Seven Seas Licenses Long Period Boys' Love Manga Series

(February 26, 2025) — Seven Seas Entertainment is thrilled to announce the license acquisition of the Boys Love manga series Long Period by Nagisa Furuya. A tender Boys' Love story about childhood best friends and the unspoken feelings that bind them. From the creator of The Two Lions and Only the Stars Know—both also available from Seven Seas!

Yusei insists he hates his best friend—or at least, that's what he tells himself. Itsuki, his gifted, charming, and impossibly talented friend, seems to be wasting his potential. After all, Itsuki could easily get into any prestigious university or join any sports team, yet he chooses to spend his time with Yusei. Struggling with feelings he can't quite understand, Yusei pretends to despise Itsuki, hoping it will help him overcome his emotions or, at the very least, distance himself from the one person who means so much. But is pretending enough to change Yusei's heart? And what about Itsuki's feelings?

Long Period Vol. 1 will be released for the first time in the English language in August 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.
