Well, that was something different. Kinda saw where it was going early on, though

Is it just me, or has there been a lot of food-themed yuri lately?

btw You guys have no idea how much I yearn for a Akagi x Kaga moment every new episode

Soon! Well, probably. Next episode is about Kaga, and the OP isn't exactly subtle about the pairings they're going with

This has never been the most normal series, but...

By default the admiral is a self-insert. Anime admiral is basically a non-entity, and it looks like Kongou is going to end up with Fubuki

She's level 100 and didn't have any girls that are interested in her drop?

But seriously though, good book. Nice to see something light-hearted from Jin

Hm, I don't like this as much as Tiv's other series, but it's still fairly decent

Hold on, does this mean younger kitty is a crossdresser? Or just an awkward translation?

No, Niu is male. Physically, at least; 8.5 seems to suggest transexuality

If we're talking KanColle pairings, there's been a lot of cute Akatsuki x Hibiki fanart recently

Good to see this here. Easily my favourite zombie series

If this was the first chapter of a series I'd say it has potential, but as a one-shot it didn't accomplish much

This'd be confusing if it ever got an anime

Our new protagonist-like character writes NanoFate porn. Yes

Oh, that's a nice drawing of Satori

Uh, book itself is decent, though fairly typical

Very popular Touhou fan character, if not the most popular.

Not saying much given the Touhou fandom's general opinion of OCs >_>

There's also five or so generic harem shows that I'm not even going to bother with.

SaeKano is very pretty, but harem antics to the max. Fafnir has some potentially interesting plot points and hasn't gone harem yet, but has no budget and clunky writing. The rest are trash

...I don't know why I watched all of them

Oh, Death Parade and Yoru no Yatterman are probably worth a look

Okay, other stuff:

Koufuku Graffiti is a fairly good slice-of-life show with a touch of SHAFT's surrealism. Currently not too high on yuri subtext, but could go that way very easily

Idolmaster Cinderella Girls... I honestly don't have much of an opinion on. It seems to be well enough made, at least

Rolling Girls is batshit insane. It's quite pretty and has some clear yuri potential, though

First, it was being translated by Horobi no Michi, who are dead. Second, the page on it here marks it as cancelled

Okay, we have stuff to talk about here again

Yuri Kuma Arashi is an Ikuhara series. Which is to say, what you're watching is an exaggeration of a metaphor that is, itself, a stand in for the point that Ikuhara is actually trying to make. There's yuri, but if you're watching solely for that I imagine you'll be disappointed

KanColle is pretty good. Also pretty gay. Kitakami and Ooi are doing their thing, and Fubuki seems to have a crush on Akagi

Two yuri shorts for the price of one. Not bad

So, the anime is insane. We're basically going straight for the "I don't know what's real" part of the series, skipping the bits that set everything up that Utena and Penguindrum had

Visual style reminded me a lot of Monogatari, but Monogatari has a fairly coherent story beneath the visuals, while this has multiple layers of symbolism

I think it's enjoyable, but not really on a surface level. Also, it'd be nice if people started translating the manga again

I can totally see the Monogatari vibe to it, but this was by the people that did Utena and Penguindrum, so its going to have more of a feel for those... other folks have said it has a SHAFT feel to it.

I'm familiar with Ikuhara's other work. What I'm saying is that I think he discovered Monogatari between making Penguindrum and this. There's always been some stylistic similarities, but the SHAFT feeling is more pronounced here than in his other works

And... just remember that this an adaptation of the manga, not a 1:1 version so where getting a mostly/partially original portrayal.

Technically it's the manga that's an adaption. The idea was originally Ikuhara's

Am I missing something, or is the game broken? There doesn't seem to be any way to progress after talking to the teacher

...Huh. Not entirely unheard of, but a bit odd that Isya is working with a scanlation group

I don't actually like Isya's stuff, so this doesn't mean much to me, though

So Hibari chose her school because it was the setting of the MariMite equivalent...
