| I just started this and was wondering if the Shoujo Ai tag is legit |
idk why I was here but I'm prob back to playing Dragon's Dogma 2 again when you read this |
| the shoujo-ai is used more for comedy then actually theme. much like K-on and YuruYuri |
| Cool, thanks! |

| So, can i watch this without haven't seen the original one? honestly im not expecting much and surely i will not watch this for the plot but rather im interested in that shoujo ai tag. |

Watch the original. This would not exist if the original sucks. komic said: the shoujo-ai is used more for comedy then actually theme. much like K-on and YuruYuri Aria AA is more of between the two. Aria (the girl) is definitely straight. Akari is just admiration to obsession. I doubt see actually loves Aria like a lover do. The other girls (who shows yuri love) are so funny in their pursuit that I don't take their romance seriously anymore. So I agree with the yuri hear is pure for comedy.... or fan service ONLY, like Railgun's |

No need to watch it. And if you are interested in the yuri, there is none in the original show (which is just generic harem) |
Fipse said: No need to watch it. And if you are interested in the yuri, there is none in the original show (which is just generic harem) He must coz what's the point of having Aria in the title if the current show doesn't show development or background about her? This is just about Akari's obsession.... and sicking moe-overload Personally, this is an insult to the franchise. |

I've read the synopsis of the original one and im personally not interested however I think I might like this one if it has some funny yuri subtext, Im all for it. I dont really care about the franchise tbh |

I don't see how this can be an insult to a franchise that is already insulting its readers with generic hetero harem... ;) |

| This is not shoujo ai. It's yuri. MAL really needs to fix this alongside all the other updates. Imeon said: Better than your generic yuri harem that doesn't make any sense. Making every girl in a series almost lesbians. Generic yuri harem? That makes no sense. Where are all the yuri harems at? Original series was garbage, btw. |

Making every girl in a series almost lesbians. So far it is just a love triangle. Well not even that. And how can a yuri harem be generic when there is one anime for it every 5 years? ;) |

Fipse said: boletarier said: I've never heard of it that way before, I was pretty sure Shoujo Ai is just about romance between girls? It is something the west made up. In Japan Shoujo Ai means lesbian pedophilia. Well thanks for clearing that up. I had no idea. |

boletarier said: Redfoxoffire said: Yuri is romance between girls. Shoujo ai is pedophilia. That's a pretty significant difference. I've never heard of it that way before, I was pretty sure Shoujo Ai is just about romance between girls? That's because it is? Shoujou ai isn't pedophilia. If you translated it directly it means Girl's Love. Yuri is hardcore. As in girls having sex with each other. The reason why yuri anime are tagged Shoujou Ai is so that people don't get flooded with actual yuri.

I don't see how this can be an insult to a franchise that is already insulting its readers with generic hetero harem... ;) You dislike the original just because the lead is male. Hating a show because of the gender of the protagonist is just backwards, and you're falling into the hole of acting like the people you hate. Aria AA is basically just Aria with a female Kinji instead. I mean her harem is basically the same personality wise. Also, I've never really understood the hate for the original Aria. Kinji was actually a pretty interesting and conflicted character that really brought out a lot of the characters he interacted with. Honestly saw a lot of expressions and personality from the heroines in that show than in AA. |

The reason why yuri anime are tagged Shoujou Ai is so that people don't get flooded with actual yuri. It helps to do research before spouting bullshit. Shoujo ai refers to pedophilia in Japan, and the west doesn't use the term to mean "girls love" anymore with the exception of sites like MAL who aren't keeping up with the times. Any official outlet uses "yuri" for any kind of romance between girls, as do actual fans of the genre. In fact, yuri fans - such as myself - typically loathe the term "shoujo ai" when used as a substitute for yuri. Protip: Translating "directly" will often get you nowhere. Yes, "shoujo ai" literally means "girls love." But while you may read that as "love between girls," in Japan it is "love of [young] girls." Aka pedophilia. |

You can exclude Hentai from your searches, so thats pointless. |
