Yuri Manga License Announcements from San Diego Comic Con

July 28th, 2007

Seven Seas has announced that they have licensed Hayate x Blade, which makes me happy for several reasons. A while back, they asked me to send a list of good Yuri titles and, while I said that it was not Yuri, I suggested that they look into this because it is so *good*. Based on their recent acquisitions of the Ichijinsha properties and now HxB, it looks like they really took my list quite seriously.

7S also announced licenses for Hakamada Mera’s Akatsuki-iro no Senpuku Majo, and two novels, Girls Love and Girls Revolution, neither of which I am familiar with. I’ll look into them.

(Now, can you guys at 7S send me the review copies you promised, so I can review your books, already?)

Tokyopop has announced the Kannazuki no Miko manga, which will give us a whole new generation of degenerates who think rape is sexy as long as it’s two women. The ending – not nearly as Yuri as the anime. I look forward to the mental gymnastics the end will cause in readers who inisist in Chikane and Himeko as a couple. :-)

Will be away all day, so more announcements tomorrow, if there’s any to be had.

  3. Tokyopop has already said that they are unlikely to be able to get the manga or novels for the US market, and they are the European rights holder.

    Geneon has said, repeatedly, that there are issues with the anime licensing, but that they are trying.

    “They are a cute couple”

    Guess you will have to delete your latest KnM-related review before anyone notices that line ^^

  5. Meh. I’m human, which means I’m inconsistent and full of contradiction. My opinions change all the time. :-)

    They are a couple, even at the end of the manga. Afterall, Kaishaku promotes everything, whether it be incest, twincest, pedo, cats, etc. >_>
