I've always thought that yuri could use more references to sans from undertale

get u a girl who treats you like trash

Made me cry a little, but it's the kinda twist that really only works in fiction. Rejecting and abandoning someone to "give them space to pursue their dream" rather than being there with them and supporting them along the way IS kind of a jerk move

Pinning your partner, who would give her life for you, to the floor and wiping the tears she shed for your sake (but not in a gay way)
Swearing to be with your partner, who you would give your life for, wherever she goes, and gently toying with a lock of her hair while she sleeps beside you (but not in a gay way)

It's hard not to ship these two after this, I think

Everyone in this manga obsessing over Hanaoka's boobs all the time is starting to get pretty uncomfortable. I've never understood this type of humor

Y'know, of all the uses of the bodyswap trope I've seen, I don't think I've ever seen this approach of using it as a way to show both characters how the other one sees them. Feels kinda fresh

I know enough about knowing things to know that this cliffhanger will not be leading to anything

Anime girls are so terrifyingly fragile. A single splash of water can give them a cold, and the light impact of a sport ball is enough to knock them fully unconscious

The rules:
- Every day repeats an average of 5 times, the amount is entirely random.
- When tomorrow does come, a random day from those repetitions is chosen as "canon" to reality.
- Only Ayaka is aware of this, and remembers everything in perfect detail.
- More rules to come. It gets wild. Read and enjoy :)

If the gap between Tanya's current form and her mature form is that big, then it means she's not just a child, but a very young one. Like. Early teens or younger.
Shoulda trusted my gut feelings on this one from the start, I guess

Only 10% of people who are struck by lightning actually die from it. If she does, then y'know what?
Skill issue.

don't try to deny who you are just for someone you like, if they love you then they'll appreciate your interests too

So the events of the past changed the future, and yet those past events apparently never happened in the future she ended up in... huh...?

I've been waiting all my life for a lesbian megazord with a gay marriage themed design, I just didn't know that I was until today

I knew they probably wouldn't remove the incest subplot, but I was at least hoping they'd, uh, adjust Rei's line equating homosexuality's forbidden-ness to incest.
Even if it may technically be true in the specific world they're in, it just feels like it didn't really need to be there, or at the very least didn't need to be said by someone who so strongly believes that homosexuality shouldn't be seen as wrong, y'know?
Anyway, at least this particular "plot point" gets out of the way pretty quickly and doesn't hold too much bearing on the rest of the actual plot.

Ah, so basically the world was turned into a creative mode Minecraft server. I see

And thus, a new idiot couple is born...

the curse of the Useless Lesbian (or uselessbian curse for short) has struck gensokyo... no women are safe

I love the premise, so I really wish there was just a liiiiittle bit more on the end. I've read this a bunch of times now, and the way that Misaki seems to just have a look of fear or disgust in the last panel rather than, like, blushing or something, has always bothered me. I dunno, if there were just a few more panels...

okay, I MUST know. where could one, hypothetically, find this "Yuri Cineplex"?

Can't tell if that was meant to be a kiss or just a "it looks like they might be kissing from this angle but it was actually a fakeout", but I guess that's the point.
Anyway, as far as subtext goes:
...at least they acknowledged the existence of homosexuality, that's a heck of a lot more than most subtext series can say.

Subtlety is fine. Subtlety is cool.
But when straight folks get to take always having explicitly confirmed romances for granted and us gays are still struggling under the will-they-won't-they coin toss for every other piece of media we consume... it's pretty much impossible for me to not feel frustrated and let down.

this is how I feel after a long and arduous day of trying to enjoy mainstream media and its excessive heteronormativity.
thanks dynasty scans dot com for always being a reliable refuel point

I know the whole "confessing your love after the chance has passed and they're already dating someone else" trope is popular and makes for some heartwarming moments in fiction and all that, but I don't get it.
Like, try doing that to someone in real life and chances are pretty high they'll either recoil or the situation will just immediately turn awkward as heck. I told my best friend (at the time) that I used to have a crush on her when we first met, and her reaction was like, "oh god, yikes, thank goodness you stopped feeling that way," and then it set in motion the end of our friendship a couple months later.
