Talk:Yuri undertones

I think this belongs to Articles, no? - Prima 04:26, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Added. I'll also add a link on the articles page when there's no more placeholders. --Homerun-chan 09:07, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Spin-offs?

Just wondering, but should the spin-off manga get sections on here as well? There's plenty of yuri subtext to go around in those, especially Oriko Magica. --CrownClown 23:02, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

I guess we can make them into a subsection but we need to see alot of the materials and the manga is still running, so far I dont know if we have enough material to work on. --Mutopis 00:17, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Kazumi has it's share as well. Umika and Kaoru going out dating with... no one else, apparently; some "suspicious" hugs, etc. Speaking off, next chapter comes out tomorrow. To think that I'm going to have to update all the Kazumi pages.... bleh --BrickBreak 00:24, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

I remember the debates regarding this scene, some people interpreted the letter as Umika and Kaoru going on a date with guys and some yurifans went ape, until someone pointed out the cafe scene and there was no guys, then there were more debates with the anti-yuri saying maybe teh guys where on the bathroom etc... --Mutopis 03:30, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

That definitely falls under "yuri subtext", at least. The foe yay between Yuuri and Kazumi might, too, with all the manhandling the former does to the latter. --CrownClown 04:49, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Interview

I am not sure if I did justice to the interpretation of the interview, anyone is more than welcome to make changes to it. --Mutopis 21:35, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

I'm puzzled as to why that much of the interview had to be quoted. Most of the time, people have been referencing interviews to support their argument. I'm also not sure why you'd think Gen Urobuchi is only talking about the emotional aspect of relationships when neither are skirting from the topic of sexual relationships. In fact, Uno brought it up earlier in the interview with the topic of them not having sex by the legal definition of it and being able to have children. I made the editor's note to show he's saying they can't have sex by procreation essentially, not saying they can't have sexual relations...in fact, in wording the way he did and the context of the interview, it's clear that he isn't ruling out the possibility of them having non-procreative sex, which is what would happen between two women. Gen never refutes that but only continues on to discuss the nature of Homura and Madoka's relationship. In the part you have quoted, Urobuchi is then very clear that he considers the love of a heterosexual couple to be possible for a same sex couple, "whatever relationship that could exist between male and female, it should also exist between couples of same sex." By implication, that also refers to the sexual aspect of things. Nowhere does Gen state or suggest in the interview is he believes only an emotional relationship would happen between two people of the same sex (e.g. Homura and Madoka). The only difference he made in the interview was the difference in body parts, e.g. "Other than the involvement of penis in traditional sex definition, I don't believe a male/female relationship is more special nor unique compared to other relationships." Is that clear now? I'll go ahead and change the section. --randomanon 23:43, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

Which is why I wasnt sure if I was correct with the interpretation, I knew there was some confusion there... --Mutopis 23:54, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
