Her Love, Like Poison

Toxic yuri, folk horror, and mushrooms are three great tastes that taste great together, who knew? This one may as well have been laser targeted at me. It's a short tale but one that's very novel and left me wanting more from the setting. The art's quite serviceable most of the time, with the bulk of the attention given to the setpiece CG as you'd probably expect. The music is VERY on brand with how it seems to draw inspiration from Youtube clips of mushroom "music". Y'know, the ones where electrodes are hooked up between synths and mushrooms and they turn the impulses into tunes? They're simple tunes but I felt it really added to the atmosphere.

meeeee :3

PEAK YURI!!!!!!!! lowk kinda doomed but its soooo good

has positives such as the art and soundtrack but the writing felt somehow both underwhelming and a bit bloated to me. and having even a single male character in a yuri vn is just too much smh (joke.) recommending only to a specific category of people, those being if you reblog a lot of cannibalism as a metaphor for love/dog motif/doomed by the narrative webweaving moodboards on tumblr, you'll very likely enjoy this.
