Writes GL without even trying to

 

[GrayBypasser]

What was with that comment? Such a clear leap in argumentation,I'm starting to think i was the one who wrote it.

 

[KimmyChii]

A lot cuter than i expected, also is this yuri (like hentai/porn) or girl love or both? Or did the meaning "yuri" change again?

 

[EKappaZ]

Think we should start over analyzing this too now...

 

[Matthewkeen]

nice.

 

[justforthelulz]

This is getting too meta.

 

[KZO]

It makes sense to think authors write stuff on purpose, right?

 

[FeBriz]

@KimmyChii
I hope she would be able to tell if she was writing the type of "yuri" you are talking about. I think she is writing softer shoujo ai... probably.

 

[MoonlightwolfchanX]

I love how meta this is

 

[HauntedPizza]

@KimmyChii @FeBriz From my understanding, Japan doesn't have Shoujo-Ai, only Yuri. So girls love, and soft gentle romance is also Yuri. It was the West that invented Shoujo-Ai and made everything confusing, and a lot of the time the tagging doesn't even really make sense as everyone has different everyone definitions of Shoujo-Ai. Basically though, she wrote a book about cute interactions between girls, and was surprised when people took it as romantic. She didn't make a book with flat out sex.

 

[henman]

I also interpreted that part like that...

 

[daniel345]

So this means that there is not such thing as yuri bait???

 

[HauntedPizza]

@daniel345 Eh I don't think that's the case. Pretty sure if she didn't go in the direction of actual yuri, at least some of her readers would accuse her of baiting.

 

[Pyoro]

This whole shoujo-ai/yuri rubbish needs to die on Western sites. Just tag it "lesbian" and be done with it.

Anyway, author is basically writing Nettaigyo or something, just not deliberately.

 

[HauntedPizza]

@Pyoro I mean Yuri and GL are the terms commonly used in Japan, and commonly used in the works themselves. So I could see putting an end to Shoujo-Ai, but I'd personally say to keep it tagged with Yuri. Since it keeps it in line with the terminology from the source country. But that's just my opinion and it's cool if you don't agree.

 

[Aulgh]

This is really funny because out of every comment I read, I don't think us ape-brains come even close to that level of thoughtfulness. Lol

 

[blablablub]

That comment was clearly from a literary teacher (obviously cannot directly say English teacher here), they tend to overanalyze everything.

 

[RozuArison08]

Dang, maybe this is what yuri bait authors think 😂

I remember When PBxMarceline shippers thought they were analyzing too much, but it came true lol
