>show
are they the main characters? if not then never
>scene
flirting but that's not guaranteed, kissing for sure

If there are no male MC, then it's yuri.

what if they are forced to kiss to activate some plot gimmick, or it's a foreign custom without romantic intent?

>forced to kiss to activate some plot gimmick
ill chalk it to another maybe
>a foreign custom without romantic intent
if it doesn't pack heat then its not yuri, if its explained and she goes for a second then its yuri

handholding

This chart seems like a pretty good jumping off point.

I could've swornm that this was from Omamori Himari

breathe in the same room.

It makes no difference.
>two girls share a scene
Yurifags think it's yuri, anti-yurifags don't.
>two girls get married
Yurifags think it's yuri, anti-yurifags don't.

It doesn't matter.

My understanding is that everything with female friends is "yuri" even if there isn't even a hint of romance and that Any Forums has been using the term wrong by conflating it with lesbianism.
But sometimes I want to watch a show with cute lesbian romance and I'm looking more specifically for girl-meets-girl type stories. Of course I still enjoy many of the platonic yuri series, they just don't satisfy the same niche and it's annoyingly hard to tell which is which without trying it myself.

Kissing, tribbing and swearing off men or showing no interest.

If an anime has at least two females who talk to each other about anything except for a man then it's yuri.

Nice bait thread.

Sorry you think everyone's out to attack you.

Yuri fanservice is still yuri

Is the exasperation most non-yurifags feel at yurifags shipping two girls they believe to friends the ultimate proof that these kinds of shows are yuri? Like, just imagine if someone like that made an all-girl series. Wouldn’t they want to make sure there was no way yurifags could see their girls as gay by making them explicitly straight? If I recall, that’s why the author of ARIA gave Alicia a fiancée at the end of the series because she was weirded out by the director/fans shipping her with Akari.

It just seems like the only people who can stand yurifags pairing up “friends” together are yurifags themselves.

There are degrees of yuri.

What if an author who doesn’t like yuri is being forced to add yuri implications by their editor?

Beginner's mistake to think they have to "go" anywhere to be yuri.

No, not at all. Most authors will gladly add a bit of misleading pandering to hook more readers.
