Yuri Anime
Last week we had a poster, this week we have a bit of news. Takashima Hiromi’s Asagao to Kase-san is getting a short “Animation clip”. Check out the official website, Asagao-Anime for more news on that.
Pony Canyon released a promotional video of the effort this week.
Also from the website, the Kase-san manga will be serialized on the Line Manga tool, which is excellent news for those of us who like the series! The first installation was to have started this past Tuesday, so Japanese readers can let us know how it looks.
From YNN Correspondent Shannon L, ANN reports that A Cenatur’s Life anime will premier in July.
The anime for Saburouta’s series Citrus will begin in November 2017, according to Comic Natalie. Kodama Naoko’s NTR: Netsuzou Trap anime will also be hitting around the same time, says Crunchyroll News. I will be glad to have someone review the Citrus anime, but NTR comes nowhere near this blog.

In case you missed it, Brigid Alverson interviewed me this week all about Yuri Manga on the Barnes & Noble blog. It starts with a definition and has some history, so if you’re looking for a place to point people to explain what Yuri is and make some recommendations, it’s a solid place to begin.
The fifth Sailor Moon musical will play this coming autumn in Tokyo, according to Crunchyroll News. Obviously, it will cover the Sailor Stars arc. ^_^

‘A Cenatur’s Life’ anime sounds interesting as I buy all the tanks, but I always worry how they will rewrite certain things that we like and the males who run the anime industry do not like, yet adding the toxic garbage they live on and ruin the show. Which leads to ‘Asagao to Kase-san’, this really worries me that an all time precious favorite will be put into the hands of those type of men. There’s no way for them to tone-down or cut-out the yuri and no way to add rapey plot devices and objectifying nonsense without almost/or a full rewrite. It would have to be done like ‘Aoi Hana’ or ‘Sasameki Koto’. A Citrus anime and NTR anime sound exactly like the type of projects those men raised on hentai and rape will love working on. Anyway, I will hope for the best. I never dreamed I might see such a thing.
I’m really confused about fans’ negative impressions of Kase-san. All I saw was a promotional video for a delightful little animation about a sweet couple. I cannot even pretend to understand why people are unhappy with it.
Men and women work on animation teams all the time. Kase-san looks like it’ll be nice. And, as it has absolutely NO relationship (not the same studio, company, publisher or anything) with NTR or Citrus I don’t see how any comparison is possible, much less necessary.
