I still buy some physicl manga. I do perfer it, but have no room to store it and there is so much. I am mainly finishing series I started before I went to emanga. Photo of this summers physical purchases, include She is So Cheeky For a Commoner and the next volume of My Job is Yuri, as well as two volumes of Whisper me a Love Song.
While it was supposed to be delivered yesterday, but I was at work, so I have to pick it up. I think I ordered these figures in July and somehow, they weren't available for preorder on CDJapan for some reason.
I think WataYuri are the only yuri series that received a scale figure. Actually, 6 in fact.
Un nouveau #yuri à la maison avec #Yurigoto 1 et 2. Premiers mangas chez #Meian , on va voir ce que donne la traduction, j'étais pas convaincu par celles de titres que j'ai feuilletés chez eux, mais bon j'ai trouvé la trad du LN de #konosuba plutôt correcte donc on y croit !
@Xalofar je sais pas d'où je sors ce titre raccourci 😂 Je suis sûr de l'avoir lu quelque part mais où... Ou alors c'est une production de mon esprit.
Bref oui, c'est #watayuri qui a l'air d'usage, merci pour la rectification ;)
@Xalofar la VF est très correcte. Pas de syntaxe fantasque, pas de faute de français. Le côté "ma grande soeur"/"ma petite soeur" sonne étrange à l'oreille en français, mais dans le contexte, difficile de s'en passer. En plus, le papier est de plutôt bonne qualité et les pages couleurs sont conservées, je suis donc plutôt satisfait. #Watayuri
Manga Review: Yuri is My Job vol. 11 (WataYuri)
私の百合はお仕事です!

I couldn’t wait and boy, I am glad I didn’t. Vol. 11 is delightfully messed up. We learn more about Goeidou-san’s backstory. Man, she is a piece of work! We learn what Kanoko-chan is scheming. Poor Kanoko-chan. I don’t think I’ve read a yuri where the ships are more complicated. I still don’t know how they will finally resolve. The math just doesn’t work out (Unless we do poly math, which is too much to expect.)
I want volume 12 NOW. Will I be able to resist buying the EManga. And I really want Geoidou-san to get what she deserves.

I am enjoying the manga. The name put me off for a while, but I am glad I started it.
WataYuri can be read as a mild parody of S-type yuri or light-hearted yuri. A grounding in S-type yuri such as "Maria-sama ga Miteru" is needed for a full enjoyment of the series, but is not required. WataYuri stands up well on its own.
The setting of an RP café is well thought out, providing plenty of scope for the dual parody/serious dynamic. The characters are engaging, with enough “types” so everyone can find a character to fall in love with. I especially like “Chibana Sumika” the cool senpai/gyaru. The plot is nicely done, so you are unsure how things will work out. As of volume ten, I “think” I know how the final ships will work out. I could be wrong. There’s enough suspense and loose ends, I can’t be sure.
It is real yuri? Absolutely, S-type, parody, romance, unrequited love, triangles, jealousy, and even a fade-to-black sex scene in volume ten. (Don’t worry, our maids remain pure.)
The anime is true to the manga, though lacking some of the depth, so if you like the anime you will like the manga.
I look forward to each new volume and enjoy re-reading prior volumes to remind myself of what is going on. Volume eleven is at the top of my reading list for my next camping trip. What more can you ask for?
I still buy some physical manga. Chiefly things I started in physical or things I really love. (Otherside Picnic and Inori-sensei (I'm in love with the Villainess etc.)) Just got my mid-summer shipment. All yuri of course.
I buy from an independent bookstore (So should you!) Mine is Powell Books. Just be careful if it's online it's not a front for Amazon they are actually behind a lot of what appear to be independent venders.
