Yuri Manga
We have some new items on the Yuricon Store!
Watashi no Yuri ha Oshigoto Desu! Volume 7 (私の百合はお仕事です!) Miman’s Yuri-themed cafe drama is still moving along, as Hime and Mitsuki struggle to understand one another and, probably, themselves.
Yurizukushi no Kyoushitsu, Volume 1 (ゆりづくしの教室) by Shiime is an exploration of Yuri couples tropes, all together in one rowdy classroom.
Haruki Hiroki’s Watashi Igai Jinrui Zennin Yuri, Volume 2 (私以外人類全員百合 ) wraps up this science fiction story in which a straight girl ends up in a world where everyone is in a Yuri coupling. Here’s where you can find Volume 1.
Via Comic Natalie we have word of a Yuri school comedy which sounds like it might actually be funny, Yuri ni Hasamarete, Esper (百合に挟まれて、エスパー) by Suruga Kiryuu in Ultra Jump magazine. It’s about a girl who can read minds, who can’t not be aware of her friends’ secret relationship and passionate feelings for one another. I have always thought that ESP would be a horrid burden. ^_^
ANN’s Crystalynn Hodgkin reports the news that tMnR’s Tatoe Todokanu Ito da toshitemo, licensed by Kodansha as If I Could Reach You, will come to a climax in the December issue of Comic Yuri Hime, on sale in October.
Galette Meets 12 has gone out by PDF to all backers at their crowdfunding page, ガレット＠Fantia (ガレットワークス).

Yuri Anime
Massive news from Diskotek as they pick up the license for a bunch of Yuri fandom faves, including Rose of Versailles, Project A-ko (making them the first company since CPM/U.S. Manga Corps to put that out in a physical format), Battle Athletes, and happiest of all, Devilman Lady. Rafael Antonio Pineda gives you the scoop on ANN.
All of these titles have been reviewed here on Okazu in our first 20 years of existence and all are exceptional for one reason or another. But, I cannot stress this enough – Go Nagai’s Devilman Lady is an extraordinary Yuri anime, with a star voice Japanese cast. It is one of my favorite anime of all time. I’m very excited to see it come out again in time for it’s 20th anniversary. I’m only a little sad that they aren’t waiting for the 20th anniversary remastered set next year, but this is still going to be worth having.
My thanks to YNN Correspondent Shannon and a pile of other folks for sharing this news with us!
Brian Ruh has written up a great early review of Takako Shimura’s Happy Go Lucky Days anime for ANN which he streamed on Asian Pop-Up Cinema.
Otherside Picnic has a new, extended trailer. Crystalyn Hodgkins has details on ANN. I think it’s going to make a good visual media. We’ll be seeing it for ourselves in the new year.
Fragtime Blu-Ray is out now from Section 23 at pretty bargain price.
LGBTQ Comics
UK publisher ShortBox on Twitter announces a slate of new comics that include “lesbian space adventures and lesbian earth adventures.” ^_^
Other News
Megan on Twitter is stoked to noted that the upcoming anime Requiem for the Rose King, is “ the 2nd anime with a trans protagonist (after Wandering Son)? And the first with an intersex protag.” I know nothing about this series, and while a BL-adjacent harem isn’t going to be for me, some of you might enjoy it!
We were pretty stoked to hear that Naomi Watanabe will be voicing Zirconia in the new Sailor Moon Eternal movies. Daryl Harding has the story on Crunchyroll News.
