I know you asked this before the finale so I'm doing it now

BYLER YAOI REVIEW (THE ONE WHERE I PROBABLY GET DEATH THREATS)

This is how FlickerGate could still happen thanks to 10 easy steps.

As I'm writing this, there are multiple guns aimed at my head by ross and matt duffer and the third brother they don't even let anybody know about... Its not looking good. I'm surprised they let me still make this with the information that I've acquired at Stranger Things Headquarters.

This might be my last message, I just want all you guys to know that conformitygate IS real.. we just got the wrong year.. its January 7th of 2027.. to go along with kevin duffer's favorite number.

I'm sure the bylerheads know way more about this subject than I do.. but I'm Yaoi Review, so dont worry, you're in good hands.

(Just to specify, when I say Yaoi.. I mean gay people.. men loving men.. nothing inappropriate.. since.. )

EVIDENCE 1: WILL DOESN'T EVEN LIKE GIRLS

Dude.. Will doesn't like girls...? No.. no way..

Alright so we all know the scene where Mike says that Will doesn't like girls.. will runs home and cries.. and.. steve and robin are probably getting tortured by russians as it happens since its Season 3.

Now.. WHAT IF.. will's gay. I think I could prove that the duffers were trying to do something..

SEASON 5. Will is just having a great conversation with the gang when he drops this.. bombshell out of no where..

Now.. I think this may be him coming out but its hard to say since Kali was revealed to be homophobic in the novels and the screenplay so she probably would've gotten pretty mad here if she was paying attention.

He also brings up that he had a crush on someone.. which would help us.. but we all know that its insinuated to be Lucas because the camera panned to him in this scene.

Then this one character that Joyce clearly never saw in her life hugs will and comforts him and all the other characters that we've learned to love does too.. so WE better accept Will also..

My inside scoop into the makings of Stranger Things Season 5 will help me out by answering a consistent question: DOES eleven even know what gay people are?

There was a small scene that was supposed to take place in episode 7 that would answer all of our questions here:

I took this off the duffer siblings laptop when they weren't looking.. the things I do for this job.. I'LL TELL YOU...

...

..anyhow I think its safe to say Will is gay, and we clearly all know that Mike is gay so I don't think that needs to be covered..

EVIDENCE 2: FLICKERGATE LETS GO FLICKERGATE!!

That scene in season 5 is a LITTLE too far fetched for me.. lets get serious.

so everybody who's anybody remembers that scene in season 1 episode 1 where will says 'gtg home man' and mike's garage light's flicker..... right? well i may or may not have heard that there will be a scene in the final episode where they meet in the upside down ... and kiss in mike's garage which makes sense because if you read raven boys you would know that time is a circle and this makes sense!! this is only further proven by barb's famous line when they pull up outside of steve's harrington's house where she says

" oh look the street light's flickering hat means we shoud kiss. please nancy can we kiss"

Now I know what you're thinking.. "There was no kiss in the final episode of stranger things between Mike and Will.." YEAH, because THAT wasn't the final episode.

ARE YOU STUPID? THATS WHAT VECNA WANTS YOU TO THINK!

When Mike and Will are confirmed to kiss on January 7th, 2027. You guys owe me.

When those lights start flickering that's the equivalent of the Stranger Things mistletoe.. that'll make anyone gay, watch out.

EVIDENCE 3: IT WOULDVE BEEN DONE BETTER IF THE DUFFERS DIDNT MESS UP REALLY BADLY AND THEY DID THEIR JOB, KEPT THEIR HEAD DOWN, AND GAVE US BYLER

Okay so.. the duffer brothers COULD be great writers.. stranger things season 1 is honestly one of the best first seasons of any tv show ever.. but now we're talking about if eleven is alive or not.

It seems like they just slowly began to stop caring about some aspects of the show.. some things still was consistently great.. but now they just seem like they're just making the final episodes because they have to, with no intent of completing a story.

YES byler is REAL, they don't want you to know. ONLY I KNOW THE TRUTH.. with this last piece of evidence im sure to TAKE THOSE SCHEMING BROTHERS AND..

and.. oh god.. no... no no no no... they.. oh god..

...Yeah, they saw me type that. I'm not coming home tonight.

The rest of this yaoi review isnt for you.. or the next reader.. nor is this an admittance of guilt.. i am simply speaking to my family now..

Baxter. You are the love of my life. I hope you know that. There are.. going to be some things.. things that you'll come to learn about me in the next few days..

I just want you to know that no matter how it may look.. I only had you in my heart.. the stranger things fans deserved the truth.. and I delivered..

I'm never going to be the hero to them, because they'll never truly be happy, and thats okay. I'd be pissed off too if one of my favorite shows ended that way..

If no one can find my body, I'm behind the fourth waterfall.

CONCLUSION:

They're yaoi.

yaoi: 10/10

Are you.. are you entertained? Does this not entertain you?

If you arent, maybe read my stonathan review.. I.. was able to speak under better conditions there..

End.

muppets yuri. is this anything

[the-muppet-joker]

(Takes your hand, smiling at you so sweetly) Yes. It's everything. Stick with me, kid. You're gonna go far

[yurireviews]

when we get that ribbit flashback i get to make another tadc yuri review

[yurireviews]

yuri review i love you don’t tell yaoi review. if, you find yourself, wanting to review another yuri (to your liking): i may suggest—only if you’re up too it, of course—Yuri, from only the finest of sources. Farcille from Dungeon Meshi? Thank you for your grace and wonderful impact on this world.

thank you for being so polite about it

FARCILLE YURI REVIEW

this ones a classic in the yuri books man. i watched dungeon meshi because of the red flags farcille animation. this is another one where no one can realistically say they dont see it. like even if you're not the biggest shipper of it you have to say 'well yeah they ARE gay'. heads up though but i havent read the manga and im going to try not to spoil the second season as much as i possibly could so this won't have everything but it'll have a good amount of stuff... lets get our yuri on, girls

EVIDENCE 1: CHILDHOOD FRIEND TROPE

falins kind of an outcast at school UNTIL marcille is jealous of her doing really well on her spirit project or whatever and says 'what the hell, ill get a little whimsical if it gets me better at magic'. marcille is uptight and overly cautious and anxious being outdoors while falin runs up and eats random things she finds. though marcilles the more popular one and she's more levelheaded, this aint one of those stories where she's teaching the weird kid how to fit in... its falin teaching marcille how to appreciate the world around her and how that will in turn make her better at magic. assumedly falin is the first person with this kind of outlook on life that marcille's ever met

and its not just marcille that benefits from their new friendship - falin too feels less miserable at school as she writes to laois about her amazing new friend ... they got a very strong foundation to branch off on

EVIDENCE 2: THE MANY STRUGGLES OF MARCILLE DONATO

marcille is undoubtedly the most tormented lead character. every day that passes she's sent into a new form of shock scientists hadn't even thought possible prior to it. she doesn't want to be eating monsters, she doesn't want to spend every waking hour of every day with chilchuck - and before you argue that chilchuck has it just as bad, consider this : he's attracted to senshi.. thats gotta brighten his day a little bit....meanwhile marcille's BEST FRIEND could maybe be DEAD?? nothing to smile about in her life!!

sure the dungeon group grows on one another but its evident that falin is the glue that holds them together and since marcille isnt out for the money and she's not as connected to the others ( doesnt think namari likes her, shuro is a whole other situation we need to get into) we can assume that a lot of her driving force and perserverance throughout the dungeons is all for falin.

ALSO she used dark magic to resurrect falin, which even though she personally doesnt hold any moral oppositions to it, according to chilchuck it could still get her arrested!! its a bloody, messy thing and throughout the series we've seen her disgusted by senshi preparing food but when it comes to falin it doesnt matter any more. she cant accept that shes dead so there is no question in her mind about what she had to do. GAY! GAY GAY GAY!

EVIDENCE 3: NOONES GOING TO TAKE HER FROM YOU BRO

they are way more comfortable around eachother than any of the others. they're always hugging or marcille's inventing new reasons to be right in her face ALL THE TIME. falins more nonchalant about it but that doesn't mean that shes OPPOSED TO it. yeah guys THEY need to go to the bath house together because their best GIRL FRIEND is looking AWFULLY PALE and they need a magic transfer or something.

these two are attached at the hip and are implied to have been this way for a long time

EVIDENCE 4: WHATS GOING ON WITH SHURO?

we all know hes in love with falin or whateverrr and falin doesnt reciprocate his feelings but sometimes goes along with things (like his proposal apparently??? i dont remember that) because she doesn't expect other people to feel that way about her and im not going to sit here and say just cause shes not attracted to one man that makes her a lesbian. that wouldnt be a very feminist thing of me to do. but her feeling like she needs to settle could imply that shes never felt romantically about a man so she views shuro liking her as a 'good enough' solution.

when falin transforms into a monster and takes off her sweater marcille and shuro's reactions are highlighted and presented in the same shot (because nobody else there gaf!!) almost like their reactions are similar in a way.......... thinking................... anyway i found this on facebook.com

marcille actively dislikes shuro BECAUSE hes courting falin even though hes done enough to her personally to get her to dislike him on that basis (apparently he could get a bit heated in interactions with her?? idk i dont remember that either)) ............... shes jealous of him interesting................................. i feel like maybe marcilles feelings for falin are strong and she goes "this is normal to feel this way about your friend!" while falins are more contained but still present and shes either afraid to let marcille know (she seems to be insecure sometimes!) because she doesn't want it to ruin their friendship or something

CONCLUSION

yeah they're gay. what do you want me to say about it man. its all there for you to see. wasnt there a scene where chimera falin licks blood off of marcilles face or was that entire scene edited?? who knows. doesnt change a whole lot now does it. unfortunately we dont see a lot from a falin pov so its hard to speak on her behalf.. but we know she loves marcille. no doubts about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! good ship AND good show. ive only seen three animes and this is one of them.

yurilicious in dungeon!

9.45/10

yuritastic!

[yaoireview]

natsuri oh wait sorry you like YAOI.

....

sometimes I wake up in a cold sweat.. I dunno whats wrong with me.

I JUST NEED A SECOND..

Thats... not yaoi... I don't even know what a "yuri" is...

Sometimes I think I remember something.. deep in the back of my mind thats far away now.

When I look at that carriage in my living room, I think of what could've been..

I miss him, ya know?

I feel him scratching at the temple of my mind...

NATSURI REVIEW!!

Whats going on...where am i...

EVIDENCE 1: AMY LIKES SPIDERS (THE SPIDERS ARE AN ALLEGORY FOR LESBIAN THOUGHTS)

Okay so THIS PIECE OF LITERATURE is trying to hint at natsuki.. being a lesbian... because.... because uhh.... AMY ACTUALLY LIKED WOMEN!!! and natsuki is scared that people will JUDGE HER.... she is amy...

wait.. thats a.. thats a stretch...

Whats going on with me..

EVIDENCE 2: SAYORI SAYS "LET THEM BE GAY"

So when sayori takes control of the game, unlike monika, she just lets Natsuki and Yuri be gay. Its easier this way, if they're BOTH gay.. then theres no competition...

This is why Sayori is the smartest character in DDLC...

...wait.. does that even happen in DDLC.. why.. why does it still say luigi up there in the photo... thats not... luigi...

wait...

EVIDENCE 3: NATSUKI'S FINAL POEM

In Natsuki's final poem in the game, its truly just a note warning the main character about Yuri's mental state.

You say that she's JUST looking out for her friends...? WELL I SAY.. well i..

Yeah... I guess you're probably right...

I'm sorry.. If I actually needed evidence for this, I probably shouldve just went to the side story's... theres a lot of things in that.. and let me tell you.. its not straight..

Maybe...

Maybe this isn't.. yaoi...

this isn't... men.. wait.. lemme double check.. *rubs eyes*

Oh.. nevermind.. I stand corrected. HEH.. that is pretty yaoi!

FINAL THOUGHTS:

Sorry about that gang, I can proudly say that THIS yaoi is

10/10!!!

[yurireviews]

stephanie lauter x grace chasity from nerdy prudes must die!! :3

LETS GO STARKID YURI REVIEW! ive been waiting for this one

LAUTITY YURI REVIEW

tumblr user yuri review is a big fan of musicals... including starkid musicals so i am well educated on this yuri! its a blink and youll miss it one so you may raise your eyebrows and shake your head and scoff "silly yuri review, these characters are the straightest starkid has to offer" BUT SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! because there is also nightmare time to take into account and looking deeper into the musical so you can see how peak this ship is. (im also a big angela giratanna fan. i watch smosh and im sorry)

EVIDENCE 0.5: UNDERSTANDING GRACE THE MAN

grace, despite being the most religious hatchetfield resident, has consistently backwards morals. her values are contradictory and extend to her perception of herself and her godliness and she will stop at nothing to keep herself holy even if that means KILLING A MAN! she is not known to have christian kindness as she just enforces her rules onto others around her in varying ways. so basically she's selfish! i don't think any grace-heads will argue with me on this that most of what grace does is in her own best interest which is what makes the next part stand out so much...

EVIDENCE 1: EVERY SACRIFICE GRACE MAKES IS FOR STEPH

think about it!! think about how much grace is totally fine being complicit with and outright being guilty for. max makes her question herself a little bit so she arranges a plot to make him less attractive to her and when she accidentally KILLS him shes thrilled!

she remains a nerdy prude, she got rid of the jagerman, AND she didnt sell crack so wins all around, really! he is also her only canon love interest and this is how she reacts. she also doesn't care much for richie or ruth, famously brushing off ruth's death by damning her to hell but she consistently makes sure that her plans to survive include steph (and pete but theyre a package deal)

(she also interrupts their duet which could be a sign of jealousy if she wouldnt have walked up to strangers and done the same thing)

she needs them on board with her plans! to grace they're a team. they're going to become canadians together, they're going to scale a wall, they're going to do all this crazy shit and steph's the only one who can get through to her for a moment or two. and here's my HUGE selling point...

where was grace during the cool as i think i am reprise?? i know story wise this scene holds more weight being just the two of them but like couldn't she have spoken up and go 'hey guys i have alternative that wont kill anybody'???? no she was going to let it go as far as it had to so she wouldn't have to give up what she cared for most.. AGAIN, she tends to be a bit selfish! she lets steph SHOOT pete - the bullet flies out of the gun, she lets pete get thrown around when max shows up. pete tries to protect steph by punching max but obviously that doesn't work and when does grace finally swoop in????

when the jagerman declares he's going to kill steph first for betraying him like she had. he threatens her and gets agressive calling her judas and that's when grace finally makes her decision that steph is worth the sacrifice. this scene is very deliberate - max famously hates pete the MOST it's almost like the writers needed an excuse to get grace to intervene and knew she wouldn't gaf if pete was the one in trouble.. much to think about!

and then again in the abstinence camp nightmare time grace goes out of her way for steph time and time again. she also can't hide how infatuated with her she is in this story. she says at one point that wherever steph goes, she'll go too to make sure she stays 'safe'.

ill get to how grace also lets steph down over and over again in later evidence sections to discuss how she feels about grace so i will not mention how many times grace screwed up in abstinence camp rn... okay???

grace literally risks her life for steph in this one after a series of plot points similar to the end of nerdy prudes where steph and pete think they've found a way to stop the villain, it fails ultimately, pete tries to save steph but grace is the one to swoop in and make the sacrifice in the end. she threw herself between steph and an AXE. she had no way to know that the woodsman would stop when he saw her - she was willing to get chopped in HALF for stephanie lauter. it's undeniable that grace cares more about her than anyone else in the entirety of hatchet field

she's also kind of possessive of steph i'm not even going to lie. sure she knows she just watched multiple die bloody, brutal deaths but steph simply MUST stay at camp and weave baskets with her! i also get the impression watching the end of npmd that she's the type that just inserts herself into pete and steph's interactions - she's not thirdwheeling, she's their FRIEND whether they like it or not!!

EVIDENCE 2: STEPH'S PERSPECTIVE AND THEIR CANON EVENT BREAKUPS

i fear that this yuri is probably unrequited and i can't log onto tumblr.com and BLAME her! grace oversteps and causes most of stephanie lauter's life problems.

she tells on her and pete for cheating on their test (jealousy or AGAIN, just grace's morals?) which snowballs into the rest of the plot, she gets her involved in a murder plot and then can't even cover it up properly

she has many 'i will never be your friend' scenes with her where she spells out all of her mistakes and they're always huge emotional moments for grace chastity that gives her some clarity and make her self-reflect but these scenes only mean this much to grace - steph never turns around and openly forgives grace or warms up to her anymore than she does with anyone else.. she even tells pete not to attempt to comfort her when she breaks down because she's being weird

this is the nicest she gets to her. she wont let grace turn herself in because they're in it together #beautiful moment (also another grace self-sacrificial moment when it comes to steph but this isn't about her rn)

in nightmare time grace gets steph sent to camp after she tells every trusted adult and football player that stephanie lauter IS PREGNANT and NEEDS TO BE SAVED !!! grace has to work through her emotions healthily and quit her hero-complex when it comes to steph and i think if she got to see the good side of her she'd get a crush on her back - she LIKES NERDS! but grace keeps screwing it up over and over again!

this is their nightmare time breakup. this leads the fucked up creature to experience remorse for her actions after she becomes secluded from stephanie lauter (for a girl who loves rules so much she questions them when it prevents her from seeing steph for the rest of the summer... thinking... thinking...) also steph does not forgive her in this one either! good for her! she doesn't owe grace anything just because she exhibited empathy for her

EVIDENCE 3: MISCELLANEOUS

Ruth points out that Steph is an outsider in the group Grace has formed to stopped the Jagerman to which grace enthusiastically jumps in and denies those bold claims saying that

"Steph's the most important part of the plan! You're the bait for our trap!" because as she explains in the Bully the Bully she thinks Steph has the charm to lure him in ... okay grace we literally get it!!! max jagerman is notoriously bi by the way she could have picked anyone to lure him in but she though steph fit the bill the best ... curious

a counselor at camp literally sees steph and grace hugging and feels like he has to step in because the affection's getting out of line! grace tells him that they're just friends to which he responds

CONCLUSION

before i got this yuri review i never considered holyphone was an option... but writing this im rocking with it. i think they have a fun dynamic and there's interesting shit to build upon there. they dont point it out but whenever grace and steph share the screen together grace's character development revolves around steph but could i really in good conscience give this ship a higher rating than others that i openly admitted wasnt one-sided just because i ship it....

I run this YURI REVIEW!

8.75/10

yuritastic!

[yurireviews]

For your consideration: HibiMiku from Senki Zesshou Symphogear (*pats Symphogear on the hood* This anime can fit so much Yuri in it!)

of course it could, it's a magical girl anime! *laugh track plays. i am so funny. i become the biggest blog on tumblr.com*

HIBIMIKU YURI REVIEW

yuri review's first review of an actual anime i think!!! i'm nervous!! also i don't think i've ever heard about this show but just by doing the littlest bit of research there is no doubt that these two characters are gay for eachother... but i have yet to discover the how, why, when, & where so walk with me as I review this yuri! yippee!!! ( i have not actually watched this show, spare my yuri soul when i get shit wrong)

EVIDENCE 1 - They Need to Give Each other Room to Breathe

(sorry yuriheads. even though horizontal photos work better for my post layouts most of their photos together are vertical... so sad!)

these two are 'roommates' and literally seem like they HAVE to do everything together or else they'll literally explode. they got bunkbeds but both are usually seen on the same mattress together... its usually the top bunk though and everyone knows thats the coolest. i remember watching american dad on the top bunk of a bed at a great american hotel back in my day.. there was an episode were stan turned to the camera addressed me by name and said "you need to review yuri on tumblr.com. dont use twitter. NO not tiktok either. use tumblr." and who am i to go against his orders. so you can't really call them gay for sharing the top bunk! you can call them gay for everything else they do though.

(this is a photo of them im pretty sure....)

they hold hands which is TYPICAL! every yuri ive ever reviewed has hold hands before! tv tropes is also telling me that they have scenes where miku wakes up to an empty bed while hibiki is off training for her magical girl business... so i would assume miku doesn't have powers and it's the outsider loved one left to stand and watch her wife (basically) run off into danger with her buddies and she could do nothing about it trope but apparently she does have powers and she has the whole time??? then why is hibiki always the one depicted as transformed into magical girl realness in fan and official art while miku is usually just standing there?? ive been picking up on some secret new theme that i feel like is me discovering some more depth to their dynamic

EVIDENCE 2 - But they're a million worlds apartttt

hibiki seems more impulsive and connected with the rest of the magical girl group than miku is. i hear there's a scene where miku is checking out a 'be honest with yourself book' right before she sees hibiki hanging out with another girl and she gets so pissed off she goes back into the closet and gives up! whats hibiki doing running around with all these other women?? she's always giving miku these emotional speeches and then hanging out with chris behind her back? who the hell is chris????????????

apparently this is chris. she looks too cool to be named chris. chris is the name of a guy wanting to go grab beers together after the big game and im not really getting those vibes from her.

but anyway hibiki gets in way more danger than miku does. apparently she outright DIES at one point which understandably leaves miku very distraught and upset - you would be too but i guess there's different timelines and faking of deaths and it's all very complicated sounding to me but it sounds like hibiki's in over her head and is too ambitious to stop putting herself in danger. she seems very self-sacrificing since she has the whole rallying cry 'i wont lose!' thing to show that she isn't going to let anyone else die. it reminds me of eliza and hamilton in a way... hmm thinking about this

anyway there's also the instance in season two where hibiki falls to the ground wounded and without a second thought miku runs to her to help her up but everyone's gotta hold her back or else she'll get burned if she touches her.

there is ONE! moment where i read that miku's the one in trouble - she goes missing and what the hell happens?? chris is there to help hibiki with the grieving process. chris is just being a good friend - hibiki's the one who gets a bit overbearing (maybe?)! hibiki whats going on lady! but to give her her credit hibiki loses her mind trying to get miku back so its all in good fun here.

EVIDENCE 3 - How many love confessions can one couple have???

so there are apparently numerous confessions within the first couple of episodes and they still act like it's a 'will-they-won't-they' crush and miku gets upset seeing her with other girls thinking that she likes them more when they're practically already dating and then there's the numerous countless song confessions - some happen under brainwashing, some are just for fun I think???

"I won't ever let you go I won't let you go far away. I love you this much look how much I love you"

is one of the lyrics so surely by now they're a canon couple???? no!! it's all to keep people tuned into the show i think since the gay moments section on tv tropes is miles long. the show is clearly targeting yuri-heads! back to the review, hibiki comes back from her mind-controlled song and goes 'tee-hee did I say all that to Miku?? she for sure knows i like her now!' but there are like eight different seasons afterwards and the show apparently ends with the two confessing to eachother AGAIN!

Miku: "There was something I've always wanted to tell you." Hibiki: "Yeah, me too. I hope what I want to tell you is the same thing you want to tell me."

WRAP IT UP! THEYRE YURI! NO BODY THINKS OTHERWISE! and on top of this there's vague scenes where they apparently probably kiss or even propose to one another??? TSPMO!

CONCLUSION

of course they're gay! everyone in this show is gay! what is going on! everyone in this show has a very very gay friendship!

i could see how their characters and dynamics are interesting to people but the show was written by cowards that should've just made them gay if they wanted to cause it's not just crush stuff or platonic they're basically dating the show just won't say it!!!!

magical girl more like magical gay...... guys am i washed...

i keep losing asks and then finding them again anyway here's rupphire

RUPPHIRE YURI REVIEW

if i referred to lumity as the founding fathers these two are the founding grandfathers.. they're iconic or whatever! also i'm back reviewing a show i've seen before so i'm going to be a lot more confident on this one. steven universe was full of toxic yuri and the only guys who really had their stuff together was rupphire even with their separation arc. there is a LOT to cover here so let's get into the review!!

EVIDENCE 1 - DEFIED FATE??? (NOT CLICKBAIT)

they were crazy for this... ruby was ordered to protect sapphire.. sapphire had forseen her death and was willing to let it happen to stop the rebellion (WHICH IS ALSO CRAZY BTW. crystal gems would've been no more if they weren't gay for eachother) ruby couldn't accept her failure/ sapphire's death and rushed in to save her just as pearl was about to slaughter her!!! AND THEY FUSED which is frowned upon for two different types of gems to do btw. and they did it around some of the most close minded gems in space

(big fan of this design)

and then blue diamond got on sapphire's case about it and ruby took the blame for it for a gem she barely knows. she does this also knowing she'd get a harsher punishment cause she's not a member of blue diamond's court and blue diamond orders her SHATTERING and sapphire grabs her and runs out of there. sapphire got the confidence to defy fate because of ruby and sapphire shows her that there's value in her life as an individual instead of as a soldier.. also they literally got fire and ice powers. rebecca sugar really ordered them to pull out all the stops for these two ig. they then both agree that fusion is actually really cool and they have a nice little bonding experience together

and they're still confused about eachother and everything and then they run into rose and pearl and say what you want about rose but she was a HUGE ally. just cause they were a fusion and rose was rocking with it, garnet joined the crystal gems!!

EVIDENCE 2 - Turn Around Kid, It'd Be a Crime

the next huge rupphire moment in chronological order (??? probably) is Jail Break and personally I think they're still going extremely strong.. could there be some codependent allegations .. maybe! but i think fusion may add a whole another layer of nuance on it that idk how to unpack cause im not a gem

anyway ruby is LOSING her mind being separated from sapphire. she's gotta get to her as quick as possible to make sure she's okay and no one else matters to her in this moment which IS sweet but one criticism i've seen before that i agree with in this scenario is that on their own ruby and sapphire gotta take it a little bit easier on steven... like ruby i know you're scared but that guy's probably scared out of his MIND! maybe explain a few things to him rn, the surprise is already ruined. she keeps running from him too! maybe watch the kid when he's wandering around the space ship of some very dangerous people!! but this review aint about steven now is it....

they reunite and it's very sweet!! their dynamic from when they first met is still very strong all these centuries later. sapphire sits in her cell singing, ACCEPTING whatever happens while ruby is reckless to do everything in her power to get back to her. when they reunite sapphire asks ruby if she's alright and ruby says "WHO CARES?" and sapphire responds "I DO!" which is very similar to the 'they were going to shatter you' 'who cares there's hundreds of me' conversation which is cool to see paralleled but i wish ruby had some more self love personally? idk if that makes sense. and then they refuse and garnet immediately locks in and comforts steven. garnet is the best of both worlds as she's grounded and can think more rationally.

and then stronger for you happens and garnet absolutely kicks jasper's ass. she outright says 'wow you're shit at fighting. maybe if you weren't such a SINGLE, LOSER, you'd be better!" garnet is here to stay and jasper can't do anything about it!

has anyone else seen the tweet implying that sans should've been cancelled for turning a song about being gay into a song about him killing a kid.. cause i agree with it and i think it needs to be said

EVIDENCE 3 - The First FIGHT.

the next episode is Keystone Motel where being in Pennsylvania almost ruins a centuries long relationship. no ACTUALLY they're arguing because pearl tricked them into fusing with her and I feel like they should both be able to react how they need to to the whole thing cause it was shitty of pearl to do! but they both feel as if they need to be on the same exact wavelength here in order to fuse again

(steven's just trying to enjoy his vacation bro. they really do not censor any of their problems around him)

ruby is upset that sapphire's trying to be 'above it all' which IS fair. ruby is a very emotional gem compared to sapphire and asking her to put it behind her is a BIT much!

sapphire is clearly upset too but she feels as if ruby won't hear her out or listen to reason so she feels as if she's not going to bother and she's just going to bide her time until ruby gets over it.

when they go to the diner for breakfast ruby gets so frustrated by everything she starts agressively shaking the table. she's acting out cause it seems as if Sapphire isn't really getting HOW this makes her feel and Sapphire tells steven and greg to just wait it out cause ruby will eventually burn out. then ruby flips the goddamned table and they keep arguing! steven straight up walks out of the restaurant and i can not blame him.

steven tells them that he feels like he's the reason that the gems can never get along and sapphire gets upset about this but the conversation quickly becomes about them expressing their feelings to one another. sapphire realizes that looking into the future to when times are better diminishes ruby's emotions in the present, and she cries about how horrible she must've made her feel. ruby says she didn't want a solution, she just wanted to be mad (still valid imo) and that she's STUPID and should've listened to sapphire. sapphire tells her that she doesn't think she's stupid! despite everything this episode it is sweet how sapphire is so quick to shut down ruby's negative self talk. ruby tells sapphire that she likes being able to look at her when they're split up and they start giggling and kissing and steven's vacation is still ruined and we haven't really spoke to him about this but then garnet re-fuses and immediately tries to turn it around for the kid by reminding him they can still get free ice!!!

EVIDENCE 4 - THEY FUMBLED THE BIG GAME!

in hit the diamond ruby and sapphire gotta unfuse so ruby can infiltrate the homeworld rubies that have came to earth looking for peridot so she can get them off her trail. this leads to a baseball game between the rubies and the crystal gems - the rubies are only allowed to search the barn IF they can beat them at baseball. this is very important so they can't fuck it up!

they spend the majority of the game flirting with eachother and sapphire's majorly fumbling. she hasn't hit a single ball cause she's so focused on ruby. the team is really stressed out about this and they have to be pulled aside to tell them to get their head in the game and they do try with all their might to do so! they're like drawn to eachother so much that they can't focus on ANYTHING else when they're not garnet.

when sapphire does get a homerun she runs to ruby and they fuse and accidentally ruin ruby's cover. garnet almost immediately realizes that she screwed up. the rubies would've gotten peridot IF they were looking for her but it turns out they wanted jasper so alls well that ends well.

EVIDENCE 5 - Ruby Rider is Ruby Riding Alone (DIVORCE ARC)

the next time garnet splits up is due to finding out that ROSE QUARTZ is PINK DIAMOND. and the tables are turned because ruby is the calmer one about this while sapphire feels as if her world was turned upside down. she is upset that she would listen to rose lie to her face and believe her and when ruby tells her she couldn't have known sapphire says "NO! YOU couldn't have known. You never know what is going on! I should've though! ruby wants to talk it out but sapphire says that their relationship was based on a lie?? i'm not exactly getting her reasoning here but emotions are high. all rose did was give them the thumbs up - their relationship was built upon them seeing eachother as actual people and being willing to defy fate for one another.

in reality it's less about her doubting garnet and ruby and more her being furious and thinking that rose would've listened to her and told her anything she wanted to hear just so she had more numbers for her army. it's also about the friends she lost in the war and being involved in something that she feels pink had the power to stop on her own. but pearl fills her in on everything, how rose adored the two of them and was so amazed by their fusion and how they inspired her to build a home on earth since she viewed it as a place where anything could happen and where gems could be anything they wanted to. sapphire feels better about the whole thing and then remembers what she had done to ruby and rushes to go talk to her but ruby's gone.

ruby left a note telling sapphire that she was right and she decided to run away. she drew a heart next to her signature but scribbled it out. not because she doesn't love sapphire anymore but because she probably feels like sapphire doesn't want to be with her anymore. sapphire tries to use her future vision to see if she'll come back but she can't get a good prediction because ruby's such a spontaneous person that she could've done many, MANY things and sapphire calls that wonderful. she's someone sapphire has never been able to predict.

(i'm rewatching some of these episodes and i can't remember if there's a story related reason why amethyst just doesn't gaf about ruby being missing or pink diamond?? is it just avoidant coping?)

amethyst and steven find ruby and she says she kind of likes being on her own and she understood what sapphire was saying about them only being together because rose said they were 'the answer' (they were kinda together before that???) ruby says her future is going to be about her and not what sapphire wants. which is a little extreme and is for sure just her trying to come to terms with things quicker BUT i have been saying that ruby views herself very poorly and that i'd like to see her build some confidence so maybe this isn't half bad. even greg is saying that this could be good for her.

when ruby is thinking up what she wants to do/go first steven hands her a wild west comic as inspiration and there's a cowboy on the cover walking away from a woman in a blue dress with hair deliberately drawn to cover one of her eyes so only one is visible as she reaches for him. no way is this woman not supposed to be sapphire, i just don't know how to interpret this? ruby seems pumped about this idea. is it just her relating to the guy on the cover? romanticizing her independence so MUCH that she doesn't have time to miss sapphire?? her liking that the guy IS able to be content away from the woman who loves him? who knows?

ruby rider is thriving! her confidence IS growing because she can take risks and still end up okay. she sings a whole song and everyone is saying "as long as she's happy" but then she says "yeah, i'd be happier if i was with sapphire" and she feels bad about it. steven kind of tells her she could be happy being her own person but also be happy with sapphire at the same time then brings up the comic again and shows her that the cowboy still misses the girl he loves too.

ruby wants things to start over completely on her and sapphire's terms so she asks her to marry her which is very sweet!! i like how this arc ended up.

EVIDENCE 5 - MARRIAGE. (+ MORE)

then they get married! it's very sweet. ruby tells her she used to feel like she wasn't good on her own but now she knows it's okay to just be her and that she wants to be herself with sapphire. sapphire confirms that when ruby saved her all those years ago she gave her the ability to see multiple possibilities and not just one future. they changed each others' lives!

very iconic scene. doesn't tell us a whole lot of new things about the couple which is why i'm keeping it brief. they purposefully made ruby wear the dress because some countries made her into a man so they didn't show lesbians on a cartoon which forced those countries to either not air the episode (which had a lot of important plot moments) or to keep it as it is which is a cool fact. also some blame this episode for getting the show cancelled early? i don't think that's 100% true but it truly does show how much of a predecessor it was to the owl house.

the movie doesn't really do anything ground breaking for the two of them either since spinel just turned back time and they pretty much just recreate the time they first met with sapphire predicting ruby will die to protect her but instead they fuse and it's just them redoing the same development stuff. the only thing is that ruby is really impressed by sapphire's future vision and sapphire likes that.

in steven universe future they do unfuse and got their own things going on and are supportive of eachother's interests and everything. there's no more conflict between the two. the only problem is that the whole 'you need to wait for them to become garnet to get a good response from them' thing is still prevalent cause they tell steven it's a good idea to propose to connie and garnet gotta be there to help him after her rejection.

CONCLUSION

they grew as people together and are the most famous cartoon lesbians ever so there's no world in which they're getting a BAD score. they work best together but are still capable on their own (just not on raising a kid.. they need some work on that. garnet's awesome at it though) . i love the characters from steven universe. they're so complex and none of them are perfect ANYWAY

final verdict...

9.50/10

another tough one to beat

yuritastic!

[yurireviews]

i LOVE your yuri reviews SO much. consider reviewing cassapril (cassandra jones x april o'neil) from rise of the tmnt!! they had so much potential </3

ok considering... 123.... i'll do it!

CASSAPRIL YURI REVIEW

this yuri is really underground indie stuff. barely anything in their tumblr tag so it was hard to get a grasp on it but thank goodness my best friends shippining wiki and rottmnt wiki were there to help me. frankly, im surprised this ship hasn't gone platinum since it's a fun dynamic and one step away from being canon. join me and watch this teenage mutant ninja turtle rise...

( i know very little about teenage mutant ninja turtles.)

EVIDENCE 0.5 - THEY ARE DATING IN OTHER UNIVERSES

(BARE WITH ME HERE I KNOW THAT PHOTO IS OF A MAN AND WOMAN...)

you mean to tell me, tumblr user yurireviews, that in almost every other version of this story cassandra and april are dating/married/at least have some sort of feelings towards one another... but in the one version where cassandra is a WOMAN... they're just really good friends.. i am not falling for that! it's the coward's way out! if two characters fall in love every OTHER universe chances are they love each other in ROTTMNT... this point adds on atleast three extra yuri points before i even get into the actual show i'm talking about because come on... it's happened before it could very well happen again....

EVIDENCE 1 - They Have Similar Personalities

and it seems to be relevant to the plotline of the always be brownies episodes?? splinter outright tells casey that both her and april have difficulty reaching their goals and that casey shouldn't give up on hers cause april wouldn't.

they're both very energetic, lively people who are quick to jump into action or do what they personally believe is right. they both also have strong emotions & can't easily hide/mask who they are. the difference is that april appears to be more self-assured. if the turtles are being stupid she'll tell them they are, while casey is loyal to a FAULT because the situation she's in doesn't have a team dynamic. it's just 'we're your higher ups and you'll listen to what we say no matter what' and she goes along with it. splinter apparently helps her see that she deserves better than that but they do not have a whole lot of interactions outside of the always be brownies episode... HOWEVER! they are said to be closer friends/allies than casey with anyone else so that's something!

EVIDENCE 2 - FUN Dynamic in Theory!

cassandra's more uptight & strict and she's nerdier but has a more stereotypical bad-ass type persona than april does. she's also a reformed villain and april's a very forgiving person. april needs more friends that aren't turtles as her not being a mutant apparently causes her to feel as if she doesn't fit in. they ALSO started out as rivals which is always interesting - especially since their rivalry never was 'someone may die'-extreme. they would take each other seriously and be a good team together. personally i feel like ex-villain turned girl friend storyline is a lot more interesting than the other versions where casey is a dude cause that's really all he's bringing to the table. from what i can tell/remember from seeing episodes in passing was that he was just some guy? and apparently many saw his advances in the 2012 version as harassment so i feel like ROTTMNT cassapril is a HUGE step up which seems to be the common census.

also there's time travel (??) later on and april becomes friends with cassandra's kid which becomes funnier if she's dating his mom

CONCLUSION

short yuri review sorry since i can't find a lot of canon evidence of them together but i totally see it and honestly i think it should've happened!! a lot of people are intimidated by putting yuri in their shows because they're scared of me and know i'll be there so sorry about that.

it would've been so fun if they were canon.. the turtle nation could've had it all....

my final verdict

8.75/10

the only lost of points is just due to their lack of interaction in rottmnt

yuritastic!

[yurireviews]

my yuri reviews stand strong after that episode!!

[yurireviews]

rosemary review when! (rose lalonde x kanaya maryam)

rosemary's a nice name

ROSEMARY YURI REVIEW

this will be extremely difficult for me because i have never read homestuck and so i must atleast learn to understand their characters throughout all of homestuck or my reputation as the yuri reviewer will be stomped on and dragged through the mud and dog shit... i need to call on the powers of toby fox... so come on this journey with me and we'll review this yuri.... together

apparently shit has been retconned and there are sequels that are basically canon to some people but not really?? this is going to be all over the place

EVIDENCE 1 - They Find Eachother in Every Universe or Something??

they're also canonically married in one so checkmate. anyway from what i've gathered, their relationship is a little bit rocky, and it mainly appears to be caused by dirk or personal problems - like kanaya's insecurities or rose avoiding talking about her feelings and her alcholism but no matt er what they're always together at some point and that's downright beautiful. sure, they get divorced in some universes but you can't win them all. that's asking for way too much. also apparently kanaya's doing a LOT of the heavy lifting in the 'being in love' across timelines/universes/whatever stuff cause it continues strong into the sequel while rose seems to be more of a controversial figure

UNIVERSE BREAKDOWN!!!!!

B2 - where their relationship began. they go on the meteor journey together, kiss, and when asked if they're dating they say maybe. i think this is the universe where they do have SOME flaws but not enough where it's incredibly toxic. it's moreso tragic since rose dies without ever expressing the full extent of her feelings to kanaya.

EARTH C - doing good. from what i've gathered earth c is best case scenario for these guys and they are happily married here and both important political figures. (i think meat and candy branches off from here in homestuck 2?)

MEAT TIMELINE - rose chooses to ascend to godhood and kanaya had been told that she wasn't good enough for her. they break up before the events of homestuck 2 and it's not going very great. rose's choice surrounding godhood means leaving kanaya behind and she still chooses to do it.

CANDY TIMELINE - Also going good! they adopt a grub together and are married while apparently everything else is going to shit. apparently rose does cheat on kanaya in this timeline?? idk some people claim that was not the case and it was just her being a surrogate parent?? one thing everyone does agree on in this instance is that rose DID screw kanaya over and break her trust quite a bit. so that actually isn't awesome. i'd make a bigger deal over this if i 1. knew what was happening and 2. knew if this was canon.

for what it's worth they really are in for the long haul!

EVIDENCE 2 - Similar Interests + Personalities

the way that the two 'first meet' is through kanaya reading rose's guide to sburb and kanaya becomes a big fan of her and her work immediately. so right off the bat, they're both into sburb. rose is also a fan of obscure literature and creative writing while kanaya's a fan of horror and romance novels. also neither of them are above resorting to violence. this is nice cause they're more likely to have things to talk about and see things from the other person's perspective.

personality wise, rose is very sarcastic, smart, and has built high walls around herself as she's ashamed of people knowing about some of her interests and isn't one to talk about her emotions or be very affectionate. meanwhile, kanaya IS very affectionate and seems to not have a lot of troll traits, I guess? she's very calm, supportive, and logical but willing to do tough things for the greater good. kanaya was hesitant towards trolling rose and accidentally trolls john instead who does some damage to kanaya's perception of rose but even after that major fumble... they still get together... kanaya historically tries to stop rose from getting herself into dangerous situations and rose is grateful for it. rose also doesn't try to hide how happy she is around kanaya which is sweet.

also, i see that one of rosemary's biggest downfalls is that people claim rose doesn't respect Kanaya enough and she doesn't really support her the way she supports her. this will be taken into account.

EVIDENCE 3 - Even More Tragedy

(very hard to find canon panels of them that aren't from this scene)

rose begun to regret how she treated kanaya whenever she was drunk and feels like she's taken her for granted or let her down and then as soon as she wants to do better in her relationship kanaya gets killed by Condesce leading rose to try to kill that person in revenge but then SHE gets killed too. as she's dying she admits that she loved her.. that's like some sort of shakesperian shit i think.

ALSO kanaya is represented by moths and rose is a light player. so kanaya first reading sburb and becoming infatuated with rose was her flocking to her like a 'moth to a flame'. they get extra points for that cause i like that metaphor.

CONCLUSION

they're far from the perfect couple but they seem to be pretty iconic to the homestuck fandom. also homestuck seems like the type of thing where you're not going to find wholesome, healthy relationships so just be glad with what you got. that being said i'm going to add a whole extra point to what i would naturally rate them just as an apology to homestuck community for everything i forgot or didn't pick up on.

my final score

7.5/10

the characters seem really fun

[yaoireview]

i need you to do me a favor and review noel gruber and misha bachynskyi.. ride the cyclone.. or else theyll find me please

oh my god are you okay? is everything alright?? okay I'll DO IT JUST TELL THEM TO GIVE YOU TIME

NISHA YAOI REVIEW (SLIME TUTORIAL WITHOUT BORAX)

You may be new to how I go about my work, cycloners, but I'm going to need to show my reasoning for my verdict.

I'm orderly, I'm not gonna be like every other joe saying "Guys I think Noel likes men.. I dunno though dont be mad at me if im wrong.. it was just what i thought.." I'm MORE like "YES. Noel is gay. And heres why."

Please listen to my ted talk

EVIDENCE 1: THEY'RE JUST GAY CONSTANTLY IM NOT GONNA PRETEND TO TRY TO PUT IT IN SEPERATE SECTIONS

Alright well.. theres a lot of gay moments but honestly I don't think the part where they're actually SITTING on the cyclone is gay.. I'm sure many are going to think "yeah clearly if anything it was just to build off of other points to show that they atleast got along" well SHUT UP. GOD..

How would you feel, if.. I dunno, YOU were in a truman show situation, and one day your high school teacher pairs you up with a kid that bullies you constantly but JUST because the people sitting at home dont know that, they think you're GAY. YOU LIKE MEN.

I don't actually think thats what is happening with Misha and Noel just something to think about is all..

Well Noel and Misha dance together in the opening song that's pretty cool

Also at a point where they all huddle together since they're scared or SOMETHING i DUNNO,

Misha seems to be pretty uncomfortable about it though so he backs away from Noel and the group shortly after

okay theres a lot of gay choreography is it fine that I just say it now that they're gay as hell with their.. poses.. and.. dances..

Just.. imagine they're making out constantly ALRIGHT..I dunno what else you want me to say.

EVIDENCE 2: NOEL'S LAMENT

nothing gay actually happens at this part, I honestly thought they were just friends here.

EVIDENCE 3: EVERYTHING ELSE

Good thing Misha was able to clear everything up by telling them that its NATURAL for two men to show affection by kissing! Calm down!

Also he's not homophobic, this is GOOD news!

Now we cannot also forget the woman that is truly in Misha's gaze, Talia.

You can see the anguish in his eyes, he truly loves her. Talia is someone he holds dear to his heart, even though he has never met her in real life.

There's a good chance that the projection image of Talia is just what Misha imagined her to look like, as from what I've seen he never states if he's actually ever saw her (He probably did in some regard from a photo but we can't exactly be sure). She may not even be real, and it might just be someone messing with Misha and catfishing him.

The thing is that Misha has never doubted Talia the entire time that he's known her, he never questioned her existence and she was probably the best thing going on in his life before he died due to his mom being deceased, and he died, never being able to meet her and never being able to get with her, baby.

now for the matter of this review, even though his love for her is honest and beautiful, this is NOT good. LOOK at the song ending description for GODS sake.. It's not good..

FRIENDS?? TO HELL WITH THAT!! But.. hey.. Noel DID reach out to Misha.. this could still be good.. its still a net negative but we did gain something from this..

After the song, when Karnak offers to show Misha what Talia looks like, Noel convinces him not to, since whatever vision that Misha had of her shouldn't be ruined because of what he learned when he died. This was emotionally moving to Misha and he agreed, Love CONQUERS all.. It must've meant a lot to him since he hugged Noel and cried into his arms.

Later, after Ocean says something but WHO CARES really.. Misha says that he'd vote for Noel to come back to life, and Noel said he'd do the same for Misha

This was great for their relationship but ocean just had to SCREW IT ALL UP, because of her pride and because of her ego..

She always gets like this when she's around gay people.. cant take her ANYWHERE.

Misha and Noel later sit down together and Misha offers him some alcohol that he had since it was a birthday.

They talk a little and Misha tells him that its a shame since Noel's life was TRAGIC and that he is TRAGIC. He made him weep even looking at him..

Noel actually thought this was a nice thing of him to say and so he rests his head on his shoulder. Pretty gay if you ask me, unless you and your bros are resting their head on your shoulders as you tell them that everything will be alright as the sun goes down

CONCLUSION

There was some other snippets that I definitely missed, like if you want to include they jam out together in Sugar Cloud then FEEL free but I think I have enough

They both seem gay to me.. I dunno.. Noel definitely is.. its up in the air with this sorta stuff.. its a guessing game..

[yurireviews]

Since you’re already covered Sashannarcy. The second Poly ship potential you could look Up “Polytrix” from the recent Netflix movie Kpop Demon Hunters with Rumi x Zoey x Mira.

There’s even some people like myself who believe they remind them of Anne, Marcy and Sasha from Amphibia but their adults/timeskip version with some similarities (surface level at least).

ive never seen ship wars so rampant in years as i have with kpop demon hunters so im frightened but ill be damned if i dont review this yuri

POLYTRIX YURI REVIEW

let the record show that i watched this movie with an open mind and an open heart. i had seen TikTok edits of a wide array of ships and i had no clue where i would end up. i could still easily be swayed in any direction that the wind blows me since the movie didn't really go THAT in depth on the girls' relationship with one another but there is some crucial evidence that i believe in and will share with you today.

EVIDENCE 1 - Mira is VERY Jealous of Jinu

mira is the only member of huntrix that i feel was uninterested in the saja boys. so what she appreciates their abs?? doesn't matter if she hates who they're attached to! but you want to know what mira IS focused on in this scene? cause it aint the men surrounding her OR the fans that she clearly loves but RUMI talking with Jinu??? and then encouraging their fans to support him? some may say mira constantly bringing him up is just astonishment that rumi is so civil with a demon but i beg to say that she got some sort of wlw crush on rumi...

she herself claims she's really good at reading people which is why she almost asks rumi for reassurance about HER hating jinu cause she senses there's something else there between them and she is both defensive & awkward about it. this has to go a little bit beyond the whole 'we HATE demons' thing because zoey is not trying to hide the fact that she's fawning over the saja boys so the problem for mira is very specifically about RUMI and JINU. she's also probably the most aggressive towards jinu for a saja boy that doesn't really bother her at all.... thinking...thinking....123..... this scene also ends with her saying that she thinks the demons are just getting to her and that's why she's so confrontational towards rumi and she can't wait for them to all be gone and for her to have time to pursue a lesbian relationship with both of her band members...

there's also the train scene where mira outright says shut up about the song, i know that's not the real reason why you're acting like this. she knows rumi is hiding something but there's no way she can possibly know that she's a demon (if she even has the slightest idea it isn't a conscious thought) so what she really is this mad about is the possibility that rumi likes jinu and rumi tells her that not everything's about her insecurities!! what are mira's biggest insecurities.. something something being unlovable/ being seen as too much (calls herself a difficult person) so her biggest fear here IS abandonment in some way and that's really effed up (the getting hypnotised by the saja boys scene reinforces this)

EVIDENCE 2 - In DEFENSE of Mira & Zoey

i have gotten a bad reputation from my sashannarcy yuri review of being strict and brutal with my yuri reviews and if you've read that you would probably expect me to remove some points from polytrix for some final scenes... but i will NOT! no one is to blame in the scene where mira and zoey hold rumi at gunpoint... they weren't suddenly motivated to kill rumi dead in that instance... LOOK at them. they were upset, they didn't know what was true or fake cause their entire world was just turned upside down. in no world were they going to hurt rumi. them holding up their weapons was just what they felt like they HAD to do but didn't WANT to.... also while we're at it

since this scene occurs almost immediately after some may come to the conclusion that rumi was that hurt solely by what zoey and mira did which is just the beginning of it!!! this is about everything in rumi's life leading up to this and her feeling like as a demon she needs to be ashamed of herself and won't ever be truly accepted.. this ship isn't toxic and it ain't even that codependent btw...

EVIDENCE 3 - Zoey.

universally i feel like zoey is strong evidence towards polytrix but no one really has the words to say so. no way is she straight.. she seems in love with everyone at all times. she's just a girl with a big heart and that obviously extends to her girls in huntrix!

first of all she writes ALL of huntrix's songs but sings very very little and writes parts for rumi and mira... the songs DONT WORK unless they're ALL there and this is all part of zoey's plans.. also mira choreographs and made it so there's a part in golden where her and zoey outright leave the stage to let rumi have her moment. these girls love eachother. that's undeniable. the question is just if it's romantic or not.

she also never argues with mira or rumi even with the arguments over the saja boys and everything are going on. she doesn't want to pick sides cause she can't handle losing either of them. zoey is the glue holding this band together and she also wants to go the bathhouse with them rn if that's alright with everyone

EVIDENCE 4 - Rumi's Story is an Allegory For Coming Out

YEAH the director said "we used to always compare it, as like, rumi's story as like, she's coming out of the closet. coming to her parent, who is like wanting her to be something that she is not." and i know an allegory is very different from the story itself BUT it makes sense. we don't have a lot of evidence from rumi on polytrix because the whole movie when the girls don't know the truth about her she is distant from them. almost like she's keeping her distance from them. almost like there are things she doesn't want to admit. like the honmoon turning gold and making her not a demon anymore is like her waiting for her feelings to subside but AFTER mira and zoey find out and after the initial shock they are way closer than we've seen them.. and I KNOW she liked jinu but she could be bi.

CONCLUSION

there is not a whole hell of a lot yuri evidence for these three but the little that there is, IS very convincing. i dare to say i convinced myself over the course of this review that they are canon because when i initially watched this movie i wasn't really seeing it and i think that IS because we see it from rumi's point of view and she is distanced from the girls cause she's ashamed of herself and everything. this yuri has a lot of room to grow from here in the scenario that it does branch off into a franchise or something.

they also ARE very sashannarcy coded. i thought that when i watched the movie and as i've already admitted i haven't even seen amphibia.

my final verdict.

7.88/10

yuritastic!
