Looks to be pretty standard cute girls doing cute things. Between the art style and the setting, it most made me think of GochiUsa with a bit of Kin-iro Mosaic thrown in.
Though that word "lily" leaps right out, since that's almost certainly a ham-handed localization of "yuri."
I guess we'll find out eventually...
I am guessing it is a pun based on my limited knowledge of the language. I never knew before why the lily flower was synonymous with yuri relationships, but I just looked it up and it's because the way you pronounce the kanji for the lily flower (百合) is yuri (ゆり) and the lily was traditionally associated with women's purity in Japan. Then, in the 70's, it was used to describe lesbian readers of a BL magazine by the editor and it kind of took off from there.
The title is written as リリィ which is "riri" (or lily) but written a little weirdly with the small ィ at the end. I don't know enough about the nuances of katakana to know the significance there. I am guessing that the Lily part of the title is literally correct, but that the target audience is supposed to get the second meaning implying yuri.
Then again, I am not a native Japanese speaker...so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Awesome clarification - thanks.
