Yuri License Announcements

If they go too gung ho there's a danger of oversaturating the market. Even putting aside yuri specifically, Seven Seas licenses are lacking a bit in diversity lately as a result of this.

Now that you mentioned it, it seems Seven Seas doesn't license many classic titles anymore. In 2021-2022 they were into licensing classic manga but now those licenses are more sparse. Like, at this year's Anime NYC they announced license for the 90's cult classic josei horror manga Pet Shop of Horrors (very excited for that one!) and the previous classic license before that was Marmalade Boy which they announced license for in 2022.

They're currently publishing a new translation/edition of Gravitation (1996-2002 in Japan - originally a Tokyopop title) which I think probably counts as a classic, even if it's not everyone's favourite!
