What's the reason behind yuri genre's popularity?

So? What is it?

Is it not?

Ok, what's with yuribait being popular then?

>popular
>yuri

It's always been popular

Easy, people who enjoy anime with no story other than "cute girls doing cute things"

Why do you think idolshit, GuP and K-On is so popular?

Sex hair

I always thought yaoi was way more popular, but I may be wrong.

But idolshit and GuP have stories.

Well, it's porn. Don't really know what to say.

Let me tell you something about Yuri.

To begin with, girls as the main audience of Yuri love this genre simply because it is cute. It's no more complicated than that. I cannot even imagine the scene of a boy watching Yuri in real life because that would look so awkward. Some of you really need to get out of your basement to get rid of such unreasonable bias.
Yet Yuri doesn't stop at just being cute. the reason why Yuri is the most ideal form of love Mankind can possibly offer is because it is both aesthetically and psychologically appealing. Most Yuri don't even involve sex - as many of the shallow-minded animals in this thread may think - because sex is nothing but a decoration compared to real love - the love concerning the beauty of the body and soul in a fictional world of eternal peace.
Yuri itself may seem simple, but it is the key to illustrate the ultimate Utopia imaginable, the highest of which human art can bring. The world of utter beauty, the world of freedom, cannot be reached without Yuri.
Underage faggots brainwashed by the society fail to understand love without stereotypes. The shallow culture with the name of "Romance" has deprived their souls, making them believe that such thing is somehow the truth they should follow, even in anime. Real art, however, is far deeper than Hollywood movies.
Boys can be good, but they're not made for love. Shows like JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is a good example where you should put boys in.
If you truly love someone, you want him/her to be beautiful, and the world around to be beautiful. But some people understand love only as sex, as a means toward meaningless reproduction.

If an anime girl is to be perfect she has to have good taste, and with that she has to like girls.

No, they don't. Cute girls doing cute things isn't a story.

As someone who's never been interested in yuri and has only last week discovered yuri romance manga, I guess it's cute. There's a sweetness to it that I haven't really seen in traditional romance, and a kind of forbidden fruit vibe. I don't know. It doesn't really matter since I've discovered there are only a couple of decent ones in the whole genre, but there's something about it that's appealing.

Guys like watching girls fuck. Girls like watching girls fuck.

>mfw there is definitive proof of children watching Pornhub

>fidget spinner

t. hasn't watched GuP, K-on or any significant amount of idolshit

Are you implying Shiki and Fred are lesbians?

>girls practicing tank warfare as a sport
>girls singing at concerts
Maybe a very shallow story, but this type of anime appeals to a certain low level audience.

>Girls like watching girls fuck.
yeah, but only lesbians

>Not realizing that a certain subsection of women are the ones who'll go to pornhub for anything
>Not realizing that women will go to porn hub for that one thing pop a few off then leave later
user, that there are a lot of lesbians or closet bi chicks going to pornhub to pop one off doesn't mean that they are the majority or even a minority of a minority.

It's cute and it makes my heart go doki doki.

i liek girls and not like diks

What do you even get out of being this stupid

do you think yuri needs more fat couples?

I like self inserting as a cute anime girl but I'm not a faggot.

At no point in time was I suggesting a majority of women like watching girls fuck

1 + 1 = 2
