Seven Seas Licenses 'Family, Now and Forever' Boys' Love Manga

(February 19, 2025) — Seven Seas Entertainment is pleased to announce the license acquisition of the Boys Love manga Family, Now and Forever by Hakase. An endearing Boys' Love story about changing ways, love, and family.

Naguru once lived a rough life as the leader of a gang, getting into fights in order to protect his friends. His loved ones all admired his strength and kindness, but also worried that his dangerous lifestyle would get him killed. When Hirao first met Naguru, he didn't know about the man's gang affiliation: all Hirao knew in that moment was that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Naguru.

Hirao's love for Naguru changes him, and eventually the rough and tumble gang leader becomes a father, with the two men raising their adorable son, Towa! Come join the loving family of three in this new BL series!

Family, Now and Forever Vol. 1 will be released for the first time in the English language in November 2025 for $14.99 USA / $18.99 CAN, with the manga available in large-trim paperback editions as part of the Seven Seas BL Label (Boys' Love titles). Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.
