(September 25, 2024) — Seven Seas Entertainment is excited to announce the license acquisition of the manga series Gene Bride by Hitomi Takano. This shojo romance drama follows a woman sick of workplace misogyny and a man she just happened to be matched with in a middle school experiment!
Isahaya Ichi is fed up with men, a woman navigating a world where she’s underestimated at work because of her gender and sexually harassed. But when her former classmate, Masaki, unexpectedly shows up, everything changes. He claims to be the other half of her “destined pair” from a junior high school event called “Gene Bride,” where genetic information matched students into couples for a day. While Ichi barely remembers the event, Masaki’s sudden reappearance sparks a journey of rediscovery and buried secrets.
Gene Bride Vol. 1 will be printed for the first time in the English language in April 2025 for $14.99 USA / $18.99 CAN, with the series available in single large-trim editions. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.
