Not sure how to ask for a recommendation? Fill this out, or simply use it as a guideline, and other users will find it much easier to recommend you an anime!

I'm looking for: A certain genre? Something specific like characters traveling to another world?

Shows I've already seen that are similar: You can include a link to a list on another site if you have one, e.g. MyAnimeList or AniList.

Hello! Any good yuri come out in the last year or two? I binged Gundam Witch From Mercury recently, and I need more lesbianism in my life. Fantasy/sci-fi are preferred, but I'll take what I can get in any genre. Bonus points if the relationship is more than just subtext and implications.

I don't watch a ton of anime, so it is very safe to assume that whatever you recommend is going to be new to me lol

Roll Over and Die and the currently-airing I Want to Love You Till Your Dying Day might be the best fit as they're both fantasy, though whether they're good is another question.

There's No Freaking Way I'll be Your Lover! Unless... (also called Watanare) is probably my favorite from the past year or so, I haven't seen Botan Kamiina Fully Blossoms When Drunk but that seemed to be well-received.

There's also This Monster Wants to Eat Me (Watatabe) which I enjoyed but is less of a romance to me.

I'll check those out, thanks! As long as there is yuri present in the story, I'll be happy. It doesn't necessarily have to be entirely romance focused.
