Our friends at Cheapmanga.com have been kind enough to make all remaining ALC manga volumes available at discount prices!

Yuri Monogatari Volumes 3,4 & 6, the English-language global Yuri anthology from ALC Publishing are available for $18.00 for the set! This Yuri anthology includes selections from Japanese artists like Rica Takashima, Eriko Tadeno, Akiko Morishima, Nishi UKO, as well as artists from every corner of the world.

YM1 and YM2 were very small runs and due to a host of reasons could not be reprinted. I’m sorry about that now, but the initial idea was to print it like a doujinshi, with short annual runs for shows. Then it got a little more popular and we had to print more, and then printing exploded and all our files couldn’t be read the same way and what had been high resolution was now very low and we didn’t have a way to fix that (or, in some cases, reach the artists to get the rights to reprint permission,) so those are long out of print.

WORKS by Eriko Tadeno, the second Yuri manga to ever be published in English is available for $7.  This collection of 4 stories that walk us through lesbian lives and loves, including stories of coming out to family, old school crushes and a workplace romance long before the current Shakajin craze.

Buy all 4 books for $25 – and with the code ALC2020, you’ll get free US shipping on orders of $25 or more! This code is good for any books and it’ll stay good, so feel free to hit them up later, for more manga!

I want to personally thank all of you who have already purchased these books – the folks at Cheapmanga let me know they *love* the kind notes and comments they’ve been getting. With all the conventions canceled, they’ve missed the interaction with fans. This morning I handed over another set of boxes and was told, specifically that my crowd was the nicest people. I’m so thankful to all of you for being the nicest people! ^_^ Definitely keep writing nice notes and comments for them, please. They’ve been good friends for many years, and the loss of conventions this year has been hard on them emotionally and business-wise.

Thank you all for your patience with this weekend’s website security issues and for your support of Yuri manga! And also of my massive cleanup of the office, because every box of books you buy is extra space for me! ^_^
