Seven Seas Licenses Tales of the Hundred Monsters Next Door Manga Series

(February 26, 2025) — Seven Seas Entertainment is thrilled to announce the license acquisition of the manga series Tales of the Hundred Monsters Next Door by Yoshiko Watanuki. One man's life is forever changed when a late-night convenience store run leads to the yokai market.

Katagiri Jinpachi is a man plagued by mysteries, and the only one who can help him is the mysterious Harada Oriza, a famed painter of ghost and yokai portraits. These two men share the same peculiar fate, and their wicked tale of the ghastly and the curious, the strange and the shocking, all begins here.

Tales of the Hundred Monsters Next Door Vol. 1 will be printed for the first time in the English language in November 2025 for $14.99 USA / $18.99 CAN, with the series available in single volume editions. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.
