Escape from Yuri Hell: FLIP FLAPPERS’ critique of the Class S genre

FLIP FLAPPERS is many things: a magical girl adventure through visually stunning fantasy lands, a multi-layered exploration of its characters and the nature of perception, a problematic fave, and a queer coming-of-age story about an insecure girl who’s just trying to figure herself out. The story follows Cocona, a (seemingly) ordinary girl who gets swept up in a quest to collect wish-granting “fragments” in Pure Illusion, a magical dream-space that changes to reflect the psyche of those who enter it.

Each visit to Pure Illusion is both a genre homage and a character exploration, often touching on themes of coming-of-age and the complicated business of sexual maturation. As part of this trend, Episode Five, “Pure Echo,” develops and explores our heroes and the trials of adolescence by throwing them into a world that combines Class S, a genre of sweet yuri romance, with horror. Now, what in the world could that strange combination be trying to tell us?

You wouldn’t normally put the two together, but it makes sense in context. Flip Flappers uses these two disparate story types to make a point, both about its characters and the conventions Class S represents, by developing Cocona and adding to her queer coming-of-age story while ultimately rejecting the tropes it’s paying homage to along the way.
