Snatches of YuriCANAAN, Volume 2 from Kadokawa Comics has been out for a while, but since I just started rewatching the anime, it's in my head. So why not check that out?
Daremo ienai looks really interesting. It's being published by Hakusensha and the Amazon package deal is with Rakuen le Paradis, so I'm guessing it skews towards an older female audience.
Himitsu, by Otomo Megane is subtitled "Secret Love" and the cover features two girls holding hands. This is a KR comic and with all those things I project that it is /drum roll/ Story A. When it hits the shelves next month we'll know for sure. (YNN Correspondent Erin S. confirms that this is a collection of Otomo's stories from Tsubomi anthology, so I feel even more confident that they are Story A. ^_^)
From bottom-feeding Champion Red comes Minori Scandal. The first line of the first review on Amazon JP reads "I love Yuri hentai!" and the cover shows a girl - I assume it's Minori - looking "sexy" for our bottom-feeding pleasure. I'm done with it, but if you decide to throw money at it, feel free to write a guest review!
I'm sure that, somewhere, someone likes Gokujouu, but that someone wasn't me. It's made it to Volume 3, more's the pity.
Densho is said to be very, very, Yuri by people I almost always disagree with. ^_^ I have absolutely no idea what it's about and am adding it to the report to be as comprehensive as possible.

Yuri Manga

Yuri Hime Wildrose is undergoing a name change. From now on it will be known as Yuri Hime Girl's Love. It remains to be seen if the content undergoes any change.

Maria-sama ga Miteru News
Take a deep breath. According to Shueisha's release list, a new Maria-sama ga Miteru novel will be out on December 28! I've been enjoying the O-shaka-sama ga Miteru series, (with the exception of the odious Andre-sempai) but I'll be thrilled to return to Lillian for a bit. As I have not been reading Cobalt Shueisha, I can't tell you when the stories are, if they include any of "our" Yamayurikai or what. Maybe someone else can help us out on that end.

Yuri Anime
You may remember the manga I mentioned last week, A Channel. It's being turned into an anime. The official anime website has announced the staff and the names are familiar to many Yuri fans. Folks that worked on Strawberry Panic, Saki and Strike Witches are gathering together to work on this moe 4-koma to anime.

That's a wrap for this week.
