Manga 'Akuma no Riddle' to be Animated

The character designs look great! I'm also quite a fan of yuri, so definitely watching this.

Mai-HiME did suck but I would much rather have a Mai HiME 2 (not counting Mai Otome) than a Mirai Shitty 2.

Will edit this post when the "last page" error is overcome, lol.

Hehe, this feels like my first time actually posting on here. Big yuri fan here, and I'd just like to say this anime looks really nice in terms of its art and I'm curious about the story. Lesbian assassins (yay yuri version of Battle Royale and Mirai Nikki that doesn't suck like Mai-HiME XD) sound good to me.

The only peeve of mine is the fact that I'm not familiar with the author's work since I never bothered reading/watching Loveless. I don't like shonen ai very much and when I read the plot there was a shotacon warning popping up for me and my friend said it was a little too creepy for her, a yaoi tard even. Though it did have a nice lesbian couple, and I won't lie to myself that Yamato and Kouta look hot in art I've seen of them if not also rather angsty.

Either way, I suppose that Yun Koga and that other guy know what they're doing and won't screw this up. Perhaps I should read what's been released of the manga and see every other yuri that came out before in the next five months lol (I still haven't seen Nanoha, Simoun, Sasameki and Aoi Hana since they were the last 'true yuri' to come out back in the day, and my only experience with 'true' yuri outside of Kannazuki no Miko, Utena, Re: Cutie Honey, Mnemosyne, Candy Boy and Yuru Yuri etc. is sparse...hell, those shows don't even fully count as yuri because of the mecha/magical girls/psychology/other batshit stuff/fanservice/cyberpunk guro/fluff but don't see next step in relationship/cute lesbians acting blatantly lesbian according to the experts XD). Pfft, as long as I get my lesbians I'm HAPPY dammit!

So yeah, this and Sakura Trick should make 2014 a good year for yuri. Here's to hoping season 3 of Yuru Yuri and the new Sailor Moon anime gives us good stuff. I'm also looking into Coppellion and Kill la Kill coming out this October, hoping they'll have some good stuff between the girls too. :3

Assassins, yuri, beautiful art...? You had me at hello!

I don't mind the premise at all. Not expecting this show to be deep, just full of awesome action and yuri.

This looks retarded (story wide) but the art seems amazing and it'll be yuri. I'm hyped.

@symbv Actually, my copy was downloaded from the link kuuurt provided a few posts ago. Thanks for your help!

@nai808
If you could PM me a link to the Chapter 0, then I can help check the translation. Thanks.

Did somebody say they wanted a translation? Here's one from yours truly from Chapter 0:


And I'll try to translate the rest of the volume as well. If there are any mistakes, please don't hesitate to point them out since I'm still learning! I can't make any guarantees abou the accuracy either since I've never received any formal instruction in Japanese. :P
It'd be nice if somebody could scanlate it...

just found out about this..
new yuri anime is on the way!
i'ma cry tears of happiness *A*

Hopefully someone is willing to translate it.

They couldn't make it possibly more gayer.
Then they announced that the director of Nanoha will be doing this.

Looks so nice!

I can't get over how delightful the combination of action and yuri sounds. I'm probably being too optimistic.

This keeps looking better and better.

Yuri? Say no more.... *adds to watch list*

The official English name sounds terrible, but that key visual looks badass. Anime entry soon?
