I am pleased as punch to note that not only is Hakusensha’s Rakuen Le Paradis (楽園 Le Paradis) magazine is including Yuri again (still), they seem to have recommitted to it.
In Volume 26 of Rakuen Le Paradis we have a new comic called “Praparat” by Shigasawa Kaya about a class outsider who has a chance to become more popular, but who comes to a unexpected conclusion about herself.
“Junsui Adolescence” by Kazuma Kowo lets us revisit a series from the early 2000s which originally ran in what was then Yuri Hime magazine.
And, best of all, this month’s chapter of “14-sai no Koi” by Mizutani Fuuka, follows Shiki Aoi, one of Tanaka Kanata’s classmates who has a painful one-sided crush on her. Aoi finally breaks down to the school doctor, only to glimpse a vision of her own life in 7 years if she doesn’t find a way to grow. She comes back to the doctor and ends up comforting her. This chapter was incredibly touching and sad.

Overall – 8
Next issue, Volume 27, will see a return of Nakamura Aasumiko’s “Mejirobana no Saku.” Guess I’m getting this magazine again, regularly. ^_^;
