Yuri recs
There is a yuri panel at Waicon tomorrow I hope to make it to, and I was thinking I should have my yuri recs post to hand but then I realised I dont seem to have one!
So! A quick list of anime and manga with canon f/f that I liked.
Manga:
Girlfriends by Morinaga Milk: Cute somewhat fanservicey high school romance.
Strawberry Shake Sweet by Shizuru Hayashiya: Cute less fanservicey romantic comedy between two idols.
Morishima Akiko does lots of really cute one shots, some about ACTUAL ADULTS.
Anime:
Revolutionary Girl Utena: Subverts gender roles, deeply weird and full of triggers but very interesting.
(qualified rec) Sakura Trick: blushing moe schoogirls kissing. Cute and happy but really obviously aimed at guys, with lots of closeups of their breasts and thighs. I kind of enjoyed it but feel dirty.
Websites/more recs
Lililicious: scanlations of SO MANY MANGA.
Shira’s Ginormous Shoujo-Ai and Yuri Manga Master Rec List
Kentsarrow's recs
Stuff I haven't seen but have been recced:
Simoun
Iono-sama Fanatics (I have since been strongly anti recced)
Stuff I didn't really like but others do:
Aoi Hana: A bittersweet well-written gentle highschool yuri romance, had too much angsty underage sex for me (afaict the main characters end up happy together, and it's often funny and heartwarming. I just have REALLY BIG underage sex squick)
Mai Hime: Magical girls with too much male gaze and heteronormativity for my tastes. I enjoyed it well enough as action/adventure, but the f/f was rapey and left a bad taste in my mouth.
Love DNA XX: in a world of only XX people, half are trans men (sort of). Lots of fanservice of people with boobs in men's clothes. Not my kind of crossdressing.
Pietà by Nanae Haruno: angsty Special Girls find comfort in each other.
Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl by Satoru Akahori and Yukimaru Katsura: A girlish boy is turned into a girl by an alien. Shenanigans ensue. The main character's father kept "hilariously" hitting on her and it creeped me out.
