It’s Wednesday, so you know what that means! Manga/manhwa/manhua and light novel publisher SEVEN SEAS ENTERTAINMENT, as part of their WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY tradition, announced new licenses for three brand-new manga series. Let’s get right into it!
MARRIAGE TO KITSUNE-SAMA (debuts June 2024)
First up for us today is MARRIAGE TO KITSUNE-SAMA, a supernatural slice-of-life BL rom-com by the creative team, Ken Homerun.
“Every few decades, the town of Hokutochou sends a human up the mountain to marry one of the fox spirits who reside above them–and Inaho has always longed for that role. When he comes of age, he ascends to his new home and meets his handsome new husband: a kitsune lord named Subaru. Subaru has been watching Inaho for a long time and is pleased to receive his new spouse. But before this supernatural marriage can enter its honeymoon stage, Inaho learns that Subaru is stuck with an unfortunate curse. This fox spirit wants to eat up his beloved: literally! Can Inaho and Subaru find a way to break the curse and save their relationship?”
Marriage To Kitsune-sama is set to release in June 2024 in a single large trim format under the Seven Seas BL Imprint. Pricing is set at $14.99 USD & $18.99 CAD. They also revealed Marriage To Kitsuna-sama will also be available digitally as an ebook on select platforms.
RE-LIVING MY LIFE WITH A BOYFRIEND WHO DOESN’T REMEMBER ME (debuts July 2024)
Next up Seven Seas announced that the manga adaptation of critically acclaimed time-loop drama series RE-LIVING MY LIFE WITH A BOYFRIEND WHO DOESN’T REMEMBER ME was also licensed. This adaptation is based on the popular novel Return from Death: I Kicked the Bucket and Now I’m Back at Square One With a Boyfriend Who Doesn’t Remember Me!
“Oriana, a seventeen-year-old magic student, suddenly dies alongside her boyfriend, Vincent. However, she returns from death in the body of her seven-year-old self with the memories of her past life intact–except for the knowledge of what killed her. She fantasizes for years about reuniting with her beloved, but when they finally meet, Vincent doesn’t remember her! Can she make Vincent fall in love with her again and avoid the death that started this mysterious time loop?”
Re-Living My Life With A Boyfriend Who Doesn’t Remember Me is set to release in July 2024 in single large trim editions. Pricing is set at $14.99 USD & $18.99 CAD. They also revealed the series will be available digitally as an ebook on select platforms.
MONSTER CATS (debuts May 2024)
Finally, Seven Seas announced that MONSTER CATS, a full-color manga series about humans living with monstrous cats was also licensed. The series was created by PANDANIA, the creator of YOKAI CATS and THE EVIL SECRET SOCIETY OF CATS, also published in English by Seven Seas.
“Is it a banshee, a yeti, a gorgon, or…a cat? Monster Cats are a purrfect new breed of familiar furry friends crossed with freaky fun! If you think life with regular cats can get complicated, wait till you see what it’s like for people who live with these charming supernatural pets.”
Monster Cats is set to release in May 2024 in single large trim editions. Pricing is set at $14.99 USD & $18.99 CAD. Monster Cats will also be available digitally in ebook editions on select digital platforms.
But wait, there’s more?!
Normally this is where Seven Seas would be done with their announcements for the day, but instead, they decided to cryptically hint at yet another announcement later this week. I wonder what it could be…
We have more exciting news coming later this week! See you again very soon~
