We have (finally!) a bunch of titles on the Yuricon Store!
Chasing After Aoi Koshiba, Volume 3 will be out in January 2022.
Eri Ejima’s popular Young Ladies Don’t Play Fighting Games, Volume 2 is out this month. Check out Luce’s review of Volume 1 last month on Okazu.
You can pre-order the print volume of Our Teachers Are Dating, Volume 4. This book has been delayed from a February release to an April one.
The pre-orders for the print edition of Tamifull’s How Do We Relationship, Volume 5 are up as well. This is still slated for a February release.
I’m in Love With the Villaness, Volume 2 of the manga is available on all three of our affiliates (at last!)
Watashi no Oshi ha Akuyaku Reijou., manga Volume 3 (私の推しは悪役令嬢。) is up on Amazon JP for pre-order to be released net week.
Watashi no Yuri ha Oshigoto Desu! Volume 9 (私の百合はお仕事です!) by Miman is on shelves now in Japan.
Seven Seas has licensed SHWD, by sono.N. Alex Mateo has the details on ANN, I reviewed volume 1 in September (after having also picked it up as doujinshi at Comitia AND bought it as translated doujinshi on Lilyka, so that out to give you a hint of how I feel about it.) I’m really thrilled that Seven Seas has clearly developed a relationship with Comic Ruelle & Comic Jardin, as well. They’ve so far had some great Yuri series.
Via Yuri Mother, Adachi and Shimamura has been named one of the Top 10 Manga of 2021 by School Library Journal.
Yuri Events
This week is smoking hot with two amazing events, I’d love to see you at! Shojo Manga: The Power and Influence of Girls’ Comics by The Japan Foundation will be held this week, on Thursday, December 16, 2021 from 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM EST. Registration is free and yes, barring disaster, the video will be posted on Youtube for folks who miss the discussion.
Following immediately after this, on Friday, Dec. 17, from 8:00 PM – 9:00 PM EST, please join myself and James Welker for a discussion of how BL and Yuri have grown over the last few decades, at CasaCon, on Discord! Registration is free. Last year we had a blast, so drop by for our casual conversation about massive changes in culture and media. ^_^
In case you missed it last week, the entire discussion from the Yuricon 20th Anniversary discussion event is up on Youtube.Thanks again to James Welker and Verena Maser for joining us.
Light Novels
Via Inori-sensei’s Twitter feed, I’m in Love With the Villainess has been released in French by LaNovel Edition.
Again, I know no one cares, but the 4th volume of Kunoichi Bettegumi Igarashi Satsuki (くノ一別手組ー五十嵐五月) china’s batshit samurai x probably-a-vampire period drama (some people write Madama Butterfly, other people write this) is on the Store, now. ^_^
Yuri Anime
Via Lesley Aeschliman, Pluto TV has added The Rose of Versailles TV anime!
Sentai Filmworks has re-released Canaan, the Complete Series for a fraction of the price I bought it for, yowza. That’s on the Yuricon Store now.
Anime-adjacent, Charagumin is going to be releasing a resin kit of Anthy and Utena, hat tip to Gangablu on Twitter.

Following your link for Canann to RightStuf I see that they have the complete Burst Angel Blu-ray collection for under $16 (possibly part of a sale), and Noir for not very much, either (it’s easy to see why they propose those two series for someone looking at Canann).
Exactly so. ^_^
