Now that I am making a concerted effort to catch up on the Yuricon Store, there are two things we must reckon with: 1) There will be a lot of additions in this week’s report and 2) There is SO MUCH Yuri coming out that, a week into the update, I have added as many items to my “to be added” list in my bookmarks as I have added things to the Store. ^_^; We are surrounded by an abundance of Yuri riches. So buckle in, we have a lot of cool stuff this week to get to!

Yuri Anime

The Lycoris Recoil Blu-Ray box set will be available in late August. It looks adorable. Save %30 with a pre-order on RightStuf.

Yuri Figurines

From the fine folks at Yuri Daily on Facebook, we have the news that Furyu is putting out two Yuri Is My Job! figurines. You can get our leads in their salon personas – Ayanokoji Mitsuki or Shirasagi Hime for about $130 USD each. These figurines are eerily life-like-to-the-anime.

Yuri Manga

Seven Seas announced the license of How Do I Get Together With My Childhood Friend?, by the creator of Monologue Woven For You, Syu Yasaka.

How Do We Relationship?, Volume  9 will be hitting shelves in late July. Miwa and Saeko’s relationship has gone through a lot, but they are still finding their best ways to be themselves.

Chasing After Aoi Koshiba, Volume 4 gave us an unexpected ending to the series. I reviewed it yesterday here on Okazu.

Superwomen in Love! Honey Trap and Rapid Rabbit, Volume 5 also completes this sentai Yuri series. Can a suited heroine and her arch-nemesis save the day?

From Blue Drop creator Akihito Yoshitomo My Future Starts Today ~Miku & Kyoko~, Volume 1 was picked up and translated into English by MediBang! as a digital license. Does anyone remember Blue Drop besides me, at this point? I liked it – especially the Drama CDs.

Qualia The Purple Manga Collection is now available on the Store, as well. Without question, the people who loved this story, love this story. I mean that in a kind way.

I’m In Love With The Villainess News

Crunchyroll has announced that they will be streaming the I’m In Love With The Villainess anime, which is headed our way in October. Rafael Antonio Pineda has the details over on ANN.

On her Pixiv Fanbox last week, inori.-sensei announced a new spin-off project I’m In Love With The Villainess. Maid’s Kitchen (私の推しは悪役令嬢。メイドキッチン) The art for this cooking comedy starring Rei, Claire and Lene, will be by Tsuke-sensei. It will also run in Comic Yuri Hime magazine. Take a look at the cover here on inori.-sensei’s twitter!

There are two more voiced comics for Wataoshi from Ichijinsha. You can find there here and here. That completes the series, I believe.
