Mikan is never going to notice, Kaede. Just confess

It's nice to see that someone finally made this. Even if the whole point is encapsulated in the title

Zounose's little bonus is good on it's own rights, but, man, it doesn't work well coming after the main story

I found the anime a bit meh, but, yeah, there does seem to be an awful lot of focus on those two and their relationship. Also of note: It was original announced with no information other than a description as a "school x work romantic comedy" and a visual of Iris and Mizuki

I wouldn't get my hopes up, but I also wouldn't be terribly surprised if it goes the yuri route

Cute Akaga and a rare bit of Hiryuu x Souryuu. Nice

Decent "let me show you my hobby" slice of life thing. Haruka obviously being gay for Miki helps

♥ ♥ ♥

The show would have been so much better if it had gone with this pairing

So the Gakkou Gurashi anime only sort of resembles the manga. Which gives me a reason to watch it, I guess

Non Non Biyori Repeat is in fact a repeat in that it's covering the same time frame as the first series. Kind of an odd decision, but it's not like there's a plot that this is stalling, so...

Joukamachi no Dandelion is theoretically family based, but the kids are fairly clearly paired off, mostly in boy/girl pairings (the protagonist spends most of her time with one of her sisters). Also I don't think it's very good

In case anyone had any doubts that we're living in the future, giant robot fights are now a reality

and possible yuri in Gatchaman?

Possible! Definitely some ship tease, and Tsubasa seems sue-ish enough to be worthy of our lord and saviour Hajime

bcoz jojo and hunter x hunter obviously not 90s

Jojo is more 80s than 90s, really

And I'd agree that Ushio and Tora is 90s in a bad way: It's at the point in the cycle where it's clearly old, but not old enough that the things it's doing seem new. Which is to say that it's constantly throwing jokes at us that we've all seen dozens of times before

Only watched Symphogear S1, should i go for S2 and into S3? Like i think the S1 anime was decent, but the music was kinda suck

G is a lot better than the first season, and GX is off to a good start

Anyway into this coming season. So any yuri, yuri subtext, wincest, wincest subtext coming up?

There's Symphogear and Non Non Biyori on the yuri side, maybe Joukamachi no Dandelion on the incest one, and Himouto! Umaru-chan on both. Plus various things I don't know much about

Yeah, Symphogear is as gay as ever. Aside from the aforementioned HibiMiku, Kirika and Shirabe seem to be dating and there was some... interesting dialogue between Tsubasa and Chris. And it was just a fun episode in general. Probably the second-best premiere so far

Ushio to Tora didn't get picked up by crunchyroll?

It got picked up by... someone. Subs are out, anyway

Official works that are neither the primary work nor an adaptation, looks like

Classroom Crisis looks like it my have something going on between the two main girls. A bit early to call it yet, of course

want more wincest anime like mahouka and no game no life...

Dandelion, maybe?

Follow-up on that Vampire Hunter D thing. Short version: The people behind it have no idea what they're getting into, helped by the fact that they haven't started working on it. It'll probably be terrible if it happens, but I don't think it'll happen

Question! is Danchigai wincest or not?

From what little I've heard about the source material, it doesn't seem like it

Hyped as fuck...

"CG studio"

Goodnight sweet Prince....

Yeah... I like VHD more than the next person and want this to be good, but it's not something I can see working well in all-CG

They confirmed the anime coming out in October, too

The only problem with this one is that I just can't understand Komachi's dilemma here. Even if Akyuu dies, Komachi just ferries her over to the afterlife and continues to drop in and spend time with her. For a shinigami who runs a ferry across the border between life and afterlife, the death of a friend should warrant no more emotional turmoil than a friend moving from one side of town to the other.

Usually this would be the case; but, from what I gathered, Akyuu's soul is treated specially from other souls and has her identity and personality from her life erased during the reincarnation ritual to preserve her Gumonji. That was presumably why Komachi went out of her way to acquire the executor shinigami privilege. So she could remove and preserve the part of her soul and personality that made her distinctly Akyuu, her friend, and not Aichi, Ani, Ami or any of the other Miare incarnations or the Miare she would reincarnate into.

Or I'm completely wrong and I'm dumb. That could work too.

No, that's what I got out of it. Komachi was freaking out because souls aren't normally destroyed

Good stuff. Well made, fits with canon, and breaks out of the usual character groups

Also out of curiosity: Is Kobayashi a confirmed female?

Yes

The last words spoken in Re-Kan were literally "Yuri? Oh yes!"

So, with the season wrapping up, my impressions:

Owari no Seraph: Shit. Do not watch

Mikagura: Fun, gay. Supporting cast is kind of crap. Worth a look

Pleiades: Good tone, decent art, bad everything else. People around these parts are particularly unlikely to appreciate it, as the MC has good chemistry with a girl but ends up with a guy

Re-Kan: Passable? Large parts felt repetitive and dull, but it could be fairly good when it really tried. Also fairly gay when it really tried, but this showed up in the oddest places

Euphonium: Very well made, and I didn't like it. Yuri issues aside (which... I'll leave for other people to get into), it ultimately ended up being too dramatic and too unfocused for my tastes

Kekkai Sensen: Fucking awesome. Not yuri at all, though

I suspect I'd really like this story if I knew anything about these characters
