TunaFishie Strawberry Panic! If you can get through the first three episodes, it really does take off. It's extremely beautiful. Kannazuki no MikoWonderfully gorgeous, well thought out anime. There is some craziness in it, but all together well done. NanaSay waht you want...but Nana x Hachi....in my head it happened (I never actually finished this series I got so mad when Nana got back with Ren xp ) NoirI never finished this, but I saw about half of it, it's kinda creepy awesome. Great music, interesting characters, and a pretty interesting concept. Revolutionary Girl Utena Absolutely classic anime, I never finished it (the quality online got so terrible that I just quit :'( ) but it is kinda the yuri anime that started it all. Hmm. I wonder if any of these are on netflix. ninja

Kyouku_Kaichou Most yuri are written by men and for men, and they turn out to be trashy. I really can't stand Kannazuki no miko, And maria-holic as well. If they are what you consider "decent" then......i have nothing to say to you. They seem to me like a guy writing a story about men being forced into lesbians lives, i've read way to many manga that is CLEARLY just that, these are that kind of manga just a bit more subtle. Strawberry panic is decent, its probably the only real yuri anime out there. Others just use yuri for comedy or fan service, or have been canceled. There are many good yuri manga, if you want GOOD yuri then you will have to go with manga. My favorite mangaka are Hayashiya Shizuru and Morishima Akiko, both are women. You can read anything from them, they are all good. I'm pretty sure Kannazuki no Miko was written by women, or at least one of the "duo" that created it was a woman. I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure. And I will agree that there is a lot of yuri that is just pretty much for men. But in any kind of lesbian media, there is always fan service for men. I liked the L word until I realized that (for all it's good) it really was sexualizing lesbians for men, IMHO
I mean, in most media women are sexualized for men, so you put two women there you get twice the sexualization. It's sad really.
And although SP! is one of my favorite animes of all time, you have to admit that there is some really goofy lesbianism for the giggles in it. Nagisa's roomate Tamao is portrayed as pretty ******** creepy despite her heart breaking unrequited love.
I haven't seen Maria Ga-Mitiru, been told it's up there like Revolutionary Girl Utena as far as "Most important lesbian animes ever" but to me, it seemed like a longer less interesting Strawberry Panic. I only saw the first episode though, so maybe I shouldn't judge.

I only saw the first episode though, so maybe I shouldn't judge. Even if Kannasuki no miko is made by a woman (wich its not, Kaishaku is 2 men), its still a very sexist anime, and moreso one of the sequel manga. that manga rivals champion red as one of the most sexist crap i've ever red. (and yes its by the same artists as the anime).
Maria-sama ga miteru is better than strawberry panic. It's about the relationships between the girls. It's not echi at all, and it is by a woman. The only reason why you would enjoy Strawberry Panic more is if you are looking for strictly yuri stuff. Strawberry Panic is just for yuri giggles and not much more. Wereas Maria-sama has more fully developed characters and intricate relationships. There is one out of the closet lesbian in the show, but shes a much more complex character than simply being lesbian, and shes one of my most favorite characters in anime.
There are some yuri manga written by women that are pretty good, even some written by men that are pretty good. So not all lesbian media is just fan service for men. But you have to look into manga for that, not much anime really.
