It only ended the way it did because the author's a pussy.

>>1971528
More like it was a gag manga that I don't think was ever meant to have any real romantic sideplot.

Don't have an image for it, but that one Inari manga was different though. As I recall the yuri in that one was pretty much one-sided and when the other side found out it went down in flames. I can only hope the brother and the goddess went nowhere as well. Never finished because the way it ended the yuri (in what was essentially a lighthearted romcom) was so cruel.

Inari Konkon Koi Iroha. It's even worse than what you remember. At latter chapters author went with Sumizome wasn't actually in love so best friends forever end.

Talk about adding insult to injury.

>>1971791
I confirm. Their relationship stopped getting attention in favor of the het ones. In fact, I think there was a scene where the short haired one was surprised the long haired one didn't give her any Valentine's day chocolate because "these aren't my true feelings" or something. And that was basically the last time we see those two.

So you think Kanbaru is yuri related in the end?
Didn't she want Araragi-sempai like all other girls in it after her initial crush over Hitagi?

If anything more yuri related thing is Hitagi and Cat bath scene.

>>1973785
She's pretty gay in Hana, isn't she?

>>1971486
Hitagi/Tsubasa is superior, though. Hitagi doesn't deserve Kanbaru, anyway.

>>1973785
Kanbaru is actually bi, not a lesbian, but all of her serious feelings shown have been for girls. It's mostly just teasing with Araragi while also respecting him deeply.

Literally the best way to handle yuri in anime. Making entire yuri anime with how frustratingly narrow their range of setting and plot is limits the appeal and audience too much. It's simply much better kept to manga where there's much more freedom to experiment.

Don't do the kind of irritatingly weak subtext shit too many anime do, go as far as frequent enough side characters straight up talking about living together and even feeding each other. That's how you do subtext for an undeniably canon relationship. Make it as explicit as possible while not showing them outright getting lewd. It leaves zero doubt for fans who care enough about them while not making it too important that the author starts getting pressured by the editor.

I'll demonstrate exactly how this works right now: if the girls were apart of the main cast you'd see on the very front cover, depending on how the fans receive them it would fucking unfortunately be considered in best interests to have them fall for the faggot MC just for the sake of more pandering and thus more sales. However, if those girls were only as relevant as Yuzu and Kaede in Sakura Trick's anime for example, they're safe. Their existence is merely a nice addition to the characters and while they can take part in some crazy ass supernatural plot that happens, they're not too major for anyone to really care about their obvious, but not explictly stated relationship because they're simply not that important. Waifufags will literally be too busy focusing on the main female characters for these 2 in particular to be any issue at all.

Or hell, just start rehashing Haruka and Michiru's presence as shamelessly as Pokemon does. The point is if you're going to make lesbians in an average anime, don't make them too important as characters for their own good. This has nothing to do with "the closet". Popularity is truly a double edged sword for any work and has far too much impact on it.

Cute, anon. I know you were joking, but ORAS actually does have 2 well known NPCs in one of its optionally explored locations.

>>1974920
When I attacked anime yuri subtext, it was because of how it boils down to very weak support that ultimately results in absolutely nothing.

>implying I contradicted myself
I don't think you see the difference between the shitty beaten to death bait you see in every other anime and clear romantic involvement, not just interest or slight hinting that goes absolutely nowhere. I specifically called the kind I attacked weak and the usual shit isn't what you could even call close to all but explicitly stated like what I can think of.

>>1974920
>>1974977
I'm not trying to be an asshole, but you really just irritated me by insinuating what I thought of was no different when it was clear romantic involvement and a non platonic relationship instead of shitty headcanon materal like some mildly suggestive dialogue, skinship and promotion.

>>1974977
No, I'm just legitimately confused by your phrasing.

>>1975033
I specifically said irritatingly weak subtext. Meaning I was pointing out that it lacked any strength at hinting a couple.

Different anon, but it is shit. It's just loldeeplolshaft with an especially insufferable faggot as the MC.

>>1975037
Haruka and Michiru and Pokemon phrasing.

>>1975060
I was taking a shot at mainline Pokemon. Repeating the similar amount of presence as one of the most well known yuri couples in a well known franchise as much as GameFreak repeats the same formula.

>>1974890
>Literally the best way to handle yuri in anime

For /a/nons like you that can't handle yuri.

Literally everything in your post is retarded, but then you claim that a non-yuri coupling that goes nowhere and has both lust for the male MC is "the best way to handle yuri in anime", so what could we expect?

>>1975082
>putting words in my mouth
>literally everything in your post is retarded
>outright projecting
Bullshit. Explain or it's just you not liking what I posted.

>non yuri coupling that has lust for the MC
Now you're really making shit up. You had to skim through it to try and force that nonsensical claim. My post was entirely about preventing that and ensuring an actual enduring canon yuri relationship exists without any issues from fans or the editor.

>>1975082
No, he is saying that the best way to handle yuri couples is to make them side-characters without too much importance but that regularly show up, to protect them from the fanbase

Or at least that's what i understood, basically, he's saying to make them characters that are only in the background so that only yuri fans will care about them, that way they won't need to lust for the MC because the waifufags won't care about them

>>1975091
I don't like this being necessary either in order to avoid forced hetero pairings, but I don't see things changing anytime soon. I've already said not to treat it as something that needs to be hidden, but as something that is JUST clearly there.

Thanks for carefully paying attention. That was better than I could have worded it with that wall of text, but I needed it to show my reasoning behind all of that.

>>1975093
I think that your reasoning is too naive, to be honest. And really, when is the last time that a het/haremshit show has a yuri pair that's not on par with or less than the subtext shows that you dislike so much?

Still the best couple in a non-yuri anime.

Canon, happy together, small amount of drama that gets resolved quickly, no bullshit excuses needed for an onscreen kiss, genuinely friends with the rest of the characters, has own subplot in s2, decent amount of screen time especially in s2, future plot hook (Malga's dad) planted, actively participates and relied on by others in combat, and even started a shitty meme within the show.

I'll be damn happy if even one 2016 show can deliver a couple like these two.

>>1975093
Honestly, i don't entirely agree with you

I would like to just get good yuri anime, i mean, enjoyed KnM, Simoun, Blue Drop and AnR so whatever, even if we get little anime for years and years, it still better than having to endure harem-shit, beta MC faggot and other bullshit just to get a very small dose of yuri

But, if the idea is to get yuri into mainstream anime, then yeah, that's the best way to handle it

I think people just had a problem with the "not explicitly stated relationship", i mean, while having a clear but not explicit yuri relationship is better than just subtext, we still won't get too much out of it considering how there would be haremshit, other things most of us dislike and that they wouldn't show up too much and be too affectionate, it's not that much better than subtext

>>1975107

Let's be fair, most of the characters in Horizon could probably be the star of their own show given the chance.

>>1975107
Yep, it's actually quite impressive. The two things that stood out to me the most is that they aren't treated differently by any of the others, and that their plot arc isn't about them getting together. They're a couple throughout the show and everyone is OK with that.

>>1975116
True but none of the archetypes that the other characters represent or are loosely affiliated with carry as much stigma as the predecessors of the "yuri couple"

It's amazing that Horizon basically had two lesbians who were just treated like normal people. It's such a simple concept but goddamn it is so rare and so amazing to witness in action.

>>1975130

You're right. The only other similar case I can think of at the moment is Moretsu Pirates. It really is rare.

>>1975154
>Koi Koi Seven
I think I remember watching some of that and it was fucking terrible.

>>1975142
There's Kanamemo and Psycho Pass. I'd even name Sekirei but I think they got converted in the manga.

>>1975740
I don't recall either of that Sekirei pair going for someone else. Then again, they're not in the spotlight 98% of the time, but the anime includes when they met, so that's really nice.

>>1975740
Kanamemo definitely. Psycho Pass sort of counts I guess, Shion and Yayoi have smaller parts though technically Yayoi did get her own episode, even though it felt completely isolated and unrelated to the rest of the season's plot

>>1975108

>>1983477
>>1976083
They kiss at the climax of Mari's arc around 16 or so. It's not a friend kiss.

samumenco is one of those shows where the straight couple is the least obvious

I wouldn't consider it to be forgotten because at least /a/ has threads about it quite often. I've really enjoyed Gash Bell but haven't seen much yuri in it.

This on the other hand had a canon yuri couple and is dead except for that meme pic. I'm thinking about playing the game in hopes for more yuri. To be honest I watched it so long ago I couldn't even remember if pic related is the couple or it was someone else.

>>1993677
But Touka was a boy, right? That is, the Touka we see for most of the series. Like, he was a magical replacement for the original Touka, who was a girl that died. I think, not sure. That series was so weird to begin with and had that fancy non-chronological airing order and it's been years since I've watched it so I'm not sure of anything.

There were a bunch of lesbians in it though, that I do remember. There was the green haired girl who had a crush on the short red haired girl who had a crush on the girl who had a crush on Touka. There was a girl with huge tits also had a crush on the short red haired girl and stalked her for one episode. Hazuki and Lilith from YamiBou appeared in one episode. And there were the two in this screenshot that I don't really remember. And even more, I think.

Touka Gettan is a difficult case. On one hand it had multiple girl-on-girl scenes but it wasn't a genuine yuri most of the time. The only ones with actual relationship were two goddesses with a 1000-year love story, and I think two flute girls at the academy.

On a general TG was creepy as all hell though.

Same company made Darkness, the Hat, and the Travelers of the Books which had more yuri and if I recall correctly was less creepy. The ending was kinda disappointing in my opinion.

>>1994085
Too bad Yamibou game certainly doesn't have more yuri given that MC is a hat who can appear male in some scenes and female in other.

>>1973817
I always got the impression that she was very gay, just liked screwing with MC.

>>1975050

I thought it was funny. Not much of a point beyond that, but worth watching and enjoying on that one level.

>>1994203
nay, if /u/ wanted something funny, it's better to just watch a comedy series than a haremshit.

Coincidentally I was just re-watching my dvds of Kaleido Star (haven't watched them in many years) and had forgot how much subtext there was (seems its been so long that I also forgot whole episodes, and some of the characters in the second half).
