Manga Up! Global has officially added Coma Hashii’s manga adaptation of Yuuri Seo’s novel series, The Saintess Recruited a Doting King Husband (original Japanese title: Seijo ga “Amayakashite Kureru Yasashii Danna-sama” o Boshū Shitara Kokuō Heika ga Rikkōho Shitekita), to its English-language lineup. The announcement was made on Thursday, July 10, 2025.
About the Series
The manga is based on Yuuri Seo’s web novel series, which originally launched in 2022. It tells the story of Stacy, a powerful saintess who has risen to the top of the church. However, in a male-dominated society, her cruel father sees her only as a tool for political marriage.
Plot Summary
Tired of being used as a pawn, Stacy devises a plan to remain single: she creates a list of eight unreasonable, non-negotiable, and self-indulgent conditions for any potential husband, believing that no one could possibly meet them. Her plan takes an unexpected turn when the King himself steps forward, claiming to fulfill every requirement on her list, transforming what began as a half-serious checklist for a “perfect husband” into a royal engagement.
Availability on Manga Up! Global
The series is now available to read on the Manga Up! Global platform. Manga Up! is a digital manga service owned by Square Enix, which originally launched in Japan in January 2017 and expanded internationally with an English-language version in July 2022.
