^ You certainly can complain about futanari work not drawn as nice as it should be, or it missing something, or maybe even the dick should be grown on the other girl instead of portrayed in work.

But you're complaining about the existence of futanari under a futanari comic. You saw the futa tag, decided you do not like it but nevertheless fine to went along with it. And then you read the work and decided it's not and decided to let everyone (who's likely enjoying futa works) know you have problem with futa... Why, even?

My question was of a general nature, not limited to my actual posts themselves.
And to be clear, so you can't just frame it in your prefered narrative, the work itself was NOT just futanari. It was a compilation of art where MOST were not futanari related at all. Indeed, it was merely tagged on in individual pictures.

And no, I will not quietly let you attempt to make it seem like one can only discuss a tag in a way that is positive towards the tag itself being in the work, just with different tastes on how it is integrated. That is too convenient for you.

Trying to veil complaints about futanari content as valid criticisms is still complaining works that are properly tagged as such. You're trying to split hairs over being against an author choosing to depict futanari content or something close to it. Either way it is tagged as such, and continuing to complain about it is breaking rule 10. You've been told to drop it already; if you disagree still, you can leave through your volition or ours.

So instead of actually engaging with my question, in the thread about explaining rules and questions, you choose to threaten me? Is this what the moderation on this site has stooped to?
Not even considering that perhaps it is the rule that is badly worded or thought out and instead blindly enforcing it at the convenience of whatever you prefer... that is indeed a slippery slope.

I am not splitting hairs, this is a fundamental issue that should be considered. I am well aware why this rule was added. It's because the mods got tired of people complaining about het works being added to the site on het releases. This was an inevitable consequence of pushing het content on what is universally perceived as a yuri site and I think giving yourself a nuke button in response to the majority telling you their opinion was probably the laziest solution.
But this is not the same thing.

One of your mods used this rule to pretend that me giving contra to someone saying that the character would totally do something related to the tag is not allowed.
The poster I replied to just before this has repeatedly tried to push the narrative that one cannot say anything negative about the inclusion of a tag or topic despite it being completely normal to engage with the content of a work in such ways.
This is the kind of culture you are fostering.

Let's use a different example. You got a work that is tagged both comedy and drama. I make a post about how I really love the comedy, but hate the drama of the work. Now you come along and tell me that it was tagged drama, so I have no right to say I dislike drama. Even though my comment simply engaged with the work, both positive and negative, you are resorting to shutting down everything unilaterally.
I find it concerning that this is not obviously a bad look to so many people here.

Can Forum Rule 10 be abused to kill off any disagreements on claims or discussion of something that is tagged in the work?

For example, if something is tagged futanari, am I not allowed to say anything negative about futanari content in the work, even if it's a statement about the quality or a refutation of someone's claim on said content?
Furthermore, if a work has several tags and topics, is it not acceptable that someone may praise one aspect relating to a tag and show dismay on another's inclusion?

To me this just appears like slippery slope if used in such vague terms. This would be a handwave rule made for the sole purpose of shutting anyone's opinions or thoughts down when the mod in question feels like it that day. To mention that one dislikes the tag or how it is used in the work is not offensive to other parties or affects them in any way. I may give more weight to repeated spam for the sole reason of complaining about a tag, but that would require the tag to be the sole focus of such rants and to have them not relate to the actual subject matter being discussed.

Did you know that some lesbians have dicks?

And? This one doesn't.

Licentious Lantern, we do have a rule against complaining about tags you don't like. Just drop it.

I understand that this rule was added only because of certain people here disliking anything being said that doesn't suit their echo chamber, but this is really overkill. You aren't even allowed to disagree with people's claims anymore? You are aware that you are purposely misconstruing what that rule is about just to get your way now, right?

I will bring this to the rules thread to see if everyone in the moderation agrees with your assessment...
EDIT: Except the discussion version of the rules thread has been erased so that people cannot even speak up efficiently... this site really has gone downhill.

Then don't comment about not wanting Futanari stuff under futanari stuff that's tagged as futanari. If you can't accept it but still comment about not wanting it, while you're already given the chance to avoid, you'd be violating rule 10.

Also you're missing my point. I mean "don't complain under works tagged futanari about it having futanari stuff".

My comment was not just about the futanari stuff, it was just a side-remark on this one aspect of the compilation.
Also resorting to this kind of gag order is a sad state of affairs... If I can ignore futa art, you can ignore my disgruntled remarks, right? I have not personally attacked you in any way. I simply commented on both the positives and the negatives of this art compilation, so why are you so personally offended?
Unbelievable...

^ Please block this tag so I won't have to see you complaining about futanari. Win-win.

No. I won't miss out on good art just because someone sneaks futanari stuff into the compilation.

You can blacklist tags, you know. There’s no need to subject yourself to futanari and then rant about it in the comments.

You missed the point. I refuted the claim, that is all. Also most of the art in this was not futanari related. It was an unnecessary addition, but the rest of the art is good.

considering that she made yachiyo her whole body android, the probability of creating a fully functioning android dick is frankly quite high

Except this work depicts Iroha having the "dick", so it's apparently some kind of attachable add-on instead of an android part. Or the author was just lazy and made her a futanari out of convenience.
Either way I completely disagree with the notion that Iroha would create this. Most lesbians are not into dicks. There is no need for it in the first place. I find the idea that just because tech advances, lesbians would suddenly graft robot male genitalia on themselves repulsive. Even strap-ons are hit or miss for many.

Not a fan of the futanari implication in those last few pictures. Very unnecessary.
Otherwise I very much love the fanon about Yachiyo constantly appearing in a loli form around Iroha because of her insecurity about her age.

Of all the fan works, this one struck me as the most profound. The artist on Twitter/X released this as if it was any other fanart, but they created probably the most poignant and perfect interpretation of Yachiyo I have ever seen in just a few pages.

The "capsule" is Kaguya's spaceship. That is literally the thing she traveled to Earth with, so calling it a spaceship is fine.

And yes, Kaguya is Yachiyo and can copy herself. But the Ray MV implies Kaguya becomes mortal and in a way "huiman", so there is some question to Yachiyo's continued existence. Perhaps Kaguya simply logs in as Yachiyo sometimes. We have to remember that the Return Concert happens before the burying of the spaceship.

It really is Mami's fault for being straight. We had a pair the spares ship right there.

@Zesc
There is no reason to assume they don't get married, but it doesn't have to be like this. The real fox people behind them and all make clear this is a "kitsune wedding" AU. It is worth looking up, as this is a very interesting mythological concept.

They are in fact both yuri. Only one of them is well written though and it may surprise you that it's not the one with 8+ novel volumes...

Finally an artwork that acknowledges Iroha and Kaguya are the same height by the end of the movie.
And Iroha becoming more openly affectionate is completely canon. Lovely.

Once you finished watching the movie (twice) I highly recommend reading the Light Novel. It adds a lot of very important details to the story and is also (even more) explicit about Iroha's romantic feelings. For those who felt like the movie left any kind of ambiguity (it really didn't in my opinion), the novel confirms the yuri as textually as possible without just adding a kiss.

After that it would be great to watch all the music videos on the official channel and read the Guidebook too of course. There is an endless amount of content to dig into.

The greatest yuri movie of all time only deserves the greatest doujins of course.
This one was so elegant and emotionally charged that it barely felt like porn at all. This feels like a natural extension of what the epilogue of the movie showed us.
Weaving both the Yachiyo and Kaguya personas into the sex scene without straying to making a threesome out of it was also very admirable. The author worried about handwavy plots, but they showed an acute understanding of the setting and characters. The only thing that gave me some pause was that Tsukuyomi Iroha was in her stage outfit. I suppose this is what Yaccho finds the hottest? haha

What a wonderful start to an age of cosmic level quality doujins.

Time for an update!
So there have been a lot of good VNs coming out in the last few months and I can't even keep up with them all. I've added about a dozen items to the recommendation list. Here are some highlights:

The Demon Queen's Dire Dilemma

A story about a demon queen conquering a human kingdom with might, but being way too soft-hearted to actually act evil. She takes the princess of the kingdom as her personal maid in a show of dominance, but ends up completely dominated by said maid.
It's an incredibly funny and cute story about romance between demon and human in a way that you may not have seen before.


Vampdoll - The Novel Game

I've brought this VN up before, so I won't say much more than that it's out in Japanese now and that it's very good. The art is great and the romance is steamy to say the least.
The English version is sadly in Steam approval hell... why are you like this Steam? You allow literal loli porn, but even slightly suggestive yuri is too much? Pathetic.


Winter Heat

How fitting that we are now inbetween winter and summer so we can experience both sides of the coin.
It's a cute long-distance relationship love story that brings in lots of cultural differences and actually plays with them in a clever way. A Japanese office lady and Latino-American freelancer is a very unusual combination. The art is cutesy and the VN will certainly give you a refreshingly warm feeling by the end.


Out of the Ocean

If ebi-hime makes a yuri VN I read it. It's one of my rules. Have you played all ebi-hime yuri VNs yet?
Anyway, Out of the Ocean is a Mermaid focused VN, which there is an uncanny amount being released lately.... This one is fully yuri though, which makes it superior. On top of that it plays with polyamory themes, which are still somewhat rare in the yuri VN scene. This VN really is... like a fish out of water.... badum-tss

For those of us who really loved UsoNatsu I want to give a reminder that there has been a new voice drama for a while that takes place in an AU where Kaoru and Mirei-sensei started dating. The first two volumes have been available for a while, but they recently hit their funding goal for the 3rd and 4th volume.
Aside from the Prequel manga and the voice dramas that were released and translated alongside the main game, Parallel Palette is definitely something they poured the most work into since the VN released. Perhaps it's bad of me to say this, but I somewhat prefer this pairing over the canon one.

Here is a 30 minute video of the first track for the voice drama on the official main channel.

I only just realized but apparently the english demo for the yuri VN led by mangaka legend Takano Saku came out last month :0 And the news post has a voice cast list too. Idr if those had been announced already~

The JP demo was also already out and already had voice acting, but yeah the characters who didn't appear in it getting their voice actresses announced is new.
I am rather interested in learning whether the VN will straightforwardly adapt the Light Novel series or if it will do its own condensed narrative. Volume 7 just released recently and is only the penultimate volume, meaning Vampdoll is simply not finished yet.

Takano's dedication to vampire yuri is certainly admirable.

It's as good an opportunity as any, so I will recommend Sisterly Bliss ~Don't Let Mom Find Out~
It just got a Steam release after all these years (the All ages version of course), so might as well.


Sisterly Bliss - Don't Let Mom Find Out - (Tsui Yuri ~Okaa-san ni wa Naisho da yo~)

Synopsis: "Ichika and Futaba are so close it even surprises their friends and family at times. Ichika, the diligent, stubborn older twin, and Futaba, the childish, sociable younger twin, are an inseparable pair.
But there's more to their love for each other than first meets the eye.

Growing up, the two did everything together. No matter where they went, the twins were never apart. And even now that they've grown up, their personalities diverging and leading them to different hobbies, they're still as close as can be. For Ichika, the responsible big sister, looking out for childish, spoiled Futaba has become an everyday occurance, both at home and at school.

But one day, worried that the twins are growing too close, their mother chastises them, explaining that there's a difference between being supportive of each other and being codependent. Regardless of how close they are, she says, they can't stay together forever. With that admonition, the twins' relationship begins to change.

Lurking beneath Ichika's wish to see Futaba happy is a different feeling, one that torments her. A desire that cannot be fulfilled. And as their relationship changes, Futaba grows restless, seeing her wish to always be by Ichika's side drifting further and further away.
What awaits these twins, who harbor feelings stronger than mere sisterly love? What form will their relationship take, and what conclusion will their story reach?"

Duration? 6-8 hours

Gameplay? It's a pure visual novel with a choice system that leads to three different routes. The common route and one for each of the twins. What's unique is that all three routes revolve around the same pairing, Ichika and Futaba. It makes more sense once you reach those parts. If you want the purest and most fulfilling experience, follow the common route.

The CGs are high quality and the scenarios go in vastly different directions despite so few meaningful choices. The sprites are cute, but static and the voice acting adds a lot to the experience. Overall this is a very polished eroge with a lot of heart.


Yuri? Obviously. The incestuous kind at that. If you are averse to twin sisters falling in love, this story is not for you. But many may say twincest is the purest form of yuri haha

Version? There is a Mangagamer release and a new Steam release. The versions are vritually identical, except the Steam version is of course devoid of sexual content. Speaking of which...

Sexual content? It's an eroge with plenty of sexual content. I could not honestly recommend the all ages version as half the game would be cut out. If you don't want any porn, this game is also not for you.
For the Steam version I recommend getting the free 18+ patch from Mangagamer!

Recommended?
Sisterly Bliss is a popular classic yuri VN. The subject matter is not for everyone and the two alternate routes can go very wild and shocking, especially if you played the common route first, but in my opinion it is worth experiencing all this VN has to offer. Getting yuri eroge of this quality without any bells or whistles attached is incredibly rare, so Sisterly Bliss deserves to be acknowledged for being a standout in its niche!

Does anyone on windows 11 have trouble starting Flowers Hiver? i've been playing through the series with a friend again recently, we just finished Printemps. So i wanted to check through my saves in the other 3 games, 2 and 3 work fine but turns out, Hiver crashes immediately on startup.

it seems to be smth about the d3d9.dll bc deleting it makes it start but then the text gets all messed up. And I have no idea how to fix it.

My apologies for being unable to help on the direct issue, but i just tested Hiver on my Windows 10 latest version and it still works just fine. Though for some reason my gallery was reset... A small price to pay compared to being unable to play of course. I also read that Linux users do not have any issues either.
So this is most definitely another Windows 11 foible specifically.

She mentioned how her family rarely gets together these days and it ends with them all celebrating her birthday together. Not to downplay the incredible efforts of Reina, but that was perhaps equally powerful and memorable for Yua. Truly the best birthday ever.

This may well be the best recent new series on this site. Great art, great character writing and nearly no drama to speak of. Just a solid relationship you want to see ever more of as time goes on. And also totally gyaru!
