Hot damn, I've been curious about this title after peeking through this first chapter sample.

Man, 2017 and beyond is really going to be yuri manga-filled age, huh. Cool

Nice to see that Legend of The Galactic Heroes is going to continue for the foreseeable future and at least volume six.

Woo, and I just picked up the first three novels too. Honestly they're the first vaguely anime-related books I've ever purchased, but Yoshiki Tanaka is a very easy sell. Now to wait for Sentai to get rolling on its releases and make my wallet cry. Very Happy

After Hours is pretty good (even though I'm not into clubbing). Nice to see it licensed. A lot of yuri has been licensed lately. Not that I complain! I'm delighted!

My wallet can't possibly take any more of this yuri goodness! But please, publishers, don't stop!!! It's so good to see various publishers jumping on the yuri boat- the sign of a healthy market. Good job yuri fans!!!

Yay for more yuri!

Will also be picking up the LOGH novels now that Viz has committed to publishing more volumes.

This pleases me. It's great that so much yuri manga is coming next year but it's not so great for my wallet. Laughing

Yes. Love this. It's a yuri manga and looks into Japan's club scene.

In a way, it is merely matching the times. My daughter, who is bi, has more friends who are NOT straight, of both genders, or neither, than she does that are. Of course, she attends a boarding school and it might be that kids who choose to go to a boarding school and it might be the case that more kids who choose to leave home to go to boarding school do so because they have problems fitting in at home because of such problems... (That wasn't why my daughter went. It is also a school for students gifted in math an science...) But she knew quite a few at her school at home before she left as well. I think there is a major increase in alternative lifestyles, or people admitting to them openly at least. Perhaps we are seeing manga lead the way in art imitating life?

In any case, I have read some chapters of this and I LOVE IT! I can't wait to read the official translation and be able to support the creator!

If you believe some of these manga, all girls' schools are just stuffed to the gills with lesbians. Odds are a good number will level out into normal adults rather than continue their student lifestyles(prisons prove this effect is a thing, though how strong it is elsewhere with long-running single-sex compositions is obviously something else altogether).
