Sweet Blue Flowers (Aoi Hana) by Takako Shimura
Someone posted about one of Shimura's other series, Hourou Musuko (Transient Son or Wandering Son), a few months ago. Sweet Blue Flowers starts off with an older crowd. On the surface, it may look like just another "childhood friends are reunited" story, but it's so much more. It's about sexuality and friendship and crushes and growing up. It has subtlety and realism.

The Yuriness of Anita King and Hisami Hisaishi redux, pt 1 of 2
I posted these scans this time last year, on the old S_D...I figured I might as well repost them again, rather than have them lost...lost to time. *cries* Besides, I posted them for International Day of Femslash, and it's the second one, so, hey.
I'm a big fan of Hideyuki Kurata and Ran Ayanaga's Read or Dream manga, the follow-up to Read or Die - it is, in fact, my favourite manga currently commercially available in English, and in the running for my favourite ever. The entire RoD series - Die, Dream, and ROD the TV (loosely based on Dream) - is pretty full of yuri moments... For Dream/the TV, that mostly focusses on Anita...primarily her relationship with Hisami Hisaishi.
Which...is the focus of these two posts.
In reference to the rules changes since then, this post, and the second one, are a total of 28 or 29 pages (it's hard to add up the partial pages) taken from throughout volume 4 of the series, which is about 220 pages.

An unusual lesbian manga: Honey & Honey
Takeuchi Sachiko's Honey & Honey is an autobiographical manga. Though some of it is educational (intended to show people what Sachiko's life is like as a sexual minority in Japan, and clear up misconceptions), it's mostly funny stories about Sachiko and her friends.
The art is not for everyone, but I think it's cute and suits the style of the story. If you like Plica, you'll probably like this too.

s_d is dead, long live s_d!
In honour of the return of s_d (even if it's not to lj), I...well, I'm gonna repost the last thing I posted on the old one. If it was good enough for LJ, it's good enough for IJ, says I!
I bring you (once again) 5 of the first 6 pages of Kurogane Pukapuka Tai. (They're a little on the large side, but not dial-up breaking.)
Manga, right to left, and all that jazz.
( Read more... )
