New Seven Seas Licenses

[duckprintspress]

Looks like no one has posted about this here yet, so I'll jump on it! Seven Seas announced ELEVEN new danmei licenses yesterday:

• After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine (Canji Zhanshen Jia Wo Wei Qie Hou) by Liu Gou Hua
• Astrolabe Rebirth (Xing Pan Chongqi) by Fei Tian Ye Xiang, written under the pen name Arise Zhang
• Copper Coins (Tong Qian Kan Shi) by Mu Su Li
• Mistakenly Saving the Villain (Lun Jiu Cuo Fanpai de Xiachang) by Feng Yu Nie
• My Husband and I Sleep in a Coffin (Wo he Laogong Shui Guancai) by Wu Shui Bu Du
• There’s Something Wrong with the Chief (Du Zhu You Bing) by Yang Su
• Thrice Married to Salted Fish (San Jia Xianyu) by Bi Ka Bi
• The Villain’s White Halo (Fanpai Baihua Guanghuan) by Hao Da Yi Juan Wei Sheng Zhi
• The Unseen Immortal of Three Hundred Years (Bujian Shang Xian San Bai Nian) by Mu Su Li
• The White Cat’s Divine Scratching Post (Shenmu Nao Bujin) by Lv Ye Qian He
• The Wife Comes First (Qi Wei Shang) by Lv Ye Qian He

(links are to the same titles on NU)

Definitely a few here I'm very excited about - the only one I've personally already read is Copper Coins - and it's looking like we'll have a pretty cool line-up going into the second half of 2025 (the earliest release date for any of the above is July 2025).

I've added all the new licenses and made a few other updates to the master list I maintain of titles licensed in English. That list is here. If you know of anything I've missed, please don't hesitate to let me know any time!

also, thanks for pointing me toward that post about Chaleuria. When I was looking at this carrd today - https://licenseddanmei.carrd.co/ - they mentioned that Chaleuria had shut down but there was no source and I didn't have time to track it down so I didn't make any changes. But now I know!

Kinda kicking myself for not grabbing those books when I could, sigh, but then, I prefer to get print if at all possible and they were e-book only afaik, so.

(the linked carrd is a good one, it's the only list as I've found that's nearly as exhaustive as my own, and it has more about rumored licenses than mine does. I don't add a title until I know for sure that someone has it, I won't add a "unknown title" place holder. not that it's wrong to do so, it's just a different approach.)

No problem!

It's so irritating when ebooks go out of print/the license expires. At least with physical books it's sometimes possible to find secondhand copies.

Thank you for that carrd link! I've seen similar ones, but this definitely the most complete.
