The description sounds like an extremely generic girl meets boy as kids and reunite later romance, but the boy is actually a girl so it going to be yuri ish?


Update: I have read a few chapters and it is yuri ish, but it probably won't go past subtext, tho I am only up to chapter 3 so it might change later

This is your run-of-the-mill Kirara manga adaptation, so there's usually nothing besides girl/girl bonding. Exceptions exist where subtext can be damned like Sakura Trick or a minor character in Anima Yell but they're the rarity. Personally I don't know, there are only 5 chapters that got translated but we'll see.

Regardless of how much subtext-ish will be this anime, yuri fans will still call it yuri and will see any events like yuri bait. Hell, did you see a discussion of the first announcement of this anime on reddit? "little yuri" in the understanding of the modern yuri community is "girls have a boyfriends."

Well after watching the first episode raw . The girls sure like to hold each others hands a lot =P Not saying its going to be a Yuri wanna see it with subs my Japanese are not very good =P


But the studio Doga Kobo have made Yuri's before like Yuru Yuri and Hina Logi: From Luck & Logic!


So Im hopeful its going to be a Yuri!! And you can clearly see the two females holding hands and the planet Venus in the background


So you can read in to that how you want i dont care what other thinks!!! But personally I doubt it just a coincidence two females are holding hands under Venus watchful eye!!


This is some from wiki about Venus symbolism. "Two interlocking female sex symbols, intended to represent a lesbian couple, or lesbianism in general. The symbol derives from the astrological symbol for the planet Venus"

There is no romance tag so I don't think that it's going to be a full blown yuri.
It's most likely going to be a CGDCT show with light yuri elements.
Although there was some yuri teasing and symbolism in the episode 1.

@Xstasy

If the show is not primarily aimed at romance, then the absence of this tag means nothing. For example, Yuri on Ice was not a romantic show in the first place and don't have a tag, but it was BL. On the other hand, what you call "teasing and symbolism" is nothing more than just cute art with attractive moe characters. Pop culture has been doing this for years with any media and areas of life, so I don’t understand why it suddenly began to be considered as some kind of teasing and even more as subtext.

It's prob because of how the interactions are going. Seeing 'two girls reuniting as friends while having the same dream still that they made while younger.' as what the story presents itself as, will right away give off that vibe. Let alone just seeing them interact in general will spring 'Yuri thoughts' right away. No matter the story, it'll get pictured that way. even if they end up just as close friends, some will just see it that way. Hope I wrote this right cause had to redo it a few times lol.

Everything is fine, you are really right. People were so hyped by synopsis that in the future it launched a vicious circle. Now we can only guess how the show would be perceived if it didn't have such an ambiguous premsie.

You are correct as far as MAL is concern but on Anilist this show does have a Yuri tag.
https://anilist.co/anime/108092/Koisuru-Asteroid/
I wasn't just talking about picture there was this conversation

Plus Ao and Mira are childhood friends and there interaction gives off yuri vibes.
I think that Mira had a fillings for Ao ever since they were kinds, but the realization that Ao was a girl all along shocked her and made her question her sexuality and put her in the state of confusion cause she thought she liked a boy only to realized that she was in love with another girl at least that's my theory.

@Xstasy These tags are set by users and their relevance can be evaluated. Dubious argument. Personally, I prefer to focus on official resources and materials. None of them, as far as I know, position the work as yuri.

AND? It was quite random gay joke about that Suzu is very protective for MC and therefore negatively think about idea of her ​​communicating with boys. Since Ao is also a girl, Suzu suggests that such a relationship would not be dangerous for her naive friend. Yes, this is quite problematic humor, but the trope “I stop my friend from talking to guys to protect her” is a very common thing in anime and manga.

Speculation. She didn’t say anywhere and didn't mean romantic feelings for Ao, moreover, Suzu's gay jokes does not cause her a typical reaction of such tropes. In fact, all we have is an ambiguous premise, which initially leads people to a specific reading according to the “Observer Error”.

But then again, each of us has freedom of interpretation, so if you like it and you see it that way, then this is your choice. I may not agree with this, but I am not going to force you to accept my point of view.

keep an eye on Suzu, she could become jealous of Ao
because the little psychopathic reaction that Suzu had when talking to Mira, it is possible that she loves Mira with love

The fact that she "allowed" her to "date" with Ao refutes this point of view and says more that she is simply trying to protect her from negative experiences with guys. If you read Mira as a bisexual, then Ao is obviously main love interest, so if Suzu loved her, it is highly unlikely that she would approve this.

Some more reasons why I personally think this is a Yuri

Ao actually said before she called Mira!! My hair and body may have changed!! But my feelings!! So she clearly still have feelings for Mira

And after their little love talk both of the girls are just glowing in school and behaving like they are in love!! This is a Yuri with lesbian females

Picture below is when Mira is looking at Ao and commenting over how beautiful she is!! They are so cute!!!!

Lol, this show is very far from yuri bait giants like Symphogay. It is quite courageously to compare the suspicious premise and some yuri vibes with a show that openly jokes about the protagonist of the harem who does not notice other people's crush or has a psycho lesbian among side characters.

The fact that this guess doesn't mean that it cannot be just as premature and excessive. However, you have the right to guess everything you want.

Personally, I’m just tired of watching all this flame bait over the first episode of the new show.

How would you guys rate Mana x Sayu in https://myanimelist.net/anime/38009/Re_Stage_Dream_Days%E2%99%AA on your CGDCT vs yuri scale? If this show goes even that far, I'll be quite satisfied: Hugs, Bath, Sleepover.

If you watched more than 3-4 animes, then you are well aware that hugging, sharing a bath or sleeping is not something homoerotic or ambiguous for anime. I won’t even say that reading hugs as something gay is already beyond any fujoshi levels, or that many girls like to share a bath in real life. Well, otherwise you have to conclude that even the completely heterosexual Kaguya-sama and Fruits Basket are yuri. However, if for yuri fanboys it is "so far", then I begin to understand why so many shows get the label "yuri" without any real reason.

Re:Stage! Dream Days♪ are a Yuri/CGDCT/Idol

Mana and Sayu several times declare they have strong feelings for each other!!

They sleep in each others arms and a lot more!! Definitely lesbian females!! Its really good!! I love Idols and have seen a lot of them and that one is really strong overall in the Yuri!!

And in that picture they are awake and have talk about that they wanna be together!! Then they chose to fall asleep like that in each others arms!! My lesbians are so cute!!

Also after watching 2 episodes of Koisuru Asteroid im more convinced that is a Yuri. All the girls are flirting wildly! No males except some in the backgrounds!! And the way Ao and Mira communicate. Sending love love sms and more!! Even if one never can be a 100 percent sure until last episode have aired!!!But one of Doga Kobos biggest success are those Yuri/CGDCT. And they are a company that want to sell their product!! So I think they going to do what have been successful in the past

Mikage was convinced that Ao is a boy and went through such an extent effort to discover an asteroid for "him", which, according to the title, was in the name of love.
That's a big indicator that she is straight, but after the very shocking revelation, that Ao was a reverse trap, there is no sign of any romance anywhere in this show.

It's not yuri.

When she notices Ao was a girl she still went for her And wanted to discover an asteroid for her, So nothing has changed. And Ao even said she still has feelings for Mira

But this as many other CGDCT is not being very serious about it either, and rather use hinting/Yuri vibes than go full out

Even if the term Yuri mostly are used for lesbian romances in manga or anime. It also includes anime like this. So even if they don't romance it can still actually be considered as a Yuri

Yuri (Japanese: 百合, lit. "lily"), also known by the wasei-eigo construction girls' love (ガールズラブ, gāruzu rabu), is a genre of Japanese media focusing on intimate relationships between female characters. While lesbianism is a commonly associated theme, the genre is also inclusive of works depicting emotional and spiritual relationships between women that are not necessarily romantic or sexual in nature
