>Anyone read 夜森の国のソラニ or うらら迷路帖?
I have a bad habit of buying mildly yuri 4-koma and never reading them. These are on that list for me.

>Also interested if anyone has suggestions for other unknown and non-translated yuri series.
Since you posted about 4-koma, here are some yuri 4-koma I liked a lot and never saw any discussion about:
▲コンプレックス (鴨鳴 アヒル)
スマイル・スタイル (筋肉太郎)
3年2組の呪い屋さん (柚木 涼太)

There are a lot of interesting works being posted with that yuri network hashtag on twitter.

I've read the first volumes of both, waiting for the paperbacks of Yorumori to arrive in a few days to continue and the kindle second volume of Urara only came out today so haven't had the chance to read that yet. Both first volumes are exposition so can't say much about the overarching plots.

There's a shoddy review for the beginning of Yorumori that touches upon some things https://medium.com/catgirl-reviews/yorumori-no-kuni-no-sorani-vol-1-7810bea08863 - tl;dr it's very colorful and weird and that's the main thing going for it. And an unfinished for Urara https://medium.com/@Anonyshinki/efe0cd3456b2

Both Yorumori and Urara are primarily about the small stories happening in their respective settings. The art is very cute, in Urara fantastically cute. There's not much yuri in either, but subtext a plenty (healthy girl friendships abound) and given the art goggles work well. Where Yorumori is a bit too weird at times, I could easily see Urara getting an anime adaptation, that's how good it is. If you like your supernatural slice of lifes as much as I do, I recommend both - or pick your poison depending on whether you like Shoulder-a-coffin Kuro style weird things or Dandelion style supernatural but everyday misadventures. Also, Yorumori has plenty of guys if you care about that, although all of them side or gag characters (or old goats) and Urara is set in an all-girl town.

Out of other yuri-ish titles I've recently read Chevalier is funny, it's set in medieval times with girls aiming to become knights - but it's as light-hearted as it gets, almost full-on gags and comedy, and some of the girls clearly like some of the other girls.

These re-releases of Junsui Adolescence and Kono Kutsu Shirimasen ka? mean they are going to have Kazuma Kowo and Mizutani Fuka write yuri again, right? Right?

>>1930407
Is there any new content on re-releases or are they just something like second editions?

>>1930521
It depends. The re-releases for Renai Manga and Konohanatei Kitan had extras, for example. However, I don't think the Yuri Hime A5 -> B6 re-releases have any significant extras, but can't confirm that first hand.

Looking at the number of pages, 148 vs. 194, there is new content in the new Junsui Adolescence release. I don't see a listing for Kono Kutsu Shirimasen ka? yet, but I imagine it will have some new content as well based on that.

>>1930521
Kazuma Kowo has confirmed (via twitter) there will be some additional content, Mizutani Fuuka hasn't promised anything afaik.

I don't see this listed anywhere, where'd you see that it's getting a new version? I'm lucky enough to own the first edition, but I'd get it again if it has extras. I hope all the reprinting means we'll be seeing them write again, it has been way too long.

This is a new western release which I just finished reading. I liked it, but the story isn't too groundbreaking, it is like if someone combined a time travel story with a lecture on the importance of civil rights movements. It felt rushed so it didn't have the impact I was expecting, but the art is nice and the novelty was worth it for me. Since you can practically count the number of comics with lesbian MCs on one hand I thought others might be interested as well.

Hey guys, does any one have any tips for buying yuri manga in Tokyo? I will be visiting next week. I had a look at the Okazu guide, but I'm still a little confused - just hope to wing it.

>>1934846
What is it that you're unsure of? I just skimmed the relevant bits of the 2014 guide and it seemed pretty accurate. The most important points (imo) being:

Know the publisher, label, author and title in Japanese (doesn't hurt to know what the cover and/or spine looks like either). A spreadsheet works really well for this.

Station names. Akihabara, Ikebukuro, Nakano and to a lesser degree Shibuya and Shinjuku are where you'll find the highest concentrations of shops selling yuri. I mainly shop in Akihabara, so that's all I can really help with.

I will also add that 99% of the time, new releases will be in a separate section. Sometimes things languish in that section for quite a while, so if you can't find something where you expect then check the new releases area.

H-have a map. It's not a comprehensive list of all shops where manga and doujinshi are sold, just my favourites (there will be a strong bias towards stores that also stock yuri doujinshi). Things can change pretty quickly, so some (or all!) of this information might be outdated even though I was just there in August.

I also couldn't help myself and wrote a bunch of notes about the stores, tl;dr version is:
For yuri manga selection and ease of browsing (not scattered around a huge store): ZIN > ToraA > *
For special extras with new releases: melonbooks = Tora(any) = ZIN (really depends on the release)
For original yuri doujinshi, ZIN = ToraA > ToraC = melonbooks
Yodobashi is just on there for orienting purposes, but it's a fun place to browse gadgets and other stuff. I'm also 99% sure the DJ equipment demo area Kei and Emi visit in After Hours is the one from Yodobashi Akiba, so you could drop by for a pilgrimage if you like that series.

Here's the full thing (has some tips about how to find the entrances when they're tricky): http://pastebin.com/XDdpMPbT

>>1934846
>>1935244
btw, I apologize for my mapmaking skills (or lack thereof). In case it's unclear, the bear head is the approximate location of the shop.

>spending almost an entire day searching for, agonizing over, and finally ordering some doujinshi
I always feel awkward communicating with proxies and stuff in English when they're clearly based in Japan, but I actually got a lot of polite and helpful responses. Feels good man.

>>1935244
>>1935255
The difference between imprint and publisher, and which branches result in highest concentration of yuri. I did a quick trial search in a random Tsutaya, and found a volume of AnoKiss, so I'm getting the swing of searching for tankobon.

Thanks for the detailed map and info, will definitely be relying on in Tokyo. I didn't realise how close together some of the shops are.

>>1936014
That feel is a good feel indeed.

>>1936316
>The difference between imprint and publisher
Publisher is essentially the parent company, and what okazu calls "imprint" is the label under which the company has decided to sell that manga. It's often related to what magazine it ran in. e.g. Fujieda Miyabi's Twinkle Saber Nova and Ameiro Kouchakan Kandan are both published by Ichijinsha, but TSN was published under the REX label and AKK under Yuri Hime.

>and which branches result in highest concentration of yuri. I did a quick trial search in a random Tsutaya, and found a volume of AnoKiss, so I'm getting the swing of searching for tankobon.
Generally the specialty shops are going to have a better concentration than general bookstores. Good to hear you're getting the hang of it!

>I didn't realise how close together some of the shops are.
Yup, Akihabara is pretty dense. You can still spend days shopping there though, so much to look at.

What are some yuri manga that has yet to be scanned/bought by raw providers? Or maybe even manganthat need betters scans? In Japan right now and close to a store that sells manga. There's a homo section and I might get the courage to look for it there and scan it for you when I get home.

>>1937416
There's certainly no shortage of unscanned yuri, what interests you? If you like the Kumichou series scanning the tank extra would surely be helpful.

>>1937552
>scanning the tank extra would surely be helpful
d/a but I'm assuming you mean 愛羅武勇より愛してる and not B.B.Girls right? I have digital for all three and can probably provide what you're looking for.

>>1937559
Yes, I mean the extra (fifth story) and afterword from 愛羅武勇より愛してる. If you could oblige it would be much appreciated.

>>1937416
Mebae maybe? That way everyone can properly get mad about Amazume Ryuta's story.

>>1937559
>B.B.Girls
How was this one? I liked Kumichou's yuri stories a lot, but Aidore! Green Rhapsody hasn't been quite as good to me.

>How was this one?
I'm not loving Aidore! either, and I thought B.B.Girls was fun. Not nearly as good as the yuri works and a little rambling, but charming. There's a bit of goggle fodder iirc, but I wouldn't read it expecting yuri.

>>1937679
Is there a reason to scan something if there is a digital version available? I'm curious, since it seems to me like working from digital would save a lot of trouble.

>間宮さんといっしょ
Don't get into this my friend, it's on perma-hiatus.

>>1937679
Some of them look like they would be good, ダークチェリーと少女A, さようならむつきちゃん, 少女惑星. A few looked promising but don't seem worth it like 悪戯ちょうちょ apparently 3 volumes end on a parting as expected, and 間宮さんといっしょ has little plot and no ending at all.

The rest of the list is iffy at best, a lot of it doesn't look like it has any yuri while stuff like 裸足のキメラ and 月と泥 is only worth it if you like the VESPA author. I'm hoping your last one was a joke because according to the synopsis it is about a girl falling in love with her father.

>>1937699
>悪戯ちょうちょ
I've read it and the parting is not permanent, just something that's necessary for them to eventually fulfill their dream of touring together. Of course you only get to see up until the point of parting, but that does sort of fit with the style of the story.

Sorry, but it'd nice if someone could translate them to Romaji? Most yuri manga I saw there had a romaji translation as well so it'd make my life easier. If that's too much of a request then I can just try looking for 'em blindly. No promises!

>>1937730
And even more tedious, pictures of their covers/spines! I doubt anyone would do that though. Maybe if you really like a specific one off that list? Thanks.

>>1937697
Thank you very much. Is it permissible to use this for a release?

>>1937699
>I'm hoping [the] last one was a joke
I don't think it was, as multiple stories in the collection do have lesbian characters. Since the focus is on straight relations though I don't know that I'd call it yuri. There are public raws available for it if you're inclined, however it's an earlier printing and doesn't contain the second relevant story.

>>1937679
As they appear on the covers:

Maidens in the Forest of Wild Roses - Marimo Shirasawa (vol 2)
Hourai Girls - Row Yamada
[3: >>1937723]
Maidens in the Cradle - Miyoshi Furumachi
I Want to End the World, Too - Sakamoto Mano
Mamiyasan to Issyo - Gaoshi
Mischievous Butterfly - [Ayase Mana]
The Moon & Mud - Ohkita Hiroko
[Japanese only, but it's Hadashi no Kimera or Barefoot Chimera by Ohkita Hiroko]
Baba-yaga - Akira Kudiki + Nanki Satou (vol 2 and 3)
Love Buzz - Takako Shimura [note: public raws are available for this complete series]
Switch Witch - Sayaka Mogi
Sayounara Mutsuki Chan - Yuki Isoya*
Dark Cherry with Shoujo A - Chisako
Kageki-shojo! - [Saiki Kumiko]
Girls Planet - Kashiwabara Mami*
[repeated title]
[Japanese only, but it's Akari wo Kudasai] - Konno Kita

The best way to see the cover images is probably to just search the Japanese title.

*These two titles may already be good for scans, I'll verify. (I'm not the one who posted the initial list incidentally)

>>1937734
>Is it permissible to use this for a release?
For sure.

>>1937679
>>1937740
>間宮さんといっしょ
>Mamiyasan to Issyo - Gaoshi
Raws are available for this. I think they're site rips but if it's just for reading they should suffice. If tank raws are needed for a project and none are currently available, I can convert mine.

>>1937745
Is the digital ripping a relatively painless process? Is it something you'd be willing to do for other releases you own?

>>1937751
Yes (http://pastebin.com/j5n5zSuN) and probably. The thought of uploading everything makes me mildly nervous, but if there is a project requiring assistance then sure (subject to personal preference).

>>1937971

Nah, Kawaii Scans has been slowly doing Kanamemo for years.

>>1937908
Sorry, had to update my library first: http://pastebin.com/gt6sA5hC
Some non-yuri ones probably made it into the dump as well, I tried to filter but I'm sure I missed a few.

There are also a number of books I'd be willing to re-purchase in digital form, just not sure how to make a list of those.

I have no moral objection to personal use, I just don't want to upload enough to attract any kind of attention and I don't know where else to draw the line. Sharing the data itself should be fine, I haven't been able to detect any purchaser-unique crap in the files I've tested. Though I do realize that could silently change at any time.

>>1937889
>do they even sell manga there?
If you mean Mandarake, then yeah.

>>1938123
That's quite an impressive list. Can I request rips of 彼女×彼女, ガールズ シンドローム, それでもやっぱり恋をする, キミイロ少女, 少女2, 妹ができました, and 白銀ギムナジウム?

>>1937974
Maybe, but the author could at least have some decency of not putting it as the first story and as the summary of the book. I have doubt that the rest of the tank would be any better.

Such a shame because i like that art.

>>1938233
The Magic Flute two-parter and My Odile are both in that collection. They're invalidated because you don't like the first line in the title story? And while Isoya may or may not have set the story order, I really doubt she wrote the blurb.

>>1938251
I know there might be other good one shots in there, but I don't really have the luxury of holding the tank in hand ans skim through everything before deciding on my purchase. Instead, I have to make do with summary and whichever snippet they put up on their website.

It's hard for me to assume that there are comfy yuri waiting for me in that tank if that's the impression they want to create from the preview material.

So in this case throwing in the trash means electing not to buy

Planning on going to Mandarake tomorrow but I'm too embarassed to look now since I don't even know where the yuri section is. I did find their BL section last time I went though, and it was a bit awkward when they turned their heads and saw a large gaijin walking in.

Oh, I was in Mandarake Shibuya today but I was too embarrassed to check out the R18 section, couldn't find any non-R18 yuri section either. Do girls get a lot of stares looking at yuri? Maybe I'm too self-conscious and awkward. I'll try again in Mandarake Ikebukuro.

>>1939817
Women are the main readership

>>1939817
>Do girls get a lot of stares looking at yuri? Maybe I'm too self-conscious and awkward.
I'm horribly self-conscious and despite all my furtive checking I've never noticed anyone giving me more than the usual "ah, a foreigner" look.

>>1940033
I don't think this is true anymore.

>>1940952
Anyone who is surprised to see women in the Yuri section just doesn't understand what women like.

>tfw my last batch of doujinshi seems to be stuck in limbo for 2 days (tracking update stopped)

I'm gonna buy a few books from Comiket and I'll probably focus more on the Akari Generation of girls (HinaJuri specifically).

I'm having second thoughts in buying K-Zima's books because the artist is a known Raichi fag and tried to shove their het delusion to that IchiAo trilogy book (first 2 done by yuri-ism and the last one by Sexy Akiba Detectives). Their art is fucking amazing to say the least.

TL;DR

To anyone who owns this book: does it contain only yuri?

I bought some stuff from Tora and Melon and I found out (the hard way) that doujinshi sell out very fast. I was waiting for some books to come out and by the time they're available, the others got sold out.

Note to self: Buy a set once they're available and don't wait for the rest to become available.

Pic related: one of the books I just bought.

>>1940952
Self consciousness is one thing. Regardless, R18 and Yuri is mostly consumed by women due to fact that most of Yuri authors are by women for women and even the female yaoi authors do not seem to mind crossing over to yuri too.

>>1938498
>>Embarrassed
I can understand that, but if you are serious about finding gems, there is no other way than to ask for Yuri. Maybe wear a disguise and just ask?

>>1957947
>Regardless, R18 and Yuri is mostly consumed by women
>most of Yuri authors are by women for women
I can't understand how you came to this conclusion, since that's certainly not what I've observed. I doubt either of us can cite sources though, so all I can really do is politely disagree.

>>1957950
>there is no other way than to ask for Yuri
Nah, you can definitely just skulk around until you find it yourself. I've never asked.

>>1958714
What sort of observations do you mean?

It's not an especially large sample size but Yotsuhara Furiko happened to do a poll of her Twitter followers a couple days ago and only 31% are male.

>>1958727
Like I said, nothing empirical -- just what I've seen being out there at events, shopping, reading blogs/twitter, looking at how YH's ads and columns have changed as its popularity has risen, etc.

Now if only Yotsuhara Furiko were still producing yuri. Bitter tears aside, it doesn't suprise me that Yotsuhara's followers are female, but that doesn't mean much on a broader scope.

>>1958727
>>1958829
Wouldn't it depend on the style of yuri too — whether it's more shoujo/josei or shounen/seinen? I mean, something like Girl Friends appeals more greatly to a female audience, whereas Murcielago seems geared towards a male audience. This is not a strict indicator of audience, however. (I enjoy both!)

>>1959065
Definitely, which is why I wouldn't be surprised that Yotsuhara's fans are female.
Though I'm going to be a pain and question the Girl Friends example, as it ran in a seinen magazine and I suspect men make up a significant number of its readers.

>>1933211

Heya, I'm leaving Japan in a couple months and I've yet to find any yuri section in any BookOff (I'm near Osaka so I have Shinsaibashi, Namba, and another to search). Can anyone help? I found Blue Drop 1 in the Champion Red 100yen section but I've had no luck on any other publisher for the manga I want. やがて君になる ほしいなぁ。

You just have to dig through the sections or have a general idea of the title you are looking for. Publishers help too. I've found a good amount of yuri in the 100 yen section. Take your time and search. Or go to a bigger Book-off. If it's really specific just order it off Amazon?

>>1963455
I've seen many yuri manga in several Book-offs in Tokyo, but やがて君になる may be hard to find second hand since it's quite popular.
Is there no Animate or something nearby? Any regular anime/manga shop and larger bookstore should have it though.
Or just order it online.

The categories/tagging is crap, though. Most yuri isn't tagged yuri and lots of things tagged yuri are just usual straight crap with some girl-girl boob groping or whatever. Just use it for artists you're familiar with or to find Tora links for books you already know you want to buy.

I think this comes with a 1st print bonus art card set packed in (pic) but I'm not positive, can any better readers confirm? If it is a first print only bonus then it is going to sell out quickly so pre-order if you don't want to miss out, limited edition Momono Moto art is worth it.

Does anyone know of any other limited release yuri on Amazon that I should add to the order? There is too much good yuri already this year, I'm running out of money.

Also, anyone here buy the Tachibanakan to-lie-angle special edition and can comment on its worth?

>>1996494
The first print (from Feb 21 sell date) has a printing error on the 17th page, 4th panel, which is why they added that apology present. The 2nd edition has the error fixed.
I'm not sure if all of the remaining ones at Tora/Melon/Zin have been taken care of, but you'd have to go get the postcard set from them afterwards anyway if there were some left. Anyone who already bought one of the first editions has to go and get the postcard set from them (I think at events (Comitia, GLFes, etc.) only?) or contact them. Or trade it in for a 2nd edition, but who would pick that over the postcard set?

Well it still hasn't been listed at any other retailers like Honto so I'll keep my Amazon pre-order and see what comes in. I kind of expect something special for 1,500 yen, but I'm such a sucker for Momono Moto that I'd probably buy a separate copy of the 1st edition to go with the 2nd just because.

>LOVELY!~愛しのまめっち 〈微妙なカンケイ〉1巻 (コミックノベル「ヨムコ」)
Also anyone know anything about this? 3 volumes of what looks kind of like a Kase-san light novel although I guess it isn't and I'm stumped as to why Takashima Hiromi is illustrating someone else's writing with Yamada and Kase-san's likeness.. It doesn't have a print copy (yet?) so I haven't bought it.

>>1997427
The only places that sold it from 2/21 were tora/melon/zin + the GLF16 event and Amazon's sells on 3/07, and remember this is to keep misprinted copies out of stock, so I wouldn't get my hopes up. Maybe the postcards will show up on Manda or Y!A or something.

>>1997427
>why Takashima Hiromi is illustrating someone else's writing with Yamada and Kase-san's
Because sameface is essential to artist, of course.
To falseflag.

>ハルユリ

I skimmed the preview on the publisher's site and it looks like it is 100% happy lesbians without any sign of het. The 2-page spread is even a kiss. Anyone reading it that can confirm if it is worth buying?

My Amazon JP got kind of suspended. Help.

I was going to buy an ebook. Before I added a card there, I already had two addresses: one is international (my actual address) and the other is local (just Tenso). The card wasn't binded to any address yet so when I clicked the buy button I was asked which address. Just to test it, I selected the international address, and it had a problem with my payment. I edited the address to the JP one and retried but I got the same message. (Plus, I think it says it needs to confirm address or something but I ignored it because of the moon.) I re-edited the address, deleting, re-adding, and retried a number of times but it's a no go. That was last night. This morning I tried buying a gift card but this time I got an email saying, "We have removed your access to this account because we could not confirm your payment information. You will not be able to access your account or place orders with us until we confirm your information."

What do I do now? Do I confirm the Tenso address or something, or can I try making a new account with the same card but only having a Japanese address? Should I wait a week or month before making a new account with the same card? The email also said, "We ask that you not open new accounts because any new order that you place may be delayed." so I'm on the fence about creating a new account with the same card.

How to buy and rip from ebj?

Regarding buying doujins physically in Japan.

I usually keep to the all age areas because of how vile a lot of the adult doujins are and because as a female, I am reluctant to enter such a male dominated space. It sucks that I can't go searching for adult Yuri though. Does anyone know where/which floor I should head to in Akiba's Toranoana A, for example. Is there a Yuri area or do they usually sort their shelves by series?

7F:成年向け同人誌(アニメ/マンガ/小説/人気サークル)
6F:成年向け同人誌(ゲーム/その他)
5F:創作系同人誌(一般向け/成年向け)、成年向け同人ソフト
4F:一般向け同人誌(アニメ/マンガ/小説/ゲーム/その他)

Based on this, I would expect Toranoana A to sort by series? I do know that the all age original yuri are on the 5th floor.

I'm open to suggestions if anyone knows of another store where the adult yuri are a lot more accessible (melonbooks, ZIN, other parts of Tokyo etc).

>>2014051
I went to Akiba's Toranoana before. If I'm not mistaken, they have a yuri corner with some doujinshi and comics. (When I went there, it was Itou Hachi's section) You can find it either at 4th floor or 7th floor. (Or ask the clerk where the yuri section is. Don't worry about being a female)

As for doujinshi, I think Mandarake doujin section has quite a lot if you want to search for some titles. You need to search properly though.

IMO, Toranoana has a better yuri section.

>>2014051
In my experience doujinshi is usually organized by the work they are based on. Original doujinshi should be their own section though but I don't think yuri gets its own section very often. You could try the Mandarake in Ikebukuro if you want a store that only women go to but it might not have much yuri since it seems to be filled with BL. I think the upper levels in Toranoana had plenty of girls visiting last time I was there though.

Anybody signed up for docomo's anime streaming service? It keeps saying my CC doesn't exist.

Anyone who uses Honto notice that 2016 has been light on promos? Last year I was getting targeted 10% off coupons every month and they had weekly 10% points promos. Now there is maybe a 5% off paper comic promo once a month.

>>2018881
I've hardly seen the 5% promos. Everything is for ebooks these days.

Any good deals lately?

>>2024856
Honto has a 2x or 5x point promo for manga or sets respectively. It seems like that is the best we can do for now.

Legally Married Yuri Book getting a release and Chiyo-chan's Marriage has a full volume of material? When did that happen? I hope this means all the other oneshots will be published as well.

I'm disappointed they are the 734 yen size books though, I would gladly pay extra to have Itou Hachi in a larger format. Well , at least I get to put that money towards the 2 dozen other books I need to import this month to keep up with all these new releases. I never thought I'd see so much yuri come out in one month that I can barely fit them all in a reasonably sized order.

>>2026969
I'm assuming it's Chiyo-chan's Marriage and other one shots to fill out the book, but we will see.

I would have preferred the A5 size as well. YH keeps releasing books in A5, so I half forgot they switched to B6 until I looked at the prices.

I did a small map thing to show everyone how to look for yuri manga in Akihabara's Book Off!
I'm there every Saturday and I end up finding some great stuff sometimes (like extremely new releases that are 300Y off their original price, or old gems).
The 100Y corner, expecially the one I marked in orange, tends to have more old yuri releases since it's close to the place where they stock up all YuriHime related stuff.

>>2045469
Oh dang there's another Onee-sama in Japan? To add onto this, there's also a nice area by the artbooks for old single doujins, lots of touhou if your willing to sift. I still try to search by publisher for the really specific stuff so that also helps.

>>2045614
>>2045614
Oh yeah, the doujin section (you're right by the way, it's full of Touhou).
I only check there every once in a while just in case there's something interesting but I'm not really a big Touhou fan and there's not a lot of other series I like there, once I found a Love Live one though so it was worth the effort!

Great tip too, if someone's looking for a specific title to try and search by publisher, but also try to check the 100Y places for that since they tend to stuff a bunch of publishers there without an specific order (the orange corner I marked is really disorganized sometimes for some reason).

Booth is kind of cool. Their rates, which seem pretty favorable for authors, and the boost thing make me feel like I'm actually supporting the authors. The separate carts are annoying though.

Ato de shimaimasu. is probably the "fraternal love" series without yuri that japanese people were complaining about in the last YH issues. I'll buy the first tank to give it a try and judge it myself.

Prince Prince has trap, reverse trap and het, i didn't buy the first volume and I'm not gonna buy it now that they cut it at the second volume.

The other two are probably the usual collections of one shots, I'll try Mimoto's one.

As for Kuzushiro's new series, I'm trying to get some info about them since months but I didn't really found anything. Sono mama de ii is probably full het, Renai kowai looks like it has a pervert MC and a guy always on her side. Ani no yome to kurashite imasu actually looks like the most yuri about them but from the title you can already imagine what's going on. I'm not gonna buy them until I see some raws to see what they're really about.

> it is in decline

Personally for me it just kept getting better in the third volume (and in the latest YH issue.) I suppose it might be too light on Plot Events(tm) for some people but it's full of relatable character moments and those are catnip for me. In addition the latest chapter (latest YH) promises some excitement and a catalyst for the two main characters' relationship.

Already got most of the other stuff you listed, but I'm still getting Futaribeya 3 and this as a bit of a wild card: https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E5%BE%93%E8%80%85%E3%81%AE%E4%BC%91%E6%97%A5-%E7%99%BE%E5%90%88%E5%A7%AB%E3%82%B3%E3%83%9F%E3%83%83%E3%82%AF%E3%82%B9-%E3%81%9B%E3%81%8D%E3%81%AF%E3%82%89/dp/4758075794?ie=UTF8&ref_=pe_492632_237830202_TE_item

>>2102028
You only need the /dp/##########/ part from amazon urls. e.g. https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/4758075794/

>>2102039
Oh, cool, didn't know that.

Well that does look interesting, although I didn't know YH published actual porn. I might get that as well.
>ろみちゃんの恋、かな?
Those faces, oh my god.

B.G.M.R.S.P's author caught my attention but I can't tell if this will amount to anything.

Kuzushiro's recent het writing spree hasn't consumed another series, has it?
>あやかしこ
Riku to Haru to Onsen to Iruka author. Has a surprising number of good reviews but I'm guessing that there's only subtext at best.
> G女子!
Is this a yuri sex comedy or a sex comedy i.e dick jokes with incidental yuri?
>猫瞽女
The art looks decent for an action manga. Is this actually yuri?
>放課後にじげんめ!
The new YH doesn't do subtle, do they? Anyone reading it?
>マーメイド・ラヴァーズ 2
Didn't know that was already out, I guess I'll buy it too.

>>2102028
Thanks, that's good to know, I'll get 2DK after all.

>>2102077
>従者の休日

I heard the censors were horrid.

>>2102097
They are. The sample pages on amazon.co.jp have a few examples of their terrible use of white bars. The stuff Shuninta gets away with makes drawing censor-worthy lewds like this very tacky.

Anyone know anything about Good Night Angel? It's a MTK series with three tanks out currently. I'm assuming it's a 4koma. From what little I've seen of it, could be yuri harem.

>>2102146

>>2102027
B-but yuri doesn't sell, according to butthurt anons, there can't be this many manga with yuri around.

>Kuzushiro's recent het writing spree hasn't consumed another series, has it?
Kuzushiro's twitter has lots of images like this.
From what I can decipher with my elementary rune skills, the summary on amazon.jp says it's about a girl named Shino who ends up living with her brother's widowed wife. Also, both her parents are dead.

So... basically, age gap with the older woman probably not being a virgin if that sort of thing rustles your jimmies.

>>2102077
>>従者の休日
>Well that does look interesting, although I didn't know YH published actual porn. I might get that as well.

Yuri Hime never published that in their magazine. It's from outside doujin works. And did you forget about YH Wildrose? They were publishig porn in the past, like Sweet Little Devil.

>>2101934
>Debating on getting 2DK, G-Pen 3 since I saw someone say it is in decline.

Well, reading some reviews of 2DK I can tell that they are not very positive as in terms of yuri. Story might be good but where's yuri? Where's the romance or at least a yuri crush in this story? In vol 3 there's a big flashback about Yuki and her crush on some guy. Seriously? What the heck?

And that comment about YH is not very optimistic for the future.

編集長曰く「百合姫は百合専門誌だと言ったことは一度もない」だそうですから、百合姫に百合を求めるのは間違いみたいです。タイトル詐欺、ここに極まれりという感じでしょうか。

Is YH editor really said that? Anyone can confirm that?

>>2102245

Stop giving trigger warnings to people like that.

Both volumes of Bloom Into You sold over 100k.

The question is if it's really yuri or not.
And judging from what you can read online, it isn't.

Has anyone tried using booth.pm to get doujinshi digitally?
I've noticed some artists I follow have started putting their older works on it, and was wondering if there was anything good that never got scanned that might be on it.

>>2104035
Most prolific artists only put one or two things on it, and not a lot of artists use it exclusively or anything. There is good stuff on there, though, some of it unscanned.

There's some subtext, but the ghost of the brother is pretty much everywhere.
Now to wait and see if something comes out of it.

There is a survey on the site of this >>2103574 new yuri anthology, spend some time to fill it. There isn't the "abroad" option but it's possible to leave that field empty.
Let japanese know that we want more yuri.

It's now in stock again. Chapter 6 will be released on August 15th, though amazon only has a kindle version listed so far.

From the obi of the 10th volume of Otome no teikoku:

>the most viewed on Grand Jump WEB ever
>Japan representative yuri manga

Where is the anime?

Not much stuff this month. I'll try 餡さんぶるっ! and 魔法がつかえる中学生日記.
Also, anyone know how is スロウスタート?

Hey guys, how do you buy from Kindle Store at Amazon? Anyone used open VPNs? I'm kind of scary to use them but don't have money for the private one.

Also, new feature, kindle unlimited, has a lot of YH manga. Maybe someone can rip those we haven't seen scans for? Like Shoujo Shikkaku 2.

>>2111423
I only used open vpn for registering account and the first buy. After that I don't use it anymore. I will try that kindle unlimited. There's 30-days free trial.

>>2111423
>Maybe someone can rip those we haven't seen scans for? Like Shoujo Shikkaku 2.
Got it.

Damn, I have now access to a lot of yuri works. I can finally read what I wanted to read.

My first ever imported manga. Come at me, slippery slope!

>>2113062
>Come at me, slippery slope!
I don't know if you should ask for that. I've probably spent over $10k on this stuff by now.

>>2113062
Feels good. So good you want to buy some more. Just one more box.
Shipping isn't that much and the books are cheap anyway. Just one more box.
The yen in rising but new volumes just came out for all the series I like. Just one more box.
It flew around the world to get here and now its mine forever. Just one more box.
Get out while you still can.

>>2113085
$10k on yuri? You must buy a lot of fringe material because I think I could buy every yuri tank ever printed with that much cash and where do you keep it all? I already have more yuri than what can comfortably fit in my floor to ceiling bookshelf

>>2113097
>You must buy a lot of fringe material
There are plenty of Kirara series and the like in there. Boxes. I'm running out of room.

>>2113085
You know, I think you exemplify why yuri genre as a whole is not quite profitable. Instead of many casual fans who spend little, yuri relies on few hardcore fans who spend big. If one of those hardcore fans stop buying yuri-related stuff for whatever reason, the impact is much bigger than if a casual fan did it.

>>2113257
>[citation needed]

>>2113267
Different anon, but this is how anime works in general. BDs, figures, and other goods have ridiculously inflated prices to combat the small population of fans.

>>2113686
Anime in general, not yuri in particular.

>>2113691
Yuri is the same way. Drama CDs and other media. The pool of fans is even smaller, hence why it's not as profitable.

I don't think anyone is relying on my spending. If they were, I don't think so many things I like would get cancelled.

>>2113097
d/a, but $10k can creep up on you just with the passage of time. I certainly don't buy everything but I've been gathering yuri for ~10 years and have easily averaged more than $1k per year.

>>2113731
iktf sis ;_;

Does Amazon.jp still require you give a physical Japanese address to make an account?

I got a shipping address when I tried signing up for tensi but haven't used it. Would that work?

>>2114540
>tensi
I mean tenso

>>2114541
Also has anyone used that site or know if it's reliable? I wanted to try them yo purchase items from Toranoana, but they want a photo ID. I'm going to try a different forwarding service for now.

>>2114550
Tenso is decent. A bit expensive if you aren't consolodating orders. I've never ran into any issues with them. Photo ID is used to verify the address that they are sending packages to.

If you are going to frequently order, I suggest making friends or asking family to ship stuff.

Well, finally got my Japan Kindle account set up.

Thinking about buying a light novel, but before I do, are those generally just a scan or is it in a format you can highlight and copy text? Because that's the main reason I wanted to do this, to be able to easily copy and look up words I don't know.

>>2114836
Never used a kindle device but on PC and Android versions it comes with a JP-English dictionary that can automatically look up things you highlight.

It's a bit pricey for what it is, but I figured I'd let you guys know.

What is Comike Web Catalog and how does one access it?

It's a system for finding and tracking the circles/booths you want to visit (can also provide quick access to the artist's twitter/pixiv/homepage if they provide that info): https://webcatalog.circle.ms

You have to create a free account before you can search and access info. Unfortunately I honestly can't recall how usable the free version is, I've used the paid version for years and it's a godsend. Only ~600y for a month, so cheaper than the paper catalog if you only subscribe for one month (you can pay with a foreign credit card).

It also retains your favourites from year-to-year (if you're paying, at least) which is ridiculously convenient.

>>2116839
I see, thanks for the info.

More info about that new series of Kuzushiro. I made the right choice by not buying it.

>>2116400
Are you getting this anon?

Do you also happen to know whats the pre-order bonus?

>>2123008
I wish more authors went the Mira/Morishima Akiko/Namori route and were physically incapable of drawing anything but cute lesbians.
The biggest thing that worries me about this is how Kuzushiro is allocating future drawing time to multiple new het series. The significantly reduced output of new yuri is a major disappointment.

Besides Murcielago v8 in a few days it looks like another slow upcoming month of relases. Kiss and White Lily v5 and Miss Sunflower v7 are the only things I'm going to get so far.

Anyone keeping up with 推しが武道館いってくれたら死ぬ? V2 is out soon and I am thinking of giving it a try.

I almost had a heart attack seeing 終電で帰さない、たった1つの方法 thinking it was a new Last Train/Hiragana Line series from Amagakure Gido. At least it looks like it might be good anyway.

>>2123186
Disappointed by Kuzushiro's three new not-yuri series as you.

Where do you check monthly releases? I check various sites but none of them have updated September's releases yet.

I'll still give a chance to Oshi but if nothing happens in volume 2 I'll probably drop it.
And I won't buy Murciélago 8, dropped with the 7th volume, too much "plot" I don't give a fuck about while the yuri is not nearly enough.

>>2123186
What's Amagakure Gido been up to, anyway? I've been buying fanbooks for a while but I'm starting to want to support some original yuri manga authors too, and she's probably my all-time favorite.

>>2124291
Amaama to Inazuma (甘々と稲妻) is the longest running and apparently just started its anime adaptation recently. Probably het themed since it has a male MC. And of course she also writes a lot of yaoi and no yuri like all the other talented authors who were kicked to the curb after the great yuri magazine purge.
