Seven Seas

Seven Seas continues to license manga and light novels across genres, with recent announcements covering BL, yuri, fantasy, horror, and light novel adaptations, with releases scheduled through 2027.

Synthesized from 3 Yomimono stories · updated Aug 28

Seven Seas announced three separate licensing slates in 2026, each spanning multiple genres and formats. The May batch added six titles, mixing established franchise extensions, a webcomic breakout, and two light novels. The August slate added seven manga, four of which adapt existing light novels, a strategy that lets the publisher cross-promote digital and print editions. The Anime NYC panel in late August added eight more, balancing BL and yuri with fantasy and comedy.

Across these announcements, the publisher continues to pull from multiple sources: original manga, light novel adaptations, webcomics, and franchise companions. Titles appear under imprints like the mature-rated BL label, the GL imprint, and the digital-only Airship imprint. Release windows cluster from January to July 2027, with print pricing around $13.99 to $16.99 in the US.

Several titles repeat across announcements, such as Wandmaker of the Ruined World and Goetia Shock, which first appear in the May license list and again in later batches. The publisher also pairs new works with existing series, as with Pendulum, a companion to Remnant: The Beastmen Omegaverse Saga.
