Yuri Manga

Comic Lily is undergoing a name change to Comic Lily Plus. So, if you’ve been following this anthology, the next volume is not Comic Lily, Volume 4, but Comic Lily Plus, Volume 1.

Something Kaishaku this way comes! YNN Correspondent Katherine reports on their new work Zettai Shoujo Amnesium. It’s Chikane and Himeko all over again, and I mean that literally – the leads are Chikane and Himeko.

Saving our sanity in fifteen different ways, Hayate x Blade, Volume 12 is hitting the shelves in a few weeks. Thank heavens.

And for those of you sticking it out, Manga no Tsukurikata, Volume 3 is probably going to be about the same level of ambiguous as it has been so far, until it’s not.

Even More Maria-sama ga Miteru Movie News

The Mantan Website has a photo gallery of the actresses for the Maria-sama ga Miteru movie. Let the pointless criticism and conjecture begin!

By the way, if you missed the Maria-sama manga when it came out the first time, the first omnibus volume of the manga is coming out. Looks like there’ll be three volumes total.

Snatches of Yuri

I have to admit, this one made me laugh – Aika Zero is out and has Yuri, presumably. Yes – it’s that Aika. The whole panty shot-a-second Aika. This time it takes place in a girls’ school with rosaries and the whole schtick. It’s from Gum Comics, so you know it’s gonna be classy.

Bato-Supi is about two girls in the “Battle Spirits” card game club at school and the funny sexual harassment that happens there.

Okay, I’m in on Shitsuji Shoujo to Ojou-sama. (That’s “The Girl Butler and Her Mistress” to you.) I don’t really care that it will probably be about nothing. :-)

That’s a wrap for this week.

Become a Yuri Network Correspondent by sending me any Yuri-related news you find. Emails go to anilesbocon01 at hotmail dot com. Not to the comments here, please, or they might be forgotten or missed. There’s a reason for this madness. This way I know you are a real human, not Anonymous (which I do not encourage – stand by your words with your name!) and I can send you a YNN correspondent’s badge.

Thanks to all of you – you make this a great Yuri Network!

    Man, I wonder if “Kuroshitsuji Shoujo to Ojou-sama” would be a female equivalent to the other “Kuroshitsuji” series the fangirls are squealing a lot.

    “The Girl Butler and Her Mistress”

    Well it is about damn time! All we had for this niche was June from Coyote Ragtime and Natose from Noble Masters (easily the worst of the Minato Soft games). Nice to see a series where the female butler is the main focus for once.

    I think I’ve worked out which actors are playing which part in the Maria-sama ga Miteru photo gallery, but I don’t read Japanese … the third photo in the gallery (or the second after clicking the “next” arrow above the front page picture) with the lass with glasses holding a microphone …

    … is that Camera-chan?

    Nothing to speculate or complain about … eg, they get the relative heights of Fumi and Sachiko right, but whether it works depends on the performances. But in their PR, if they’ve worked to get the actors hair in character, Camera-chan should have a camera around her neck. ^_^
