Yuri Manga
The second volume of Hanakage Alt’s romance between a Korean pop idol and her # fan moves over to a Korea arc in Unnie ‘tte Yondemo Ii Desuka?, Volume 2 (オンニって呼んでもいいですか?)
Via the series’ official X account, Tsukiritai Onna to Tabetai Onna, Volume 7 (作りたい女と食べたい女) will be released in Japan mid-December. She Loves to Cook and She Loves to Eat, Volumes 1-5 are available in English. I have reviewed them all here on Okazu.
Not Yuri, but definitely queer interest, CandleA announced “Shinai Warera ha Zetsumetsu Shinai“ (シない我らは絶滅しない), by Shinmaki Issa, about “woman confronting life as an asexual, and a gal.” Read it now in Japanese on Comic Walker.
Our friends at PEOW2 have announced the license for Alien 9! In the early days of Yuricon’s first ML, that series had a lot of fans.

Decide whether or not you’ll stay together. “
Via Babs on Bluesky, The Sea is Our Stage demo is on Steam. “..a noblewoman uncovers her father’s evil plot and, along with her lowborn friends, takes to the seas to flee from high society. Her plan to right her family’s wrongs and return home are disrupted by the untimely arrival of an enigmatic and flirtatious pirate.”

Yuri Light Novel
Unsung Epics of the Heros’ Journey, Volume 2 is up on Bookwalker Global! I found Volume 1 to be a really decent read when I reviewed it here on Okazu. I’m looking forward to reading V2.
Not really Yuri (although there is a overblown desire for intimacy as a repeat gag), but if you’re a bloodthirsty person like me, I really do recommend the Nia Liston: Merciless Maiden light novels. I’m reviewing them for ANN. They’ve been fantastic.
