Still, 52 is not much at all. I mean, someone looking for something like Aoi Hana wouldn't be looking for long. Dude, probably... I don't know... If you think about the time you'll spent watch All those, I would say it is fine... |
| Yes, there should be more but alas, it shall not happen. Stick to the mangas for now |

You're complaining about something you have not experienced or seen yet... I don't know why you act like that. But if you wish, here all the yuri and yuri-bait that I watched. There is the number on the left if you're lazy to count them: there is 50 items in that list. Considering that a lot of those 13 special aren't in that list because I don't care about keeping track of them even if I watched them. I have depleted all interesting yuri anime since… I dunno, at least a half a year ago. Considering that I started watching anime one year ago, and that I watch other genres in parallel (such as yaoi… that I also depleted…). And yup, I speak of "interesting yuri", I won't watch something only because it a "yuri", there is different kind of yuri out there, I consider that there is 4 sub-genres of yuri, and the most numerous one in the anime world is the one I don't like (the "soft yuri", such as Yuru Yuri or Sakura Trick). You can also consider that the modern yuri genre was born in 1971, which was 45 year ago. At best, there was 2 yuri anime by year. To be honest, I don't know what you wanted me to do... Do you want me to yell at all of the producers and say, "produce more good quality Shoujo-Ai and Shounen-Ai!"? If that is the case, then I can't do that... Businesses flow from the theory of supply and demand... And guess what, a little of consumers want Shoujo-Ai, therefore the producers will either wont produce or will produce less... In today's age, there's a lot of demand to Moe, Ecchi and other goody fanservicey anime... Just look at the seasonal anime now... I mean producers will not adapt something just because it is the best or it is unique... They will either produce it because people demands it... In short, Shoujo-Ai and probably Shounen-Ai are low in demand, thus producers somewhat ignore those... I don't have facts to prove my arguments, which will led me from being an ass about it... Though I don't mind it, since I am just merely speculating... So, what do you're saying to me again? |
lady_freyja said: _Ako_ said: To be honest, I don't know what you wanted me to do... I never asked you anything, nobody did. And I share what you are saying, since I said more or less the same thing just before. You just randomly asked us to not say that we would like more yuri, with a very passive-aggressive attitude. Like we have no right to express ourselves and we just have to be happy with the current situation. I understand why there isn't much yuri or yaoi, I just find it sad, that's all. No need to passive-aggressive me for no real reason. If you know the reason as to why it is that, "low" in count... Why bother making this shit? |
lady_freyja said: _Ako_ said: If you know the reason as to why it is that, "low" in count... Why bother making this shit? Because understanding and accepting a situation are two different things. And because even if it will not gives us more yuri, it permits at least to relieve some frustration, without attacking anyone. Which is rather nice. Lol... Well you can either punch the door or you can kill someone... That's how I think you should relieve your anger. I mean, there are ways to relieve anger, and I think this does not count for that... Though, it is true that others do it... For me, I just keep it to myself. |

It also led to some new information for me at least, so there is a point to this topic. |
zombie_pegasus said: Anime is much more expensive to produce than manga. Some magical girl anime add in some yuri stuff for the older audience, but true yuri anime don't have enough of a market to be mass produced.Fujoshi tend to be fine with doujinshi. same thoughts with ^ i also agree that fujoshis are fine with doujins.. so it tends to get popular then gets an anime |

| In case you refer to yuri, honestly I'd rather have none than have outright shit, which doesn't seem to be the case over at japan. Anime like Valkyrie drive and cross ange show the disappointing amount of people with 0 standards when it comes to this and how having nothingl is outright better than having pure crap. |
kronopy said: In the anime industry there is a big lack of Shoujo manga, not only Shoujo Ai. And the majority of the shoujo anime adaptation don't even get finished. I think that shoujo in general don't sell that well when it comes to anime, so probably that what why we don't get so many. About Shoujo Ai, to be honest I don't even know who the main target is... I mean BL are written by females for females... most of the shoujo ai and yuri I see out there is written by womans too, but I am not sure if it targets males or females. BL seem to sell in quite a decent ammount, but Shoujo Ai, not so much. I don't think you know what you're talking about but Shoujo manga very big industry in japan. There's no lack of shoujo manga, though yes, they pick the shitty ones to adapt into an anime, since it's decided by magazine polls voted by the Japanese and honestly turns out they have shitty taste. Also shoujo ai has NOTHING to do with shoujo. That's like saying yaoi is similar to shounen. Do you know what shoujo means? It means girl. So "shoujo" itself means targeted towards girls. "Shoujo ai" however is literally translated to "girl's love" or love between girls. |
| I don't even know why Yuru Yuri is mentioned. It's not Yuri nor shoujo ai. It's comedy/slice of life. All the girl x girl in it is purely there for comedic purposes. It cross the line of friendship anyway. |

I may had expressed myself in a confusing way but what I meant is that in anime industry there is a lack of shoujo manga adaptations. Now when it comes to Shojo Ai, the majority of them are created by females authors (males do mostly Yuri.. I may had read some hentai, but I don't remember any Shoujo Ai written by males), and it seem to be targeted towards females just like Shouen Ai is, therefore it becomes Shoujo by defaut. You can have Shounen Shoujo Ai and you can have Shoujo Shoujo Ai, depends on demographics... but there is no doubt that most of the ... let's say ''gay manga'' is written by females for female audience. |

Thus the genre in itself tends to reuse shōjo codes more than the other demographics codes. And no, shōjo-ai doesn't mean that, shōjo-ai literally means "love for girls", aka pedophilia. Do you even know Japanese? Because 少女愛 doesn't literally specify what kind of love it is, or more specifically, what kind of love its towards to. However since there is no particle, it is in fact literally "girl love". It's most certainly not "love for girls" because that wouldn't be specified with the character 愛. Also there would be the を particle to specify that it's towards the girls. It's absolutely not intended to be "pedophilic"... The genre itself is created for the more romantic part of love between girls, hence the character 愛, which means love, but it's a different kind of love you mean, it's more romantic. It's not quite possible to translate on English, since "love" is used for almost anything, also the fetish you're talking about. Shounen-ai, the genre is also a genre that focuses on the romantic part between guys, not "pedophilic" in any way, |

TitanAnteus said: OtakuDaikun said: My biggest complaint is that Yuri relationships are so tame that yuribait anime are pretty much the same intensity. Even Yuri hentai is super tame. It's adorable but also such a tease. Lol, I think you want to much. Don't you think non-yuri anime is just as tame? I mean, think of Rakudai Kishi. That had some fanservice but it was super innocent in the romance department. Ikki had a really hard time trying to kiss Stella. On the other hand, in Sakura Trick and Yuru Yuri it's usually a kissing party up in there. Well it's tricky since some people love the cutesy timid Yuri while I prefer the aggressive Yuri which is even more rare. |

Hanane said: If it doesn't sell well it can't get an anime adaptation. Same goes with BL. Just read manga since shoujo-ai looks dead. Apparently, he/she doesn't like reading manga... That same goes for Hentai. Most of the best Doujin/Original Hentai I've read is really good, but Hentai companies doesn't like Vanilla + Incest so there you go... Plus, the uncensored version takes too long to be released. |

Actually, no. If I decide to write a story about a girl x boy couple, but I can't get it published anywhere except in a yuri magazine, it doesn't mean it's yuri. So the source of a manga doesn't dictate anything. Also shoujo ai doesn't mean pedophilia, that's what you make of it. My japanese isn't perfect, but my logic is sound. If a 12 year old kid writes a shoujo ai manga that 12 year old kid isn't a pedophile. Well atleast if we're using random websites as sources for things to be true https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedophilia. You quote random people from a source that is obviously biased. The first site you refer to says Japanese people don't use it. The second source gives you the unofficial (not in dictionaries means unofficial) definition of a person of the word/phrase. How about I find a Japanese person who will define it as something else for my convenience? Also when it says shoujo ai in romanji it's very likely it's not used by a japanese person. As this thread is opened by a likely not japanese person with likely not the definition that's not even officialized of some japanese people, maybe it doesn't make any sense to stick to that definition most people here don't even know about (which isn't even official). |

| Seems like the majority of what we get nowadays is bait or shows that are an inch away from porn...why can't we find a nice balance? That's probably why Sakura Trick was refreshing for so many. |
