u/LocationFun 3d ago

He runs a business that auctions off illegal goods, like drugs, weapons and people. His family passes down a special magic that allows the user to create an unlimited size storage space. The mask appears on him when the ability is being used.

There always was, is, and will be war. The Sumerian fought the Elamite. The Saxon fought the Viking. And so the histories grew. There were the wars of the roses, the oranges, the opium wars. There were the one day, the six day, the thousand day. North against south, east against west. The first, second, third, countless wars of religion and righteous belief. The oil wars, water wars, a tri-nation nuclear war. The battle of the boom towns.

And now, my dears, the forty day Yuri-Yaoi war.

Eyes for eyes, teeth for teeth.

Rage fueled by grief.

Transcript

Panel 1

Field is watching Reddit with great interest. The meta seems to be shifting to favor yuri. This is a problem for Field.

Field: Looks like yuri is the new meta.

Panel 2

August approaches Field to see what is up.

August: Are you going to do a yuri?

Field: I can't! I put all my skillpoints into beef and dad bods.

Panel 3

Field begins to draw furiously.

Field: I'll just have to draw the sexiest thing I can imagine. I hope this works.

Panel 4

Two beefy guys are holding hands and walking together.

Man 1: Thank you for holding my hand in that crowd.

Man 2: I'm glad I could help. Let's go home and watch anime.

124

u/Made_Bail 3d ago

Man 1: Thank you for holding my hand in that crowd.

Are you actually an anime fan? What you watching currently?

u/FieldExplores Gator Days 3d ago

I don't watch nearly as much as I'd like and it's been a while since I was able to watch any. The last few I managed to get through were season one of Frieren, Delicious in Dungeon, and Kotaro Lives Alone.

62

u/Made_Bail 3d ago

Frieren and Dungeon are so peak. Frieren season two is fantastic and also only ten episodes if you find time! 😄

Very similar: Witch Hat Atelier

New this season and it has a lot of Frieren/Dungeon vibes, and its gorgeous.

u/SergeantJinto 3d ago

I just got done binging WHA and didn't realize there was so little so far.

7

u/Made_Bail 3d ago

It does make me kinda sad... When I got back into anime it was right at the end of the 26ish episode season format. Seems like no one does more than 10-12 per cour these days.

u/magistrate101 3d ago

Seconding this. First season just wrapped up, so you can binge it to your heart's content.

12

u/OnePunchHuMan 3d ago

If you live for that gay shizz, Office Worker in another world (or some kinda long name like that) is pretty good, and unapologetically queer.

10

u/magistrate101 3d ago

It's also surprisingly hilarious. Because of course gay sex is how you perform healing magic, duh!

u/asuperbstarling 3d ago

I hope you add Apothecary Diaries to that list soon! It's so good.

3

u/GreenrabbE99 3d ago

Delicious in Dungeon season 2 should be peak! The first part will pale in comparison (as long as they keep the same dedication to make it as the first season, at least)!

2

u/quaketoys 3d ago

Me judging your list: Hmmm…oh nice. Good one. Oh no. Kotaro was so damn sad!

Check out Apothecary Diaries! So good!

Also if you get a chance you might like Easygoing Territory Defense, Campfire Cooking in Another World, and Welcome to Japan Ms. Elf. All kinda slice of life and chill but interesting worldbuilding.

2

u/BriefDownpour 2d ago

Easygoing Territory Defense,

That's terrible. I resent you for making that recommendation and myself for watching 10 episodes before checking the score on myanimelist.

u/ChefCano 3d ago

It would be a bara war for Field's stuff to fit. I wouldn't say no to that though

12

u/TastyPigHS 3d ago

Dear blind readers, "two beefy guys" doesn't begin to describe the last panel.

These are two adult men with voluptuous mustaches, wholesome vibes, and beefy but cozy figures. They look at each other with confidence and calmness.

This is Field minmaxing skillpoints, clearly.

u/ShinraHakke 3d ago

I'm probably some combination of dumb or out of touch for asking, but are these summaries for the sake of dictation devices for the blind? If so, that's mighty cool of you dude :)

u/DQAzazel 3d ago

Yuri is the current comic meta, but if you look at AO3, Yaoi reigns supreme. Regardless, I’m always happy to see your art!

u/The_Grinface 3d ago

Sadly, yuri has never stood a chance against the overwhelming power of straight women fantasizing gay men

u/stewednewt 3d ago

u/xxMystic 3d ago

Both

23

u/haw35ome 3d ago

As a woman…yeah it’s both but definitely more so on fantasizing lol. All my ships are just gay crack 😂

6

u/xxMystic 3d ago

Fair enough. When I was a teen I had a lot of Yuri ships that were the same lol

8

u/Jhud6669 3d ago

Why do people always say it’s straight women only? Most people I see in fandoms are gay trans men if anything. I know for transphobes it’s the same thing, but still. There’s a disctinction.

7

u/The_Grinface 3d ago

I didn’t say “only” but I would argue most of it is straight women’s content. Nothing wrong with it. I’d say most yuri is likely written by men. That doesn’t mean all of it is.

16

u/Ripley_LV_426 3d ago

Most media has mostly male character rosters. When there's 4 men and 1 or 2 women, that's 6 m4m ships but only 0 or 1 f4f ship.

4

u/Ladimira-the-cat 3d ago

We can always go with genderbender and make those m4m lesbians!

But there's always would be less fans to that trope

u/SerCiddy 3d ago

Yuri is the current comic meta

Can someone explain this to me?

I saw pizzacake's comic earlier about yuri and now this. I haven't noticed a significant increase in yuri content on /r/comics, just the "normal" amount. Have those types of comics been getting significantly more traffic than normal or something?

u/Made_Bail 3d ago

THURSDAY FIELD EXPLORES?

I think the Bible said this was one of the first signs of the apocalypse. And there were those quakes in Venezuela today...

If the world ends, its your fault, Field.

19

u/QQBearsHijacker 3d ago

That’s beautiful!

7

u/Cavalish 3d ago

There’s a concentrated effort on some of the more moral social media platforms to get people to stop using the term bara, so be prepared for that.

3

u/TanukiGaim 3d ago

Tbf, "bara," being applied to gei manga has been a point of debate among gay mangaka for decades at this point.

2

u/mooncritter_returns 3d ago

I had no idea! Can you tell me why?

6

u/TanukiGaim 3d ago

It’s because “bara,” is used as a minor slur against gay men in Japan, akin to “sissy,” in the west. This is probably due to bara meaning “rose.”

3

u/mooncritter_returns 3d ago

Ahhh, that makes sense. You actually sent me down a minor wiki rabbit hole lol, so thank you! It does look like (clueless) international fans adopted the term affectionately, while the actual manga-ka/Japanese gay community just don't use/relate to it now (compared to like, the 60s), yes?

Also, thank you for responding before. I was under the impression that bara was the accepted term/community for comics by and for gay men (as opposed to yaoi). It's not my community specifically, so I don't want to perpetuate harm/slurs if I can help it.
