Comic Yuri Hime, May 2025 (コミック百合姫2025年5月号) cover by hechima shows our unnamed protagonists on March 23rd, 2018 11:40:52 GMT 1900/ 12 years old as they ask each other “So, any plans after this?” in English.

I find myself somehow comforted by the underlying narrative in Ashida Kawozu’s “Chou Fuka Uchuu Yori Ai o Komete” is about finding one’s self – and using that self to help others find themselves.

Likewise, I am enjoying Tamasaki Tama’s “Muryoku Seijo to Munou Oujo ~ Maryoku Zero de Shoukansareta Seijo no Isekai Kyuukokuki” very much and look forward to seeing what  is the source of the country’s miasma. It’s not all that surprising to me that a story of collaborations being stronger than a person alone is appealing to me. ^_^

Asahi Tetra’s “Magic Hour” is a story in which a girl falls in love with another girl’s vibe and finds she is loved in return. Not original, but cute nonetheless.

No clue how sheepD’s “Kanaria ha Kiraboshi no Yume o Miru” can resolve, but for the moment, Ayano’s fiance seems like he might not be a terrible person. Is there hope for her rescue Tsubaki from a life of prostitution?

Isana and Hime are drawing closer to understanding what happened to their world, when they run into the sister Isana is looking for…but she is not who Isana hoped to find, in “Garan no Hime,” by Korose.

Koharu and Minato investigate same-sex partnerships…and find that the paperwork is a bit more complicated than they expected, but it’s still important for them to be recognized as a couple in “Koharu to Minato.”

As always, there are many stories and  columns I read but have not mentioned and others I did not read.  And, as always, I am glad that there are both. ^_^A solid, but not outstanding issue.
