Yuri Studio Season 4 & A New Feature!

January 11th, 2023

Welcome to a whole new year of me making videos! This year, Season 4 of Yuri Studio, we’ve got two sets of features on tap. One, we’ll be doing panels and videos featuring fans and industry and scholars of Yuri talking about various aspects of the Yuri genre and history for Yuricon 2023.

Today I am launching my first, experimental video and new feature, Erica Reacts (not really) To, in which I will be reacting to various Episode 1s of Yuri anime coming out in 2023. This was requested by my patrons and I…well, I did my best. Here’s my first attempt at a “reaction” video. Kinda. ^_^

Here is Season 01 Epiode 04: Erica Reacts (not really) To: The Magical Revolution of Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady

 

 

I know it’s not really a react video. My life has blown up considerably this month and I have no real time to record myself watching something, or cutting and editing video clips. Instead, you’ve got my opinion about the episode. I’ve got some ideas for the next video, we’ll see if I have the time. ^_^

As always, I thank you for your likes, your kind comments and shares! If you have a video you’d like me to watch, I can add it to the list. ^_^





Today on Yuri Studio – A Brief History of Yuri, Part 2

December 30th, 2022
One last video for Season 3 of Yuri Studio!

Even though I only presented A (Very Brief) History of Yuri originally in 2016, so much has happened in the past few years that I wanted to do a quick update.  Here’s a look at a few things that the last 6 years brought us in Yuri. Today I present, A Brief History of Yuri, Part 2 (or, as I was joking as I write it, An Even Briefer History of Yuri. ^_^

As always, likes, comments, subscribes and shares all make a difference. YouTube watches and judges. ^_^ Thank you in advance.

Thank you so much to all my Okazu Patrons and Supporters for making this and all of our videos possible! 

Next year is the 20th anniversary of the first Yuricon event, and we got a great suggestion at the party, so Season 4 is going to be a lot of fun.  If you enjoy this or any of our videos, leave us a like and a kind comment! ^_^
