@Moonpearl Hello! o/ I'm thinking about giving yuri another go again. Do you have any recommendations (preferably manhwas or mangas with cute art like Tamen De Gushi)? Mm...I'm not what you can call a yuri fan since I'm more into girl best-friendships (with yuri undertones) like Tomodachi no Hanashi (one of my favs!) but heck, I like pretty girls myself so why not XD
@iampsyx I don't think I know anything cute with the Tamen de Gushi art style, but the "Kase-san..." series has cute art and a similar fluffy plotline. Actually, I prefer "Kase-san..." myself. You'll have to be patient with it, though - the art is really wonky for the first couple of chapters. It can be read here: https://dynasty-scans.com/series/kase_san
Tamen de Gushi is pretty all-round popular, even with people who don't like much yuri. Another one like that is "Mage & Demon Queen". It's a fantasy based on RPGs, so it's not similar in plot, but it's full of humour like Tamen. You can read it here: https://www.webtoons.com/en/fantasy/mage-and-demon-queen/list?title_no=1438
Since you like yuri undertones, you might like the classic yuribait "Maria-sama ga Miteru". It's an extremely long-running drama series set in an all-girl's school with a surprisingly gripping plot. I don't think either the manga or novels are still being translated, but you can read roughly five manga volumes here: https://dynasty-scans.com/series/maria_sama_ga_miteru
The rpg elements in Mage & Demon Queen was fun, and I loved the MC + bff's friendship. I realized that a busty and tsun onee-san as a love interest isn't my cup of tea tho...I'm much more into...hmmm...pretty, cute or cool ones? Like Not So Shoujo Love Story! Hanna's so pretty waaaaah The colored special reminded me of Tamen De Gushi > w <
I think I'll like Maria-sama too. The setting is interesting and I do love some plot in my romance. The "atmosphere" is somewhat heavier than the usual school story manga as well which is new. Hopefully there'll be antagonists? It'll be disappointing if all the students were perfect little angels.
I did say that I was a beginner so no worries, I haven't read any of these before. XD I did hear about Maria-sama somewhere before but I stayed away from yuri ever since I watched Strawberry Panic thinking it was another cute shoujo. Color young me surprised and hopelessly confused when there came these people who looked like ikemen in skirts but sounded like girls lololol.
@iampsyx I'm glad you like them~! I haven't gotten far enough into Maria to know if there are any antagonists, but I feel like it wouldn't have 34+ novels if it didn't use that plot at some point.
XD Ah, I do love Strawberry Panic. Such an over-the-top yuri, but it's enjoyable for that reason.
