The best one out there. I prefer them because generally speaking most (but not all) of the relationships seem to be more equal, and less possessive. There also usually isn't all the shallow oogling like in shonen romances, nor the near-rape scenes by the studley slutty male lead like in most shoujo stuff. Overall it seems to be more romantic and I guess "pure" in my eyes because they usually fall in love for personalities and not looks as well, and tend to just take better care of each other.

Actually IRL Yaoi, Boy Love is generally more pure which is kinda ironic considering how those a generally shown in works like thse, namely that the relationship is not really equal but with a clear "Seme" and "Uke", one on top/dominant and one below/submissive.

In fictional Yuri this is less prevalent and the roles are blured and flexible

IRL Lesbian Couples tend to perform, let's just say.... "less pure" sexual practices and those roles tend to influence their daily lives as well. On the contrary gay couples tend to have a more platonic relationship which is not all about sex.

Most certainly not all Lesbian couples are like this and Gay couple like that, Lesbian couples can naturally be like that and Gay couples like this, hence why I just keep dreaming about females being all lovey-dovey with each other for all eternity (yeah, my least favorite, most disliked genre is indeed Yaoi but not because of how the relationships are shown is totally influenced by the female community, just ain't into men)

Sadly I suppose that Class Zenin Maji de Yuri?! ~Watashi-tachi no Rezu Oppai wa Anata no Mono Joshi Zenin Shiofuki Keikaku~ would not be on Steam even if it was translated... and I rather not translate the title. It's hilariously cute (and ecchi).

It's because Japanese people are perverted ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and can't write actual romance.. Only between 2 girls. But it's not because it's better than any other possibility, it's because Japanese people are just bad at writing actual romantic stuff.

That's the reason I hate "romantic" stuff that Japanese make.. Because the quality of it is worse than Twilight. Yes, I said it. And yes, I mean it.



I've seen lot's of good Japanese stuff I LOVE. But they are not romantic (and not sexual either), because they suck at those things.
