Seven Seas Licenses Chasing Spica Yuri/Girls' Love Manga Series
(October 18, 2023) – Seven Seas Entertainment is pleased to announce the license acquisition of the manga series Chasing Spica by Chihiro Orihi. In this yuri drama, a flashy but studious high schooler discovers that her rival, a strict disciplinary committee member, may also be more than meets the eye.
Nekozuka Serina is a serious third-year high school student who's studying hard to qualify for a scholarship. Her cute and stylish looks, however, don't exactly meet the school dress code—which Tachibana Reiko, a member of the disciplinary committee, is always on her case about. Plus, no matter how much Serina tries, Reiko always bests her in grades and athletics. One day, however, Serina spots Reiko meeting with an unknown woman after school...and going to a love hotel! What will happen between Serina and Reiko now that they share a secret?
Chasing Spica Vol. 1 will be released for the first time in the English language in June 2024 for $14.99 USA / $18.99 CAN, with the series available in single large-trim editions as part of the Seven Seas GL label (Girls' Love/yuri titles). Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.
