		<description><![CDATA[Question:
Why are Gundam fans so obsessed with First Gundam?

Do you think that yuri will become more popular than yaoi in America (especially with Media Blasters and Seven Seas releasing it)?

Answer:
Given your question, I&#8217;ll presume that you know that &#8220;yuri&#8221; is the Japanese term for manga and anime dealing with female homosexuality, and &#8220;yaoi&#8221; is the term for the literary theme of male homosexuality. [...]]]></description>
