What is the difference of gl and yuri?

Yuri is a japanese term for media focusing on lesbian relationships. Along with "Shoujo Ai". GL is short for "Girls Love" and is a term largely used on western Webcomic websites. A lot of Korean manhwa series are translated on sites like that, so they will often be tagged GL rather than Yuri. I think the term might have snuck back up the food chain to actually show up on Korean websites, but I could be remembering that wrong. Either way, GL, Yuri, and Shoujo ai are all terms that refer to stories about romantic relationships between girls.

As for the person with the original question: The two main characters are pretty clearly in a romantic relationship but it's a slice of life series, so it's not specifically *about* the relationship for the most part. It's tagged Yuri because there is no functional difference between the way the Yuri and Shoujo Ai tags are broadly used. A lot of people *try* to map a difference between the two terms, but they're used differently by western fans than they are in Japan, which leads to constant confusion and cross-over.

Some people say Shoujo Ai si more pure, while Yuri is more adult, but there are also lots of series that are marketed as pure yuri series. I've seen other people say it's Shoujo Ai when the girls are underage, but again, lots of books are marketed otherwise. The magazines that specialize in this stuff will often have either or both terms scattered around on their marketing material, and while fans are constantly trying to make it fit some actual standard, in practice, it just doesn't.

Since submissions here are submitted by the community, and everybody disagrees on how to apply the term, and stories are actually complicated and can't be cleanly divided along *any* line, it's generally best to just assume that the use of the two tags doesn't actually tell you anything about the series. If a series has the Yuri or Shoujo ai tag, it's teh gay ladies tiem nao. That's about the extent of what you can really get from them.

"there are also lots of series that are marketed as pure yuri series" that are actually totally innocent fluff, was what I meant to say. (Man, I need to proofread before I hit send.)

Hahahahahha that's a good one ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
