Best Yuri Competition Grand Finals
The final contest, the final match is now upon us.
It seems Still Sick's support finally wavered in the face of our top seed, losing by a massive margin. Another well supported series, Green Tea Bitch, also lost but by nowhere near as much. The battle on the right side of the bracket was fierce indeed, but Love Triangles won 51.3/48.7
So now it is Bloom Into You, a beautiful story about identity and the intersection of reality and fantasy, against An Easy Introduction to Love Triangles, to Pass the Exam!, a heartwarming tale of love and being accepted for who you are. Who will win? Who will join Citrus in the hall of Certified Official Best Yuri(tm)? Let's find out.
