    Monster Guild: The Dark Lord’s (No-Good) Comeback!

  • It’s hard to defeat a mighty hero when he keeps coming back to life--in fact, it’s impossible. The Dark Lord, stuck in a loop of battling a good guy who won’t stay dead, finally loses the fight and meets his own end...or so it would seem. The Dark Lord saved himself by putting his soul into an empty vessel, and now he’s about to stage his own comeback. He may be weak now, but along with his newly formed fellowship of misfits--a slime, an orc, an ifrit, and a dark elf--he’s convinced he can rebuild his evil empire, one bumbling step at a time.
  • Seven Seas will publish the manga series Monster Guild: The Dark Lord’s (No-Good) Comeback! for the first time in North America in print and on digital platforms in single volume editions. Volume 1 will be released in September 2021 for $12.99 USA / $16.99 CAN.

  • Skip and Loafer by Misaki Takamatsu, the critically acclaimed romantic comedy about a country girl chasing her dreams in Tokyo, will also join Seven Seas' large manga library!

    Skip and Loafer

  • Excellent student Iwakura Mitsumi has always dreamt about leaving her small town, going to a prestigious university, and making positive change in the world. But she’s so focused on reaching her goals that she’s not prepared for the very different (and overwhelming) city life that awaits her in a Tokyo high school. Luckily, she makes fast friends with Shima Sousuke, a handsome classmate who’s as laid-back as she is over-prepared. Can this naive country girl make it big in Tokyo with Sousuke by her side? This charming manga was nominated for the 2020 Manga Taisho Award and is sure to skip its way into your heart.
  • Seven Seas will publish the manga series Skip and Loafer for the first time in North America in print and on digital platforms in single volume editions. Volume 1 will be released in August 2021 for $12.99 USA / $16.99 CAN.
