Light Novels
This is probably not Yuri, but Konno Oyuki has a new light novel coming out called Friends about Kazami and Ao, long time friends who end up at the same College of Arts. I’m really excited to read a new, non-fantasy piece by Konno-sensei!
Yuri Manga
Akili’s Stretch (ストレッチ) is now hitting a 4th volume. It’s still not-really Yuri, either, but let’s face it, there’s service enough and subtext enough for many fans to pretend.
The second volume of 2DK、GPen, Mezamashitokei (2DK、Gペン、目覚まし時計。) by Ohzawa Yayoi hit shelves this week. We turn our attention from manga artist Kaede to hard-working and mostly overlooked Nanami.
Mountain Pukuichi’s schoolgirl series NanaYuri also has a December release from Ichijinsha.
Other News
In 2014, I reviewed a gorgeous artbook by eri kamijo called Girls. Well kamijo has a brand new artbook out called Dear, and I cannot wait to get a copy. Her art portrays women as beautiful, fun, sexy and stylish, without being pandering…and has the occasional splash of Yuri as well.
Netflix has the localized version of Smile! Precure as of today. Check out ANN’s report on Glitter Force. ^_^It is legitimately a cartoon for little kids…so I’m really noncommittal about the localization. But the name, ugh.

Thanks to all of you – you make this a great Yuri Network!
I scrubbed through a few scenes from Glitter Force. It isn’t nearly as bad as it could have been.
That’s good to know. If you feel up to a review, let me know!
