AYYYY NEW AKIYAMA HARU WORK, let's see how this one goes, it looks off to a great start!
Also what the fuck are those two gearoi92 and beinmote9z talking about? "This is just lesbian smut" for a series that has shown no sex yet. "Some people on twitter said this" yeah sure they did that is clearly representative of anything like no one thinks Bad Thinking Diary is better than Bloom Into You, why are they trying to suggest people actually believe that. Also, "people want to read yuri not lesbian smut" like bruh lesbians have sex sometimes why are they complaining that sometimes manga about lesbians shows lesbians having sex as if yuri can never include sexual attraction? "ACTUAL ADULT YURI" lmao yuri depicting two adults where one happens to work at a hostess club is not actual adult yuri, clearly. Like, all of Akiyama Haru's yuri works are about adults, she's good at depicting messy queer adult relationships that are actually realistic.
I'm reminded that some Japanese survey/poll stuff from a decade ago suggested male yuri fans wanted manga that was more non-sexual and female yuri fans (who were mostly queer) wanted more manga that actually depicted sexual stuff. Was an amusing correlation, dunno if its relevant here but oh well.
