Has the Era of Yuri Anime Arrived?
Is the moment for yuri anime finally here? This is a genre that for a long time didn’t have many animes, with just a few scattered here and there, but it seems that in recent years the number of productions has increased so much that fans are starting to wonder what’s going on.
Just yesterday, we had another yuri anime announced, Watanare, which is a comedy anime that seems quite fun, but fans noticed that we have 5 yuri animes announced!
Has the Era of Yuri Anime Arrived?
We now have a total of 5 yuri animes announced! “So many yuri animes have been announced? What’s going on?” asked a fan while sharing the image below with the announcements so far:
We have 5 premieres and 1 return with the second season of the magical girls anime being dominated in Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete. Besides that, the following have also been announced:
Watashi ga Koibito ni Nareru Wake Nai jan, Muri Muri
About two girls who become friends at school, one wants them to be a couple, while the other just wants to be friends, and then one tries to convince the other what’s best.
Watashi wo Tabetai, Hitodenashi
This is about a mermaid named Shiori who promises to “eat” the student Hinako, who has a body considered “delicious” for monsters. The mermaid then starts to protect Hinako so she can one day eat her.
Hana wa Saku, Shura no Gotoku
This one is not classified as yuri on MAL, but do the Japanese consider it yuri? I don’t know much about the story, but it’s about two friends who attend the same club.
The other animes in the image are Tai-Ari deshita.: Ojousama wa Kakutou Game nante Shinai, which is about girls who enjoy playing fighting games, and Amayo no Tsuki, which is about two girls who become friends, one of them has a hearing problem, and the other likes music.
Let’s see how the Japanese reacted to this yuri era?
- So happy with the great harvest of yuri anime!
- “Hana Shura” is not yuri…
- The yuri era has really arrived!!!
- Yuri is not really for me, personally.
- We are literally in the era of yuri anime warriors.
- The yuri genre has few anime. But next year, there will be many yuri anime airing on TV, and I’m really happy. I’m looking forward to it!
- This is so amazing.
- “Watashi wo Tabetai Hito de Nashi” is really happening?!??!?!
- Ahh, what joy.
- Finally, this era has arrived.
- I can’t stop smiling. Oh, hohoho.
- With this pace, I hope the second season of “Tenten” and the adaptation of “Kitakawa” also happen.
Which of these yuri animes are you most excited to watch? I’ve watched a few, and for me, Strawberry Panic remains the best yuri anime I’ve ever seen.
