r/JustYuri2

Okay so I was debating this on TikTok, so I must come here to give my reasoning. Yuri is 100% a top.
Okay, in my argument, I’m going to be using Yuri x MC, though Natsuri or other ships could probably apply if my reasoning were tweaked.

Reason 1: Yuri is more comfortable around MC, and generally just smaller groups. This isn’t a main reason, but it sets the stage.

Reason 2: This is the big one, but Yuri actually does have a dominant personality, she simply fears social judgment, so she hides it. When coaxed out of her shell, most often through talking about her interests, she can become confident and leads. She can even act bold. This is seen when she was talking about tea, knives, and literature, particularly psychology horror and fantasy. I feel that if she is coaxed out of her shell by MC, this could definitely translate to the bedroom.

Reason 3: She enjoys being superior and right. AKA: An Ego. This is pretty subtle, but she enjoyed it when in Act 1, MC did not understand her poems, (Ghost under the Light & The Racoon if I remember correctly), she seemingly enjoyed having to explain the meaning of the poems. As well as that, if you write a poem that she enjoys, she thinks that MC is experienced like her. When MC explains that he is simply a novice, she feels slighted that a beginner could make something that she was so intrigued by. She then drums up reasons to find reasons what is wrong about MC’s poem, and make it clear that he’s a beginner and she’s the knowledgeable one to learn from.

Reason 4: Act 2 Personality. It isn’t a completely different personality, it’s a version of her Act 1 self with her negative traits amplified, therefore these traits already existed within her Act 1 self.

Reason 5: Although there aren’t any canon heights for the dokis, there is concept heights and estimates. Going off of this, Yuri is slightly taller than MC by an inch or two. This doesn’t necessarily translate into a top, but it certainly makes it easier.

Reason 6: Even in Act 1, she was already pretty freaky. Firstly, her aromatherapy. She had put in jasmine oil, which historically has been used as an aphrodisiac. She also mentions that aromatherapy can help with “romance”, when visiting MC’s house. Furthermore, when MC accidentally cut his finger in Act 1, she had taken his finger and licked it. Monika mentions that she takes some sort of sexual thrill from her SH, though it definitely isn’t the sole reason of her SH (it’s most likely being an unhealthy coping mechanism, with the sexual thrill being a part of it). She can also be seen being subtly territorial over MC in Act 1, and explicitly territorial over MC in Act 2.

Clarification: I don’t think she’d be a harsh top/dom. I feel like she’d be a gentle top. This a big difference, whereas I believe Monika would be a harsher top, Yuri would be a gentle one. She’d also probably need to be in the exact right mood to do anything, and would constantly check in with MC, and need reassurance. This is my thesis. What do you all think?
