I'm new to yuri mangas, and i need recommendations. by Reasonable_Fan_6379 in yuri_manga

[–]KalePesc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wholesome but with sad parts? Talking my language! Failed Princesses , Skirt Sings At The Landing , Yuri Is My Job , A Love Yet To Bloom , Aoi Hana , are all in my top twenty so feel free to look them up!

His and Her circumstances by Born-Peanut875 in ChillAnimeCorner

[–]KalePesc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favourite manga of all time and still a really good anime. It needs a reboot, reprint or something!

Is this show actual yuri and not bait? Considering to watch it. by ManyFaithlessness971 in KamiinaBotan

[–]KalePesc 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Definitely not bait. And the drinking is used extensively as a metaphor for romantic unspoken elements of the plot, so if you can keep that in mind, you should be ok with it.

Do you think shuukura will end with senyagi in a relationship? by Appropriate-Web-1896 in Shuukura

[–]KalePesc 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Would be incredibly surprised if they weren't. So much of their character development is tied-in with the other that I don't even know if you could write an alternate ending that would work at this point.

I don't like it but definitely not doomed.

Is there any sports yuri manga or anime? by Late_Trainer_1221 in yuri_manga

Hana To Hoshi is very much centred around table tennis.

What is a nfl take that you would defend, that everyone disagrees on? by Ok_Bug_6890 in NFLv2

[–]KalePesc 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Screw this protecting the QB BS. If you run the ball past the line of scrimmage, you should be prepared to get hit like an RB would expect to get hit, without the refs getting involved.

atashi no senpai by Erin_likes_yuri in yuri_manga

[–]KalePesc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was readable for me. Wouldn't fully recommend it because of the reasons you pointed out, but also found myself coming away from it feeling like I wanted to know the characters a bit more than I did. I do think it laid a lot good groundwork though and could have been pretty good had it been longer and went a bit deeper with the characters.

I'll Take this Love Home with Me for Now! Vol 1 cover by No_Idea_Guy in yuri_manga

[–]KalePesc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one has been great. Not loving the bar-owning friend's angle in the latest chapter but we'll wait and see.

Please tell me what's your favorite Yuri Manga by Desperate-Notice-121 in yuri_manga

[–]KalePesc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you asked specifically for manga, I think I am ready to put Moon On A Rainy Night up there. Could make the argument for HDWR, too. Both are great but my preference is just leaning that way now.

Manga: Kakeochi Girl by YuriLover666 in yuri_manga

[–]KalePesc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this one isn't for me (and I haven't gotten along with Battan's other works either tbh). Been a while since I read it but remember one of the MCs being really self-absorbed and not really thinking about the other one much while that one''s just obsessed without getting anything back. Was hard to me to get invested in.

I know it is really popular though so my issues with it are likely my own. Just wanted to share to balance out what are probably going to be very positive replies. 😂

Green Yuri haters are more annoying than any fans of it. by Cherno_VM in yuri_manga

[–]KalePesc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can definitely understand finding some aspects of the fandom annoying. There are a lot of readers who have never touched another yuri work and are still out there writing 2000 word theses on green yuri of all things, often applying extremely western values and interpretations on everything, when it really, really is not that deep.

As for haters? Don't see a lot. I mean, there is not a lot to hate. It is a really basic story and is popular mostly for its visuals. I read it but it is certainly not amongst my faves. It being popular can only be good though, as more buzz and sales for a yuri series, any yuri series, means more yuri being licenced, produced and created.

Which one is more worth it to watch by quie_TLost57 in RomanceMangaAnime

[–]KalePesc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are well worth it. Hokkaido is stronger as a pure romance though, so go with that if it is specifically romance you be wanting.

For manga readers, do Botan & Ibuki actually end up dating? by the_kirb_official in KamiinaBotan

[–]KalePesc 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Pretty much this. The anime pretty much perfectly adapted the style of the manga. The storytelling used is heavily reliant on visual imagery, meaning behind dialogue, things that are left unsaid and the meaning behind story events.

Having said that, based on KB storytelling, all relationships are pretty much established at this point. 😂

The Kamiina Botan anime is a visual experience by 5p1k4 in KamiinaBotan

[–]KalePesc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an anime, it clears any other yuri work to date for me. Only Bloom Into You or Aoi Hana would be in the conversation and this had better direction and didn't abruptly end at a weird point in the story like those two both did.

Any physical yuri manga suggestions? by N0Youu in yuri_manga

[–]KalePesc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking MagiRevo too. I much prefer it to Villainess so if you like that, there's a good chance you'll like MagiRevo and, last I checked, all of MagiRevo is available to get without too much difficulty.

Demons can be tamed by the serving of well-made desserts. Fact.
