Hey ho! (^_^)/

Go and buy this one:
https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/3842030525/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3JWKAKR8XB7XF
It's really good! ;)

Yes, they do. In Poland we have "Flower and the Star," "Girl Friends," "Iono the Fanatics," and "Sweet Guilty Love Bites." But, after 3 months of delay maybe they will finally release the first volume of "Kisses, Sighs, and Cherry-Blossom Pink". And "Kimi Koi Limit" is scheduled for November.

Only certain specialty stores carry manga here in the US, and the only yuri I've ever found is super popular stuff like Citrus and Girlfriends

We have even the First Volumen of kase chan I bought it yesterday

The best yuri titles here in Germany aside from Kase-san are:

Kisses, Sighs and Cherry-Blossom Pink (German title: Cherry Lips)
Hanjuku Joshi (German title: Highschool Girls)
and the newest one:
Momono Motos My Ignorance of a yet unknown World (German title: Der Zauber einer mir unbekannten Welt)

We do get some of the good stuff luckily. But in my opinion... it could be much more (^_-)v

We don't get manga here, like half of south America would get it from Mexico, Argentina or directly from amazon NA

Haven't seen any around here in Brazil but i don't look for manga very often
A quick google search does say there's none here though, so yay

Depending on your take Chirality is also a yuri manga. That being said it is really barren here. Except for Chirality, all of those titles were released in past 2-3 years. Sadly yuri isn't really popular here and most fans prefer yaoi hence it is published here much longer and has already at least 20 titles. Also I knew about Kisses (pre-ordered it cos I got fed up with checking bookstore regularly, since they are taking their time with it), but didn't hear about Kimi (since Otaku is taking their time with new issue too as usually).

Newpop said they licensed 5 yuri titles. They didn't revealed which ones. And they said they won't announce new titles while the ones they already announced aren't done.

So yeah, maybe 2018....

That shouldn't be a problem... Well, I understand it depends on the family but anyone should be able to keep some privacy in their rooms and life, even from parents.
I have 2 anime figures, one is black rock shooter ... Looks pretty cool, and the other is a Queen's Blade figure of an almost naked girl, the reaction of my mother was "hmmmm ... wow how much did you spend on this?" I didn't want to hide them.
When it comes to yuri and yaoi stuff is more complicated but is just manga

@Nevri and h3x, where exactly do you get those from? The only idea I have are the Empik shops, anime conventions and local manga shops (only one in my city, none nearby..)

I mainly get them from Empik. I know only about 1 small bookstore that sells them so I buy them here when I want something older or when I missed it (it has permanent 10% on them so I should always buy it there, but it's location is less convenient). There are probably other places I don't know about and in general you should be able to order them in any good bookstore. Alternatively buying them online sounds like good option. Since JPF is close to me, we have a sushi bar here which sells most/all JPF mangas with permanent discount so I usually try to grab theirs there.

While there certainly is yuri manga here in America, I haven't seen it anywhere. My local library has a decently sized manga collection, but I haven't seen any yuri there... where art thou, yuri manga! Granted, even if I could find it, I wouldn't have the money to buy it, but it's still nice knowing it's nearby.

The Philippines get the same titles as the US although only one bookstore (Fully Booked) stocks them.

EDIT: It's not manga but we also have World Canvas and a new short comic called Drift from Black Ink Comics.

Supposedly the first yuri manga (girlfriends) in Mexico will be published this year but it was announced back in March and nothing more has been said since.

Aside of that, we can get any manga published in the states so there's that.

I guess i can order many yuri manga from Thailand.

@Serenata
My mom would question me about the contents not the money. Also, everyone in my family know clearly what manga is, so we wouldn't think that "it's just manga".

Australia sounds about the same, there's amazon and there's one shop i know of in the state I live for a good range of manga and they don't mind ordering in series of interest... but I've read most stories 100 times. It's been really too good with all the webtoon's coming out in the last few years XD

You'll probs have a better chance with bookstores rather than public libraries.
That said, bookstores dont stock up in everything, usually what sells, and the one we have downtown (a big, chain store one) has a least a copy or two of Strawberry Panic, both volumes of GFriends, the Kisses and Sighs anthology, Gakuen Polizi, Akuma no Riddle, Citrus (which gets like 15 copies when a volume is first released), and idr what else but there's like 7 copies of NTR Trap rn
I think that whatever the US gets, Canada gets too in terms of distribution
Tho its harder in french, the french chain bookstores do stock up in french manga, but they dont seem to care for french yuri much, they dont stock it at all, in stores or online. The option to order them is available, but they legit dont stock them, itll be directly shipped from the publisher/France and take like 8 weeks

We don't have any yuri in our language(s) in Finland, but we do have all of the yuri licensed in English, or at least they're sold at a store chain specialising in manga, Warhammer, RPGs and board games.

I don't mind not having yuri in Finnish, though, since I read everything in English anyway.
