Once again, lots of things to see and do on the Yuricon website!
The Yuri Events Page has been updated. Join us for the Otakon Yuri panel on Friday, August 4 at 9PM in Panel Room 3! This is your big chance to meet most of the Yuricon organizing staff, to ask questions from some of the world’s leading experts on yuri – and don’t leave early. We have a big announcement at the end of the panel that you shouldn’t miss!
Three new chapters of “Saiyuu no Ryouko: The Continuing Adventures of Yuriko” are now online! Visit the SnB/SnR page for updates.
And for Yuriko fans everywhere – it’s time for the 2006 Yuricon Fanfic Contest! This year’s theme is an alternate-universe for Yuri and her friends. Yuriko the cowboy, the space alien, the fish, all’s fair in fanfic. Submissions will be accepted from August 15, so get writing *your* version of Yuriko’s hunky mascot! Check the contest rules.
Speaking of contests – the winners of the 2006 AMV contest – and all the rest of the wonderful contest submissions – are up on Yuri Studios! Check out bakablonde’s yurified version of Appleseed, and Kyanite’s powerful Silent Mobius video – don’t forget to congratulate our winners. Our thanks to everyone who entered – this was a good year for Yuri!
Don’t forget to drop by the Yuricon Shop, where we’ve added new anime, new manga in English and Japanese, new Drama CDs and even a new T-shirt design! Celebrate your love of yuri in style with the spiffy new black “I Love Yuri” tee.
