Fandom updates and such. Important words bolded.

Sukisho has been licensed by Media Blasters recently so I figured I'd give you all the heads up if you hadn't heard already.

Also, Yellow and Antique Bakery premiered at ComicCon this weekend (and according to the newsletter they were showcased next to Seth Green who was a guest at the next booth - I haven't gotten any word back on what the reaction was). Yellow is BL manga with an 18+ age rating and Antique Bakery is being referred to as a "yaoi cousin", as it is supposed to have or hint at BL-type relationships but is not in DMP's yaoi line - it is 13+.

I'm not sure if I mentioned this before but DMP is planning to release a yuri manga line as well as a BL anthology magazine. This was mentioned back at AnimeExpo and I have not heard any details.

Also, with the recent release of the 6th Harry Potter book I would like to ask that any newer fics mentioning events of the 6th book please be kept under a cut with a spoiler warning or on a link with a spoiler warning beforehand. Thanks,
BoM

There isn't enough yuri in the US...

Indeed. I'm happy that a company is finally starting to pay attention to the trend. After all, BL business is booming - why shouldn't yuri be the same? (especially since yuri has less stigma surrounding it)

Really. Especially with all of the guys around the US who are all like, "OH HELL YEAH BOOBIES."

Haha, indeed. It's much easier for guys to be interested in media with lesbians than it is for girls to be the same but with gay guys. Of course girls seem to get less odd looks if they're into yuri than guys do if they're into BL so it evens out.

Hmm, don't have much to say on that other than Amber was very happy when Harry became "obsessed with Draco." I needed to stop for a moment after I read that to just... enjoy.

Re: sorry this isn't on topic...

XD Yes, I sent your letter to India. I expect it amused your host family to see it before you arrived.
Will do @ e-mail.

It's because I use xanga. Geez, what a traitor,I know. I'd ask to join the slash club (again), but I fear I won't have any time at all once I'm in India for leisure.
