Review for Yuri Hyakkei
Come see 100 scenes of girl love in this adorable and sweet manga!
So once again on the hunt for some new Yuri manga to enjoy when I bumped against this one. 100 scenes of girls love? Sign me up. That sounds like a dream! In this one we follow a whole bunch of girls as they make their way through school and love. You will see friendships bloom, some sisterly love, but mostly and importantly tons of girls loving girls. Demanding soft kisses, or wanting to test out if elbows are as fluffy as boobs (or vice versa), or wanting a bit more than all that (oh my).
I have to say I eventually started to see the couples and recognises some as they passed by more often, but at times I just didn’t have a clue if I had already seen the girls in question. I know bad, but really, I was just too focused on the sweet romance to have my head remember their names and faces. 😛 Not to mention, there are a lot of girls! So in the end I was just rooting for everyone and enjoying seeing relationships blossom (or die if one of the girls was just wayyyy to oblivious to what was going on).
I loved how the 100 scenes were presented. Sometimes with a one page comic, sometimes with a couple of pages, and also quite a few times with just one illustration on a page sweet goodness.
It is all very clean and pure, we do see some bras and panties, and of course sometimes it goes a bit ecchi, but never too far. While it was a bit frustrating at points, as I wanted to see more at times, I also think it wouldn’t have fitted with the manga if they went full fanservice/ecchi. So despite my frustrations, I am glad that they didn’t go further.
The art is really fun and cute, it really shines during the one page illustrations.
All in all, a shame that this one ends at 100 scenes, I wouldn’t mind another 200 or 400 or 1000 scenes with these girls (and others). I would recommend this one to all if you are looking for a cute, sweet, fluffy, hilarious, yuri manga.
