My question is whether or not Choroko is really a fujoshi in the show.

The real warlords this is based on sent gifts to each other and had a deep respect for each other above other rivals. Then when one died the other mourned him. You can look this all up online. Anyway when I saw this on Bookwalker I was expecting sukeban gang warfare and I'm a bit disappointed that this is so plotless, at least so far.

Lol at "boku girl boyish-chan" not being tagged tomboy. Big cultural difference in perceptions on display here I guess.

I couldn't find this romantic at all. Devoting all of your energy to obtain literal seconds of contact at a door frame with a stranger sure is a perfect metaphor for parasocial relationships.

The extreme abruptness is what's supposed to be funny. Made me laugh, anyway.

I want to go to Girl Land...

Honestly I'm mostly here because I saw the artist post old woman yuri.

So grateful to Yuri Project for working on this series!

This manga definitely reads to me as an asexual person imagining their idealized relationship where the person you love wants to prioritize you in most things but has no expectation of sexuality. And the author's other manga explicitly running along those same lines confirms it for me. I'm really loving how much casual teasing and thinking about how to make the other person happy we're seeing from them in these newer chapters.

This dynamic is so good!!!!

Normally I don't really get the appeal of 4koma, but this is cute, and the translation is so good. I'm looking forward to the pranks becoming flirting.

I love how this asks the question of whether female friends who joke about being in a relationship really have feelings for each other and answers yes

Ive been in an angsty mood recently. Any1 got some recommendations for some oneshots or short series with drama/angst but a happy ending ?(and i dont mean like bittersweet, i mean a proper happy ending)

This is kind of my favorite thing, so I can find a lot of examples. For a variety of different works on this website there's Your Warmth, Water Depth, I Want to Lock You Up, Kusari wa mou Iranai, I Won't Say I Love You Anymore, The Distance of Love... a real weird one that still perfectly fits your wish is The Amazing Magic Only You Possess.

As much as I admire the author centering the whole manga around their ear cleaning fetish, I sure do not share that fetish. I wish they were just having sex after all! The plausibly deniable cheating here is so strange and interesting. They definitely were both getting off on it without telling each other, and thus they can pretend it's just an intimate friendship while feeling guilty deep down.

I'm not sure how to feel about this yet. I feel like it will definitely have an ending where they convince each other to choose life and start dating. But I hope it gets more fucked up than that...

So excited to see this on Dynasty!!

What a cute art style. I wish there was more manga on here by this artist.

Oh how nice indeed, any more recommendations on shoujo style yuri anybody???

Yuri Espoir!!

TIL a "cotton anniversary" means a second anniversary for married couples, because the traditional gift is cotton. Thus the "cotton wedding" invitation to celebrate the second volume, probably.

Loving that a yuri novel was popular enough to get basically a Broadway adaptation and that tons of clearly straight characters are going out of their way to watch it

This is my favorite April Fools joke I've seen this year. It's fun seeing the same things my friends and I worry about when we translate. Also, as much as I normally dislike student/teacher type age gap stories, the story and art were cute. It helps a lot that the teacher is actually just a maladjusted college student. I also really liked the depiction of finding someone's passionate fandom attractive, it's almost too realistic to usually come up in yuri.

For a while I've been biased against older yuri. It just seems consistently worse, less serious and certainly less in touch with lesbian themes. Akiko Morishima is completely the exception. I'm posting here to recommend specifically her Office Romance series, which is 10/10 for me every single chapter. While her works about teenagers are good, this is one is incredibly timeless and sweet, and it features luxurious wedding dress symbolism.

is please leave my house on dynasty or under an untranslated name? i can't find it in the directory

It's not available here, but you can read it on mangadex.

Love triangle was nice and all, but the Tower of Babel reference was what really elevated this for me. That's two for two stories from this anthology so far that've referenced scripture in a hilariously overdramatic way. Basic bitches go to drama school, but real theatre kids attend Catholic all-girls academies. Yeah, the lesbian thing's all well and good, but the primary draw is getting to say shit like, "Onee-sama, I've Immaculately Conceived this omelette for you" while everyone applauds. This is the Class S we need.

+1

Waiting for a girl to angstily say she's an abandoned sacrificial lamb, that would be really funny especially if they extended the metaphor

It feels like it should be frowned upon to come to your sworn homoerotic sister for love advice about someone else. Not that I'm objecting to it, angst is so much fun.
