Yuri Light Novel About a Female Teacher and Student Sparks Controversy
With illustrations by Nekoyashiki Pushio, the second volume of A Story About a Married Teacher Who Becomes Obsessed With Her Female Student features new artwork emphasizing the bond between the teacher and her student, who are the main characters of the story.
The plot follows a married teacher who unexpectedly develops a close relationship with one of her students, who is ten years younger. As their connection deepens, they struggle with their emotions and circumstances.
The protagonist is aware of the complications her actions could bring but questions why she continues down this path despite the risks.
Public Reactions to the Light Novel
Opinions on this story are highly divided. After reading various comments, I noticed different perspectives.
Some readers consider the story acceptable because it portrays a relationship between two women, arguing that the age difference does not significantly impact the narrative. One notable comment came from someone admitting that if the teacher were a man, they would perceive the novel differently—but since both characters are women, they view the story in another light.
On the other hand, some yuri fans disapprove of the age gap between the characters and criticize the premise. Other readers find it interesting how the protagonist struggles with her emotions and moral dilemmas.
However, not everyone shares this perspective. Many readers criticize the teacher’s behavior, preferring stories without such conflicts. On Novel Updates, this controversial yuri light novel holds a 3.7 rating, with 27% of the reviews being the lowest possible score.
