Here are the details for Seven Seas’ newest licenses: 

Manga 

Seduced by the Demon King: A Sensual Rebirth

Story and Art: FOXIES

The first volume of the mature-rated manga series will be released for the first time in the English print in April 2025, with the series available in single large-trim editions as part of Seven Seas’ Steamship imprint. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.

Synopsis: 

Haruka’s life has hit a dead end — her career is stalled, and her love life is nonexistent. But everything changes when a shooting star crashes at her feet, revealing a sinfully handsome man who claims to be the Demon King. Even more shocking, he insists Haruka was once his sworn enemy, a saint, in a past life. Though she has no memory of their shared history, he seems to know everything about her.

Bent on revenge, the Demon King vows to take Haruka on a journey of exquisite ecstasy, only to plunge her into the depths of despair. His motives may be dark, but the offer of passion and adventure is far more enticing than her mundane reality. Is she ready to embrace the pleasure — and the peril —that comes with surrendering to a demon’s touch?

My Younger Knight Takes Care of Me in Another World

Story and Art: Nekonomori Shima

The first volume of the Boys’ Love isekai manga series will be released for the first time in the English language in May 2025, with the series available in single volume editions as part of the Seven Seas BL Label. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.

Synopsis: 

Mitsuki is an ordinary thirty-something office worker leading a monotonous 9-to-5 life. His hum-drum routine is suddenly shattered when he tries to help a girl in distress, only to be unexpectedly transported to a different world. While the girl is meant to be there, Mitsuki is out of place, and nobody knows what to do with him. Fortunately, Volk, a striking and noble knight, takes it upon himself to care for Mitsuki – even gently tending to him after he’s rendered unconscious from an injury. But when Mitsuki comes to, it’s not Volk next to him but a large black wolf! Just who–or what – is Volk and how is Mitsuki expected to survive in this unfamiliar world?

Wolf’s Daughter: A Werewolf’s Tale

Story and Art: Yuki Kodama

The first volume of the coming-of-age josei manga will be printed for the first time in English in June 2025, with the series available in single volume editions. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.

Synopsis: 

Tsukina is an average high school girl with a supernatural secret—one that even she is unaware of. After an encounter with a man named Hayate, Tsukina begins to realize she’s not entirely human. Her great athletic ability, her enhanced sight at night, even the reason she craves raw meat, all comes down to one answer: She’s a werewolf. But every answer leads her to more questions. Who is she really? What does any of this mean? Just where will Tsukina’s journey of self discovery lead her?

Sensei’s Mail-Order Food: The Complete BL Manga Collection

Story: Yuuri Eda

Art: Asumiko Nakamura

The manga will be released for the first time in English in June 2025 and will be available in a single large-trim edition as part of the Seven Seas BL Label. An ebook edition will also be available on digital platforms.

The manga inspired a live-action TV drama series and includes reviews of real gourmet food items from Japan. 

Synopsis: 

When erotic novelist Enomura Haruka and shojo artist Nakata Miruku are brought together by their publisher to collaborate on a new manga, it seems like a perfect match — until the two meet in person and realize just how different they are! Haruka is a bit of a sadist with a cool-guy personality, and he immediately clashes with Miruku, who’s something of a masochist and doesn’t match his bright shojo style at all. 

There’s one thing the two have in common, however — their love of gourmet food, especially the mail-order variety. Can their passion for amazing food bridge the gap between them? Or could food be the catalyst that causes their passions to boil over? 

Bastard (Manhwa Webtoon)

Story: Carnby Kim

Art: Youngchan Hwang

The first volume of the manhwa webtoon series will be printed for the first time in English in May 2025, with the full-color series available in large-trim paperback editions as part of the Seven Seas Webtoon label.

Synopsis: 

High school life is hard enough, but it’s even harder for Seon Jin. A sickly disabled boy, Jin might as well be invisible. No one ever pays attention to him, except for the bullies who prey on him for being weak. Jin, however, keeps a very dark secret — there’s a serial killer in his house…and it’s his father!

Full of unexpected twists and shocking reveals, this hit psychological thriller snatched the top spot as the most-read webtoon only a few months after its release.
