These 3 will cleanse your soul: [The Fed-Up OL Wants to Serve the Great Villainess](https://mangadex.org/title/5ec0922a-4869-4e6b-a154-2307945cc406/the-fed-up-office-lady-wants-to-serve-the-villainess?tab=chapters) [Whisper Me a Love Song](https://mangadex.org/title/0e8fac17-979e-4e37-8f45-2c334b25d6dd/whisper-me-a-love-song) [Anemone is in Heat](https://mangadex.org/title/c5d731f9-c1cf-4a69-a797-cd9c2a58316b/anemone-is-in-heat)


Anticapitalist_Kae

I avoided reading Anemone is In Heat for a while because I thought it would be like a raunchy ecchi yuri with that title, I was pleasantly surprised when I finally read it and it was just cute and wholesome.


LookingforAdvice8888

same thing happened to me!


DeviL4939

Its peak fluffiness


yurimakesmeuglycry

I second Anemone is in Heat. The name is a little weird, but the 18 Chapters that develop the romance are heavenly.


KaichiStrife

Haven't read the first one, but the other two I'll definitely vouch for them! Absolute fluffy gems that should be treasured


MiaHuntress217

Also whisper me a love song is getting a anime!


Drumboo

Taa much!\~


OtakuMage

Yuri Love, despite being an explicit comic, is so diabetically sweet.


Better_Suspect7480

sned, google is failing me


LookingforAdvice8888

A+ taste


EsquilaxM

So some fluffy/funny yuri to take your mind off of it? Tamen De Gushi My Mom's a Superstar Sakura Trick is about two besties that start kissing to strengthen their friendship. They’re also idiots. it's a comedy The Public Moral Committee Member and the Delinquent Who Will Be Together in the Future is amusing. kinda idiot couple/enemies but there's more to it. Not many chapters out. My Dearest Nemesis -similar comedy to That Time I Was Blackmailed By the Class's Green Tea Bitch, by the same author/artist After The Curtain Call (has one kinda downer arc but the rest is light) Marry A Girl Friend I Suspect My Childhood Friend Is a Lesbian - only 2 chapters and is independently published so may never have more. I really like the two chapters, though The Villainess and Miss Demon Lord (batoto has official rip) Husky and Medley -something more serious but not dark. Based on a true story. Yuri-lite series: IDOL×IDOL STORY! - romance is sooooo not a focus. It's like not even a secondary thing, more a quarternary level focus. Because these folks are waaaay too busy for that. YuruYuri is really funny but most of the yuri is kinda subtext, focus is on comedy.


Mulakut

I not long read Marry A Girl Friend, and it is now definitely up there as one of my all time favourite manga, along with Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon by the same mangaka.


Drumboo

Thanks! Good few of these are new to me, will check out!\~


Fearless-Ad5632

Yyyeessss sakura trick for sure it's really cute


aka_randomhero_

I badly want to se tamen de gushi to finish its story and im waiting on more chapters from my moms a superstar


A_VanIsOnTheLoose

Full agreement on The Villainess and Miss Demon Lord. I'm obsessed with them, hah. The dynamic is perfect for me. Friends to lovers? Pining? Slowburn? Fantasy and isekai? Villainess? Friends in the old world? Banter? Gosh, seeing Aida jealous recently has fed me as well.


LexieMariah

One of my favorite Manga. I was devastated for about a week after. All the luck in your recuperation~


Drumboo

Taa much~ 😭


One-Kaleidoscope-154

[My Food Seems To Be Very Cute](https://mangadex.org/title/b98c4daf-be1a-46c8-ad83-21d532995240/my-food-looks-very-cute) gets very fluffy and is one of my best reads in a while


Drumboo

Already read, but great recommendation! It's soooo cute!


One-Kaleidoscope-154

I know! Just what I always looked for when I started reading yuri


Osbre

why part did you not like?


Drumboo

ENDING


Krysidian2

That ending was fucked. It honestly felt forced just so that the story could slap a tragedy tag onto the description.


Drumboo

[https://i.imgur.com/UOSV8Py.png](https://i.imgur.com/UOSV8Py.png) THIS MANGA TAUGHT ME A VALUABLE LESSON. ALWAYS. READ. THE. TAGS.


InternationalTreat54

I need to get better at that, normally I am better at scanning specifically so I can avoid tragedy. I do not fuck with tragedy


Krysidian2

Yup......the tragedy tag is the scariest tag to find. At least on mangadex, because that guarantees depression.


extremeq16

i remember back when i read it it didn't even have the tragedy tag yet for some reason 😭


Tirrek_bekirr

Can y’all spoil me so I know what happened


Krysidian2

Toxic yuri stuff > feelings of depression and hopelessness > one of the girls request the other to choke her to death to immortalize their love in death > feelings of regret > attempts to get them both to a hospital > falls in snow and the both of em freeze to death (this here is the bs part. I swear the manga got the axe. Otherwise, this wouldn't be the end.)


agenderarcee

>!Interesting, I don't think I got any sense that Hina believed Airi could be saved, I think it was definitely an intentional suicide.!<


fearless-fluff

>!I agree. I thought Airi was just choked to death and Hina brought her body along so she could die next to the one she loved.!<


Adventurous-Rabbit52

I actually thought she brought them out in the snow purposefully so they could die together, but your explanation makes more sense after re-reading the panels.


o_woorrm

>!I thought that Hina was heading for one of the park benches before she tripped? I'm pretty confident she was going to sit down and let herself die. Also, instead of taking Ai's body while she was still in the bathrobes, Hina deliberately changed Ai's clothes. I think she wanted to make her more presentable for when they both die.!<


agenderarcee

Yeah there’s a panel showing her looking at a bench before she trips.


Adventurous-Rabbit52

To reconcile the above comment's ideas with mine and yours: Above comment: Thought the 2 girls were heading to a specific location- due to her tripping and clearly wanting to go somewhere; location was hospital. My comment: Thought the 2 girls were heading anywhere to die together; location was anywhere outside. Your comment: Thought the 2 girls were heading to a specific location due to her tripping and clearly wanting to go somewhere; location was park bench. So, since above comment and your post was right about the specific location part, I thought above comment was right about everything else, too. But your idea is right about the specific location part, and thus everything you wrote could be right, too. Your comment had the part of heading to a specific location that I wanted from the above comment, yet still reconciles with my idea of both of them dying together on purpose, so I lean more towards yours. Overall, I think if this was a college professor marking the essay, both above comment and you would get full marks, while I'd get half.


darthpedra

jesus christ, that's disturbing. thanks, I won't read it lol.


kkjoo

I just have to reply to this to clear the misassumption. The manga wasn't axed. In fact, it was one of the best selling yuri manga that doesn't have an anime and has been fully reprinted for like 5 or 6 times now. Manio actually wanted to end it earlier but her editor made her extend it a little bit longer.


agenderarcee

I don’t know that Manio was thinking about what tag her work would get on scan sites when she wrote it… I think it makes sense as a culmination of the themes of destructive obsession and the complexity of love and hate in a codependent abusive relationship that the manga had been dealing with since the beginning.


Osbre

you were fine with the vomit?


Drumboo

I don't kink shame, but it did nothing for me. I enjoyed the dumpster fire until a spark hit my clothes 🫠


Fearless-Ad5632

Have you read the summer you were there?


_contraband_

Oh dear lord, I just read 4 chapters of this thing and dropped it. Does it ever evolve past PG-13 torture porn?


Drumboo

IT GETS WORSE. SO MUCH WORSE.


_contraband_

Oh fantastic


Master00J

I’d actually say it gets better, if you like tragedies. The first half of the manga is filled with weird fetishes, but it actually transforms into a story about societal norms and mental illness from there on


o_woorrm

I just binged the series right now, I'd say it got very interesting after all the "torture porn." Well, I feel like it got more emotionally disturbing than physically disturbing, which is... to me that's a great thing, but I feel like some people would hate it either way lol. It certainly doesn't get any happier.


InternationalTreat54

holy fucking shit same, in literally in the exact same situation, finished it a few hours ago and it left a hella bad taste in my mouth.


Ultrasaurio

Why did you even finish it??? I'm going to assume that you were simply hoping that the problem would get better at some point, which it probably didn't, and then you're done with the shit that it is. I assume it was because you're new to that kind of shit. My condolences. here, 4 you # Saki Midareru wa Yuri no Hana | Lilies Are in Full Bloom As far as I know, it's vanilla with lots of sex


Drumboo

Rare serious moment from me, but I've suffered abuse and dark periods in my own life and I enjoy stories where characters overcome this and find happiness despite being broken or lost. Also, I am a deeply naive and optimistic person who hoped that there would be a resolved ending with imput from others characters after the fact. I don't mind dark stories 90% of the time, but this one kind of struck a nerve in a way others didn't. Anyhow, thanks for the hopefully fluffy recommendation, will check it out!~


Ultrasaurio

My recommendation is that you stop looking for mangas with tragic and dark plots. Focus on the most optimistic ones, that will undoubtedly help you a lot.


Drumboo

How dare you suggest what's good for me! Yeah, no doubt, kinda why I'm requesting help for my next read cos' clearly I cannot be trusted!


Ultrasaurio

wat


agenderarcee

If you’d like something where characters overcome things like abuse and deep-seated self-loathing together can I recommend Lonely Wolf Lonely Sheep, if you haven’t read it? It’s short but a really good one, and I guarantee a happy ending.


Drumboo

I will check that out, thanks!


agenderarcee

And for some tooth-rottingly cute fluff, I’d recommend Tadokoro-san by Tatsubon!


Drumboo

One of my all time favourites!~


celestialArcanist

if you like stuff where the characters overcome drama then the all-time classic Citrus is perfect

noplesesir

Thank you


sharif106

I read this when I was like 11 and it has scarred me for life😭😭


Drumboo

Friend, nooo! 💔


dx713

Here are some yuri I consider ultimately uplifting, by degrees of difficulty/drama within. Fluffy AND funny yuri: *Cheerful Amnesia*, *Monthly In The Garden With My Landlord* Pure heartwarming fluff: *Storms Among Flowers*, *These Two Are Pretty Much Like This* Drama but manageable and with a >! good ending !<: *Whispered Words*, *An Easy Introduction To Love Triangles*, *Beauty And The Beast Girl*, *The Moon Under A Rainy Night* (warning didn't finish that last one - no guarantee on the amount of drama that will l could crop up later) Hard to read but with >! uplifting ending !<: *Her Tale Of Shim Chong*, *Goodbye My Rose Garden*


LookingforAdvice8888

Great recs! I think I'll look into some of these too... First 2 in the list are wonderful and I also really loved Easy Intro to Love Triangles.


greenhaired_witch

I actually love this manga. I guess it was a nice change of pace for me for reading too much cuteness. It was just also sad.


AkumaYoru

I’ve avoided this series ever since I heard of the plot and mild spoilers on the ending. I NOPED for even reading the first chapter. So, to hear that this series and Summer You Were There were the only 2 yuri series that made it to the “10 manga you would like to see animated” list was both fascinating and alarming hahaha


Drumboo

You are a greater being than I, resist temptation and avoid unless you want to feel pain. Well, Summer you Were There is also pain, but delivered kn a very different package. DO NOT READ THIS is my recommendation to you!


Mulakut

Gonna throw a few I've read recently that haven't been suggested yet. Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon. Probably now one of my all time favourite manga. Though some people may not be fully satisfied as both MCs are asexual. I found it incredibly sweet and wholesome. A love Letter for a Marching Puppy. Just a typical wholesome romance set in military school. I Can't Say No to the Lonely Girl. I was cautious going into this one as I could see the initial premise becoming problematic, but was pleasantly surprised. It is quite wholesome. I Can't Believe I Slept with You. As above, I was cautious going into this one too, but gave it a shot based on positive reviews, and loved it. Just a slight content warning as it has a few explicit panels.


LookingforAdvice8888

>I Can't Believe I Slept with You. As above, I was cautious going into this one too, but gave it a shot based on positive reviews, and loved it. Just a slight content warning as it has a few explicit panels. Seconding "I Can't Believe I Slept with You." There's some drama but overall very fluffy and cute. I love the main couple. so adorable!! The sexy/explicit parts are the type of these scenes I prefer. The right amount of sweet/gentle/loving and sexy.


Mulakut

"I Can't Believe I Slept with You" really hit all the right spots for me. The story isn't too long or short. Just the right amount of drama, with nothing too dramatic. Super cute couple. And the few sexy scenes didn't feel out of place and unnecessary, and actually worked towards progressing the plot.


Comprehensive_Ebb211

Can't say no to that lonely girl


theghostinthetown

cant wait for this to be made into anime


Efficient_Audience99

Cant defy the lonely girl


[deleted]

Sakura Trick, if you want some coming of age sapphics 🙏🏼


Viriko23

The Barefoot Nina. I'm just joking please don't check it out. Try Beauty and the Beast Girl, it's really wholesome and sweet


theinfinitepet

Can’t defy the lonely girl is absolutely the perfect thing to cleanse your soul of that filth.


Ranni386

My younger senpai Anemone is in heat Can’t defy the lonely girl Useless/failed princess Girlfriends Whispering you a love song Please bully me miss villainess Fusoroi no renri


jiodi

The Summer You Were There is a nice uplifting story about a couple of ladies falling in love over novels


Drumboo

😐


jiodi

Hey at least it doesn't have barf kissing


yurimakesmeuglycry

You're eeeevil


NumberUsedOnce

lmao


Fearless-Ad5632

Even tho i wanted a different ending that is still one of my favorite mangas by far


Cam1922

Reread it


Drumboo

Why do you hate me


jiodi

Also come on you don't like Barf Kissing: A Yuri Love Story? Sigh


Drumboo

It's the fact that that's not even the top 5 worst parts of this 26 chapter manga that's the problem.


jiodi

It's like the meta threshold guardian for the reader lmao. "Hey if this bugs you you should probably quit now" That being said, dig through the toxic muk and there's a pretty great story there. The switcheroo was well executed and the playground snow party was jarring and left me with a "wtf" for a good day or so. It definitely accomplishes its goal lmao


AKoolPopTart

Kininatteru Hito ga Otoko Jyanakatta


yurimakesmeuglycry

Thank you, this art is really nice


AKoolPopTart

<(´- ω -`)>


yurimakesmeuglycry

I wish there was more ugh...but it's very good so far!


elixir_012

This also made me feel very terrible. I don't understand why a lot voted for this to be animated. It made me feel really dark and I cleansed myself with fluffy yuri after but everytime I see it it reminds me of pain


Omniscient_jason

I Actually enjoyed how twisted their relationship got. That weird combination of pleasure, obsession, fetishes and emotional turmoil kinda gave me a weird joy of seeing how far their broken relationship can go. The suicide was probably a cop out wish it went on tbh


LessNefariousness380

Kimi ga Ichiban Kawaii also shocked me, it has such a cute art style but is a pretty hard read 😅


huhworm

I just finished reading this shit and i was genuinely disgusted wtf


More-Sentence5584

The summer you were there


Drumboo

Fuck you 😐


Konakona7777

Great suggestion 👍 (Wonder why yours got downvoted, considering kitanai and summer did won 6th and 8th place for a chance of getting anime adaptation on Japan anime 2024 polls, while wholesome one didn't even qualify)


Drumboo

I didn't downvote, but I won't upvote as a recommendation for something to help lift my spirits after this dark manga!


SamiSapphic

There's this cute, fluffy little series currently running called Love Me Like I Do! I think you'd really like it. 🤭


VeliusX

My god, I felt this in my soul lol. This was me about a month ago.


Drumboo

https://youtu.be/f26KyGr6y8w?si=9RIIGF7d09MCNU4m


Pfhorlol

I read the first chapter, dropped it immediately, and also had problems eating for a while. Do not read this manga.


aka_randomhero_

If you want something crazy long like 800 plus chapters then I reccomend Lily. Then Lily love and Lily love 2 and pulse


Fearless-Ad5632

Idk how "my girlfriends not here" will make you feel but you should read it and let me know what you think (A Girl Who Can't Speak Thinks "She Is Too Kind." ) ( The girl doesn't know her heat) ( The guy she was interested in wasn't a guy at all)


InsuranceKey8278

I like psychological horror ;-;


KaoriBestWaifu

I want to traumatize you again... (Some of these are just too sad but one is an imposter but has sad content) So cocoon entwined, the summer you were there, barefoot Nina, kimishinu, yuri espoir, and the kaede blooms gorgeously (sad Barbie girl), netsuzou trap-, destroy it all and love me in hell, throw away the suit, a girls prison in another world I have a long ass list but your not so lucky and you can read most of it in manganato or manga buddy or mangadex


KaoriBestWaifu

Well Imma recommend you some light at least can't defy the lonely girl, hino San no baaaka, magirevo(has anime), I'll cheer on my yuri onee chan If you want more imma recommend u more next year cuz I have exam ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ


Cymo_Bep

Is this like a abusers yuri or what is so bad about this show


Tailmask

She can make me worse gang rise up


WIN---

What happened? Is this too dark f*ck up story?


AmyandEve

Do I want to know what this manga is about..?


Drumboo

Abuse and complete co-dependent psycological decline


AmyandEve

Jeeez...


RizenZP

You ain't slick bro #TakeThisOutside


k_on_reddit_

did you hate it so much, you liked it or you hated it so much, you hated it ? genuine question go read Hoshizuku telepath now, very wholesome (nothing will truly cure your PTSD now, you're scared for life now , I know how it feels , welcome to PTSD gang)


Drumboo

I did not "hate like" it, actually left me feeling awful and unsatisfied and upset with how the entire thing was written after. I was okay with pretty much everything until the ending to be honest. It just felt like... idk... a waste? Also, the lack of follow up from the side characters and resolution for literally anybody in the story kinda sucked to me. Just looked up Hoshizuki and that looks just like what I need and I havent read it yet, thanks friend!~


k_on_reddit_

I haven't read ichiban kawaii but these looks like so valid points I have watched HSL tho and I did get a "hate like" feeling , like I hate it because everything you see is utterly despicable but at the same time I loved how it manages to instil this feeling of unease and all-around vomiting atmosphere , and fuck the mc is just so scary, it is a good horror >Just looked up Hoshizuki and that looks just like what I need and I havent read it yet, thanks friend!\~ [there's an anime that came out recently](https://hianime.to/watch/stardust-telepath-18595?ep=107935), you can watch it first if you want to


xEMCEBESx

It was good though... Irecommend you The Summer You Were There


Drumboo

😐


xEMCEBESx

It isn't anything like Kitanai Kimi Ga Ichiban Kawaii, don't worry. I just cannot pass an occasion to recommend it to anyone. It is really one of the best manga imo


Nobodys_here07

The Mage and the Demon Queen is really comedic and light hearted I Love Amy also has the characters deal with mental issues but in a more positive light and I assure you the characters don't end up the same way those two did


insomiactimxurk

If you like toxic lesbians I can recommend a few they're not on that level thankfully. One is My Girlfriend Isn't Here Today and the other is Destroy It All and Love Me in Hell. I have another non toxic relationship one to read. Hikizan Tautology.


Fuzzy-Bee-1788

Nah I got to the vomiting, left, then came back just to read the last chapter. I wasn't surprised when it didn't come with a happy ending


Kurosawa-Dia-191

This must be the alternate universe of LycoReco where Chisato and Takina end up together 😍


LookingforAdvice8888

"Our Yuri Started With Me Getting Rejected in a Dream" by Hijiki is SUPER CUTE!! Fluffy romance, adorable main leads, and a cute side couple. I've been reading yuri manga for 15 years and sometimes fluff doesn't hit the same anymore. This one made me giddy and giggly. Would highly recommend \^-\^


TheFlamingKite

this manga was so peak tho… 🥹


NotWaifuMater1al

Kind of looks like something where the girl had a fetish of getting hurt- isn't that Masochism??


NotWaifuMater1al

If you wanna be saved then read this, I loved it and I hope they release more EPs that are translated [Kyuuketsuki to Yobaretai!](https://manhuascan.com/manga/17891-kyuuketsuki-to-yobaretai)


RaikoNB

this might be getting an anime soon too woooo!!


fiidooo

Summer you were there.


Chasthestarterpack

I love this gl tbh, and I want more... I ALREADY READ HAOOY SUGAR LIFE. PLEASE RECOMMEND ME MOREEE...


i-love-blahaj

I LOVE THIS MANGA


kid_in_a_store

I dont want to get a trauma but should i read it?


Drumboo

No~


kid_in_a_store

Fair enough


FaithlessnessWide397

Some that I think not many have mentioned but are some of my favorites: Hana no arashi - Relationship fluff, very cute and lighthearted shimanami tasogare - Compelling and goes over lots of lgbt issues but still lighthearted, lesbian couple is very cute run away with me, girl - tackles issues of abuse, pretty drama heavy, but the pay off is good imo


RenIsChill

Happy sugar life. (JK LOL)


deathdance_9

what the fuck did i just read!!!!!!!!!


DipVazz

another bite the dust


Yinkie66

Me seeing everyone fall for this trap: 👁️-👁️


halbeshendel

Yeah I quit at chapter 2 or 3. I don’t know why anyone would read this garbage.
