Imho, there are more good coming out scenes in manga (even if they require some digging)- but I agree that there should be more.<br /><br />And I understand what you mean about Aoi Hana (when I wrote about Sachiko and Mai, it dawned on me that even my beloved AH follows the "best friends --> lovers" pattern), even though I'm still rooting hard for Fumi and Ah-chan.Katherine Hansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00209832803059188448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970063565985184238.post-20258820092841845232010-10-16T20:46:27.698-07:002010-10-16T20:46:27.698-07:00I like your comment on Honey Honey insofar as the ...I like your comment on Honey Honey insofar as the gay friend-straight friend dynamic goes; I love Aoi Hana to pieces, but I've felt a bit frustrated with the fact that Akira and Fumi are being set up to be a couple (and were made into a couple in the latest chapter, although it isn't terribly serious at the moment). On the one hand, I appreciate the way they've depicted Akira's confusion about the whole thing, but there are enough of the friends-become-lovers stories out there, so I was hoping for something a bit different. <br /><br />Hmm, coming out scenes... I feel like they're actually fairly rare, as so much yuri manga avoids the entire question of homosexuality entirely - yes, the girls are kissing girls, but there's almost never any lesbian or bisexual identity in play. <br /><br />The closest to a 'coming out' scene that I can think of which was good was when Nittori and Takatsuki in Hourou Musuko realize that they both feel uncomfortable as their socially assigned genders.A Day Without Mehttp://gargarstegosaurus.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970063565985184238.post-49211423659162730502010-10-13T20:24:25.208-07:002010-10-13T20:24:25.208-07:00Thanks!

Husky & Medley is adorable and the coming out scene in "Aoi and Megumi" is a (literally and figuratively) very sweet example.Katherine Hansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00209832803059188448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970063565985184238.post-39526458520914072952010-10-13T18:29:04.077-07:002010-10-13T18:29:04.077-07:00Sick, I love them!

I sorta have Megumi coming out to Aoi in Mermaid Line floating around in my head too. Though it was kinda after the fact and may have lack some impact.<br /><br />Anyway yours were awesome indeed!Sheldorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17148600619073688872noreply@blogger.com
