The person I asked owns a website called yuriempire and it’s a very popular site so it was hard to not take his opinion as facts. Either way I just can’t help wanting to see any type of true yuri in an all female cast. That genre has to be one of the smallest by far when it comes to getting a show. Wish people enjoyed yuri more then ntr or tentacles lol


I immediately realized that we were talking about the same person. YuriEmpire is essentially a lesbian version of fujoshi with all the related things like "they look at each other, they fockin", etc. I'd rather read Erica Friedman, who, for all her eerie feminist and SJW bias, tries to be sober about content and not wear shipping goggles unnecessarily.

Few? Well, that's a pretty dubious statement. Yes, there is very little "real" yuri, but yuri bait or ship bait is now quite a lot. For example, this season already has at least 1.5 yuri shows and a lot of ship bait like Strike Wiches. And in general, the genre has long been more trendy than glam metal in the 80s, lol.

Yea I agree there I try to read his info but like u said sometimes he will count anything as yuri ships and I just can’t be like that. They either have to talk about loving the person or trying to be near them like a vampire moved in the neighborhood or it has to be explicit yuri like citrus for me to count it

This very easily turns into wishful thinking by manipulating terminology like "girlfriends instead of best friends" or "crush instead of admiration" and so on, which really annoys me. However, nobody forbids you to ship characters, if you will. The main thing is not to be captivated by your own illusions.

Damn someone with there head on straight that’s nice to see. I wish they would do Girl Friends if there going to animate a yuri. I’m getting kind of tired of the yuri bait and insane drama for yuri and for romances. Like the one coming out next season u can tell that one will be crazy drama but at least it won’t be third wheels I don’t think but maybe could end in death

Girlfriends is considered a cult work, but personally I even consider it somewhat underrated. This manga made an important message that, for some reason, queer people tend to see romantic overtones in any friendliness from straight people, but queer folks or even straight yuri fans (what a pun) keep foolish themselves with different bait.

Next season? Are you about Urasekai Picnic? Well, the author is definitely a very eccentric person, but from what I've heard about the title, there is no controversy there.

I’d take that over love triangles, death, or overly dramatic

Oh I’ve seen everything there is on yuriempires list for 1&2 categories and some here and there on 3&4 I just want new things. If u think about it there’s not many actual yuri anime’s tbh. Maybe 5-10 that are 100% girls with real relationships so there’s many mangas they could try that are better then what’s available now

I might prolly late the train carriage. But, wow! This show is so groovy!

Ofc i must check this out till the end. Because its really made my body move without even i realizing before. Lol. What a very good first episode, with a nice introduction toward the main characters. A couple of girls has already been announced with a fast pace. Rinku had a great personality, she was so cheering! While Maho was indeed adorable dj-ing in the background. The side character that caught my attention in the first glimpse was that pink hair dj. Now, i am really curious about her, beside the main progression over their, Rinku and Maho, unit to perform. Lets see next!

damn this anime is pretty interesting, looks like theres cgi and rotoscoping and its pretty well done. characters are pretty cool and story seems alright. also, that school is kinda weird, they have a nightclub in it and dj rooms? also the way the school looks is pretty strange too but i think its pretty cool.

Honestly don't mind the CGI at all, character design is good. Really good first episode, music is so good. I know my volume is going to be at the max while watching this anime.

That was a very good first episode of D4DJ. After weeks of interest, I have finally watched it and it didn't disappoint. Although our main girl Rinku was off-putting at first, I think she can be a good character. And Maho pretty much is Adachi from her titular show.

WOW WAR TONIGHT is already ringing at my head, what a great song.

I never knew I needed something like this in my life. That was such a groovy start and Aimoto has already won me over. The CGI is jarring but really fun and BanG Dream already desensitized me to it a bit. I do love how expressive it is in the performances.

This was not that bad. I did not find the fact that the CGI was completely different disturbing. They started off the anime fun and neat. The music they showed off during the first episode itself were bangers. Looking forward to seeing more.

Very good and energetic start. I like the CGI.

Rinku is so cute and funny. ^^ I love her type of cheerful airhead characters.

Their school looks awesome.

How does the CG in this look so much worse than what SANZIGEN managed in Bandori? The side character models are absolutely hideous and I'd have preferred the Bandori approach of drawing them in 2D to save resources for the main characters. Even more so when the main characters have slightly less ugly, but still very ugly, character models and character designs: the eyes and mouths are consistently too big and the textures just look off (especially with the eyes, which look like they're glassed over and are completely lacking in expressiveness). The colours they've used for the characters' hair and eyes don't match at all either. It's not just the anime though, as I remember having the same thought processes whenever I've seen art from the gacha game too.

My other big complaint is that Rinku is basically a Honoka/Chika clone and I am so sick and tired of that type of cluelessly optimistic, annoyingly pushy main girl in this type of show.

On the bright side, that Peaky P-Key song was great, both as a piece of music and as a performance from a visual perspective. So good in fact that I'm confused about how everything else looks so ugly by comparison.

I enjoyed the first ep quite a bit, it was full of energy.

I just want to point out that why does their high school look like a five-star resort lol? Like, do the students live there or something as it looks massive?

Full CG huh? Interesting

Started watching it for the meme in the opening, gonna see if I'm going to stick to it.

The songs are cool tho and the opening is a banger
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

Actually, I have a little bit nervous when I know. It's all 3D animation. Because I have already seen EX-arm. And I have PTSD from it. But this one is better. It can make me feel better and have more reliable thought to watch more 3D anime. If you have PTSD from EX-arm, you could watch this one to cured you by itself.

Looks great so far. I love the attention to detail with all the real life equipment and actual techniques used. The Sound Director on this is going ham with all the low end xD


I have high hopes for the rest of this season!
