11. Revue Starlight + The Movie

yeah people arent gonna agree with me on this one will they.

I didn't get this show. I watched the whole thing. I watched the new scenes in Rondo Rondo Rondo. I watched the movie. I didn't get it. I can absolutely tell how ambitious this is though! The music was great, the animation, and I can tell what they were telling was a really good story and I understand that, but i have a brain the size of a cheezit and I didn't understand what was going on, so I couldn't fully enjoy it. The Plot of Karen finding a secret elevator in her theatre school, and finding a underground stage performance tournament her other classmates are performing in, all to become the One and only Starlight, with the Giraffe Ringleader watching over all of this. Though I can totally see why its one of the most popular ones out there, but for me personally, it just didn't click. But, I do definitely recommend it, unlike other shows I've ranked last, maybe you'll get something out of it I didn't!

10. Kuttsukiboshi

I knew some things before going into this one. mainly that it got pretty weird. and HOLYYYY shit did it get weird. this is the most down bad show I watched for this list (still doesn't beat you, gushing over magical girls). then there's that one scene, at the end of episode one, and the one around the middle of episode 2. ew. just ew all around. But for some reason... I still like this double episode special? I don't know. I should hate it, yet I don't. overall, it was sweet. Kawakami having mind powers was strange though and overall i'm unsure how I feel about Saiton. the ending was also very weird (the very very end, what was leading up to it was pretty good) Overall, its.... ok and maybe(?) worth a watch if you can handle some weird stuff (look into it at your own risk i'm not explaining it). I'm only ranking it above Revue because It made me feel actual emotion unlike revue where I was just bewildered most of the time.

9. Assault Lily Bouquet

this one was pretty decent! this honestly felt like a better Strawberry Panic mixed with fighting robots and that's pretty awesome. But like Strawberry Panic, it didn't fully grab me. I did really like what they did with Yuri, and I was genuinely sad when she died. But besides that, nothing really left an impact on me aside from the cool robot designs. The way Kaede went from being annoyed at Riri for getting in the way of her and Yuyu only to then right after the first battle become obsessed with Riri, was very strange and I didn't really like her all that much. Overall, its pretty decent, but I don't plan to watch it again.

8. Koisuru Asteroid/Asteroid In Love

y'know for being named "Asteroid in Love" there was a shocking amount of Yuri absence here. That's not a bad thing in this shows case, but I was kinda hoping for a bit more. I like the dynamic between Mira and Ao. Honestly thought Ao was transfem at first so Im headcanoning she is cause its awesome and you cant stop me. But I really like the concept of this show! Two girls, just wanting to discover an Asteroid, and even though they dont in the end, it doesn't matter, as they still are determined to one day do it! and its pretty good cause of this, I recommend giving this one a watch!

7/10

7. Vapor Trail

Now This one I'm ranking differently then the rest, as this one isnt an official anime or OVA. its a free 30 minute short film, for free on youtube, so its on quite a small budget made by one guy. But what they are able to do on this budget is insane. The Story they tell is so fucking good like, Yashima and Liza, promising to be with eachother forever, but Liza being forcibly drafted to fight the invading robot aliens, and Years later Yashima joins the army to find out she died in combat, and now her only way to talk to her is through this specific robot suit that an AI of her is attached to, is just like amazing?? and that ending, with both of them moving on together, Yashima sacrificing herself for the greater good is so fucking good it got me tearing up. But Besides the story, the rest of it is just, alright for me, the Music, SFX, and Animation is just alright, but its understandable with what the budget its on. But I totally recommend giving this one a watch, its only around 35 Minutes, so Its so worth a watch!

6. The Executioner And Her Way Of Life

MAN this one was good. The concept alone hooked me. Otherworlders, getting Isekai'd into this world, and these Special Priestess having to kill them before their special powers get out of control, but Menou being unable to kill Akari, due to her time powers, so having to travel with her as she remains oblivious to Menou's true objective, OOOH ITS SUCH A COOL CONCEPT. and they do NOT skip out of it either. the idea that Akari has lived through this whole journey multiple times, each slightly different, and all she wants is to die from Menou Specifically. I really do hope a season 2 gets made, though it is unlikely sadly. I Totally recommend giving this one at least one watch if interested, It has such an interesting story!

5. Bocchi the Rock!

yeah yeah, this one technically isnt yuri but uhhhhh its my list I do what I want. I actually watched this one quite awhile ago, back a few months ago with a few friends, but I decided "hey, why not toss it on the list". This show is pretty damn funny, and All the characters are really enjoyable! The style of this show is really fun, and Bocchi is a great protag I relate to quite alot! I also really like the ship between Bocchi and Kita, and the music in this show slaps too! I honestly dont have much else to talk about regarding this one, you should just go watch it! I cant wait for season 2!

8/10

4. Whispered Words

I didn't have high expectations when going into this one, as I knew nothing actually gets confirmed in the anime and it gets wrapped up in the manga (which I plan to read tonight), but I honestly really enjoyed it! The way they show Sumika's love for Kazama was done really well, and they way they slowly show over the course of the show that Kazama eventually develops the same feelings for her was really sweet to see! I honestly cant wait to read the manga and see where it heads, but Honestly I would recommend watching it, but it is a bit of a slow burn, if that isnt really your thing.

3. A Ninja and an Assassin Under One Roof

this one was really good! the concept alone got me interested, and Im glad i checked it out, it was insane, but in a good way. All the characters in this were great, aside from Marin's sister she was pretty weird. Marin Herself was amazing, and I loved Roboko, every time i look at them I get Silvagunner Joke Explainer vibes from em. and Obviously, the main two Sakoto and Konoha have great chemistry and they are awesome together! I cant wait for season 2, and you guys should def check out this show if you get the chance!

8/10

2. Fragtime

this one was so freaking sweet just aajhhjjhaaahjdjha. The Relationship between Misuzu and Haruka was so sweet, and Misuzu time stopping powers was a fun concept, the concept itself is pretty cool to see in yuri, and I'd like to see it again one day. I love the story of Misuzu helping Haruka overcome her Internal struggles and Insecurities of how other percieve her, and how throughout the story, Haruka feels she can only be herself when the time is stopped, and shes around Misuzu. its such a freaking sweet OVA, I recommend this one so much. Its such a heartwarming Love story, and I don't wanna spoil it all too much.

9/10

1. Vampire In The Garden

this one sent me through a fucking rollercoaster of emotions, holy shit. I'll start off with the characters. Momo and Fine have such a great gay romance friendship throughout this, that you legit can so easily get attached to them the moment they meet. And the Story, OH THE STORY. AMAZING. I CRIED LIKE 4 TIMES IN THE SPAN OF THE 5 EPISODES. This show is so good for only being 5 episodes, it has no right being this amazing. The final episode, where Fine takes the Drug to turn her into a monster so Momo can get Away, only for Momo being able to turn her back, but only for then have her die in her arms, like oh my god the show didnt have to hurt me like that oh my doomed yuri..... god this one, is just so good for me. Please watch it if you can, cant recommend it enough.
