Why is it so prevalent? Is there something about Japanese culture that I'm not understanding here?
Enlighten me /a/

Fanservice for people who are into it.
Unlike media like television or big western films, anime is still very approachable for small indie companies
this means they can afford to cater to niche interests, such as homosexuality, as they have much lower overheads

anime is for kids
kids these days (globally) are really, really gay

what are you comparing it to, making it prevalent? Western culture? Yes, it's less of a tabu in Japanese culture.
Fujos have been a central part of Asian culture for thousands of years, and all men everywhere like fapping to lesbians
Girls can love girls!
Homusexuality is the purest form of love.

Girls should only love girls
Once you've given up on having a real life relationship at all you might as well want to see anime girls loving anime girls. No need to see a man in that.

You have such serious mental defects. Literally every single thread you have been has been shit. You ruin threads out of spite because hate how people hate you. Again, this shipping shit spam was never a thing before you showed up. People don't like you because you directly causes threads to be worse, thus driving away all the scanlators who used to be in Madoka threads.

It sells, especially if it's implied rather than explicit. But if it's explicit then it tends to flop.

Japan likes cute girls. Implied yuri = multiple cute girls.

You can not even back that.
About one in ten anime sells. There has not been 10 explicit yuri anime in the past 2 decades combined (that were not some side-projects without actual budget).
It lets otakus see their waifus in lewd situations while still remaining "pure", since no men where involved.
