Top 10 Webcomics To Start Your Yuri Obsession
In the last few years, the demand for webcomics / webtoons has exploded largely due to the public being stuck at home during the pandemic and wanting easy access to new material from around the world. For someone new to the fanbase, it can be a daunting task to figure out where to start. There are a variety of apps and databases that provide access to what is commonly known as Girls’ Love comics, manhwa (Korean comic term), or manhua (Chinese comic term). Webcomics from Thailand and the Philippines have also had a huge rise in the GL category.
Some popular apps with official English translated webcomics are Webtoon, Tapas, Tappytoon, Lezhin and WebComics. The majority of the most popular Yuri or GL webcomics are available on these apps. Unfortunately, there are still some amazing ones that have yet to be officially translated but for this list, we will only include official English releases.
