Seven Seas Entertainment has announced the acquisition of licenses for three new manga titles: I Like Cat Butts by Nanaon, Gilded Seven by Tasuku Karasuma, and the Boys’ Love manga Give Me a Hug, Mr. Frog! by Enhi. The publisher shared details about these upcoming releases as part of their recent “Wonderful Wednesdays” announcements, broadening their diverse catalog with comedy, historical action, and romance.
Dive into the Feline Fun of I Like Cat Butts
Seven Seas Entertainment is set to bring Nanaon’s quirky full-color comic, I Like Cat Butts, to English-speaking audiences.
About the Series
I Like Cat Butts is described as a “pawsitively hiss-terical” and “unhinged comedy” that follows a woman’s devoted, albeit peculiar, affection for her feline companion, with a particular focus on its posterior. The series offers a humorous look at the antics of a chaotic cat and its owner.
Release Information
Volume 1 of I Like Cat Butts is slated for release in September 2026. It will be available in single large-trim editions for $15.99 USA / $20.99 CAN, with ebook editions also available on digital platforms.
Unraveling the Mystery of Gilded Seven
Tasuku Karasuma, known for works like No Guns Life, brings a unique historical action manga with a supernatural twist in Gilded Seven, now licensed by Seven Seas.
About the Series
Gilded Seven takes readers on a journey to an “unknown timeline” where historical events diverge, such as Abraham Lincoln not dying. The series comes highly recommended by ONE, the creator of One-Punch Man, and features a wilder American West with the appearance of six dangerous members of “La Llorona.”
Release Information
The first volume of Gilded Seven is scheduled to be released in English in September 2026. It will be priced at $13.99 USA / $17.99 CAN and offered in single-volume editions, with digital versions also accessible.
Embrace the Adorableness of Give Me a Hug, Mr. Frog!
Enhi’s “toad-ally adorable” Boys’ Love (BL) manga, Give Me a Hug, Mr. Frog!, joins Seven Seas‘ growing BL catalog.
About the Series
Give Me a Hug, Mr. Frog! centers on Takanashi, a seemingly perfect student council president who secretly visits a frog-themed milk tea cafe. His hidden habit involves receiving a comforting hug from the cafe’s adorable frog mascot with every purchase. The story explores the developing relationship between two opposites as Takanashi becomes curious about the person inside the frog suit.
Release Information
Fans can look forward to the release of Give Me a Hug, Mr. Frog! in September 2026. It will be available as a single large-trim edition under the Seven Seas BL Label, priced at $15.99 USA / $20.99 CAN, with digital editions also planned.
