Narration: Derek Prince
Release Date: April 16, 2026
“The fan-favorite Boys’ Love light novel about the secret lives of men who work in television that inspired the anime film—manga also from Seven Seas!”
Kunieda Kei is the up-and-coming Prince Charming of the evening news. Inside, he’s the opposite: brash, hot-tempered, and prickly as can be. For years, Kei has successfully juggled his private and professional personas–until a chance meeting with a stop motion animator threatens to bring it all crashing down. But is that really as frightening as the possibility that someone might love and accept both sides of who he is?
Yes, No, or Maybe? (Audiobook) Vol. 1 will be released for the first time in the English language on April 16, 2026. Pre-orders available now at sevenseasaudiobooks.com.

As the youngest son of a revered warrior clan, Albert Falconer is shouldering a lot of pressure. But all his battlefield experience can’t prepare him for the sudden revelation he experiences at the tender age of fourteen. In a past life, Albert realizes, he lived in a different world completely. In that world, the Falconers and their society were part of a video game—one Albert remembers just well enough to know that he was a far cry from a main character! Albert begins his studies at the Radford Royal Academy of Magic with that past life in the back of his mind. But it’s soon crystal-clear that, despite what he remembers, he’s not going to end up some minor, lackluster NPC. Albert Falconer’s life is on a more exciting course!
