Majotachi no Sabaa Vacation
Umineko Drop - also contains het, yaoi

Thank you to Shynaku for the proofreading.

Happy Thanksgiving to those in the US.

Let’s have some Umineko doujin!
I finally finished skimming through Ep. 5. Music is great as always.
I’m still quite mad at Bern an company but fortunately there is a new awesome person who is now my fave.
Seems like the anime finally introduced all the characters in Ep. 4.
Hmm…I thought Gaap would have a lighter voice.

Oh yah, and an idle question.
I use Japanese romanized titles for doujin filenames, but did people prefer English titles instead?
I normally put a translation of the title on the first page, but I suppose I can have the filename with the translated title too.
If there’s no objections, I’ll continue as is.

Majotachi no Sabaa Vacation - (魔女達のサバーバケーション)
by 434NotFound
19 pages

Spoilers for Ep. 4. The witches and furniture of Umineko run around some 4-koma.
Has Beato x Lia, Ange x Mammon, Beato x Gap.
Sorry, no Bern x Lambda.
The best thing is Beato-risu (risu = squirrel).
I think I’m missing some of the jokes though…

This circle also put out an ecchi Beato x Lia doujin with slight spoilers for Ep. 5 called Pupillary Disposition.
The art’s about the same but it was not bad for an ecchi so I might work on it after the game translation reaches Ep. 5.

Umineko Drop (うみねこドロップ)
by Ichigocha (苺茶)
27 pages.

Spoilers for Ep. 4. Contains het and yaoi.
A collaboration work that focuses on the witches of Umineko.
Not to be confused with Gokujou Drops.
I think the yuri bits were probably one of the funniest I’ve seen for Umineko.
The best part is “The Melancholy of Bern” by Sumomo.
I suppose it requires a bit of Higurashi knowledge to be be fully appreciated though.

And what is with all this unauthorized use of stuffed animals?
Even in the previous doujin, poor Sakutarou is being mistreated in a variety of manners. 0__0

Hyakunen Ningyou - Hundred Year Old Doll (百年人形)
by Asabuki Mari (朝吹 まり)
33 pages.

An extra chapter from the manga Badminton Girl.
I’ll categorize it under non-yuri, but the drawing style is quite nice.
Very shoujo. Then again, it did run in Ribon. =)
I’m sure many people know of the old Japanese legend where objects that live over 100 years acquire a life of their own.

The actual manga really has no yuri at all though I do like badminton.
It’s easier to swing the racket than in tennis.

The mirror ftp should be ok, but I gave SHA1 hashes in case people are worried.
Or you can just use the Mediafire links.

Ends in a cliffhanger but according to the author’s notes, itd be quite a while until Vol.2. :p
I do like extra postcard that was included.

Temp Download - Violence

This release is brought to you be Rena from Higurashi no Naku Koro ni cause there’s one scene at the beginning that reminds me of Onikakushi-hen.
show

That’s about the only part I liked cause well, I think the story gets a bit violent, and one the characters lost all coolness factor…

Temp Download - violence, guro

Flashback chapter.
You get to see Inumaru and the others at a previous day camp.
I can’t say I like the violent plot but it’s a bit interesting to see how their personalities have changed (or not).

Temp Download - non-yuri, guro

Thank you to Winterbraid for the TLcheck as usual.

Synopsis from the back cover:
A witch named Baba-yaga lives deep in the forest.
If you’re a good kid, she might save you on a whim.
If you’re a bad kid, she’ll devour you.

Change of pace.
Non-yuri but some personalities exhibit OCD and they’re all dysfunctional.
It’s not that bloody actually but more disturbing.
In truth, I only like the first chapter cause the coolness of one the characters rapidly declined after that.
Plus I like the art.

Anyways, if you Rabbit Doubt or Mushi to Medama to Teddy Bear you might like this.
As for Mushi to Medama, you gotta love someone that attacks with cutlery.

This pair does publish a story in Tsubomi called “Ebisu-san to Hotii-san” which has a pretty warped character too so perhaps you can consider this “yuri by association”?
