Seven Seas Licenses The Long Summer of August 31 Manga Series

(October 9, 2024) — Seven Seas Entertainment is excited to announce the license acquisition of the manga series The Long Summer of August 31 by Ikkado Ito. From the creator of I'm Not Meat–also published by Seven Seas! Two teens discover they're stuck in a never-ending time-loop right at the end of summer vacation–can a new love reset them?

Caught in an endlessly repeating August 31st, high schoolers Suzuki Takaya and Takagi Kana are the only ones who remember each loop. The likely cause? Suzuki's unfinished summer mission to secure a girlfriend and lose his virginity—the ultimate teenage goal. A hilarious yet heartfelt time-loop comedy!

The Long Summer of August 31 Vol. 1 will be printed for the first time in the English language in April 2025 for $13.99 USA / $17.99 CAN, with the manga available in single volume editions. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.
