I am looking for something that is a good read and starts off strong, I have read Girlfriends and i want the relationship to start alot earlier. any suggestions?

Can't believe no one's mentioned this yet - Kisses, Sighs and Cherry Blossoms Pink by Morinaga Milk. Same mangaka as Girl Friends, but the main couple (there are some one-shots of other couples) get together after one chapter, if I remember right.

I think Octave also fits the bill if you haven't read it yet.

I didn't see those in the list so I'd suggest the Handmaiden (not seen yet but I will as soon as they release it) and Persona (even if it's not really yuri, you can feel the yuri vibe, I guess). And also the The Children's Hour (even if this is fucking sad, I love this and I hate this at the same time).

The Handmaiden is very good, it's right up there with Saving Face as my favorite gay movie. It's also based on Sarah Waters' novel Fingersmith, which is excellent.

There's a very long discussion thread here if anyone's interested: http://s1.zetaboards.com/L_Anon/topic/5920311/1/

Also there are trailers on YouTube.

I thought this was pretty meh too.

Watch Lily Fever instead! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghbP2K-2w4M&list=PLdBvEUNP7RyeLcb8WCKDnRjOxqTW00fun It's way better.

Episode 8 was uploaded earlier today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98U6UsJKMb0

We're nearly at the end of the pilot season, there's only an epilogue left. I read on another forum that the director already has the storyline and scripts for a second season, and the fans and the actresses want another season too, but they're having money problems...

If anyone here knows Korean, please tell Dingo Studios to launch a Kickstarter campaign!

By the way, what is the music you hear during the opening?

The opening song is sung by the actresses of the 2 main characters, Kim Hyejoon (Kyungju) and Jung Yeonjoo (Serang). The director made it available for download at http://blog.naver.com/simock/220568536248. Click on the green arrow near the top of the post (before the pictures), then on 내PC 저장 to download it.

This made my day when I watched it yesterday! I must have rewatched episodes 2 and 3 at least 5 times now, lol. The good news is, more episodes will be released tomorrow! Now if only they could make each episode an hour long... or release 30,000 of these short episodes...

Seju cheated on Sumin, but she did it OUT OF LOVE if she didn't care about Sumin she literally would not have liek cheated, she only cheated because she was SOOO worried about Sumin leaving her!!!!111!!

Like wtf where is the logic?????

I think the argument is that if Seju didn't love Sumin she wouldn't have felt miserable when it appeared that Sumin might leave her, wouldn't have gone out to drown her sorrows, and wouldn't have been despondent enough to be tempted to seek comfort in someone else.

Obviously, that was a giant mistake.

Haha I knew someone would ask that, no but I've been a long-time lurker and thought it was time to step out of the shadows a bit.

This makes me curious about who those of us here on Dynasty would choose.

Personally, my top 5 would be:
1. Shizuru from Mai HiME
2. Chikane from Kannazuki no Miko
3. Tohsaka Rin from Fate Stay Night / Unlimited Blade Works
4. Miyako from Hidamari Sketch
5. Saber from Fate Zero or Natsuki from Mai HiME
