The setting for the narrative is a high school. Murasame Sumika, the central protagonist, is actually in love with her closest buddy, Kazama Ushio. Kazama had an interest in other girls for years, but they have always rejected her.
So she keeps searching for a partner and is unaware that Murasame adores her. The manga is quite realistic, and it takes a while to present best friends in high school who have unrequited affections and find their love, as well as suffering through challenges with the companionship of their friends.
Even if the anime is faster, it is just as fun and faithful as the manga. The Yuri element in anime, manga, and novels is a loving relationship between girls. Yuri is also a feminine version in Japan.
Because same-sex relationships are still taboo in Japanese society, the central premise of the Yuri genre in anime is usually about having affection for a friend of a different gender. Lesbian relationships are the center point of the anime series. Shoujo-ai anime is pretty inclusive of the list. Anime fans, we got your back with romantic anime and some comedy anime included.
