maybe your partner has shit taste. There is a lot of yuri, and not all are the same.its like
What's the one they're reading now?
yuri is a very very wide netyea but i prolly wont like it and i wanna kno why
you can find a yuri story in every single genre
i think something about forced wholesomeness makes me uneasyWhat made it feel like forced wholesomeness in the manga you were reading?
like manga specifically. idk any animes. i think something about forced wholesomeness makes me uneasy
my partners reading another one so i checked it out and was immediately like oh i hate this
unlike the last one I will not be reading this one tho
im always so fascinated by the ways in which i differ from the masses
Did you ever try Yuri that wasn't just wholesome slice of life?no but that sounds better already. can u rec some?
how did it ruin legend of korraLoK is lesbian, not yuri.
LoK is lesbian, not yuri.actually alot of praminant yuri works are written by lesbians for lesbians
Modern yuri is by men, for men. A relevant difference between the two.
try gundam witch from mercuryi dont like mechs unfortunately
Cause it ruined Legend of Korra, RWBY etcidk what rwby but korrasami didnt ruin korra. the love triangle and the shitty writing in s2 and 4 ruined korra
actually alot of praminant yuri works are written by lesbians for lesbiansThe existence of a counterexample doesn't change the point, it's more about the statistics in this scenario. Hence why you can go into the anime topic and find largely just written by men, for men stuffs: that's the demographic that makes up the lion's share of the genre.
a good example is im in love with the villianess

got a source for thatSure.
cus most yuri is shojo which targets young girls
https://www.animefeminist.com/yuri-is-for-everyone-an-analysis-of-yuri-demographics-and-readership/did you even read this it lists multiple yuri works written by lesbians
So, statistically speaking, yuri is a genre made by men and is being consumed by men. If we are to assume that under capitalism the consumer is the target: yuri manga is by men, for men.Statistics are meaningless
You, uh, realize that LoK is also by guys for guys too right?both avatar shows are for everyone
links to multiple polls showing lesbians are the largest consumersThe most lopsided polling, as in the only poll with a male:female ratio that wasn't almost 1:1, was the Comic Yuri Hime polling. Which explicitly favored men by a notable margin:

So yes, there are plenty of minor publishers who found a 51:49 split, or something similar, finding that their audience had an edge towards women, the one with the most popularity has a notable shift otherwise. This in spite of being the source of things like I'm in Love with the Villainess, The Summer you were there, etc.
Similarly, the act of having the largest demographic not be the one that you aren't in doesn't mean that you aren't allowed to consume. While I would agree that you can make the argument that it's "for everyone" as opposed to "for women/men", I feel that the distinction largely isn't relevant as the entire point of my premise is that the overwhelmingly large amount of yuri anime being produced is explicitly the things that fall into the "are popular with guys who buy figs" crowd far more than they are in the "are popular with any other crowd" line up.
scroll down alittl ebit moreYes. One which was 52:46 and the other was 47:44, or two that are *extremely* to a 1:1.
it cites 2 different polls showing different results
Yes. Of 52:46 and and 47:44, or two that are *extremely* to a 1:1.one little problem yuri hime sales data are exclusively from japan
Hence why I said that there are two ways to read this: either you go by who is buying the manga and it has a male bias, or you go by the polling and it has an even distribution with no real bias. Like, that's the point: the only significant bias ever shown has been male directed.
one little problem yuri hime sales data are exclusively from japan
and again ya know many yuri works are written by woman
1. I'm only talking about Japan.
2. I'm not denying that there aren't ones that are. I'm just pointing out the difference between Revolutionary Girl Utena and Jellyfish Can't Swim in the Night, and why the former has a completely different vibe and why there is a relevant distinction to be made.
1. I'm only talking about Japan.utena is actually a very bad example to use

utena is actually a very bad example to useFair. That said, I started with modern works back in post 28: https://anichart.net/Spring-2024
as the anime very much was handled by a man the manga creator originally did NOT want utena and anthy to be a couple
and lets try to stick with modern works as that was what i was talking about to start with
Fair. That said, I started with modern works back in post 28: https://anichart.net/Spring-2024that list is not yuri its just listing currently running anime
There is plenty of yuri currently being run, but unless I missed something it's all done by guys. Which was the entire point, really, as I only brought up manga because you can at least get gender statistics: this is a topic primarily focused on animated stuffs (in my eyes), the existence of manga is mostly just a tangential thing as you can usually get a reasonable 1:1 demographics between the two.
that list is not yuri its just listing currently running animeCorrect. There is no list of just yuri that are currently running. Hence why I'm posting a list of anime currently running and saying that there are currently no yuri that are made by women running, despite there being several yuri running, as an example to show that yuri shows are very often, to the point of it being pretty overwhelming, made by guys.

yes there is a yuri anime made by a woman runningDang it, caught me forgetting to put the customary "that I recognize." >.>
whisper me a love song its manga was made by a woman
Dang it, caught me forgetting to put the customary "that I recognize." >.>what currently running yuri anime are done by a guy
So yes, it's something like 5 done by guys, one done by a gal, and one I'm not certain of (the direction roles are almost all guys, but I'm not sure of the author). You are correct, it's not exclusively guys making literally all of them.
what currently running yuri anime are done by a guyJellyfish Can't Swim - Yuki Yaku
Jellyfish Can't Swim - Yuki Yaku
Train to the End of the World - Tsutomu Mizushima (later turned into a manga by someone who I don't know)
Girls Band Cry - Jukki Hanada
Laid-back camp - Afro
no but that sounds better already. can u rec some?
i hate when the point is "YuRi". if theres just incidentsl lesbian romance and that isnt the entire premise, id have way better chance of liking it
