Yuri Manga 

Via a ton of YNN Correspondents (thanks Shannon, Jin, Jst and everyone!) Scott Green from Crunchyroll noticed that One Peace Books’ has solicited Sasameki Koto on Amazon for a May 2014 release. The English title will be Whispered Words. I’ve already spoken with the publisher and I hope to have some more details from them in days ahead!

For those of you who liked Oshima Towa’s High School Girls/Joshi Kousei, by which I mean Sean, her new series, Joshikou Seifuku Biyori Shunka Haru Natsu (女子高制服日和 春夏), looks similar.

Other Comic News

From YNN Correspondent Erin S. here is a lovely little comic allegory about gender diversity, Gender Tapas.

Brigid Alverson has a nice piece on the relaunch of the comic Princeless, “a kid-friendly tale of a strong girl who defies authority and has swashbuckling adventures.”

Anime News

Diskotek Media is putting out the original Cutie Honey TV Series. Marvel at the first anime superheroine to not need a man (and who would have been more effective if the guys stayed out of the way, honestly. ^_^;)

Other News

Here’s all the Sailor Moon/My Little Pony mashups from HeyLookASign. Notice Uranus and Neptune snuggly close. ^_^

Today’s Sailor Moon-themed makeup is “Miracle Romance” Eyeliner and Moon Wand lipstick. And stick-on nails.

    I’m so excited for Whispered Words and a new print run of Princeless!

    Yeah, sadly, Towa Oshima’s moved way past me and into the LFB market, and seems to be adding a lot more incest to her lesbians. I don’t need Yuma/Momoka, really.
