Yuri Kuma was so ahead of the game in 2015 making the human girls cops and fascists and straightforwardly declaring it is actually not bad but based and divine of bears to kill them in the name of resistance and survival, only for half the people who watch it to stop on the braindead "the bears are out lesbians" trope take and get mad about Ginko's "wrongs" being "justified by the narrative"
I'm sorry ginko you truly are the lone wolfsbane. You're my perfect narrative princess who did no wrong and deserve your promise kiss that you earned with discourse and drama, just like Canonical Hero of Homestuck Dirk Strider
through all my years of absolutely adoring Yuri Kuma Arashi, I have never drawn fanart of it, which is just baffling to me. YKA was such a formative piece of media for me in middle school, and has shaped my aesthetic sensibilities as an artist, and as I’ve been rewatching it recently, I decided now would probably be a good time to try and do the show justice with my art. Go watch Yuri Kuma Arashi guys, it’s awesome.
that one part in yurikuma ep 4 where lulu's trying to kill her 3 y/o baby brother for like three minutes and she keeps going "desire" and keeps failing over and over and then in episode 11 ginko's like "desire is nothing compared to true love" and in the end lulu reunites with her baby brother and they say "i love you" to each other
SO ANYWAY ITS A MAGICAL GIRL SHOW/ DRAMA WHERE BEARS TURN INTO HUMANS TO INFILTRATE AN ALL- GIRLS SCHOOL TO FIND ONE BEAR’S CHILDHOOD FRIEND/CRUSH. BEARS AND “BEING EATEN” IS A METAPHORE FOR ACCEPTING YOUR SEXUALITY AND HOW WE FETISHIZE GAY MEDIA BUT HATING IT IN REAL LIFE IS LIKE HOW WE LOVE TEDDY BEARS BUT WILL NOT HESITATE TO CAPTURE AND KILL A REAL BEAR. KUREHA SPENDS THE ENTIRE SERIES STRUGGLING TO ACCEPT THE FACT SHE’S A LESBIAN BECAUSE SHE WAS RAISED TO KILL BEARS. ITS CREATED BY THE GUY WHO DIRECTED THE UTENA MOVIE SO YOU KNOW ITS GOOD ANYWAY IF YOU WANNA COME OVER I CAN SHOW YOU THE FIRST FEW EPISODES - -
i love this anime so much!!!! it has been rotting in my brain!!!!!!!
anyways have ship art of these four girls. i want them all to be happy and in love
anyways, yuri approved! :)
so good ! it's been on my to watch list for quite a while, i had no idea what it was about other than the description of an asteroid explosion caused bears to attack, and i didn't look into the title much, so the entire show caught me completely off guard!
it's only 12 episodes, a really good story, and i genuinely recommend it. i'm so glad i finally got myself to watch it.
