When you try to avoid romance by going to an all girls school only to discover you're in a Yuri romance.

If You Could See Love sounds like yuri bait.

Could someone please explain how all the "Another" adaptations tie together?
I've tried researching it but haven't really come up with a clear answer.

I know the manga adaptation of "Another" and I know there's the novel "Another".

There's "Another 0" which is a manga and a prequel - is there a novel variant? I saw that this is released in English within a novel but haven't figured out which edition.
My guess now is that "Another 2001" is a sequel to the original but is it a manga or novel? And which of them is being released in English now?

Well, it's not bait, I can tell you that.

As far as I can tell "Another 0" is just a manga. There's no novel counterpart.

"Another 2001" is a novel. There does not appear to be a manga adaptation for now.

There is also the spinoff "Another Episode S", which was a light novel originally and also got a manga adaptation.

Thank you!
So one can probably read the "Another 2001" novel as sequel if one has only read the manga version of "Another"?

I highly doubt that. While Yuri bait is common in the world of anime, it's much more common to see actual Yuri in the world of manga and light novels(they just never get adapted)

"I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World" doesn't even sound like a real thing. It's actually impressive how generic that sounds.

Why is there so little news about the sequel to Another in the West? Was it not popular or not very interesting?

Cant say it doesnt have its short comings and doesnt have any cliches, but its pretty unique in the sense that it mixes isekai to another world, isekai back to our world, and then sci fi / aliens other worlds as well.

I think the reason why they yuri title is going to be digital is because there is color in the story in the form of the pink arrows which would be to expensive to be printed it color.
