Preliminary (13/? eps)
Very original concept.
Kokoro sees two women/girls together, sketches their love story after her imagination and afterwards we get to see a glimpse of the women's actual realities.

Each of the short stories (both the daydreams and the reality afterwards) are very interesting; I'm honestly surprised some of these haven't been used for a stand-alone or a whole manga series. (or they have and I just don't know about it.)

Preliminary (19/? eps)
The cute, shoujo art style is a trojan horse - this manga gets HEAVY. But the tone of patriarchal horror is balanced well with slice of life comedy. The serialized story alternates by chapter with an anthology of twists on familiar yuri stories, which give welcome breaks from the drama of the overarching plot.

Yuri Espoir showcases the suffocating disempowerment of patriarchy inflicted on young girls and how well intentioned men can still perpetuate this power structure, even through inaction. Without spoiling anything, the primary antagonist, Kokoro's fiancé, is a well written and interesting take on a sexist man thus far. The banality of his ...
