Sufficient evidence that she's a lesbian/yuri flavoured?

That wasn't meant to write it off, please don't get the wrong idea!!

For anime I haven't seen personally, I usually like to have evidence as to why they should be added. I don't usually trust the MAL write-ups.

As my linked description implies, her lesbianism is obvious.
She's the one writing a love letter/later confessing to the main character Naeka (who expected a handsome guy, btw), installs a lot of hifi equipment to get nude shots and threatens the "Naeka Boob Fanclub" because they've got simular ambitions.

She's got the Chizuru(Bleach) personality.

Aren't they all like... I dunno. I keep hearing how NOT yuri this series and its characters are, and that they end up liking the same guy or something?? I dunno. Evidence, everminded! :D I trust your yuri judgement, so give me proof!

Even though the portrait of lilies should be proof enough... still!

Oh, the pressure! >"<

I actually wouldn't label Sae (or Hiro) as 'true' yuri characters though- they're just cute fodder. They have the dynamic of a married couple - Sae being the hard working husband (she writes serialised romances for a magazine) and Hiro being the wife, cooking the meals for Sae and takes care of her etc.

The possible yuri can been seen in little things like when Hiro recieved a love letter and Sae became very anxious over what her response would be (Hiro turned the guy down without thought). Or when Sae was having trouble finishing her story, she became stressed out and eventually fell asleep with her head in Hiro's lap. She then wrote that kind of scene as the end to her story.

This is the most famous part...Somehow I get the feeling they were poking fun at yuri fans. :P



As for liking the same guy, to my knowledge (although scanlations are a volume behind) there aren't any male characters seen aside from the principal. There was one small part where they went to a water park and Sae become flustered over a handsome lifeguard, but that's all I can think of...

In conclusion...MAYBE. But not really. Yeah, I don't know if that helped at all...

Hmmm, it's playing out like the whole series may have yuri undertones, not just the single character. When I look at the characters, they're mostly those 90 - 100% undeniable HARD GAY sorts :P

Like if we're going to rate them, Fumi would be 100%, Soi Fong would be a 85% and Yumi would be a 20% (I'm talking about actual yuri stuff, not just how gay they act with other girls, since Yumi would get a 150% :P).

The girls were in love with each other but the conclusion to the story was they were forced to become wives of the Emperor, not in the traditional sense, but more as a personal lesbian show for him. ( " -_-)

But is fanservice "yuri"? Especially since it seems to be about vampires, I can see why it'd be tagged as that if one girl suddenly bites another girl's neck for blood. And a tendency does not make it yuri, sorry mate :/

Umi Monogatari had the two main girls basically all over one another and one of them screaming she loves the other one--but it's not yuri.

I'm quite convinced that it'll turn out like a real yuri (it's still being published)-
but since the story is quite action-driven at the moment, one might want to use yuri goggles to interprete all those blushes, hints, hugs&freudian slips.

The tendency was directed towards the "angel dust"-thing -
the female protagonists yearn for each other after being together for quite a while, merging their souls and body to reach a higher life form.
It indeed is subtle romantic interest.

If you have things like "Devilman Lady" in anime relations, these two definately belong there.

That's because the entire point of Devilman was Jun denying her sexuality and trying and failing not to fall in love with another woman. And there were several female characters who were either attracted to Jun emotionally, mentally or sexually.

I see, a Ctrl-V. Some of them are already on the list btw.

I have a radical suggestion! I think maybe there should be a limit on one shots being added. Not to deny them recognition, but because if every single one is listed, it's going to end up being a very long list. It may be better in the long run to list compilation volumes/magazines and 'important'(?) one-shots. I don't know, just an idea! :D

Onii-sama e... is already in the character relations list, but since she's probably the only real HARD GAY in the anime, like Sei is in Marimite, I'll add.

@Black Poet:

Lots of those are in the list already, in different forms as some of those one-shots are in tankoubon.

For any future adders:

Please provide a MAL link for the anime/manga/character. It helps a lot!

Maybe Serial Experiments Lain? The shoujo-ai doesn't constitute a large portion of the show, but the shoujo-ai does constitute all of the romance in the show (basically, there's not much romance).

Also, Alien Nine is pretty solidly shoujo-ai. The anime doesn't quite get past subtext, but the manga makes it pretty clear.

Haha, Lain. That one is particularly hard to figure out because it seemed that Alice and Lain might have cared for one another, but then you realised what Lain was and who Alice really liked. So I dunno if to consider that yuri at all.

But Alien Nine... I see what you mean. I will try reading the manga and seeing if the manga is worth the add. I did see the anime and loved it immensely, but I can't remember if there was a yuri vibe at all or if it was all goggles.

If you haven't read Alien Nine you're probably not going to be able to; to the best of my knowledge there isn't a full English scanlation floating around on the internet (I've got CPM's English release and some Japanese raw scans, but getting the Japanese text off and the English text on takes more patience than I have). Also, I sort of retract the certainty of my comment on how much shoujo-ai is in Alien Nine (I'm not too functional at 2 in the morning). If I remember correctly, the manga features a single kiss and some strong subtext (not commenting on Emulators, $100+ is too much to pay for a single used volume of manga), though given the sort of story (surreal psychological horror) the subtext might count for enough.

Harem end imminent. There are no lesbians in harem.

Her "crush" seems more like it's service rather than real feelings or a way of life for her. Also, the whole concept of the anime being about the harem end, I somehow doubt her feelings are not more than fanservice meant to titillate both Sugisaki or whatever he's called and the audience.

@ tehnominator

True. I wouldn't really suggest her, if it was only because she enjoys reading yuri manga. But I still think (hope) this fact wasn't just dropped there accidentally.

Kei is straight, Mizuki is more like bi. She has a special interest in girls.
I've come to that point because she definitely likes Kei and was even getting jealous when Hiro was around.

In the second season she stated to her cousin: "I'm clearly dedicated to Kei-senpai, so even if a lot of different men were to hit on me, I won't change my mind." Plus she liked Chihiro from the first sight. Then I noticed that it took longer for her to fall invole with Kuze, than the girls.

Anyway I can't force my opinion on anyone, so it will be better if you check and decide.

We added CANAAN to the character relations, which generally covers Liang Qi as well. Since she wasn't the only kinda really probably totally gay character in the series-- Maria and Canaan herself seemed to love each other a lot :)

or
Nono from Hitohira


Tsuyokiss isn't all that serious; but Nono, Mugi, and Kirei in Hitohira all seemed to be quite... close.... These came to mind when I was comparing our lists and I don't think you have these two listed as completed.

Hmmm, I'll add the Tsuyokiss girl, because even if she's an ounce serious about her feelings, then I can dig it.

Like Kuroko from Railgun --> hard gay for Biribiri, played for laughs, but there's genuine feeling in there.
Kanako from Maria Holic --> as perverted as she is and as much as her feelings for girls are used for exploitation, she still is pretty gay.

But:

The student council president from Geass --> just because she flirts with girls doesn't mean she likes them.

I'll do some research on the Sae girl again, and this Nono character.

It's getting very hard to add people. Just recently I added a character who says she's a lesbian and who everyone recognises as a lesbian, but she seems straight. I don't know whether she's just playing around or serious, about being straight that is, since she's got undeniable attraction to women... ah, it's so frustrating to think about.

For Hidamari - Although I'm still not sure is Sae would classify (aforementioned lack of hard gay) - I think Natsume might. She seems to have a rather tsundere obsessive rival crush on Sae. I'll see if I can pinpoint some evidence for her...
