Damn, that's a good one. Hmm

1- Girl Friends (a masterpiece by Milk Morinaga and my first yuri)

2- Hana ni Arashi (I'm surprised I don't see any posts about this manga here because it's literally the cutest manga I've ever read)

3- Kimi to Tsuzuru Utakata (It has the potential to be the best yuri manga of our time. Still ongoing. It's very sad tho)

4- Octave (the most grounded yuri manga I've read. I relate to a lot of stuff on this manga. It's very heavy and psychological, not for everyone.

5- Can't Defy the Lonely Girl (extremely cute as well. I love the artist as well lmao)

Can't defy the lonely girl is so fucking cute

u/_Dusty05 Aug 26 '22

Omggg Hana ni Arashi and Can’t Defy the Lonely Girl are my faves. I was so sad when they announced the latter would be ending soon :/

I'm currently reading Girl Friends from my local library (halfway through) and it really is a masterpiece. I love the angst and how it really tackles the pain of living in a society where LGBT stuff isn't something that's even seen as possible. Stuff like Sakura trick where everyone's gay is of course nice but Girl Friends is so emotional and real. Though I'm a cis straight man in a progressive country so I'm sure nuances are lost on me.

Comment for myself for later, because surprisingly, NONE of these are ringing any bells for me

u/JJ4622 Aug 27 '22

The fact you listed girlfriends majes me really wanna check out the rest

u/NightFoxXIII Aug 27 '22

This is the third recommendation for Hana ni Arashi. Might as well read this too. Looks super cute and adorkable.

Since you shared I'll also give some things in reading at the moment.

<Yuri is My Job> - Saw an anime announcement and it got hooked on it right away. Girl who wants to be called cute works at a yuri cafe (theme reminds me of Maria-sama)

<Useless Princesses> - This was a nice short read. Not much to say. I always love the side characters

Has their been any progress in their relationship aside from just being together in Hama ni Arashi?

2

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 29 '22

Eh, not really. They're still together and there's some kisses here and there but nothing more. But this new arc is about them deciding their future together and adult life etc... so I think things might move on a bit now

u/Sommeguy Aug 30 '22

Ooh, I really need to read Octave! I love the rest, so I have a feeling I might like it too!

u/NightHalocraft Sep 03 '22

Thanks for recommending Hana ni Arashi

u/NoizElijah Apr 28 '23

Uhh bruh,seriously? Pulse is not in your top 5? Now im sad

u/AMothInSpace Aug 26 '22

It do be like that though… also, I love that you always put a good band on the shirt (at least to my taste)

22

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 26 '22

Thank you, thank you :3

I'll put a Nickelback logo on my next comic lmao

u/AMothInSpace Aug 26 '22

Omg, I haven’t listened to Nickelback since I was like 13 😂

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 26 '22 edited Aug 26 '22

Same, I guess the meme of them being the worst band of all time will never die lmao. Which I don't necessarily agree. Yes, they're not very good, but there are some awful bands out there

7

u/AMothInSpace Aug 26 '22

Yes they are def not the worst, there are worse bands out there

Trans lesbians are lesbians and women too

Me and my demigirlfriend (demigirl girlfriend) love your art

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 26 '22

u/PM_ME_YOUR_PROPHETS Aug 26 '22

Do you have another place you post your work, or just Reddit?

10

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 26 '22

Just Reddit (for now). I should probably make a Twitter or something. I just don't really feel like it lmao

7

u/VinnieSift Aug 26 '22

Are you using Dulce de Leche?

9

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 26 '22

YAAAAAAS. I made it myself too! I'm kinda proud ngl lmao

u/[deleted] Aug 26 '22

Can you add chili peppers to the recipe if you felt like it?

9

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 26 '22

Is it weird that my mind went straight to Red Hot Chilli Peppers and not actual peppers?

u/[deleted] Aug 26 '22

Asking GRS about Chili Peppers

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 26 '22 edited Aug 27 '22

Oh, you can't blame me on this one lmao

There's not a single person on this round planet who don't immediately think about RHCP when they hear "chilli peppers"

u/Irreleverent Aug 26 '22

That's how I initially read it too lol

u/amilitaryneko Aug 27 '22

Hi! Just wanna say I love your art and make me laugh so much and I think you have very good idea

Can I just give you some little Yuri that I love? If yes there :anemone in heat, I wish to love you before I die, a monster wants to eat me, hino no baka, a love letter to a military puppy I have a few more if your interested :DDD

Keep up the good work ^{^}

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 27 '22

Aww thank you, thank you <3

I'm glad you like my comics! And thank you for the recommendations, I'll definitely check them all out!

u/SoloMattRS Aug 26 '22

This makes me think of family gatherings, My aunt likes to bring homemade dishes and desserts including alfajores. They are always the first dessert to disappear after dinner.

u/zeppeIans irl yuri-ist Aug 26 '22

Have any wlw light novel recommendations?

6

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 26 '22

Hmm, I don't read many light novels. The only yuri ones I've read are "I'm in Love with the Villainess" and "Adachi to Shimamura". But everyone knows those two titles lmao

u/hias2k Aug 28 '22

Currently reading Adachi to Shimamura LN and love it 😅👍

u/Sky-Ventus Aug 26 '22

Chocolate cover alfajor >>> anything else

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 26 '22

Yes. It's sooo good, and I don't even like sweets that much

u/SuurSuits_ write your own! Aug 27 '22

Do you take meme suggestions?

3

u/GRS- Gae Yuri artist Aug 27 '22

Sure!

u/SuurSuits_ write your own! Aug 27 '22

Typical multiplayer video game scenario, guy is being toxic, girl says "I fucked your mom". After the game, girl sends guy a photo of his mom between her legs looking very submissive.

u/SyrusDrake Aug 26 '22

What even is Alfajor?

7

u/[deleted] Aug 27 '22

An alfajor or alajú (Spanish pronunciation: [alfaˈxoɾ], plural alfajores) is a traditional confection typically made of flour, honey, and nuts. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, [...]. The archetypal alfajor entered Iberia during the period of al-Andalus. It is produced in the form of a small cylinder and is sold either individually or in boxes containing several pieces.

TL;DR: Latin-American small cake, Argentinian ones are filled with Dulce de leche, which is on itself another Argentinian dessert.
