Oh my - father of my dead mother!!! That's a big spoiler šŸ˜­šŸ¤§

It's ending I hope both of them are happy. still waiting for en translation to finish
Again someone, who didn't understand, that the concept of "Yuri" is different in the country of origin than in your mind. This is yuri, there is no need for a romance as in our western understanding, for Japanese, this is yuri.

I often read comments like this. Is it really so hard to grasp, that there are different understandings because of different cultures?

I do know that I would never grasp the difference between a manga about yuri and a manga about girl friendship on my own as I lack the cultural background. Because of that I just trust the author, native speakers, Japanese publisher or other Japanese readers.

If they say that this is yuri, it just is it.

Edit: Sorry, I missed the fact, that it is about a different mange, but I will stick to my opinion, that a lot of people do not take the cultural difference into account, wehn it comes to the definition of yuri.

Thereā€™s plenty of yuri mangas and trust me I know because Iā€™ve read over 300 that properly depict love between women. If this manga refuses to take that route then all itā€™s doing to giving us another and they were roommates. Yuri bait exists and it happens quite frequently.
