June is **PRIDE OR DIE** Month

+1 for Sense8. It might be the most pride-themed show on this list. There's even footage of SanFran Pride. VERY gay, also very explicit.

It was also just announced today that Motherland got renewed for a season 2! Hope you check it out even if it not for a reaction because this show has so much representation and it’s just amazing.

Oh, and I just remembered another one I have fond memories of which is "Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl" It's pretty much a yuri story about a main character who gets transformed into a girl. Usually shows with that type of situation mostly just play off of it for comedy, and while this one does that a little bit initially, I still think most of it was pretty enjoyable. Although there is this kinda creepy thing with the dad (a magazine photographer) taking pictures of his (now) daughter that gets played as a running gag at times, so fair warning on that. While Strawberry Panic was my first yuri anime, this was probably one of the first shows that made me start to develop egg/closeted trans thoughts. It's a very feel good anime. Though I do remember crying in the later half of it.

I recommend Strawberry Panic! Been years since I watched it, but I really enjoyed it. It's pretty melodramatic/cheesy, but I kinda like that about it ^ ^ It also takes place in a freaking religious academy lol Was basically my first introduction to that genre of anime. Basic premise is that it focuses on a group of different girls and their relationships. The main character is basically a transfer student who comes from a more modest, public school who is now at a prestigious private campus. There's 26 episodes in total I think!

A great show is Motherland: Fort Salem if you haven’t already checked it out. The main character is a lesbian and her love interest is another main character. There’s only 9 episodes out right with the season 1 finale coming out on Wednesday. It can be angsty with some stuff but the cast and creators have basically said that they are endgame so there’s no worry of bury your gays tropes and stuff like that. Also totally looking forward to Bloom into you, it so great.

Kat

Really looking forward to this so much Especially Given Also I like to recommend season 2 of "Kora, Mimi ga mieteru! 2" Assuming that you watch the season one (I sent you wait the gay cat boys on YouTube b4 when you talked about citrus) Also Jie Yao and/or TightRope there also great gay anime

revolutionary girl utena is sooo good

+1 for Utena. It's arguably THE yuri show of the 90s (along whit the gay parts of Sailor Moon) and still relevant since a bunch of cartoons like Steven universe and Shera makes references to it.

We watched The Half of It over the weekend and it was pretty great. Hope Utena makes your list. Was an early favorite of mine, and I'd love an excuse to rewatch it.

Juniper And Sage

I've seen runaways, Karolina and Nico are adorable

(granted I've only seen the first season and a half so I'm not sure how it turns out and also) not sure if you've already seen it but Marvel's Runaways has a LGBT theme/relationship!

Leah Grace

yep! trying to finish seasons 1& 2 before june rn!

I know of the animation references in She-Ra but I know literally nothing about the series so I think it would be a fun one

right? that's what makes it tough to find shows since LGBT themes and characters are usually reserved as sideplots in other shows. mistreated sideplots at that

yeah... I watched it a few weeks ago during the She-Ra drought based on a recommendation... whyyyyyyyyy. I may do a video just talking about it and it's... proclivities in june

Killing eve !! Esp the current season

ggk

Utena. Considering you just finished She-Ra, you might especially enjoy the shout-outs it had to Utena.

Ashlyn

Can't wait for that yuri on ice stream and I've also wanted to watch love simon I don't really know any other expressly lgbt shows at all 😔 most shows just have subtext

SaltiestSpoon

Ugh, Citrus. I regret the time I wasted on that, what was wrong with me. Couldn't even see the last episode I got so fed up with it. The other choices sound awesome though!

Pedro D. Nunez

I'm gonna be going through a ton of stuff that is regular coverage this month to catch up. Hoping to finish Tangled in June too

Well I was gonna say Givin and Yuri on Ice but you already got em lol. I’m really excited though; a pride themed month for shows and movies is a really cool idea.
