Yuri Events
We’ll be at Yurithon from August 16-18 in Montreal, QC. With panels and games and advice about Yuri, and prizes for good questions! Hope to see you there!
Yuri Anime
Following up a news item from last week, baseball anime Tamayomi is being worked on by the staff of baseball anime Major, and certainly, Yuri Navi thinks of it as a “Yuri” anime. It’s still not the sports story I want, but it’s a step forward. ^_^
Kase-san and Morning Glories is now available for pre-order directly from Sentail Filmworks for a sensible $19.99 for the Blu-Ray.
LGBTQ Live-Acton
Via YNN Correspondent Batwoman Tomoyo, The Paley Center in NYC is doing a free showing of the new Batwoman television series on September 7, in NYC.
Yuri Performance
Via Comic Natalie, Doctor Pepperco’s Sayonara Rose Garden, English woman x Japanese maid manga (of which I have reviewed Volume 1) will performed as a live reading at February 8th and 9th 2020 in Tokyo TACCS1179.
Other News
Not Yuri, but I can almost guarantee there will be lesbians, as old-school crime and violence manga (like Lady Snowblood) almost always did, take a look at Major Spoilers’ review of Ryuko, Volume 1.
Via Timeboxer, the Guardian’s Amal El-Mohtar asks Why are there so many new books about time-travelling lesbians? The answer is quite good.
Always worth a read is any article about lesbian pulp. Erin Blakemore takes a look at how Pulp Fiction Helped Define American Lesbianism on JSTOR.
Do you have questions about Yuri? Write in and ask and I’ll do my best to address them on the Okazu YNN Podcast, Become a YNN Correspondent by reporting any Yuri-related news with your name and an email I can reply to!
Thanks to all of you – you make this a great Yuri Network!

I didn’t read the original manga, so I can’t say anything myself, but I hope that I didn’t in vain draw your attention to this adaptation. I hope to see your review in the future if you have time and this work will live up to expectations.
I hope so too. I mean, I’m not expecting the series I want, but I do hope it’s actually Yuri, and not just Mangatime magazines Yuri-esque. ^_^
Speaking of MTK and yuri baiting. In the winter season there will be another adaptation of them, Koisuru Asteroid. I can’t say anything about potential, but when premise is literally based on gay joke, and MC’s best friend literally exists only for ship her with another main heroine, then this can say some.
