Yuri Light Novel

Yuri Anime
Via Senior YNN Correspondent Sean G, we have some recommended reading. Lycoris Recoil And Shingo Adachi: Turning Original Anime Production Chaos In Your Favor,by kViN on Sakuga Blog, is an interesting – if uncritical – look at the behind the scenes changes that helped make Lycoris Recoil a barnburner this season.
From my perspective, LycoReco was less a masterwork of finesse than a really fun handwave – Noir with jokes. Most of the emotional impact was set dressing and wasn’t going to have real meaning right from the beginning, as we all recognized on the Okazu Discord. Fun, but not smart, or deep, with a million plot holes festooned about the narrative like balloons.
Yuri Doujinshi
New on Irodori Sakura 18+ is Pikachi’s Girlfriends Club, described thusly, “The Girlfriends Club: A mysterious association at Yamayuri Girls’ Academy and its sister schools that essentially pays you to spend time deepening your relationships with other club members. The catch? Your interactions are livestreamed to an audience of very wealthy viewers!”
If you’re fans of Our Teachers Are Dating by Pikachi Ohi, don’t miss Irodori’s translated version of Ohi-sensei’s own doujinshi about Kiyattou-sensei and her girlfriend, in Romance for Teachers.
Other News
