Short report today. I dislocated my shoulder Thursday night and typing is not so fun. I’m fine, I promise. I put the shoulder back in Friday morning and just have a nasty sprain now. Just want to keep this short. ^_^
Yuri Anime
The trailer for the citrus anime is here and it is not as awful I as I expected. I don’t know if the anime will even be able to approach the layers of dysfunction in the manga, so it might just stick to the top one or two issues.

Bunches of new theaters in Japan have been added for the Asagao to Kase-san anime OVA premiere!
Via Crunchyroll News, a new Cutie Honey anime is heading our way in 2018! Waaah! Called Cutie Honey Universe, I’m with Go Nagai, I wonder how Cutie Honey will look in these times.
Also from Crunchyroll, the Revolutionary Girl Utena BD box set from Nozom/RightStuff has been delayed.
To celebrate the release of a new Blu-Ray set in Japan, Digimon Tamers is being rebroadcast on Japanese TV.

And to you!
Is Digimon Tamers particularly yuri? It’s been awhile and I don’t remember.
… okay, I remember Rika and Renamon being pretty close, I may not have picked up on the subtext.
Going back and watching it is going to be surreal, now that I know dub!Rika is voiced by Neptune. ^^;
It entirely depends on your interpretation of Yuri. In my opinion Renamon and Rika/Ruki count as a couple. They may not in yours.
I don’t remember and wasn’t watching for that, back when it aired! I’ll just have to watch it again to find out c:
On that note, in the cinema lobby where we saw them, the “Asagao” flyers are stacked alongside the next upcoming Eupho film, “Liz and the Blue Bird”.
The film might not get the biggest screens with the most available seats in the house within these multiplexes but many of the theatres now listed are part of major mainstream cinema chains. While there are significant gaps in coverage and not every prefecture is served the current list of theatres stretches along the rail tracks from Sapporo in Hokkaido up north to Hakata in Nothern Kyushu down south. Branching out, blossoming, from auspicious beginnings with the premiere you mentioned in Ikebukuro. Bunches of “Asagao”.
