Yuricon Named one of Animefringe.com's Top 25 Websites
Yuricon.org, a website dedicated to celebrating, creating
and disseminating information about lesbians in Japanese
animation and comics is making a splash on the Internet.
Founded in 2000 with the mission of drawing yuri fans around the world
together, Yuricon held a three-day convention in Newark, NJ in
2003. 2003 also saw the creation of a publishing arm, ALC Publishing,
to translate and create high-quality Japanese comics with lesbian
content.
In the first week of 2004, Yuricon.org was named one of the Top 25
anime-related websites by the Animefringe.com organization, determined
by user poll. Yuricon has the honor of being the first and only
convention-related website to ever be so named.
Yuricon is planning a variety of events in 2004 at anime conventions
and film festivals, as well as book-release parties, and a
mini-convention and tour in Tokyo 2005. 2004 will also see the release
of three new original yuri publications from ALC Publishing.

Yuricon - "For real women who like their women...animated."
