Yuri Mekuru Hibi (original) (raw)

Misleading synopsis. This isn't in any way a dazzling love story—it's closer to a gag manga. Each page has its own set-up and punchline, making Yuri Mekuru Hibi read more like a humorous slice-of-life 4koma in a more traditional panel form. There's yuri, but not much in the way of actual romance.

As far as the humor goes, it's simple, but generally effective. Most pages follow a simple bait-and-switch: a very typical set-up for a romantic scene, followed by an absurd and silly reaction instead of the expected. Some jokes fall flat, while others gave me a few genuine laughs.

There's not much in the way of... variety, here, but it's worth taking a look at.
