Yuri Network News – (百合ネットワークニュース) – November 2, 2013

November 2nd, 2013

YNN_MariK It’s going to be a datadump kind of day.

Yet another new Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha project has been announced. That makes something like 4 concurrent projects.

YNN Correspondent Danny D reminds you that Seven Seas’ release of A Centaur’s Life comes out next Tuesday.

Here’s a couple of interesting article/reviews to entertain yourself with:

A discussion of the end of Shimura Takako’s Aoi Hana by Kyosuke.

Anne Lee’s got an interesting take on the new Sailor Moon Musical, La Reconquista.

Jared Axelord’s excellent debunking of myths associated with sexual harassment at conventions and other public events. I recommend this to all geek guys everywhere. It addresses things like what behavior you can really expect of yourself and why you don’t “see” harassment.

Once you’re read all the serious things, take a look at J Gray’s Yuri webcomic, Mysteries of the Arcana for some fun reading.

In Memoriam: I’d appreciate it if you’d all take a moment to read the one review my father, who just passed away, did for Okazu on Shin Megami Tensei Kahn. Thanks Dad, you were always game.

    Ave atque vale.

    For those whose promotion of the crowdfunding of Dear Brother (84%+ funded, 182 supporters pledging $10940, with $2,060 needed to hit the $13,000 goal) may wander into places where either Yuri and/or the crowdfunding of anime is new territory, please feel free to link to or use anything I wrote in my blog post, New Media Economy & Crowdfunding Classic Yuri Anime, written for the mainly current events / political affairs blogs that I normally post at.

    Please accept my condolences, Erica. Also, have to say that your dad had good taste. Shin Megami Tensei is probably the best japanese rpg series, when it comes to the storylines.

  4. My condolences for your loss.

    I’m truly sorry. Having never yet lost a parent, I can only imagine how that must feel. In fact I have often imagined it…would it feel like, perhaps, as though a great anchor line in the stormy seas of life had come loose?

    That’s always how I’ve thought of it: the ship of our minds and hearts, cast adrift in the world after that irreplaceable loss of grounding and guidance. If that’s how it is for you, I hope you will find your way again before long.

    • Thank you. Actually, I’m fine. As a pagan, I’m fully invested in the inevitable death at the end of life. My Dad was a grump and a goof, I’ll miss him, but I’m far too realistic to be adrift. ^_^

  6. Josh says:

    May the archangel Azrael guide his soul to the heavens above, and heal the hearts of those who loved him.

  7. I’m catching up with your blog, as my own mum passed away last week and I’ve been out of it this last week or so. Thank you again for this blog, and my condolences to you for your Dad.
