New Video – Yuri Studio S02 E07 Shakaijin Yuri: Yuri For Grownups

October 24th, 2021

I’m super pleased to announce a new Yuri Studio Video this week: S02 E07 Shakaijin Yuri: Yuri For Grownups is live on Youtube, with EN captioning.

As always, I hope you’ll consider subscribing to my channel if you haven’t already done so (and thank you if you have!) Likes, shares and comments feed the greedy maws of our AI overlords, so those are appreciated as well.

If you haven’t watched Yuri Studio before, I’m keeping a running thread of our videos on Twitter, or you can bookmark the Yuri Studio playlist.

Thank you to all our Okazu patrons for making this and all our videos possible. If you’d like to see these keep coming, why not become an Okazu Patron today?





New Yuri Studio Video – S02E06 Two Questions About Yuri (and Literature)

October 3rd, 2021

This week on Yuri Studio, I take a look at two questions I received from Patrons: What is the deal with Yuri Vampires? and Why is Yuri always Romance Stories?

I hope you’ll tune to S02E06 Two Questions About Yuri (and Literature) and, once again, please give the video a like on YouTube and subscribe to the channel…our AI overlords demand it. ^_^





New Yuri Studio Video for Okazu Patrons!

September 26th, 2021

After last week’s flawed attempt at live recording, a new Yuri Studio is available to all Okazu Patrons! I took a few questions from patrons and answered them this time on Yuri Studio.

All Okazu Patrons get early access to videos and research – and all active Patrons will get a digital copy of By Your Side: The First 100 Years of Yuri Anime and Manga, when it publishes in summer 2022. Patrons also get to submit questions for Yuri Studio videos and an invitation to our end of year holiday party!

Most importantly, Okazu Patrons help support our writers, our research, our video and website staff and most importantly, Okazu Patrons make it possible for us to contribute directly to Yuri creators to support their work.  If you enjoy our news and reviews and videos, I hope you’ll become an Okazu Patron today.

Your support goes a long way to keeping the Yuri ecosystem alive and healthy. Thanks so much to our Okazu Patrons for making this new video possible. ^_^





New Video on Yuri Studio! S02 E05 Gateway Anime Part 3: The 2010’s – Present

August 30th, 2021

In a blatant attempt to give myself more time to read Watashi no Oshi ha Akuyaku Reijou, Volume 5, the newest video on Yuri Studio is now public! Yuri Studio S02 E05 Gateway Anime Part 3: The 2010’s – Present completes the Yuri Gateway anime series and wow, was that a lot of fun. ^_^ This video starts in the 2010’s and drags us into the present and contains a wish for the future. ^_^

I apologize, there is an error in this video. Akikan! was an Ultra Jump comic, not Dengeki. I was so sure that I remembered it from a Dengeki magazine, I didn’t double-check. My mistake. Thanks to CW for pointing that out.  I stand by my point, however. I know several manga artists who have shifted from Dengeki/Kadokawa because they did not want a short-run anime to market the manga. (And, Akikan! was absurd. ^_^)

 

Thanks so much to Okazu Patrons for their suggestions and for their support, which helps us to make these videos!

Next one, I’m thinking of doing as a live stream, as the topic is short, but densely packed. Let me know if that sounds interesting. ^_^

As always, your likes and subscribes (and comments and shares) on YouTube help us so much, thank you in advance for those!





It’s Time for a Yuri Celebration!

August 13th, 2021

I’m taking the rest of this week and weekend off to do a couple of things:

Celebrate the Yuricon Community’s 20th Anniversary Online Event. There are a small number of spaces left before tomorrow’s event at 8AM Eastern US Time, so if you haven’t registered yet, please register today.

Work on the next Yuri Studio video (Gateway Yuri Anime, Part 3!)

Work on By Your Side: The First 100 Years of Yuri Anime and Manga, because we are coming on a deadline for this part of the process.

And watch the last Evangelion movie. I’m an otaku, after all.

I’ll see you on Zoom tomorrow!
