Girls' love / Yuri

Uh, what is that? Contextless link isn't helpful. Especially when you can't read the title.

The title is literarlty in the video, including the english one in description.

Oh, I was planning to read that. Might go do that later.

Uh, only familiar with the manga version, but there's several horny lesbians in the cast, the main character kinda returns the affections of one of them, and I've seen the series described as a yuri battle harem. It is not class S

I'll get back to you on the first volume of the LN tonight.

Embedded trailer for Vexations Of A Shut-In Vampire Princess. Warnings for nudity and pervert maids.

Okay, haven't read the entire first volume just yet, but everything here is shaping up to be your standard harem genre thing. Only with more lesbians.

Hot damn those animators are horny.

Not as horny as the maid is.

So, I finished volume 1. It's really more of your standard fantasy action-comedy thing, it's just most of the physical perversion is girl-girl stuff (there's one guy that's way too into her, but I don't think Terakomari has noticed).

It's not super exceptional writing or standout or anything, but I think it's entertaining enough. Might pick up v2 soon.

Just from a casual glance, it seems like one of those works where you must be this horny to work here.

I've heard of Vexations Of A Shut-In Vampire Princess, but I never really checked it out since, at the time, I hadn't heard any confirmation of it being yuri. I might check it out when I have time and have finished up more of the books in my current backlog.

Basically the Maid, the Empress and one of her competing Lords are all into her.

Finished the first volume of I’m In Love with the Villainess.

Really loving this so far. It’s not just that Rae is entirely devoted to Claire, she’s actively changing Claire’s role in the story by giving her understading and making her better sides come out. That’s beautiful. The whole political conflict between nobles and commoners might put a wedge between them eventually, or Rae might decide that she actually cares and convince Claire to take the commoners’ side… or the other way round, but that would surprise me. I like the layer it adds to the story at any rate − "if you don’t care about politics, politics will take care of you", as they say.

I was a bit more skeptical about the Orceaus’ subplot, as the incestuous relationship between Renne and Lambert seemed to come out of nowhere. Or maybe I just didn’t pay attention. It’s really tragic though, as Renne was a great comedic partner for Rae to bounce off. And the "brainwashing session" to get everyone to grasp the servant spirit was absolutely hilarious. Anyway, the last scene of the volume had me tear up a little bit, not gonna lie. That illustration of Rae holding Claire from behind while the latter finally lets the tears run was perfect.

The postscript was interesting too − knowing that the author is gay herself puts some aspects of the story under a new light.

PS: By the way, I love Claire to bits but there’s no way a kid who’s barely 4 years old can be perfectly fluent in two languages, come on.

I am still hesitant to read the vol. 3 (have it purchased long time ago). Volume 2 had such a great ending, so I am not sure where things will go.

Not unrealistic. Every 4 year old kid knows at least two languages: whatever their parents speak, and glossolalia.

Is it? I'm sure there's some comparative study of bilingualism around somewhere.

Well, it's better to start them out early, but who knows when they can actually speak it with any fluency.

Four year olds can't even speak one language fluently.

That said, babies are really good at language acquisition. It's kinda what they're built for.

You can be bilingual at 8 months.

iirc doesn't speaking fluidly mean you just don't have to stop and think about what you're trying to say? It's not quite the same thing as being good at the language, it just means that you speak quickly.

Sort of getting off topic here, folks.

Yeah my standards for the word "Fluent" are really high I don't consider most adults fluent in the only language they speak.

Listen don't bring up misinformation about development to someone with an Early Childhood Development background.

Anyways I'm sad I have to wait until October to watch the anime. I Favor the Villainess was a better title tho.

A bit too downplayed, I can see why they went with this.

Yeah, "oshi" indicates a longing deeper than just "favoring" from what I know.

Now the title is also slightly misleading since Claire isn’t the villain in any shape or form in this version of the story.

Apparently, some new mecha GL OVA is being streamed for free on YT with English subs till August 31st. I am concerned with pretty unknown VA staff, but lets's see it:
