I Reincarnated as the Heroine in a Yuri Game, but for Some Reason That Thing Was Still There! - Ch. 1

[SrNevik]

Some crossdresser x crossdresser and crossdresser x girl series are also tagged as a Yuri, we even have the tag "pseudo-yuri" in Japan. I believe that if the author said this isn't exactly Yuri, he's putting the work in the pseudo-yuri box, which makes sense, once that nothing in the story indicates that the main character wants to be a girl

I disagree but I'll let the chapters come out. They'll explain things better than I can. There's not much else for me to say.

This should have the yuri tag. This already has other chapters out, and it's clear what the intent is with this character and their feelings about themselves. Do the uploaders just change tags because of comments? Shouldn't they have access to the newer chapters first and base tags on that?

This series also has yuri as one of its official tags, so there was never a reason to tag this differently than what it is officially.

The author said on Twitter that the story isn't supposed to be Yuri

I know what the author said (that it looks like yuri but isn't exactly yuri), and that can be because she knows how the word "yuri" is used in Japan, and the expected reception to a trans character. I've seen this before. It can be a sensitive issue. She typically draws yuri as well, and this series is exactly like her other stuff.

The official release in Japanese tags the series as Yuri, and that is the release she sends you to as well. This should match those tags, and having read ahead, I think that would be appropriate for now. Whenever there is a character like this, tags and language always get mixed up or debated.

a compromise:

Schrödinger's Yuri.​

Couldn't even keep it a secret for 1 Chapter.

What is with manga and doing this? From crossdressing to gender bending, the secret never seems to last at all and it is so bizarre.

I do kinda wish a different term from "transphobic" had caught on first.

Something that lasers in on "bigot" but as it pertains to hating/oppressing transfolk specifically.

"phobic" as a suffix really allows for the dismissing of the actual issue on the basis of semantics far too easily and it just muddies the waters all the more.

To make this comment on-topic to the actual manga:
I do wonder if even a nuanced, "hinted at" dysphoria narrative will be at play, or if the protagonist will continue to identify as "him", just passing as a girl within the academy to avoid being lynched by anyone who finds out about the equipment downstairs (given that referenced event in the last quarter or so of the chapter).
I could see it playing out in either way, given what the protagonist lamented right before being struck by Truck-kun, so I think it could be argued the groundwork is laid to include a trans-centric element to the story, or go the tomgirl/femboy route of just hiding in plain sight as the protagonist navigates the world and story and lives the academy life alongside the various heroine capture targets.
