Yuri Sci-Fi Manga 'Qualia the Purple' Released in English a Decade After Its Original Release
On Tuesday, June 13, Seven Seas Entertainment released Qualia the Purple: The Complete Manga Collection in English digitally and in paperback. The manga is illustrated by Sirou Tsunasami, who also illustrated the original light novel by Hisamitsu Ueo.
The publisher describes the manga:
Through Yukari’s uncanny purple eyes, all people look just like robots. Her talent is both a blessing and a curse–she’s an asset to the police, with her “skill” allowing her to evaluate humans at a glance, but her strange sight has cost her the friendship of her peers. Luckily, she does have one friend in her corner: Hatou “Gaku” Manabu, a girl at school who cares deeply for Yukari. But when Yukari is recruited to join a secret organization, the real trouble begins. Gaku is thrust into a realm of mystery, quantum experimentation, and alternate universes, with only her wits–and her love for Yukari–to guide her along the way.
The original breakthrough Yuri science fiction series was originally serialized in Dengeki Daioh from 2011 to 2013. It is an adaptation of Hisamitsu Ueo's light novel of the same name, also published in English by Seven Seas. Kadokawa publishes the manga in three volumes in Japanese.
Qualia the Purple is translated into English by Daniel Komen, with adaptation by Carly Smith and letting by Arbash Mughal.
The series is notable for being one of the first Yuri stories to include hard science fiction concepts and elements. It is a precursor to modern sci-fi Yuri like Otherside Picnic and Last and First Idol. The series is highly reviewed and well-regarded for its characters and plot.

Cover for the February 2004 edition of the monthly shōnen magazine Dengeki Daioh featuring characters from Yotsuba to! drawn by Kiyohiko Azuma
Source for the cleaned up cover
unfortunately I wasn't able to find any better quality scans of the original magazine cover :( my theory is that since that cleaned up version was posted back in 2008, it has since been reposted endlessly on the internet until the original cover was forgotten
