Is this worth watching? after HIbike euphonium I've been quite wary of watching/reading stuff just with the hopes that there's some yuri.

^Well I'm pretty sure it's more on comedy and uh harem and reverse harem, if you're wanting for actual explicit yuri ending I think It'd be best to just read fanfics..

^ from what i've heard from other people that have watched the show, the first season is really good yuri-wise and then the second season kind of falls apart ; there is going to be a season 3 as far as i'm aware, so perhaps there's hope there but,, yeah. i also hate unfulfilled yuri-bait and i personally really enjoyed season 1 as it's just unambiguously Very gay imo

Does S2 even have good Yuri scenes? I forgot to finish it but I remember it focusing way more on the het side.

Talking about Yuri bait, I really hate how often animes will hint at Yuri but never deliver nor say there won't be any Yuri
There's a lot of Yuri bait in mangas as well but at least in mangas actual Yuri is easier to find.

^Same the open endings and the viwer decide ending when the story is finished are a miss for me. They really need to stop trying to please everyone and just say it.

Season 2 was bad in my opinion. apparently the girls like katarina too but the focus was on the boys the whole time which made me frustrated and quit watching the show altogether. Season 1 is good but season 2 (maybe only the first episode)

the WN ended with a platonic-harem ending (because Katarina was oblivious to everyone's feelings even in the end).
When the story got adapted into anime and manga, the LN was extended and Katarina kinda ended up with the prince (her fiance) I believe. However, and this is just a rumor I read somewhere, the author plans to do all the "routes"? Honestly imo, the series should have been left open-ended so that people can ship whatever the hell they want.

Honestly? I'd rather have a proper conclusion. Harem series have the same problem of being open ended way too often as Yuri bait anime.

^Yeah, that's the thing. Harem as a genre sucks.

Everyone loves her romantically, including the girls, but the series never treats the girls as serious romance options. Not that Bakarina notices ANYONE'S affections, but the guys are still the only ones who get treated as serious possibilities.

The impression I get is that the JP audience is almost entirely straight girls, and the story shifted to accommodate this after the first major arc

As much as I hate Amanchu and Kozue Amano for how the Futaba x Hikari was killed off, at least Amano didn't pretend to care about Yuri fans.
^Oh yeah, that one is nice. I had lost track of it tho.

I despise what happened in Amanchu ... , when Kamen Raider has more gay than that anime it's kinda sad , also just dicovered Kamen Raider , very good show , not afraid to say things , has positive queer vibes :) , i do want a Kamen Raider tamagotchi now lol and as of late , A freaking Gundam , since the new Gundam anime is very good and apparently yuri

I really gotta get back to Kamen Rider, I left Revice unfinished because Vice's voice actor is a racist and Vice himself is unlikeable imo but most other characters were nice, so maybe I'll try enduring him.

there's queer stuff in kamen rider? do you have some recs? the only KR i ever watched was dragon knight, but that was so long ago i don't remember anything from it

^I don't know if that's what they're talking about, but there's two girls in Revice who are popularly paired with each other.
Other than that, in Fuuto PI (a sequel to Kamen Rider W), one of the characters finds out men can be in relationships. lol
And Gaim, which I didn't watch, has a gay man as one of the good guys.

the girls in revice are basically canon; toei tweeted them for Pride
kamen rider w isn't canon but everything in the narrative has philip and shotaro as soulmates of some sort
kamen rider as a whole is just very fruity, especially starting with heisei phase 2

Man I just can't wait for the 3rd season
I'm in hope that it would spur the author of my favourite fanfic to start updating again
Man he/she literally left at the gewd part(of confirmed yuri!!!)

Also Super Sentai, Kamen Rider's sister series, has this moment
The girl in black is a stalker who had a crush on the blue ranger (not pictured) but fell out of love with him because she thought he tried killing her, she then switched targets to the pink ranger (the one holding her chin, I guess that should be obvious) but the pink ranger rejected her while caressing her chin, without any indication that it was because they're both girls. :P
The pink ranger is also somewhat shipped with the green ranger (the girl in the background).
The specific season is Kiramager.
Also, an actress from Kamen Rider Saber (the season preceding Revice) is a fan of a character from Zenkaiger (the season after Kiramager) and they get to meet in a crossover episode (where they become friends and hug).
(I think that image is not from the episode itself)
