Seven Seas Licenses The Misdeeds of an Extremely Arrogant Villain Aristocrat Light Novel Series (Airship Imprint)

(February 5, 2025) — Seven Seas Entertainment is pleased to announce the license acquisition of the light novel series The Misdeeds of an Extremely Arrogant Villain Aristocrat by Yukiha Kuroyuki and uodenim. When one man is reborn into a fantasy novel as the villain doomed for disaster, he decides to take fate into his own hands. Can he rewrite his destiny, or is he meant for ruin?

Luke Wizalia Gyleberde has been reborn into the world of a fantasy novel as the arrogant villain destined for a disastrous end. But Luke isn't willing to play the hero's ultimate fall guy. Armed with monstrous abilities, he enrolls at Aslan Magic Academy with a single goal: to become the strongest student and avoid his villainous fate. However, rewriting his story and shaking up the delicate balance of character dynamics is easier said than done. Luckily, Luke's growing charisma and power make him a magnetic force, drawing everyone to his side—ranging from high nobles to shadowy schemers, and even the love interests meant for the hero. It seems like he may just sidestep his bad ending. But even the smallest change threatens to send the entire narrative into chaos. Can Luke rewrite his fate, or is his disastrous destiny inevitable?

The Misdeeds of an Extremely Arrogant Villain Aristocrat (Light Novel) Vol. 1 will be printed for the first time in the English language in November 2025 for $15.99 USA / $19.99 CAN in single volume editions as part of Seven Seas' Airship imprint.
