!!The In-Between

* ''Manga/DestinyOfTheShrineMaiden'': The anime adaptation was among the first openly yuri televised series, which dared to declare the love between the two main girls was real (even having the heroine reject her male childhood friend) and highly influential on all that followed. However, the series has not aged well in many respects; it is often seen as heavy-handed and confusing, the attempted mixing of yuri with mecha action does not work with some viewers, and most controversially, the central relationship between Himeko and Chikane has been condemned by modern yuri fans as toxic. In particular, the show breaks Rule #1 in the ending and ''infamously'' breaks Rule #3 earlier, which caused Chikane to plunge into UnintentionallyUnsympathetic territory for some viewers. The series might be worth looking at for inspiration, but with care taken to avoid the problems that turned some fans away.

* ''Anime/{{ICE}}''. The yuri feels tacked-on, and yet the plot and setting feel like they were mutilated to accommodate it. In any case, it manages to blend ClicheStorm and MindScrew and should not be emulated.

* As been mentioned above, there aren't many ScienceFiction yuri mangas, so why not try your hand at Girls Love [-IN SPACE!-] (well, not ''literally'' in space) or ''Anime/{{Macross}}'' [-WITH LESBIANS!-]? An aspiring {{Starfighter}} AcePilot is taken POW by a GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe enemy captain but accidentally freed by a wacky [[SpacePirate Space]] PirateGirl. PlanetaryRomance [[LoveAcrossBattlelines Across Battlelines]] ensues. Or opt instead for a more ''Franchise/StarTrek'' plot or ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'' [[note]]Though that one might be redundant with the existence of ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamTheWitchFromMercury'', which, while not classified as a yuri, still features a main lesbian romance[[/note]] or what have you. ''Literature/IlivaisX'' or ''Anime/{{Iczer}}'' are examples on this wiki you can look for.

The original yuri mangas of TheSeventies were all targeted at the [[{{Shoujo}} Shoujo demographic]], but the genre has since expanded to appeal to older demographics of {{Seinen}} and {{Josei}}, as well. {{Shonen}} yuri is nigh non-existent, owing to the demographic's traditional disinterest in relationships.
