Recs: Top 5 Yuri Manga

Got asked for yuri recs on Tumblr, and, wouldn't you know, it's

halfamoon season. Good timing.

I went for series where the yuri is a main focus of the story (so, not Sailor Moon), where the f/f attraction is explicit and unambiguous (so, not Madoka Magica), and where said attraction is more than one-sided (so, not Tokyo Mew Mew or Cardcaptor Sakura).

These aren’t in order by most- to least-favorite or anything, just my top 5 overall….

Relationships Between Women, then and now

For Vividcon in 2007, I VJed a show called Relationships Between Women... and last year at Vividcon I joked that if only I'd waited until 2009, I could have more than doubled the available pool of fantastic vids to choose from for this theme. So, I thought it would be fun to post the playlist from the actual show with my comments about why I chose what I did then, followed by a playlist for a virtual encore vidshow, or Relationships Between Women 2009 (if I had to do it again now). In both cases, the vids all focus on relationships between women. I tried to include as wide an emotional range and variety of relationships as possible, and the women in these vids are friends, lovers, rivals, sisters, enemies, partners, alter egos, or all of the above.
