100 Years of Yuri and More at AnimeNYC

November 14th, 2019

This weekend may be light on reviews and there will be no YNN this week, but it won’t be light on content! I’m heading out to New York City, to be part of AnimeNYC which is sincerely everything NYCC wishes it were in regards to anime and manga.

I’ve written up a manga-focused pre-event report for The Comics Beat which I’ll link to when it goes live. In the meantime, here’s the queer highlights for you if you’re planning your schedule! The panels schedule is available in full on the event website.

Friday

I will be presenting 100 Years of the Yuri Genre at 3PM in Room 1E17. I don’t have a lot of room in my luggage, but I have some small prizes for good questions!

Con guest translator Zack Davisson and myself will be shouting into the void at The Great Debate at 6PM in Room 1E17.

 

Saturday:

The day begins with That’s Gay! Anime and Manga for the LGBTQ Audience at 10:30 in Room 1E17.

Yuri OVA Fragtime will get its US Premier at 1:30 in Room 1E13.

 

Companies that will be there, holding panels, sponsoring guests, and who have been licensing Yuri include Viz Media,who are celebrating the release of the Stars season of Sailor Moon, Sentai Filmworks, who just released a premium box set of Bloom Into You, Yen Press, which has with the Kadkoawa pipeline, J-Novel Club, who just launched a line of Yuri novels that were great), Funimation, Kodansha and Denpa. I’m also going to see if I can ask Square Enix for a book or two.

I’ll see you there!

    Perhaps this has little relevance to today’s topic, but thanks for the interview with BECK’s author! (I found it by clicking on the your name’s tag on the Beat website) As a musician, I always love this work for a rare realistic picture of everyday life in this genre.
