Why would you even assume there is? -_-
I mean, there may as well be (don't really wanna look at raws), but does mere word "girls" is really enough to push yurifag's mind into a spinning frenzy?
(disregard the second part please ; i was tired, and while i genuinely despise yuridom, there wasn't much point in expressing that).

I don't have anything against the genre - it's most likely just like every other one that's out there. It comes with its own set of original tropes, mixed with those being a spin on existing ones. Percentage-wise, ratio of shitty to good titles probably more-or-less adheres to pareto, but because it's a niche, it feels much, much greater.
...i just really don't like the fanbase (or, to be more "fair" - not that it matters - very specific and vocal subgroup of it, that dwells on dynasty scans and probably on 4chan).

If anybody is interested in future chapters the translator Xereste has quit mangadex. He released chapters 5-8 about a month ago (according to his reddit link on his mangadex group website). I find it pretty hard to keep up with his releases cause I've gotten just so used to only using mangadex and line webtoons but one can also find his releases on the boredom scans website

...ultra pretentious moniker by the way, specially combined with the avatar. Cheap juxtaposition is what passes for "personality" in your head I presume?
Also, in spirit of equivalent exchange - "your mother's a whore."
Oh snap, what wit. And those ellipses really emphasize the effort you've put in conjuring that "burn". Yawn.

Hmm.
...Maybe that would actually be cutting if it was not indicative of someone lacking any self-awareness whatsoever. Like a highly opinionated, needlessly self-important anti-social asshole with an Onani Master Kurosawa avatar. Do you sit in the back row at venues and make internal self-monologues while you're at it? Hey, at least I'm not "in-character." The fact that you're doing it unconsciously is both equal measures of incredibly sad and almost being impressive. Imagine I threw in a "hermano" somewhere for your own delusional benefit - I leave where up to you, Master Baiter.
EDIT:
Just saw you updated your profile.
God damn, son. He mad.
[immediately uses ellipses himself in the following sentence]

It's either that, or you're just self loving narcissistic prick that adores the look of his own words. Typical yurifaggotry by the by.
Thanks for proving that yurifags are indeed the worst by the way. Couldn't have done it without you.
Ta-ta.
Okay, so you're just that stupid. ...Okay....okay....okay.....
What a mighty damn extrapolation. From 0 to 100 in less than three sentences, cosmo psychology 101 evaluation included, tax free. You sure you're not the one that's delusional? Cause that's what mental illness is - cascading chain of mental associations that starts from nothing and ends up in everything.

It's called an obsession. You that interaction thirsty "son"?

I like how you think your original quip still retains any meaning and chalk it up to ironic use when you were already doing it before I even posted here. Amazing lack of self-awareness.
Delusions of grandeur and illusory superiority, I see. (Which actually is a textbook indicator for sociopathy and Schizophrenia, by the way.) I'm calling Poe's Law here. Either you're a legit master baiter or you're actually this troubled. I hope to god it's the former, in which case well memed, good sir.
Yeah, no. The APA called and they want their 1896 era understanding of mental illness back.
[lack of self-awareness intensifies]
Isn't it telling that I haven't even talked about yuri at all while that's all you've gone on about, to an obsessive degree? You're absolutely right - it is an obsession. Just not mine.

What did I expect though? Mental patients can't tell they're mental.
Now I'm really done, you're not worth anyone's time.
I like how you posted it like that subconsciously and still can act like it's nothing when pointed to it.
I see, so it wasn't "100". Extrapolate it to infinity for all I care (as in "Hitler", as you guys are prone to do). Yawn.

Putting a lamp's shade on someone else doesn't make you look any better. Or healthier.
Oh, so you're that kind of loonie. Wit overflow, you really love you some you.
[cringe factor intensifies]
Isn't it telling, when someone has so little self-awareness to not even be able to tell where their bizarre behavior started?
Refer to what's directly above / below. No further comment necessary.

Uh-huh. Please, by all means, keep pretending it's that important or meaningful.
Formal thought disorder - Check. (Also, lol, at the Hitler and "as you guys are prone to do" statement. You are in your own little world, aren't you?)
People that lack self-awareness generally can't understand the irony of what they're doing, either.
Oh? Is THAT what you thought you were doing? Well you were doing a terrible job of trying that.
No, I'm afraid you're the loonie that is rejecting modern medical science for what you want to believe in how something works, even if it's discredited.
If you're using words like cringe, please don't procreate. It's not like i believe you'd have the opportunity anyway, but just to be on a safe side.
M-M-MUH LAMPSHADIN
You mean where I quoted you going off on a bizarre rant, unnecessarily, and how your profile reads like an edgy teenaged misanthrope and didn't even point out or say anything about yuri? Come now. Even I didn't think you were this much of an autist.
Actually, yes, there is. Namely a valid point.
...He says after he's already replied to me three times and already told me "ta-ta." For someone that isn't worth your time, you sure continued with your pointless pursuit. And watch, you're probably going to reply - again.

Once upon a time, a poor mother and her child were traversing through the Mangadex comment sections of rather obscure mangas. They have been scavenging for some delicious content. (Counterintuitive, I know.)
One day, they came across a certain comment section that was unusually rife with words.
“Surely a feast we shall have, my dear son,” said the mother. But what she saw disappointed her, so much so to the point where she blocked her child from viewing what laid within the comments.
“My, my. What a bunch of accusatory polemics. Such grandiloquent words and clauses attempting to show intelligence, yet does nothing, nothing whatsoever, to buttress their arguments and integrity.” The mother began to lead her child away. “We mustn’t take another step here. Let us go away, quickly!”
But the boy remained hesitant. “But Ma, what if @definitionofinsanity and @totallynotmike had something of value to say? They seem to be well versed in the English language.”
The mother became annoyed. “You see, my child, they only attempt to trick you by using big boy words. Their words have absolutely no meaning. Their witty remarks and usage of allusions to “Pole’s Law” and the “APA” add up to nothing. This is all because they don’t realize one crucial thing.”
“And what is that, Ma?”
“This is a Mangadex comment section.”

It's quite something to show up 10 months after the fact with a self-defeating shitpost. For future reference, don't cite a defense for being the lowest common denominator and apathy after you just put that much effort into orchestrating it. It's kinda off-putting, like Gandhi firing a machine gun while extolling the virtues of pacifism. It's so juxtaposed that it comes off across as absurdist humor/self-mockery and, y'know, not... whatever you were trying to actually do.

You continue to amaze me, even 10 months later.
How dense does one have to be to not understand the moral of a narrative? I'm trying to convey to you, through your thick skull, this single, crucial message: CHILL. This is a Mangadex comment section, not a fucking debate forum.
While it's true your discourse with totallynotmike took place 10 months ago—and I do concede that the chronological unpunctuality of my comment gives good reason for my comment being unwarranted— I found it especially hilarious to see such a conversation that occurred on such premises as trivial as yuri manga (or whatever it was). I wrote my shitpost for my own laugh and also to see how you or totallynotmike would react. I was not disappointed.
The fact that you continue to use such grandiloquent language amazes me. 18th Century Britain wants their style of writing back.
"Poor Faulkner. Does he really think big emotions come from big words? He thinks I don’t know the ten-dollar words. I know them all right. But there are older and simpler and better words, and those are the ones I use." - Ernest Hemingway
The above quote by the 20th century writer illustrates my point well: I know the vocabulary you know, and no doubt many others do as well. But being that this is, indeed, a mangadex comment section, there is absolutely no reason for you to write this way! Have you ever thought about speaking/writing in a colloquial manner? There is no need for you to go the extra mile and pain yourself by writing in a way that amounts to nothing except you being perceived as pompous and bombastic. Unless, you actually do write and talk like such. You must be fun at parties. For future reference, when arguing with someone, keep your mannerisms short and concise. Don't write ambiguous crap like lowest common denominator, if you know what I mean. It makes you seem much more conceited than—I hope—you actually are.
But enough about your lingo.
You claim my story is absurdist. Congrats on interpreting that much, Einstein. But it clearly shows me that you're delusional. You, who had taken the time to argue about "yurifags" and such on a mangadex comment section, overlook the fact that you're also being absurd in your demeanor; in other words, you're the complete package... of a retard. You point out the fault in others using such loosely based claims, only to pump in extra words and useless crap to increase your argument length. You do that for an essay paper, not here. You belabored your side to the point where totallynotmike has essentially claimed victory by simply not replying back anymore. You're not worth his time.
To have the audacity to point out my faults while possessing all pointers to retardation... Man, I wish I had your ignorance. Your username, your profile pic, the way you talk, your argumentative points— they all sum up to exactly what you are worth: crap. Harsh, I know. But maybe use your rad english skills for something else. Maybe be a writer? Find your raison d'être. But until then, adios.

"Even 10 months later"? Don't you mean 4 days ago?
And how dense does the wannabe HC Andersen have to be to not realize that all his clever writing is all for nought because his contradictory narrative? Just because you wrote it and it looked good to you doesn't mean it wasn't flawed and contradictory and thus a dumpster fire. I mean, what the fuck, are you Rian Johnson going not-so incognito? For all the time you took to write that and undermine your own message you could've wrote "Y'all are both retarded" and not only would I have more respect for that than the lackluster poetic shitpost you strung out but you also would've been more true to your own message than the shit you wrote. Think on that for a second. That's how much you failed. You can't deliver an effective and legitimate moral lesson by violating the moral you were going for by the simple fact of writing it.
Realize that you're the last person that should be giving that advice. Also realize that utilizing the argument "it's a comment section!" to say you can't debate is also really torpedoing your narrative
Like, seriously, please fucking realize this. Try to. Please.
Hurr-fucking-ay, at least some self-awareness is alive.
...And? Again, this whole "venue dictates effort" thing is something you should be avoiding. You don't even seem to realize you are doing the exact same thing you accused me and that guy of doing 10 months ago. Would this qualify as poetic justice in your book yet?
...Okay. Well, mike hasn't even been around in months. I think he got suspended or banned because he and the mods got into it back when the Patreonbux Brigade split from Mangadex around the same time. I dunno, don't really care, but something happened and he hasn't even logged in since then and his username changed.
...I've yet to read a scholarly paper that uses phrasing such as "fucking retarded" and memes, but okay. You go with that.
First, allow me retort with my own reference (that's also more towards my liking).
Second, I don't get where the fuck you're getting the idea that this is some high society shit the way I write. I'm utterly confused why you think I have to type like a retard or a valley girl on a flip phone sending text messages in order not to sound like a Victorian-era snob or some shit, but... Yeah, no. This ain't fucking complicated, anyone with a compulsory education can write and comprehend it. I guess I could spam emojis if that would make you feel better.
Also, some of the most interesting discussions I've ever had have happened in the most bizarre and unlikely places. I'm not going to skip that chance just because you think a comment section isn't worthy of it.
Pompous? Bombastic? Eh...
Like your attention span?
It's not ambiguous at all. It's catering. To the low information, lowest energy, lowest effort that you can. Which is probably why it upset you so.
See, I find it interesting when someone thinks that's arrogance (...what happened to it being "ambiguous," by the way? you seem to catch the drift here). It's not arrogance to feel disappointed that someone is setting themselves up for standards of low expectation. I feel most people are actually quite intelligent, many more so than me. But I think they limit themselves because of cancerous reasoning like what you throw about. To be honest, I despise that. Because once people start realizing that no one ever expects anything out of them, they stop giving a shit to try. And that is un-fucking-acceptable in my book. So, if you want brevity and use that to justify it... Pound sand, I guess?
The very fact that you're continuing to do what you set out against and failed at conveying right this very second with this entire post tells me you might not be the best person to ask about self-awareness or objective reality.
See, because, you came in here wanting to give us all a bedtime story rendition, right? About how it's pointless to do this and it's a comment section and it's not worth the time... And you did that by spending god-only-knows how long writing that parabola to do so. It probably took you longer to write that than it's taken me to write this, because this is just a stream of consciousness for me for the most part. You can't tell me to be low effort and not waste my time... when you're doing the exact same fucking thing. Throw in a hermano there for your own mental image reading this if you want.
And worse yet? You're arguing with me just like Mike did. Way to fucking go.
Uh-huh. And who is the one telling other people how to conduct themselves and writing Little Red Riding Hood fanfiction to do it on the internet? It sure as fuck isn't me.
...He says in all honesty - 2428 characters later... Yeah, I take back what I said with you still retaining some self-awareness. Clearly I was wrong.
You... wish? Wish, you say? Well, today I am a genie then. [whoosh] BEHOLD A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE! You have been "gifted" what you "wished" for! No, no. No thanks is necessary, this is just my natural generosity.
"DURR HIS NAEM N HIS AAVARDTARD MEENS HE KWAZY HURR"
Yeah, that wasn't low effort at all. Yeah, you didn't just re-use the same thing Mike said 10 months ago. Y'know, you talked about essay papers before - but this is legit the first time I've seen someone plagiarize someone's comments in a dirty, filthy peasant-riddled comment section.
So crap you were simply compelled to write me a bedtime story about arguing on the interwebs and then argued about it with me on the internets.
Write and sing me a ballad now. See if you can get Meatloaf to do it, maybe inspired by "I'd Do Anything for Love" but with a new spin on it, y'know?
