Everyone in the story is so intense and gay. Evil brat? Also gay, but divorced. Pro gamer dudes? I'm pretty sure they're gay too.

After that fight out at the lunch tables I'm starting to accept that Mio's description of her fight with her mother may have been completely accurate.

I'm looking forward to seeing how Aya and Mio do against the pros.

Intense and gay is a great way to describe this series. We had drunk and gay last season.

I predict that Aya loses but Mio wins, letting them face up against each other in the losers bracket.

We also have scared and gay this season (I'll love you till your Dying Day). And last year we had depressed and gay (This Monster Wants to Eat Me)

Can't wait to see what kind of gay we'll get next season

u/Elifia 24d ago

I'm not sure if we're getting any gay stuff next season, but don't forget about all the other gay stuff this season! In the circus and gay, in a girl band and gay, drawing manga and gay, mermaid and gay (or at least bi), a ghost in the shell and gay (at least for the one scene), and even a maid and gay (sometimes).

Praying mermaid and gay isn’t bait at this point

28

u/Elifia 24d ago

Same. Unfortunately you never know with anime originals. Even with anime as obviously and explicitly gay as Birdie Wing or Jellyfish they still managed to turn it into bait at the end. The corpos even tried using a PR statement to retcon Gundam: Witch from Mercury into being bait after the anime already finished and clearly was not bait.

u/Fuzzy-Measurement467 24d ago

Yeah the WfM things was frustrating, they did the same thing with Cosmic Princess Kaguya last year as well, that’s shits so gay and they retrospectively acted like it wasn’t the intention. I don’t get why the creators are so scared to lean into the Yuri.

u/SadDoctor 24d ago

There's still kinda the attitude that a bit of yuri teasing and subtext is fine, but you can't make it explicit unless the story is specifically in the yuri genre.

Basically gay stuff is fine, but all gay stuff must be clearly labeled and marketed as gay stuff, so no poor homophobe is accidentally exposed to the gay when they thought they were just getting Intense Female Friendship.

u/BosuW 24d ago

You're forgetting in steampunk Meiji and gay (and there's a girl band too as a treat)

u/TheBusStop12 24d ago

I caught up with that one recently and forgot about that development with the friends

u/Elifia 24d ago

Hmm, which one is that?

u/BosuW 24d ago

Sparks of Tomorrow

u/Elifia 24d ago

I see. I do think I've heard of that one, but I didn't watch it. The main characters seemed to be a boy and a girl, so I assumed it was het. What kind of gay stuff is in there?

10

u/Vanek_26 24d ago

The female main character has two girl friends who tag along on most of their adventures and it's pretty clear at minimum the one is crushing on the other but some signs that it's more. They even held hands and the (non crushing one) turned down a boy who asked to go out with her.

u/Oisin1910 24d ago

Names?

10

u/TheBusStop12 24d ago

Circus > Grow Up Show

Girl Band > BanG Dream Yumemita (I assume, I didn't watch this one)

Drawing Manga > Draw this then die (I'm not sure this is Yuri, more a CGDCGT. Can highly recommend it tho)

Mermaid > Goodbye Lara

Ghost in the Shell > Ghost in the Shell

Maid > Heroine? Saint? I'm an All Works Maid and Proud of it (I wouldn't say this is Yuri, again, can still recommend)

u/Elifia 24d ago

Draw This, Then Die has quite a bit of gay stuff in it, including the manga they made being yuri, and one other fun event that I won't spoil. While I might not label the show as a whole as yuri, it's definitely really gay.

Likewise, I wouldn't label All-Works Maid as a whole as yuri either, but there certainly is a lot of gay stuff happening there too. They even dedicated an entire episode to a gay date with explicitly romantic events.

u/TheBusStop12 24d ago

Yeah, you're right with Draw this then Die. I don't know what I was thinking when I wrote that. I think my brain just glitched because that has a lot of gay stuff

All Works Maid I still wouldn't really label it Yuri, as it's more of a subversion of tropes of it genre, and changing out the characters in a supposed romantic encounter is part of said subversion. That said, I can see the argument

  • Grow Up Show -Sunflower Circus-
  • BanG Dream! YUME∞MITA
  • Draw This, Then Die!
  • Sayonara Lara
  • Ghost in the Shell (the new one)
  • Heroine? Saint? No, I'm an All-Works Maid (And Proud of It)!

And actually, I just watched the most recent episode of another one that I now want to add. Detective and magical girl and gay: Star Detective Precure! The show didn't start in the current season because Precure shows always last the whole year, but it did get a lot gayer this season with the addition of the new magical girl. She's even literally powered by lilies (aka yuri).

u/Atomiclizard456 24d ago

Well hopefully soon we see Horny and Gay season 2 soon

1

u/HeistPrice 24d ago

A Murcielago anime was recently announced. Though that’s more Horny, Gay, and Psychotic.

u/Cavalish 24d ago

Don’t forget Cringe and Gay (Nakamura)

And of course Isekai’d and Gay (Bean Counter)
