[My pronouns are they/them. English isn't my first language. You can call me Toonyu. I'm in my twenties.] I created another sub blog so I could talk about my love for wlw pairing. Mostly content will be about animation, but it can happen to appear in one or another post with real people/actors.
Welcome, himejin! I don't know how active I will be here, but this blog is femslash focused (with focus on animations, but nothing stops me from posting something about movies and shows with real people/actors).
If you wish to interact with me, I respond to the name Toonyu. I am a chill, but passionate, twenty and something person who wants to talk about my favorite wlw ships and characters.
If you don't like something I post here, I recommend you mute the tags — if you still wish to keep following me — or block this acc. I will not respond to hate about things I find joy in and I have no interest in wasting my energy into arguing when I could be writing a meta post.
I am a multi fandom, so don't expect consistency from me. Sometimes I am also a multi shipper and another I am a mono, so I will post about different ships with the same character. If you have a notp about any of my ships, the advice up there is the only warning I give.
If this away, I hope I can find other people who also share the same love I have with femslash.

more women whump. more women pushing themselves and passing out from sleep deprivation and exhaustion. more women training until their knuckles bleed and their legs give out from under them. more women being held prisoner and remaining stoic until the very end or perhaps when they’re rescued. more women under truth serum and terrifying hallucinogens. more women waking up in a pool of blood, their own and others’ and not knowing what happened but that something is terribly wrong with them. more women falling apart o ly when rescued. more women pushed to their breaking point. more women whump.
man, it's so cool when female characters over-indulge and self-destruct and hurt themselves and others on purpose and have no way out but make it worse anyway and bite and scratch and betray everything they stand for for nothing and have no one to blame but themselves.
i find myself a little annoyed when i see people demanding more f/f content, that they dont see it and its bs cuz they want it. these posts have thousands of notes. wheres that energy for the f/f content thats already here? idk, maybe tell the writers already writing it that you appreciate them, vs telling them their hard work, that theyre doing for free btw, isnt enough. like, am i crazy for feeling like its choosing beggars? write it yourself if ur so goddamn unhappy.
Oh yeah, this annoys me too. It's worse when the people that I did saw posting this also do not talk/post about femslash/yuri in their accounts — like, did they realize they're part of the problem too? You can't complain about the lack of femslash if you don't support femslash artists, it will sound hypocritical.
I know there is people who do support femslash creators that complain about the disparity between slash and femslash art — but most of the time, when the post has a lot of reblogs/traction, it's not this type of account that is making the complain.
My point is: I dislike people trying to put a front about being worried about something they don't really care about, specially when it's something that is important to others, like the amount of femslash content in fandom communities and sites. It's extremely annoying.
If people really cared about it, they would support the artists that do make art about what they like or even start doing some of their own.
Yuri Day (百合の日) takes place on June 25th in Japan and celebrates yuri works. The day came to be as Japanese yuri fans noted that June 25th was the assigned day for the lily, which is where yuri (百合 lit. lily) gets its name from.

And if I said old lady yuri??? AND enemies to lovers??? Hell yeah.
Side note and SPOLIER: this movie actually did have a character who used to be a nun and left because she was a lesbian and it was so beautifully done. The whole movie was beautiful. I cried like a bitch.

i’m revisiting a topic that’s been making the rounds again since the atla renaissance. misogyny in fandoms has sadly become so normalized that people think they have a free pass to be openly sexist, therefore shielding their toxicity under the guise of “having an opinion”. they don’t even bother to hide the obvious pattern as these 'opinions' are reserved exclusively for the show's female cast.
for a fandom that prides itself in recognising and valuing realism and complexity it sure happens to be selective about it. you become angry when you see women being reckless, emotionally volatile, arrogant, traumatized, morally inconsistent because it makes you “uncomfortable” whereas male characters are allowed contradiction, their flaws are interpreted as depth. their anger and emotional repression becomes tragedy and their personality has “layers” because fans instinctively search for the wound underneath male behavior.
female characters, meanwhile, are denied that same interpretive generosity. their flaws are flattened into personality defects, it’s suddenly “bad writing” to see a minor act their age. their emotional reactions are treated as irritants instead of symptoms, their mistakes become evidence that they are fundamentally unlikeable.
this commentary isn’t you being honest, this isn’t constructive feedback, this is you having an expectation, specifically, the expectation that women in fiction should absorb pain gracefully, express anger delicately, and remain emotionally legible at all times.
korra is the clearest case of this double standard because her entire character is built around traits fandoms traditionally reward in men; confidence, physicality, impulsiveness, stubbornness, aggression, pride. if korra were a male protagonist, many of the exact qualities people hate about her would instead be read as charismatic, compelling or heroic. the issue is not that korra fails to embody her role as the avatar like aang did. it is that she embodies it in a way people are unaccustomed to seeing in women.
an important thing to note is that korra’s story is not about proving she is strong, she already is. the series systematically strips strength away from her in order to interrogate who she is without it. every season destabilizes some aspect of her identity; political authority, physical power, spiritual certainty, bodily autonomy, public legitimacy. yet fandom discourse often reduces her to “hotheaded” because women suffering is rarely granted thematic dignity. people recognize trauma in male characters as transformativebut in korra it is, more often than not, treated as inconvenience. you dismiss the fact that training and preparing to be the avatar is all she’s ever known, you want her to have social intelligence/experience when she had no social life to begin with. you are telling me that when a child, who has only been taught how to fulfill her duties as the avatar, navigates the real world and builds relationships with people her age for the first time in her life, she happens to do it in a “messy” and “unusual” way? oh no, what a nightmare! (pun intended). but of course her gradual character development meant nothing to you, of course she can’t change! having a single (1) personality trait is all female character are good for, right?
the criticism that korra is “too emotional” shows that people tolerate emotional dysfunction so long as it remains emotionally indirect. korra is actually emotionally transparent in a franchise where many beloved male characters externalize their emotions through violence, avoidance, sarcasm or withdrawal. BUT because she expresses fear, frustration, vulnerability, and rage openly, she is perceived as excessive rather than human.
katara experiences (and has experienced for many years) a related form of misogyny because she occupies a role fandom historically devalues: the emotionally articulate girl. the fandom simplifies a girl who is headstrong and brave, who insists on ethics and stays true to herself no matter what to her nurturing and caring traits. her emotional labor is deemed as natural rather than extraordinary. the second the show expands and demands recognition for her grief or expresses anger outside the boundaries of caretaking, the show is “badly written” and she becomes “annoying” and has been called all sort of names because of it, from “trophy wife” to “momtara” to “incubator” (disgusting) throughout the years.
ironically enough, katara’s pain only seems to be respected when it services someone else’s character arc. her compassion toward zuko is praised because it helps redeem him. her support of aang is praised because it helps stabilize him. but when her grief becomes self-directed, when she is angry, resentful, obsessive, morally conflicted or unwilling to forgive you become hostile to her. she’s expected to metabolise her trauma calmly but male characters are allowed to center their trauma with no issue.
this is why fandom responses to katara and korra cannot be separated from broader patterns of misogyny in media criticism. women in fiction are still expected to perform emotional accessibility. they must be strong but not abrasive, vulnerable but not messy, traumatized but still nurturing, assertive but never difficult. the margin for acceptable female behavior is incredibly narrow and fandom punishes women who step outside of it while calling that punishment “objective critique”.
the tragic irony in a series that is centered around balance when the fandom distributes empathy in a profoundly unbalanced way and the even sadder realisation that the only way you’d come around to respect a woman is if you went through a similar experience as her or someone you have respect for, has (because of course respect when it comes to women has to be earned, if no proof, why respect, correct?) will never fail to shock me.
friendly reminder before you bring your idiotic take to the table; she’s not morally ambiguous you’re just misogynistic. no, it’s not a controversial topic, just misogyny.
so next time you have these thoughts address them as is: you hate women.

A couple of short, decidedly unserious scenes with our newly introduced characters. These originally came out before each story chapter as kind of like introduction scenes, but since their tone is so different from the actual main story, I think they work better after you already get a good grasp on what these characters are supposed to be like in the main storyline.
Pre Story: Akehi and Haruna
As it turns out, Haruna's arrival in Kamba went pretty much as you would expect.
Read it here.
Pre Story: Fujino and Suzume
Fujino may have loose screws galore, but damn is she a good cook (she should open a restaurant or something)
Read it here.
Pre Story: Yuni and Fuuka
The breadth of Yuni's romantic expertise is pretty much proportional to the amount of patience Fuuka has for her.
Read it here.
Pre Story: Mitake and Makina
Makino Mitake has just joined Cuélebre, and Makina's interested on seeing how good she is... on the joystick, of course!
Read it here.
Pre Story: Yahiro and Shin
Where we have a little look at the most valuable thing a Star Lily can achieve.
Read it here.
Pre Story: The Mightiest of Meddlers
And they say you can only do manzai with two acts.
Read it here.
Pre Story: Maki Wakana
In which Soraha is spoiled rotten by her two wive- i mean, sisters.
