I have never heard of this show, is there yuri or a good plot regardless of yuri?

There's plot (although not that good) and there isn't any real yuri, mostly a really close friendship, but I'll be damned if I say I didn't enjoy the show for what it is.

When I watched this I didn't think I needed goggles, but maybe Yuri back in the day was different and this was more "explicit" than many others, say MSGM or the like. Anyway, a great show and super cute, plot is a bit all over the place, but it doesn't matter since I actually enjoyed following the two dorks just wander about.

I think they're totally in love with each other

Was gonna say. I do think it was a little bit more than subtext. If only a tiny bit. But an overall really enjoyable show. Watch it and "ill buy you a drink in hell, amigo."

Subtext? I beg to differ, just because it doesn't have kiss or the characters saying i love you doesn't mean it's merely subtext.

There are moments where Ellis place her head on Nadie in the car
and Nadie makes Ellis lean on her shoulderwhrn they are in the spring(?) while she changed her initial goal from hunting her to protect her instead.

A moment when Ellis start getting annoyed when Nadie keeps talking with a guy and ignore her.

There's a moment when Ellis lean on Nadie in a car asking "do we look like a husband and wife?"

Or when Nadie tries to catch thrown Ellis as they look at each other

and the climax where Nadie has to shot Ellis, i don't remember the exact words said in that moment, and right after that when Nadie feeling sad and sorry(?) And then fall down beside Ellis, helding her hand, like a pair of lover in tragic ending

that's totally love

(sorry if those scenes I mentioned spoils you)

And have you seen some of the official art?

You don't need yuri googles for the anime

Mere friends won't be that romantic, like doing all the scenes I mentioned, because all those closeness combined are too gay

And so I definitely can't recommend this anime to those who wants to watch friendship

Sometimes I wonder if people who are saying subtext were just like those western denial who made up shoujo ai term or too blind.
did they not realize you can convey love even without saying I love you and kiss
not satisfied and want more moment also doesn't mean it's subtext

I mean when it's straight pairing even with no kiss, nobody will deny their love as a mere subtext.

only the manga you may say it's subtext, because it doesn't have romance feel

I totally agree with Maifate. Just like in Canaan, we don't need a kiss to confirm there's a gay connection between the characters.

To be honest, I do agree too with all of the reasons above and while I do see the pairing as Yuri and all of that, I think that most people who'd want to deny any romantic relationship between these two have the valid argument of saying that Nadie looks a bit more like a "guardian" figure or even a parent for due to Ellis childlike personality. But yeah while I do agree that the authors aimed for a more romantic relationship, be it canon or not the show is one hell of an enjoyable ride.

For the romance feelings between Nadie and Ellis, watch again at episode 19, 20, 23 and 25, especially.

And 13, 17, & 18 too.

And to me episode 25 is too intense to be just a guardian figure
