Of course not, it's a quality show on its own.

If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that.

it’s genuinely not. the show on its own is amazing; story, characters, and everything. sure, yuri may attract certain audience, but you can’t deny the show is quality on its own.

Not in the slightest, to be honest the Yuri probably feels secondary, especially after the latest episode. Don't get me wrong the Yuri element is well done so far, but it isn't the be all and end all of the show by any means. There are some good plot ideas, the characters are all interesting and from what I've just watched the story/arc is about to kick off big time.

it was the yuri that brought me to start watching, but I think the plot is actually quite nice, the past few episodes were mostly story too iirc
also not really related but I really like the opening

At most, I think it's getting people in the door. people are staying for other quality aspects.

God no. People brought up similar arguments for Gundam: Witch From Mercury. No, the yuri isn’t carrying it. It is drawing people in because it is different then the other aspects are keeping the viewer’s attention. I genuinely love the idea of a seeing a princess, who gave up the right to the throne, to become a magical scientist and she gains what she wants, the ability to use magic, through help and research. That is more interesting than “I was a slum dweller kid who wants to be the next king or the most powerful to make everyone happy.”

I’d say not “carrying it” but it’s a large part of why I watch the show 😏

That being said I don't really think the yuri is "carrying" the show but it is a big factor in its popularity imo, if it was just an isekai reincarnation anime with a male protagonist and a straight romance I don't really think it would be seen as anything too special.

It is out of control. There are way too many people with nothing to do just trying to troll on the level of 12-year-olds circa 2002 on Facebook. There isn't even any effort behind these threads and it is quite annoying that there are barely any serious topics or discussions anymore. Everyone's just trying to bash on the things they do not like or understand, like this was Twitter and everyone just needs to be made aware of whatever idiotic vitriol is going through their underdeveloped brains.

Hot take: I think the show would be more popular with a score over 8.00 if Anis was a guy. There is definitely a novelty to the show being labeled yuri (because if it wasn't labeled as such, there'd be a flood of people arguing that it's not) but I think you're underestimating the appeal of having a male MC.

I think the show looks good, it's a solid setup where the isekai aspect is minimalized, the action is good (if limited), and you have an MC who is strong without being blatantly overpowered, giving him something to strive for. Also, the pseudo-harem is in the background while MC and Euphy build a slow burn romance. I don't see why it couldn't be as good or better than Angel Next Door

For starters because Angel Next Door isn't good in the slightlest Well, we may never know what score might it be if it was a male MC, but it definitely cathers to a smaller niche due to being yuri.

Lol. While I agree about Angle Next Door, the masses really enjoy it. But that's neither here nor there. I get that scores are more volatile the less people watch a show, and shows have a better chance at a higher score because of that. I just don't believe that yuri shows are massively overrated when none of them, not even Bloom Into You, can get over 8.

yes it is. Check jp twitter for this show (50K), the circulation in JP. Legit no one is actually interested in the series. It is not going to be the next light novel franchise like Toaru. It is insane to even consider this to be an extremely in demand show.

The only male guy Algard just turned out to be a back stabbing asshole. It is just the crowd that is into this stuff happen to probably not be doing anything else, and can use ip manipulation to bot or comment this show onto to the top.

If I want to see 2 women kissing, I can find that in a fast and furious movie

I think a lot can be blamed of the low media literacy that has started to plague the anime community. For starters, way too many people seem to require a literal connection to the main characters either by projecting or aspiring to be like them instead of doing what people have done throughout the millenia when consuming a story, which is understanding characters as a literary device used to tell those stories.

When reading through the dumb shit being posted here daily I can't stop repeating the same thought over and over: "No, you do not need to 'like' the MC (or any other character for that matter), you dumb donut, s/he is not your friend and the reason you cannot relate at all is because your lacking empathetic skills only allow you to connect to either blank shells or carbon copies of the person you wished you were." For example, I find it very disturbing that so many men here are incapable of relating to female main characters at all and automatically downvote series based solely on that principle. As a male myself I find that attitude and lacking mental capacity so stupid.

And god, the mental gymnastics they engage with in order to reach their retarded conclusions on why other people actually liked it when they didn't are on the level of Olympians. It seems like all that anime "fans" can understand now are dumbed-down stories that barely hover above the complexity of Dragon Ball. Good guy fights bad guys. The end.

Yuri shows rarely rank above the 7 score on MAL and some door-knobs here still have the ability to conclude that this barely-touched-on genre device used here is the SOLE reason why this series is scored so high? FFS. Whatever happened to reason, let alone common sense? Some people have too many micro-plastics in their brains, I swear.

It is a novelty, for sure, but definitely not enough to make enough of a difference in it's score. It isn't even a defining aspect of the story as barely any focus is given to it for it to be targetted by people who fetishize the genre. The series is just competent enough at being competent and it has a competent score for it. Not a masterpiece, not a faceplant, just competent.

There is no way the yuri can be carrying it, because versus other yuri shows, the yuri here is mostly sparse, it will become heavier on that for the final episodes, adapting volume 3, but for now, there is less yuri scenes than I wanted and expected when I started this, yet I watch, and many do, due to other qualities regarding the show, nothing more is needed to say, comments above should be enough.

If you consider that is what 90% of comments on this are talking about just like with lyco reco, then yes. Had it had a male mc, people will be screaming harem and bad mc all the way throughojt. Legit no1 in Japan is reading or watching this. There is no fanbase but the yuri fanbase. The mal mods keep pushing this. Japan hates foreigners so the last thing they want is for this crowd who can't understand the language to run the anime scene.

Every criticism on lyco reco and this show has a massive meltdown. Much more than the aot or mha threads

This fact might blow some minds here, but Yuri is romance, not just porn. The main appeal of this show for me is the romance. There was no explicit sex in the finale, nor did I expect there to be any, and it still made me very happy.

If you can wrap your head around the idea that a lot of people watch straight romance for the romance, and not because they expect the characters to fuck on screen, then this concept shouldn't be that hard to grasp either.

You think? I'd say this is a pretty fresh show:

The fantasy world doesn't spoil the reincarnated MC rotten.

The MC

We get a believable explanation, as to why a stereotypical reverse harem heroine is so attractive to the men.

The yuri aspect is just the cherry on top.
