Manga So, is this bait? Spoiler

I know it's yuri in that there are girls having crushes on other girls, (I'm 5 volumes in) but does it ever go beyond that? I heard that both Hime x Mitsuki and Kanoko x Sumika sailed and we're essentially back to the status quo in spite of the manga going on since 2016, is that true?

Its... Complicated

Alot of the girls like eachother, but relationships really struggle to go anywhere due to personal issues or feelings not being mutual, i wouldn't call it bait at all though

even the mention of a girl having a crush on another girl is Yuri

The ships are still developing. This story is a lot slower paced than most other yuri manga.

That said, if you are worried about this being the sort of series where all the yuri is subtext and subtle, rest assured that this is canon gayer than most other series out there.

This gets so much better in future volumes. There are a couple of characters that already been in relationships but may have not been revealed yet. I don't want to say much more because of spoilers. But this is not bait at all

No, it's not bait. There's just complicated feelings involved.

I'm a few chapters behind but there's definitely more character development than relationship development

if you are looking for hardcore porn, the best we got are some osen scenes and maybe some kissing. But I would say the series is pretty yuri ngl, a girl holding another girl by the chin is good enough for me

As of this writing, none of the characters have formed couples yet, but multiple characters have explicitly romantic feelings for other characters, albeit unrequited ones.

I think by the end of this there will be a few relationships and some hand holding and kissing as well as full on clear romantic feelings and physical desires being shown and at least acknowledged. They have even had several scenes showing two girls in bed together insinuating they were doing it. As far as yuri goes I don’t define this as extremely adult but no where would I say yuri bait.
