	Loli Yuri manga
	Rating: 7.8 / 10.0 by Kamugin February 25th, 2013, 12:46am
Here is Higashiyama Shou's first attempt to create a non hentai lolicon manga: it is an yuri manga. Shou isn't able to, or doesn't want, avoid the main characteristic of his previous works, the lolis. He bumps up a little the age of the girls, then instead of grade schoolgirls we have middle schoolgirls, first year though, so he can keep them looking exactly alike his usual loli girls. To avoid the hentai stigma, he keeps sex at the bare minimum, even less than in mangas from authors used to make yuri genre mangas. Shou's fans are certain to be disappointed because of how light this manga is. Regarding the plot, it is interesting to see a major hentai author trying his hands at something (almost) non hentai. He is one of the few hentai authors that tries to deliver a fairly decent plot for his stories and now, outside his main genre, he creates a surprising good story around two girls in love. Of course this is not something on the same level as Octave for example, there is more focus in comical situations than in conflict, angst or instrospection, however these are there in a small amount and even there is a bit of prejudice too. So, Shou was able to deliver an acceptable yuri manga, with the flavor of his lolis, and his above than average pencil skills to make the stuff more tempting. ...

	really good, cute read. even for non-yuri fans.
	Rating: 10.0 / 10.0 by 1412Bunny April 24th, 2012, 2:38am
i've never read a yuri manga before, i just read this out of curiosity (and boredom). but i have to say i really really like this manga. the story is very well written, the comedic moments are very funny, and the characters are realistic, and all have their own distinct personalities (i love how the girls actually talk like real teenage girls, it's refreshing). i found it cool how even though i'm not a lesbian i could relate to the main characters really well. it's just a really good manga, whether you're into yuri or not. i don't think i'll be reading much more yuri in the future (i'm more a yaoi kinda of girl lol), but i'm definitely open to reading yuri by this mangaka. i wasn't too keen on the art at first but it definitely grows on you. by chapter 2 i loved it. ...

	Unmatched cuteness
	Rating: 10.0 / 10.0 by Verix February 18th, 2012, 3:41am
Admittedly, I've only read some shoujo ai before, actual yuri manga usually didn't interest me all that much. This manga, on the other hand, is absolutely wonderful. At the time of writing this is the #1 rated yuri manga on the manga updates website, and for a couple of reasons. The story itself, the pacing, the drawings, the characters & their development, the portrayal of homophobic behavior of some outsiders; this manga offers a lot and doesn't let you down. Other than that, if you like to be grinning and having a manga embarrass you non-stop, I can't recommend this enough. Super lovable. ... Last updated on February 18th, 2012, 3:45am

	Prismatic Colors to the Black and White World
	Rating: 10.0 / 10.0 by kurosmith February 17th, 2012, 11:53pm
...is how I would describe my impression of this fine yuri series. With Megumi and Hikaru being the prism and the light, respectively, it is the development of their relationship and interaction as two maidens in love that brings forth the prismatic colors to the black and white world through its straightforward story and sincere characters. Executed with finesse, the storytelling here is brilliant. Not a single page is misused: flashbacks are intricately woven in for context and to compliment the narrative; panels are laid out with deliberation and scenes are framed from viewpoints that truly seize the moment; and subtle actions by the characters convey significant thoughts and emotions. Best of all, the author does not disappoint us with his excellence in the art of showing two girls locking lips! For those who are interested in yuri, I recommend that you start with this relatively soft series first. ... Last updated on February 18th, 2012, 12:20am
