Plica-chan is the bittersweet, realistic story of Plica, a young lesbian looking for love in modern Japan.

The manga, which is written in 4-panel strip style, originally ran in Anise magazine, and now runs in the LOUD News, the newsletter for the LOUD organization. It can also be found online. Plica's comments are often on the nature of sexuality, the relationships between men and women, and between women and women.

The whole strip starts on a low note, as Plica returns from an ex-lover's wedding. But not too long into it, Plica meets Mari, for whom she starts to have feelings pretty soon.

Utahime Fight is a collection of three short stories, all of which are about magical, mysteriously attractive girls and they effect they have on the people around them. 

In the first story, a girl and her two friends (one male, one female) are really magical fighters for something - probably love and justice. 

The second story follows two girls who are magically drawn into the plot of a movie, in which a prince strives to save his mother and his land. After being threatened with their lives, they wake up in the library in school. They have a final scene in which they admit that they love each other and story ends.  

The third story is about a magical creature that enchants a young man and brings love into his life. (description from http://okazu.blogspot.com/2005/03/obscure-yuri-manga_23.html)

Junpaku no Toiki

純白の吐息

Shimizu, Yuki

Mistaken identities, bizarre accidents and pratfalls, tragic pasts and plenty of broken hearts, and that is just for starters! Love Mode tells the story of the lives of the men involved with the classy male escort service, Blue Boy. Love lines intertwine and cross, friendships are made and broken in this boy's love classic!

Sakashita Izumi, your typical straight high school student, gets into a sticky situation with a gay translator, Takamiya Katsura, when he gets mistaken for Izumi - an escort from B&amp;B (Blue Boy)! The two go on a date, Takamiya goes all the way with the young Izumi, and now the older man's in love with him. Tiny Problem: Izumi is slightly homophobe. Will he eventually convert in that which he fears?

Reiji, owner of B&amp;B and other sleazy clubs (and seemingly not gay) finds out his girlfriend had been cheating on him - just after dumping her. He bumps into a young, family-less, money-less, trustless high school named Naoya who at that moment gets knocked out by a pot that Reiji's vengeful ex-lover drops on his head. Reiji accompanies the young boy, feeling bad that this is partly his doing, only to find that now Naoya is homeless since his apartment burned down and finally ends up taking in this "stray cat".

Love Mode

ラブモード

Koide, Mieko

Akizuki, Koh

Fujimoto Hiroya is at the top of his class. He's the Student Council Vice-President, spends all his time studying and is the idol of all the "good girls".  But the truth is, he'd trade it all just for the chance to be someone else... someone popular, outgoing and carefree... Someone like Masaki.

Masaki's what Fujimoto's friends would call an "idiot".  He'd rather play soccer than study, almost never cracks a book, and is popular with all the "normal" kids.  He's got flashy clothes, bleached hair and a reputation just a lousy as Fujimoto's is good.

In the summer of Fujimoto's freshman year of high school, he resolves to change his image and his life... all to make friends with Masaki.  But can dyed hair, new clothes and a piercing really change a person inside? 

Classic BL by the "dream-team" of novelist Koh Akizuki and mangaka Meiko Koide. 

Please note that this title deals very frankly with some rather "heavy" issues including, but not limited to homophobia, gay bashing, coming out, HIV/AIDS, promiscuous sex, rape, and suicide.
