Yuri Manga
Seven Seas has licensed Centaur no Ayami, a school life series about centaurs. Volume 2, if you remember, goes off the charts with service-y Yuri.
Comic Natalie reports that there will be a Yuru Yuri spin-off, “The Ohmuro Family” which, along with several other Comic Yuri Hime 4-koma titles will run on their upcoming webcomic site Comic Yuri Hime on Nico Nico Douga.
Comic Yuri Hime, May 2013 Issue (コミック百合姫 2013年 05月号) is now up for pre-order on Amazon JP. It will street in March.
Tsubomi has put new chapters of 4 comics up, and has a nice new top illustration on their webcomic page. Himitsu no Recipe by Morinaga Milk, Eden no Higashitotsuka by Hakamada Mera, Otomo Megane’s Futari and Sugawa Tokushi’s Zenryaku, Yuri no Sono Yori have been updated.

Other News
ANN has a new feature which I would recommend to any of you out there who want to understand IP law (in a US context). Part 1 of the The Law of Anime: Copyright and the Anime and Part 2: Copyrights and Fandom are both well worth your time . (Also, if you feel very superior and intelligent about how reform is long overdue, read the comments, too where Sean Thorsden, Esq. says, “yes” to that and then explains why it isn’t happening to your satisfaction.)
And my wife notes that it has been about 5 years since I started to post weekly news updates about Yuri. (My first “This Week in Yuri” was in February 2008). She says, “I think it’s impressive that you’ve had something to report nearly weekly for 5 years.” I have to agree with her on that. So now we have another pin in Yuri’s history, in 2008 it became possible to start writing weekly new reports on Yuri! How amazing is that. ^_^

That’s a wrap for this week!
