12 Days of Anime 2025, Day 12We conclude, as always, with some yuri manga I read this year where they weren’t high schoolers.Asagiiro no SaudadeSaudade is a potent enough form of longing that it’s managed to get its own Wikipedia page. For this manga it’s invoking angst, childhood friends reuniting as adults, and a pledge to write manga together or die trying. These are all tropes I’ve seen around, though maybe not combined in this exact way.What really makes this manga interesting is its straightforward and brutal depiction of Ren’s dysphoria. There’s a handful of gendery manga out there about wanting to be a girl and hating yourself for it, but surprisingly few about the inverse, despising the shackles of womanhood placed onto you by society and struggling for self-understanding and actualization. Here is one. With only the first volume out at the time of writing, anything could happen with this manga, but I really hope it does not drop the ball with this particular plot thread, because it could really be something special.Ebisu-san to Hotei-sanI’m movin’ different. This shit ain’t nothin’ to me, gal. I’m a princess. I’m bitin’ the GL on Christmas. We smokin’ Lillicious. Smokin’ that Hachimitsu-Scans, late 2000s, office ladies, blushy faces, Akira Kizuki kush. We smokin’ shoujo ai. I’m on 12 Vicodins, smokin’ on nondescript systems development careers. We smokin’ family drama. We snortin’ that good coworkers to lovers, crying at the office, cute shit. They must have cheerful amnesia. They forgot that I’m her. That Dynasty-Scans pack hittin’. That lily smell like a Hellcat V8. We smokin’ shit on a Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite, blowin’ the Lord’s manga. I’m sick in the head. I’m on them Batoto updates. I’m on that Gunjou grindset. I left my yuri goggles in the Benz trunk. I’ll have to stunt on them next time. I don’t give a fuck if I get baited. I don’t need to see the confession anyway.(and a happy new year)
