Yuri Manga

Hayate x Blade, Volume 14 (はやてxブレード) is out at the end of this month – seriously. get it. It’s going to be screamingly awesome. Trust me. Even if you can’t read Japanese.

Shoujo Koudan Apartment (少女公団アパートメント) looks like another way to get a 4-pack of females to live together in a dorm-style setting from Mangatime Kirara.

Morita-san ha Mukuchi, Volume 4 (森田さんは無口) is also out at the end of June.

Other News

From Ain’t It Cool News Anime on Twitter, The Anime Network has Youtubed the first season of Maria+Holic

Waaahhhhh!!!! From Crunchyroll News (ironically reported by Scott Green of Ain’t It Cool Anime News) Go Nagai’s Kekkou Kamen has a new adventure in Business Jump, Issue 14. It will be sure to offend every sensibility you know you have and several you didn’t.

The four actresses voicing the main characters of Yuru Yuri have made a music video in character cosplay of the opening theme.

Manga Critic Kate Dacey is endeavoring to create a Manga 101 guide – something someone who would like to try a manga that caters to their tastes could use to pick something reasonably good to begin with. She’s opened up a suggestions thread – drop by and give her a thought or two.

That’s a wrap for this week.

    Too bad this just missed the news that just came out today, about the ‘Noir’ live-action series being officially greenlit!

  2. @Filo – Luckily this a blog, so we can add things in or write new posts!

    It’s always nice to hear that Hibiki Reine is still in business, despite her Marimite work tailing off and possible fallings-out with Ichijinsha (it was such a disappointment not to see any of her Yuri Hime cover art in Chronicle). One small correction though, the author of Puppy Love is Suzumoto Beni (source).

  4. @Simon B Thanks for the correction – lazy reading on my part. ^_^

    Actually some of the Ultra Jump new releases planned for this month have been postponed.
    So, as you can see, according to Amazon.co.jp , HxB 14 will be out in August! (T T)

    My guesses are :
    – Hayashiya-sensei just can’t figure out which pair should put on the cover XD
    – Shueisha guys just planned to give Hayashiya-sensei a 2 months non-stop cazziatone (italian word for “really really heavy lecture” ) for drawing Hitsugi-sama’s right hand wrong in a double-page panel of chapter #29
