| Manga or Anime, anything is acceptable as long as it's underrated or not well known. I'm recommending Prism, a manga that has been cancelled due to the authors copyright issues from 2012. After reading it I have to say its so Good that it's a waste for it to get cancelled 6 chapters in.  |
| Sakura Trick, Citrus, Miss Kobayashi Dragon Maid, Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica, YuruYuri, Yuru Camp, Yagate Kimi ni Naru… just some of the better ones I've seen ^^ |
| i haven't seen anyone reccomend the sasameki koto manga! its one of my favorites and there's an anime but the relationship doesn't go super far in the anime. and the manga has 55 chapters. |

| 1. Flip Flappers! It's criminally underrated as an anime in general, and the yuri in it is awesome. Essentially it's about two girls who go on adventures to bizarre parallel worlds together. It's a really different sort of show, I think a lot of people wrote it off when it was airing as just a sort of random silly magical girl thing, but trust me, the show is so well put together and there's a ton of depth to it if you really want to dig. It's my favorite anime, I've watched it three times, and it kills me how underappreciated it is. 2. Noir. This one is kinda old (2001), and it shows its age pretty clearly at some points. I don't think it had a very big budget either, which is especially apparent from the reuse of one particular flashback scene many, MANY times. Despite this, this anime is still a classic, one that was well-known and respected at its time but seems to have been rather forgotten in the modern day. It's about a team of two female assassins and their quest to unravel the mysteries of their pasts, basically. The reason I'm recommending it here is that the relationship between the two female leads is outstanding. Their interactions are very deep and there are a lot of dramatic moments between them. (Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention: despite it being a show about contract assassins, there's almost no blood or gore in the whole show. Apparently they were trying to get around some pretty strict censorship at the time. I'm not going to say that it's not super weird to see guys get shot and fall down with no blood or visible wounds, because it is, but once you look past it and a few other issues, it's a really good show with fantastic characters.) |

| My recommendation is Strawberry Panic it's a very sweet loving Yuri anime, but if you really want something hot I recommend Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid. Strawberry Panic: The plot of Strawberry Panic! revolves around the lives of the adolescents who attend one of three affiliated all-girl schools which share a campus and dormitories. The schools are: St. Miator's Girls' Academy, St. Spica's Girls' Institute, and St. Lulim's Girls' School. There are twelve characters the story revolves around, four at each school. The story's main character is Nagisa Aoi, a young girl entering her fourth year at St. Miator after being transferred from another school. On first entering the campus grounds, she is overcome with joy by the overall appearance of the surrounding area, but her joy is soon turned to sorrow as she accidentally stumbles down a hill, causing her to be lost and disoriented. While walking around the grounds trying to work out where she is, Nagisa comes across an older student named Shizuma Hanazono, who happens to be Astraea Hill's Etoile, a very important person who acts as a representative between the different schools and has specific duties that she must fulfill. Nagisa is instantly overcome by Shizuma's beauty, and after Shizuma kisses her on the forehead, Nagisa loses consciousness and awakens in the school's infirmary. In an adjacent chair is another girl of the same age, Tamao Suzumi, who informs her that they are to be roommates in the dormitory. Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid: Each of the series revolves around girls who have been infected with a mysterious virus known as the A Virus (Armed Virus). These girls are divided into two classes; Extars (エクスター, Ekusutā), who can transform into weapons when sexually aroused, and Liberators (リブレイター, Ribureitā), who have the power to wield an Extar's weapon form, known as Liberator Arms, through a process known as Drive. These girls are brought to separate islands to spend their days completely isolated from the rest of the world until the islands' Observers, authorized by the government Organisation AAA, ostensibly deem them ready to rejoin society again. Both are really good recommendations, I would probably start with Strawberry Panic because the story and the plot is truly amazing. They even made a video game. lol |

| @JukeLawl I use animepahe.com, it's the best anime site that I know of right now. It has pretty much everything that KissAnime does (including Strawberry Panic), and the general video quality is much better. There are popup ads, but the ads are not as intrusive as on KissAnime, and the video seems to load better as well. The only site that I've ever found that I liked better was masterani.me, but it got shut down, RIP. |
| @vivi-chan_ I read Fragtime last night, it was okay. I didn't much care for how the story progressed in the last third or so, but it was interesting. |
| There were a lot of good anime I didn't include in my original recommendations, so here are some more: Revolutionary Girl Utena is almost required viewing for any serious yuri fan IMO. Even if the actual yuri falls a bit short, it's a seminal work for the genre, and definitely worth checking out. The story is highly allegorical, which I'm a big fan of, and I love the classic shoujo artstyle. There's also a movie, Revolutionary Girl Utena: Adolescence Apocalypse, which you don't necessarily need to have seen the anime to get, since it's a different canon; so if a 39 episode series sounds like a bit too much commitment to you, you could watch the movie first to get your feet wet. Be forewarned, though, the movie is around the same level of mindfuckery as the End of Evangelion. Princess Principal is about a team of all-female spies set in a steampunk version of London. The relationship between the two female leads is deeply romantic in a way that you don't often see in yuri anime, and we're supposedly getting six original movies in the coming years. Here's hoping they deliver on all of them. Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid is an excellent fantasy slice-of-life anime where one of the two female main characters is explicitly and adorably in love with the other one. The animation is quite beautiful, and the themes of family and belonging are heartwarming. Girls' Last Tour is sorta a post-apocalyptic slice-of-life (pretty unique right?), with some deeper philosophical elements added in. The yuri undertones are decent, and it's a good anime all around. ...That's all for now I guess. |
JukeLawl said: I guess you're right about Dragon Maid, I kinda forgot the recommendations were supposed to be for underrated and lesser known stuff lol. Then again, even shows like Bloom into You and Strawberry Panic aren't that well known as a whole, just mainly within the yuri community, so people who are new to yuri still may not have heard of them.ShinyKing said: There were a lot of good anime I didn't include in my original recommendations, so here are some more: Revolutionary Girl Utena is almost required viewing for any serious yuri fan IMO.

Once again, great job for these recommendations The title that intrigued me the most is Revolutionary Girl Utena, which i will try and watch it sooner or later! Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid is a good "soft" yuri, but in my opinion, it is more praised than underrated in this genre |
JukeLawl said: I physically own the first volume, morning glories. I have to say its more oriented towards the audience that like sweet romance, almost no ecchi but its good, i like it so far This is a good one. I just read Asegao to Kase-san and the (still ongoing) sequel/reboot Yamada to Kase-san. Some of the cutest stuff I've seen so far, definitly recommend checking it out. Also, if you like the the Bloom Into You / Yagate Kimi ni Naru anime you have to read the manga to get the other half of the story. The happy ending is really satisfying and made me cry a bit. |
| Hanjuku Joshi is a great read, but it might be hard to find a site online that as it. Other then that, I can recommend stuff like Tachibanakan Triangle or YuriCam which are pretty great in their own rights and are easier to find online~^^ In terms of anime, there's the more obvious ones like WataTen and/or Yuru Yuri which are more light, and then there's the "darker" titles like Citrus and/or Shoujo Sect~^^ |
   |
| I'm not sure if anyone's recommended it yet or not, but the Kase-san And series are a great read for beginners venturing into the genre for the first time, even though it's also a good read for those who are used to the genre. It starts off kinda slow but does get kinda fast quickly too, with the 5th volume having them all already graduated from HS (though I suppose if I were to compare it to another series like Futaribeya, which has them graduate in the fourth volume, this series is slower..:/). Also, the art is very clean despite the fact the original volumes were essentially doujins before they got published in book formats. The reason why I'd recommend this to a beginner venturing into the genre of Yuri for the first time might be because the Yuri parts are few and far between in the first few volumes, with increasing amounts of intensiveness by the volume. So, if you like Yuri series that start slow but have an actual solid romance going on, then I'd recommend this book for you~! :) |

I think its worth it to check it out Also MariChan, i deleted your duplicated reply. I see. :) But I'll probably check it out online since it's already released on the sites I check~!^^ |

JukeLawl said: Klefki_of_Awsome said: I see. :) But I'll probably check it out online since it's already released on the sites I check~!^^ You wont find it :P It releases in Japan in May 13th. Probably will take about a week after that to get into the pirates hands and get subbed Nvr mind, I thought it was streamed online, but I can't find it anymore..>.> |
|
I really thought there was one though..:/ Well, hopefully someone will stream it (it's not pirating if it's on a legal streaming site, btw.. >.>) |

I don't know how to do that, lol~^-^' |

OK, but that doesn't really tell me much, haha~^^' |

JukeLawl said: Its a complicated process In non technical language, BitTorrent is a program that you can use to download Torrents that people uploaded and are supporting with their own upload speed. In other words BitTorrent acts as a server, transferring the data online to whichever BitTorrent Client Requests them. Nyaa.si acts as a Torrent Directory, targeted at finding Anime Torrents and other Japanese stuff. From books, games, all the way to TV and Anime series. Its illegal in some countries because copyrighted content goes around for FREE, but BitTorrent acts like a middleman, it does not share the files itself, the users do. Ah, OK, I get it now, thanks~!^^ |

GinHiver said: newbie here ^^ although all my recommend don't have the yuri or shoujo ai tag but most of these focus on female characters 1. Bang Dream: this is a rhythm game, there is a 3 season anime for this game, 2 season side story (1 completed and 1 is airing) 2. Shoujo Kageki Starlight Revue: i don't know this one start in what form but there exist an anime season, some stageplay perform by the seiyuu, and a gacha game With 1 and 2: both of this come from Bushiroad (LL franchise) so the music are great and there are many show to follow if by chance you got in love with the seiyuu instead of the character 3. Centaur no nayami: orriginally this one is a manga, its got anime adaptation in 2017. There are male character in this but the spotlight belong to the girl 4. Girls und panzer: cute girls riding tank, firing shell 5. Haifuri: another series with cute girls but they are on battleship 6. World Witches series: consist of Strike Witches, Brave Witches, Luminous Witches,..... there are some married girls in this one (about 3 or 4 in like more than 20 characters but there husbands are all gone) 7. Uma musume: character base on racing horse (i remember that cygame make a game for this series) 8. Choujigen Game Neptune: cute girl in 2D world (i don't know how to explain this) 9.
