Bowsettes are out there. But they're a minority, and I agree that that's a shame.

Too pure for this cruel world.

Original Yuri Doujin by M. Night Shyamalan

YoshiMoko was a thing for awhile. But Yoshida seems to have been muscled out of the running by the other girls, and these two have had some very subtle interactions in the meantime.

Like Lovecraft, but instead of humans broken by revelations of existential insignificance, it's girls being super fucking lesbian for each other.

Also... you know... not virulently racist.

This is terrifyingly gay and I love it.

Yuri has more history with Tomoko, but boy did Asuka open up strong.

If she keeps up the pace from the previous chapter, she'll be in bed with Tomoko before the end of the volume.

You can get it directly from the scanlators. Just search for "World Three Watamote"

Nemo, the tryhard lesbian.

Yes, thus far it's only been subtext (emoji girl notwithstanding).

If you aren't into subtext then fine. But there is a reason Watamote attracts yuri fans and yuri artists.

I make it a point to strongly suggest readers start from the beginning, but ultimately it's their choice. Hell, it's fine if they don't read it at all. Especially if it isn't appealing to them.

The anime only covers the beginning of the series, which has a minimal amount of yuri subtext.

The real subtext starts around the current midpoint of the manga, which is up to 140 chapters.

I think Mikage's brain short-circuited during a kiss and she can't remove her face from Hinata's. Hinata is tapping out because she can't breathe.

Here we go again:

I strongly recommend any prospective readers to start from the beginning of the series, and at least try to take in the entire story from its beginning. The development of Tomoko's character and even the evolution of the story's genre over time is the greatest aspect of the series. Cutting straight to the later chapters removes a lot of their impact when they aren't contextualized by where Tomoko came from.

If you have trouble getting through those early chapters, taking it slowly, chapter by chapter usually helps.

Ultimately, I don't blame anyone if they end up just really, really unable stand the beginning of the series and they decide to gloss over it. But again, at least give it a shot.

Alright, fine. Here's a list of when and where yuri and yuri subtext occurs: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/HoYay/NoMatterHowILookAtItItsYouGuysFaultImNotPopular

In the comments the author notes that they had to make up the colors of the outfits (chapters are in black and white), and that blue is the color of the Virgin Mary. They also gave Asuka a not-as-subtle middle age-style halo.

Tomoko and Katou visit a Christian missionary university in Japan. Between the events of the chapter and its setting Tomoko ends up comparing Katou to the Christian saint.

Asuka isn't blushing here; that's just how the artist draws faces.

The latest chapter made this just a little bit more plausible...

This page and the next is the result of Nemo provoking Tomoko in their "lewdness competition."

Wow. Out of context that line is crazy gay.

Ayame? Is that you?

Also, this manga doesn't over-sexualize Yuzu, unlike most of the other Loli-Yuri stuff I've seen that contain sexualization of children (like having huge boobs for a pre-adolescent girl, big butt, pee jokes, showing clevage etc.). The author handles the visualization of Mimika's attraction for Yuzu really well, without actually fetishizing her.

THANK YOU.

The narrative does a very good job of conveying that Mimika - specifically and solely Mimika - is sexualizing Yuzumori. Yuzumori doesn't appear suxualized or act provocatively on her own (despite certain people being in vehement denial of that fact). When she's just sitting there playing video games or studying, the panels aren't taking blatant focus on risque parts of Yuzumori's body. Those shots only come when Mimika starts leering, and are clearly taken from her point of view. They effectively illustrate Mimika's obsession, but glamorize it far less than the typical lolicon story.

I think dropping the yuri/yuri subtext is a bad idea and the authors know it. It's one of the main reasons for the manga's second wind.

Non-Tomoko ships need more love on the site.

The more interesting part of Shun addressing Shinsuke as "mistress" is that he goes along with it without hesitation.

Clingy Yuri best Yuri.
