Season preview, yuri-focus edition, because I'm bored:

Symphogear GX: The series started with Hibiki and Miku all but explicitly dating and has only gotten gayer since. And it should be one of the better parts of the season if it maintains G's quality

Non Non Biyori Repeat: Hotaru likes Koma-chan romantically. Nothing is going to come of this. Still, probably the best slice-of-life anime

Bikini Warriors: Yeah, this one is pretty self-explanatory. These sort of ecchi/action series tend to have some amount of yuri in them, so it might be worth a shot

Himouto! Umaru-chan: 4koma adaptation about an apparently perfect girl that's a slob at home. Apparently has some strong relationships between the girls, but also lots of strong relationships between the girls and their brothers. Also among the few series where everyone I've seen that's read it disliked it

Wakaba Girl: 4koma adaptation about a rich girl interested in kogal. Worth noting that this is a series of shorts

Gatchman Crowds insight: First season was strikingly LGBT-friendly and the second season's main additions are a couple of girls. Would not be surprised if one of them was a lesbian. On the other hand, the first season was a poorly-plotted mess starring a blatant Mary Sue espousing worringly naive morals

Sore ga Seiyuu!: 4koma adaptation about voice actresses. From the author of Hayate no Gotoku, which is vaguely haremish but mostly a comedy. Not really expecting anything here, but you never know

Other stuff of interest:

Gakkou Gurashi: One of the best manga on the site is getting an anime! Though there's some weird stuff going on with the advertising, though. Not sure if they're trying to make the first episode a surprise for newbies or if it's going to diverge from the manga

Dragon Ball Super: The video linked above is basically the entirety of what we know about it. Toei's lack of interest in advertising it is unlikely to be a good sign

God Eater: ufotable has escaped TYPE-MOON's clutches! ...And is making a videogame adaptation. Should look good, at least

Ushio and Tora: An adaptation of an old but famous manga, which is usually a good sign

Shienas Bizarre Adventure Assassins Crusade part 3 . 100/10 would watch

Looks like part 5 to me, or later. Eyes and lips, especially.

Stone Ocean was the first thing that came to mind for me

And to think that I'd expected a single-author anthology to have less variety than a multi-author one

I'm not sure how seriously I'd take anything written in a magazine that had "QB" in the title

Sumireko x Mokou 12 Jun 21:19

More specifically, what set it off is that Mokou's ending in ULiL somewhat jokingly played her interaction with Sumireko as romantic

Even ignoring the yuri, Euphonium has moved in a direction that doesn't really interest me

And, yes, Mikagura is about a lesbian love triangle

Huh, Musashi x Yamato is actually fairly rare. People usually pair Yamato with Yahagi or Houshou

The girl who secretly dislikes the bullshit of social interaction and the socially awkward but beautiful girl. Haven't seen that one before

That said, it's fairly well executed

Interesting. Feels like a one-shot, though

BTW is there any spring anime worth watching?

Like, in general? Blood Blockade Battlefront/Kekkai Sensen is fantastic

She could be talking about Amagi, which would be rather interesting in it's own right (and fairly humorous if a future event introduces her as a new ship).

Given that they added the Unryuu-class Amagi, this is fairly unlikely. And they seem to be sticking to ships that were around during the war, anyway

You know, I don't think I've ever seen Kaga angsting over Tosa

I wonder what happened to the subtext in Nobunagun... I thought it was an OK anime, but then, this episode in snow was so bad... So boring, I didn't pay atention anymore. But the MC was really lesb-... Friiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiendly with one girl in the first two episodes. I will pick it up again !

The show picks up again, but the yuri goes nowhere

I sort of assumed those two got together the concert

Anyone seen the show? How is it?

Not bad, per se, but something of a mess. Kyouto arc was easily the high point

I assume the yuri is none-existant in the actual show?

No explicit couples, but lots of girls with strong attatchments to other girls

Might want to change '99' to '099'

Fun chapter, though

yuri is dead in Re-kan! old man wins!

You'll take anything as an excuse to declare yuri dead, won't you?

Mind, the show seems to be dead-set on not living up to it's potential...

Huh, it feels like the yuri is actually going somewhere

Am I the only person that actually thinks they might ignore the source material and go for the yuri route? They've been doing a hell of a lot more to set up Kumiko and Reina than Kumiko and Shuuichi

Oh yeah, just a warnig about Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon, if anyone ever think about reading it, it's big, like reeeeealy big, bigger than Lord of The Rings, all books that composes the Lord of the Rings amounts to 1178 pages, the second volume of Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon is 1152 pages long, or at least is what TV Tropes says about it...

That comparison is kind of weird, since the number of pages in a book varies from edition to edition. A more worthwhile comparison is that it's a few times longer than The Wheel of Time

Cute. Art could stand to be a bit more consistent, though

Euphonium is currently setting up a het couple, but nothing to threaten Kumiko x Reina

I don't care what happened in the novels, KyoAni hasn't been faithful to the source material since Haruhi

And, yeah, RGZ+ started. Worth a look

Was never really able to get into the Bakuon manga, but this is the sort of thing I like better as an anime, so

That was amusing. Who is this Afro person?
