Spring 2016 Draft

>also Sailor Moon Crystal

I imagine it will still have the same shitty, god awful 3D crap?

>>1983977
>fujos get an actual shounen-ai anime with other fujobait shit.
>not even one explicit yuri anime.
i give up.

>>1984245
Take heart, Nee-san. Our day will come, I'm sure of it

>>1984245
>still believing fujos are the enemy

Fanboise will be fanbois.

I don't know. Adding to the shows mentioned by OP, I personally found Bakuon!!, Hai-Fury, Sansha Sanyou and Unhappy quite interesting or /u relevant as well.

>>1983977
We have lesbian catgirl robots, winter's not bad. Spring on the other hand is looking so-so. Pan de Peace manga is a bit eh, holding some hope for the Bahamut spin-off, but it seems to be a short.

>>1984250
Oh right, those are all airing this Spring, ok, it's looking pretty good actually.

When is New Game airing?

I need my Kirara-ke.

>Shingeki no Bahamut: Manaria Friends
>TV Short
...

Spring is gonna be so boring. This winter /u/ at least had Pandora...

>>1984370
Summer should be good, or I fucking hope so.

We'll get better idea this March at the AnimeJapan festival

Enough with the self-pity, onee-sama.

Fujos are nowhere near to getting close to our our market

Summer could have Magical Girl Raising Project and Qualidea Project.

Both were announced last year. Qualidea has been getting a fair consistent string of minor updates and announcements, with what is presumably a fully voiced PV at the upcoming AnimeJapan project and probably airing date announcement too.

Cant find much about the Magical Girl Raising series besides the fact that it is allegedly a battle royal-esque story.

>>1991503
Perfect

>>1991500
Aren't those /y/ series heavy with sex?

I get how you made that list but
>Mikagura

>>1991511
Mikagura featured a raging lesbian
Same reason why I added No.6 inspite of the fact that the white boy remained loyal to his GF

>>1991500
14 yuri series in 6 years. There's just something wrong with that.
I mean, I bet ten bucks that there were more than 14 het romance series or 14 harems in one year. Hell, in one SEASON.

"Balance" is a thing they seem to not get.

>>1991511
What's wrong with Mikagura? It sucked but it was very much a /u/ series, arguably more /u/ than most others on that list.

Looking at that list though, it's still pretty depressing. Way too much cutsey subtext stuff. When will we get another Golden Age of Yuri like we did in 2003-2005

>>1991515
Make that 15. I forgot to add Valkyrie Drive. 16 if you add Rebellion...which is a movie

>>1991500
>>1991517
I don't know how you nitwits forgot Yuri Kuma. God.

>>1991516
Nothing really came from Eruna's /u/ traits and she got friendship ends with the other two girls. It was like seeing subtext with one character. No one else was a lesbian and Otone really just looked lonely.

I know at least Love Stage, Togainu, and Dramatical Murder had unambiguous desire from all sides.

>>1991522
Damn, I knew I missed another one

>>1991523
It was friendship end but Eruna's character was never in doubt. Can't really say the same for most of the other on that list.

I'm not saying it was amazing or satsifying in any way though. Tons of wasted potential.

>Cross Ange

>>1991525
That's fair. Just saying that I wouldn't chose it to watch for the yuri. I mean, I did, but I didn't enjoy anything else that was the main focus, except for that one fight scene.

>>1991527
I was waiting for this. It begins.

>>1991527
Yeah, I know, but it still had legit unambiguous yuri. One of the lesbian couples even survived and ended up together!

Speaking of Cross Ange, the anime is getting a dub. Maybe there will be some hope of having the game getting the same treatment, and released on the West.

>>1991535
Are you shitting me? Fucking hell.

>>1991535
No no, no. That'll kill any sentiment towards it. The game is the best way to go.

>>1991542
What sentiment is there currently?
Also does the game have yuri route?

>>1991543
>all of them
The mc is female

>>1991543
The game is basically what the anime should have been. Fukuda's muff-diving magical ninja stays out of the way, the yuri is real, pretty much what everyone expected from the anime.

>>1991500
Don't forget Yuyushiki.

>>1991500
I won't disagree about KinMoza being yuri. But if you'll consider things that are still subtext (even if it's strong subtext), you should do the same for yaoi. But there's only pure yaoi series there.

Now, I can't help with that since I usually avoid shows with a big male cast, but even then I know about at least one yaoi subtext (or even text, actually) show that's not here. Cuticle Detective Inaba.

There's probably more. As I said, I don't usually watch them.
So, it's pretty obscure, but so is Sabagebu.
I'm not saying that you're wrong and that yaoi is more popular than yuri, but a list like this made here usually won't be accurate. You're likely to remember obscure yuri shows, but forget (or not even know about) yaoi obscure shows, after all.

As well as not knowing what shows actually have yaoi subtext or not, unless you're actually watching them.

>>1991907
Yaoi IS more popular than yuri, m8. Anyone who thinks otherwise is either new to yuri or extremely deluded.

>>1991913
Yeah, I know that. I'm just saying that's not why I'm posting this, though.

>>1991913
If CGDCT with minimal or no male presence counts as yuri then no, yaoi is not more popular than yuri.

If you don't consider those yuri, then yes, yaoi is more popular and has a fanbase with more purchasing power

>>1991554
>the yuri is real,

It is too in the anime.

>>1991928
Kind of hard to tell, what with Rito 2.0 taking over the series.

>>1991932
>Kind of hard to tell

Only if you are blind.

>>1991943
For the side couple it wasn't difficult but I really couldn't tell if they were just using Hilda to pander or for fanservice.

>>1992011
Hilda was simply gay but did not win the MC bowl.

>>1991918
Yaoi also has their male equivalent of CGDCT, which are shit like the swimming anime, and that one seems very popular.

>>1992052
You are most likely thinking about Free. Also that series about magical boys (!) that's also shit.

Fun fact: when KyoAni animated the LN about swimming dudes called "High Speed", they renamed the series to "Free", which killed the CGDCT 4koma series also called "Free!" and any chances that had of being animated.

>>1991907
KinMoza was already confirmed as yuri and was tagged as one in Wikipedia
So goes for Akuma no Riddle

And there's nothing subtext about the rape ending in Sabagebu

I made the list as fair as possible. If ever, I was still holding back as Rebellion made the yuri confirmed.

>>1991918
If I consider CGDCT as yuri, then the list will have Gochiusa, K-on, Love Live, and Touhou. At that point, not even harem will stand a chance
Don't lie to yourself, Onee-sama. It's an unhealthy habit

>>1991913
The sales say otherwise.
Times have changed, onee-san.

Of all the years of existence, yaoi had only 2 titles that sold more than 5K but yuri is backed with classics like Utena, Mai-franchise, and Yuru Yuri.

In today's time, saying that yaoi is popular is no different from saying that PETA and Westboro are popular. They are more active, yes, but not growing

>>1992077
>Utena
>Mai
>YY

Not sure how you managed to fit these three into the same sentence

>>1992089
>anime about yuri
How the fuck do you think?

>>1992077
>The sales say otherwise.
There's something like 20 yaoi magazines and 2 yuri magazines currently in publication.

>>1992092
Utena is yuri now? YY is considered classic?

>>1992094
Correction: Yuri have 4 magazines. One closed down

Yaoi have 10. 3 of which closed down recently. None of which gathered the same popularity as Yuri Hime

Your point?

>>1992099
Oh wait, no.
Yaoi had 5 closed publications

>>1992096
Yes and yes.

Talking About Yaoi here, I don't like.

>>1992099
>4 magazines
Which are those?
Yuri Hime, Mebae, Ladies & Girls Love, Aya Yuri
Last two are adult, and based on what has been scanned, I think Mebae is actually intended for mature audiences. So only one yuri publication for general audience.

>>1992122
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_manga_magazines
Ctrl+F "yuri"
But thanks to your Ladies & Girls Love, Aya Yuri, and Mebae which were not listed, it's now 7 magazines.

>>1992124
Why even count magazines that no longer exist? Yuri Hime proper is the only relevant thing in that link.

>>1992129
I just felt like it.

>>1992094
Manga's are cheap as hell to create, man. A publication can churn out as much porn as they could without losing much profits.
The fact that Yuri Hime gets so many adaptations converted into anime, which costs millions, should tell you something.

>>1992122
L Ladies & Girls Love is a continuation of Aya Yuri

>>1992133
>yuri hime
>many anime adaptions

What?

>>1992133
The only thing getting an adaptation from Yuri Hime is YuruYuri, which appeals to CGDCT fans in general, not just yuri fans.

Besides, BL also had some popular adaptations. Junjo Romantica was quite popular if I'm not mistaken. I also remember Gravitation back when yuri didn't even exist as a genre yet.

>>1992144
Inugami to Nekoyama
Yuru Yuri
Simoun

Upcoming
>Citrus
>NTRtrap

>>1992146
Actually, Junjou Romantica was the ONLY popular BL ever created. It was the only BL ever to break 5K until Sekai Ichii came along in 2012

Meanwhile, yuri was already churching buckets of gold with Mai franchise and Marimite

>>1992147

NTR getting an anime would be so fucking funny.

>>1992147
>Meanwhile, yuri was already churching buckets of gold with Mai franchise and Marimite
That's stupid comparison. Junjo Romatica was actually BL. Mai Hime and Mirimite aren't really yuri. They just have some subtext.

>>1992147
>that spoiler
Hmm, last I heard Ichijinsha was only looking for a studio to produce animation, and people started jumping to conclusions.

>subtext

>>1992149
Yeah, just what we need. More drama, shipping wars and crossboard wars.

>>1992147
The Simoun anime wasn't adapted from the manga. That was promotion for the anime.

"Many" being 2 reminds me of the Discworld troll counting system (1, 2, 3, many).

>>1992157
It would be funny as hell.

And unlike Hibikek, it will at least have some actual yuri content.

>>1992156
Mai-HiME was 100% het until episode 23 of 26. MariMite's only yuri story is Sei's during the first season, the rest is subtext.

>>1992158
Anything above 2 is many. Especially when you are comparing it to a magazine that never had an anime adaptation. Let alone one that became as successful as Yuru Yuri

>>1992160
Sure and that does not change the fact that it is a yuri show. In fact, judging by how yuri Otome went out, I would like to believe that it WAS marketed more as a yuri franchise than het

>>1992115
This

>>1992163
>does not change the fact that it is a yuri show.
It's a show with some yuri. It's not the same as being a yuri show. For example, Horizon has the lesbian witches. That's awesome, but it doesn't mean Horizon is a yuri show, since most characters are het, including the main couple.

>>1992176

>>1992174
Korra/Asami are stated by the creators to be canon but the Legend of Korra is not a yuri show. Same goes for Mai Hime and Horizon.

Otome on the other hand is way different since there is a significant emphasis put on female/female relationships.

Also Natsuki was a main character in Hime but Shizuru most definitely was not. Neither them can be considered main characters in Otome btw.

Come on, now. Just because she became related only on the second half does not mean that is not related at all.
Otherwise, Chris of Symphogear, or Fate of Nanoha, won't be considered as main characters in their respective seasons

>>1992183
Fate appeared in what, episode 4? And became the focus from there.

Shizuru was a minor side character all the way until she showed up and wrecked Nao, and she was not ultimately not the protagonist (Mai) 's end goal, more like a side boss.

>>1992191
Yes, just like Homura who became the focus only on ep 10
Even Kyouko who became related only for Sayaka is still considered an MC. Why discriminate on Shizuru?

>>1992062
Yes, I was talking about Free. Animes like that one are the yaoi version of CGDCT. I wonder if it would be as popular as it is if it wasn't made by KyoAni.

What is that CGDCT 4 koma you are talking about? Any link about it? (Being optimist, they could change its title to something else in the anime version).

>>1992219
http://dynasty-scans.com/series/free

>>1992202
Because Hime has such a large cast, Mai, Mikoto and Natsuki are quite clearly the main female characters. Shizuru is a significant minor character, but she's not an MC. She's not even an MC in Otome, and you'd think the entire show was about Shiznat, given the fandom.

>>1992224
They are the protagonists AND the MC.

Mai Hime is just like Love Live where in the show is seen in the eyes of merely 3 characters but all 9 are considered as MCs. So goes for Sailor Moon

>>1992227
Haven't seen either of those, but Mai Hime is pretty clearly *Mai's* story, and the other Himes just feature in telling it. It's not an ensemble show in the same way I imagine LL is at least.

Yaoi is disgusting

>>1992202

Homura was a consistent presence throughout the show and was revealed to be the origin of how everything began.

Shizuru's biggest contribution before shit hit the fan was lending her laptop to Natsuki

>>1992243
Sure and Kyouko, Sayaka, and Nagisa are all characters who can be removed from the show without any significant change happening. But they are still considered as MCs.
Why can't you say the same towards Shizuru?

>>1992248

How is Sayaka even part of this conversation. She was also there from the start and played a major role in the protagonist's development.

Shizuru was nonexistent for like twenty episodes. I can make a strong case of her being less relevant in her show than then the Witches of Horizon in theirs, given the relative cast sizes.

The main characters of Hime were Mai, Natuski, Mikoto and MAYBE Whatshisface Mai's boyfriend. You'd have a hard time selling me the idea that Shizuru was even more relevant than Midori.

>>1992255
Actually, Uro admitted that Sayaka's entire existence was to be bullied for her childish fantasies. But anyway...

My point is simple: Shizuru existed in the same way as the characters whose ideal is to protect the ones she love even if it meant being considered as a villain...like Homura and the rapist in Kannazuki no Miko. It is hypocritical to say that she is not an MC when she made more impact to the plot in her 3 episode existence than Mai's entire 24 episode run.

>>1992259
The intent of Sayaka's character and her actual relevance in the show are completely different things. I don't even like Sayaka all that much, but denying her importance to the story and influence on Madoka herself is complete crazytalk.

Also Shizuru's role in the story is not comparable to Chikane's in any way. Chikane was a POV character from episode one, it's absolutely comical to compare the two of them in terms of plot relevance.

I honestly dont even know why this is worth arguing. Shizuru was not a main character in Hime and her role as Natsuki's MIP in the final arc didn't suddenly elevate her into one.

This doesn't make her any less of an icon on /u/. Shizuru did her role exceptionally well as evidenced by her popularity both in nipland and here. That's an incredibly feat for a female character to achieve despite having a manface.

>>1992259
>Shizuru made more impact than Mai
Your goggles are impeding your ability to actually watch the plot.

>>1992293
Come on now, Sayaka and Kyouko can easily be removed from the show and Madoka and Homura will still attain the same ending.
You can't say the same thing to Shizuru who was the reason for breaking Nao, healing Natsuki, and revealing the true nature of their magical world.

Please do not confuse the term Protagonist with Main Characters.

>>1992301
Ehhh, but no Mai-Hime fan ever remembers anything in the show other than Shizuru's psycho love.

>>1992303
I was a MaiMikoto shipper desu.

>>1992303
Oh please, as if Shizuru and Nao can't both be removed with minimal changes, especially given the larger cast size compared to Madoka. Natsuki would simply get turned into a pillar and nothing else matters as Mai goes to fight the final battle.

Sayaka's removal would require significant changes to Madoka's development as Mami would essentially have to fill two roles before getting chomped.

Being honest about Manface's role won't diminish your clearly new found obsession with her. Try it.

She is not a disposable character like Nagisa and Kyouka

>>1992311

Thankfully, your limited imagination does not dictate what qualifies as a main character. In fact, it has absolutely nothing to do with it.

Just be glad Shizuru is who she is.

No need to be so bitter now.

Main characters are defined by their impact to the plot and audience. Just because they appeared late does not mean they are not.

>>1992316
She didn't just appear late. She appeared late, didn't interact a whole lot with most characters, and only contributed to the deuteragonist's development while undergoing very minimal growth herself.

She was a supporting character. A flat, albeit awesome, supporting character.

Just like Sayaka, Kyouko, Nagisa, Arf, and Zalifa whom, despite having a bare minimum interaction with the protagonists, are still classified as MCs

Please stop discriminating Shizuru

Damn, I run out of ShizNat pics

>>1992328
You posted what, six pictures and you're out?

Sayaka is a main character because she had signficant parts of the narrative dedicated to just her circumstance, she impacted the protagonists of the story, and offered viewers a perspective we wouldnt have been able to see from other characters. Kyouko is arguable, I don't particularly feel like she was that strong of a presence but I wouldn't fight over it either if someone wants to label her a main character.

Shizuru pretty much revolved around Natsuki only and we didnt even see her all that much even during the final arc. Arf and Zafira are supporting characters as well, nobody in their right mind thinks they're main characters.

>>1992328
Madoka has such a small cast and lean plot in the first place that it's difficult not to be a MC as long as you're a magical girl. Haven't seen Nanoha. Shizuru is basically a lesbian plot device. That's hardly discrimination. Bring it up with Sunrise for their tokenism.

>>1992336
>>1992339
(Yeah. I just redug my folders.)

Shizuru's love for Natsuki IS her character arc. She may not have impacted the protagonist but she impacted the whole Mai universe and became one of the most popular characters ever made by Sunrise.

If MaiHime was aired as 2 different seasons, or an extra movie, we won't even have this argument.
Instead, she will be treated with the same respect as Mari of Eva

>>1992345
>if this was a different show Shizuru would be a MC
But it wasn't, and she isn't.

They didn't even make her a MC in Otome. dwi

>>1992351
I said "different season". aka everything from the past was forgotten and a new arc is to be introduced

>>1992354
>everything from the past was forgotten and a new arc is to be introduced
Like Mai Otome?

>>1992355
That's an entirely different story.
You'll be comparing Elephants to Elephant Seals

>>1992356
I think it's a pretty good example of the level of importance Sunrise places upon Shizuru's character.

>>1992361
Just like how Nanoha and Fate became supporting characters in Vivid? Or Saki and Nodoka as non-existent in Achiga-hen?
Please don't make yourself more bitter than you already are

>>1992366
Who said anything about being bitter? My Otome OTP got plenty of screentime (ArikaMashiro). Sunrise had a fresh slate to give Shizuru, and by extension Shiznat, as much focus as they wanted to and she was mostly relegated to much beloved lesbian pervert and spent like half the show separated from her waifu. Interestingly enough I think there was almost as much NatNao shipbait as there was Shiznat as well.

>>1992370
Though I guess I am a little bitter that the fandom has no interest aside of Shiznat and NatNao.

>>1992345
>She may not have impacted the protagonist but she impacted the whole Mai universe and became one of the most popular characters ever made by Sunrise.

So you're not really interested in what makes a Main Character? This has really just been your platform to talk about a series and character that aren't brought up as often anymore? And you're this eager to talk about them that you're willing to keep up this charade?

Nagisa of Madoka, Mari of Eva, Chris of Symphogear, and even Sakuya of Touhou barely conversed with the protagonist but everyone agrees that they are all main characters. So goes for Shizuru

I'm going off to do my laundry now. Goodbye

Give me a few hours for my reply

Why are you even talking about Touhou. Also Sakuya has been a playable character with full story mode dialog since IN and PCB, pretty much Touhou's golden age.

>Nagisa of Madoka, Mari of Eva, Chris of Symphogear, and even Sakuya of Touhou barely conversed with the protagonist but everyone agrees that they are all main characters.

Are you trying to come across as a parody butthurt /a/non? Nagisa, Mari, and Chris have never been considered main characters. Only Sakuya has, because she's actually a playable choice in several games, and even she's debatable.

A Raging Lesbian who happened to be the MC and she ended up with the 2 poon harem.

>>1991554
I always hate it when someone takes some creative liberty to add an extra unneeded, or unwanted character into a perfectly fine show.

>>1992508
>the 2 poon harem
Who?

>>1992509
In CA's case, unfortunately, this "someone" was the director.

I wonder if anyone told him his shit was wack when he came up with the idea of Tusk.

I also wonder what was his involvement with the CA game, if any. Maybe he actually took his meds that day.

>>1992509
I don't think tusk was a bad character but the director just shat on everything for the sake of self insert, and because of that he shouldn't have been added. If he was just there it wouldn't have been such an issue.

I'm grateful for all the /u/ series we had so far but I'm also hoping we get more /u/ romance series in the future.

>>1992521
I think he isnt involved at all. Game usually has their own director.

Of all the stupid shit that exists on /u/, none is more stupid then the forced rivalry with yaoi.

>>1994225
There's nothing in that post implying a 'forced rivalry with yaoi'. I think you're overly sensitive.

>>1994225
It's not rivalry, it's highlighting how skewed Japan is.

>It's okay for a guy to be homosexual, but if it's a girl it's either a phase or just close friendship

>>1994231
This. It happens in the west too.

>>1994235
This world is so fcking unfair!

>>1994231
the painful truth has been spoken.

>>1994231
Do you even know how yaoi works?
All I see is people complaining about most of them deny homossexuality all the time. It's either "I'm not gay, but I love you" or "I was raped so much that I love him now".

I don't like yaoi either, for a lot of reasons. But saying that's a better representation of homossexuality is wrong. Most yuri works won't do shit like these.

>>1994231
>it's highlighting how skewed Japan is.

Uh no. Watch this, I think it's pretty informative.

This REALLY turns me away from wanting to watch this. I absolutely hate word play that's stupid.

I don't know how many other girls here are into badass transforming jets but Macross Delta is looking to have a yuri sidecouple. Two of the members of Walkure are extremely close and the side materials have revealed they live together.

Kawamori has also spoken about breaking his traditional Macross tenants such as the love triangles into new and different expressions of the ideas. Some are speculating this could mean girl going after girl.

>>1994288
>new and different expressions of the ideas [of love triangles]

This implication, I don't necessarily like. Unless the right one wins.

>>1994290

If it does happen, and the girl loses, it would be the first time a conclusion to a Macross series has ever made me angry. So far I've been on board with absolutely everything that happened.

>>1994285
I side-eye that title too but it was a good watch, pretty stupid to not watch it just because of the title.

>>1994229
It ain't just one post.

I've seen plenty of posts in the past showing some kind of weird hostility towards yaoi and fujoshis.

Which doesn't makes sense since at the end of the day even if not all of us are interested in both yuri and yaoi, it's pretty much the same shit.

>>1994884
>it's pretty much the same shit.

Wat. Aside from stupid fanbases, how?

>>1994887
Do I have to spell it out for you?

Yuri=Relationships between the same sex (women)
Yaoi=Relationships between the same sex (men)

>>1994893
So apples and oranges. As in not the same shit at all, in any way, aside from the most superficial thing. Got ya.

>>1994884
Except that I have zero interest in male characters and male sexuality. I would never be able to enjoy yaoi.

>>1994884
Perhaps it's the very fact that it's "the same shit" that makes us jelly when fujos get something and we don't, and I suppose the same happens when we get yuri related stuff and fujos don't.
People who feel completely indifferent to yaoi are just feeling frustrated that we aren't getting any explicit yuri for this season, while yaoifags are getting 2, that's it.

>>1994893
What the fuck is your point? I'm only interested in one of those, so they're obviously not the same.

>>1994893
>Two dicks together is the same as two vags together
kek

>>1994908
Probably some BS logic that all LGBT(and supporters) people love each other and everything is sunshine and rainbows.

This is not a pic of fujoshi.

>>1995254
Maybe the fandom's reactions are not really different, but you can't say yuri is the same as yaoi...

>>1995142
Please, don't type in such an autistic way. It hurts my eyes and sanity.

>>1995254
What are you even talking about. Take some pills and let go of that victim complex.

>>1995278
Yuri Danshi

>>1994896
>>1994900
Apple and Oranges would be like het and yuri.

The comparison between yaoi and yuri would be similar to a sweet or sour orange.

Might be different genders but at the end of the day it's still about same gender relationships.

It doesn't mean you have to like yaoi but the weird hostility towards yaoi fandom is not needed.

>>1994905
Maybe there could be more explicit yuri anime but just keep it mind that it's the Studios that decides what gets made into an anime.
