You can buy a copy of the magazine when it's out, if that is what your mean.

By the way, Yuri Hime is not the only yuri magazine, there's also Yuri Shimai.

Yuri Shimai (published by Sun Magazine) is defunct. Yuri Hime (published by Ichijinsha) is continuing most of the stories that ran in the five issues of Yuri Shimai.

At the moment, the only currently running all-yuri magazine in Japanese is Yuri Hime, and in English, Yuri Monogatari, by ALC Publishing.

You can purchase Yuri Hime (and Yuri Shimai back issues) from Amazon Japan through the Yuricon Shop http://www.yuricon.org/shop/manga.html#YH[/quote]

Not in the incestuous sense, btw. The editor of the magazine mentioned, at the Tokyo event that it was meant to reflect the Maria-sama ga Miteru sense of the word "sister" - the sempai/kouhai relationship.

For plenty more conversation about these things, feel free to join us on the Yuricon Mailing List - http://groups.yahoo.com/groups/Yuricon

I didn't know there was an English Yuri magazine. And when you say it's a yuri magazine, do you mean shoujo-ai or hardcore yuri?

How/Where can I purchase Yuri Monogatari? Can I use the above link?

It's an anthology, with stories that run the gamut.
(Shoujoai doesn't mean romance with no sex. It has no meaning at all in Japanese. It's a word created by an American fan.) At Yuricon, we use the word yuri to define all representations of f/f realtionships, including love, romance and sex.

Because some of the stories do have adult content, Yuri Monogatari is only available to folks who are 18 or older.

You can find it at http://www.yuricon.org/shop/manga.html#ALC, along with our translated manga and our newest publication, Shoujoai ni Bouken, a yuri novel.

Ah, well, thank you for the clarification.
