Seven Seas Entertainment has licensed five new manga, light novels, and danmei novel titles, including Aharen-san is Indecipherable.
Here are the details for Seven Seas’ newest licenses:
Aharen-san is Indecipherable
Story and Art: Asato Mizu
The first ominous volume will contain the original manga’s first two volumes together. It will be printed for the first time in the English language in February 2026 as 2-in-1 omnibus editions. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.
The manga has inspired a TV anime adaptation from Felix Film, with the first season airing in 2022 and the second season currently broadcasting since April 2025. Crunchyroll is streaming the series worldwide, outside Japan, under its Japanese title Aharen-san wa Hakarenai.
Synopsis:
Super quiet Aharen Reina isn’t great with personal space—she’s either inches from your face or too far to hear, leaving people totally baffled. But when Raido, the friendly guy seated next to her, helps retrieve a dropped eraser, Aharen suddenly wants to get closer to him. From that moment on, she’s constantly by his side. And surprisingly…he’s cool with it.
This offbeat, sweet-natured rom-com proves that friendship—and maybe even something more—can bloom from the most awkward encounters.

In the year 2020, humanity was nearly wiped out by cosmic radiation. Over the next one hundred years, living creatures began to change and mutate while the remaining humans struggled to survive in man-made bases.
Down in the Abyss, a home to mutated xenogenics, there lived a sentient mushroom. Nourished by the flesh and blood of the deceased An Ze, the mushroom took on the form of its host and even adopted a similar name: An Zhe. Seeking his missing spore, harvested by humans, An Zhe is determined to make it to the human base to retrieve what’s his. But the closer he gets to the base, the higher his risk of death increases.
Unfortunately for An Zhe, there are those who prowl the streets seeking xenogenics like himself—known as Judges, they inspect and eliminate non-humans without a second thought, sparing no one. And when An Zhe finds himself under the scrutiny of Colonel Lu Feng—the most perceptive and merciless of the Judges—he somehow goes undetected but not unsuspected. Lu Feng knows there’s something off about An Zhe, and he’s not letting him out of his sight until he figures it out.
Can An Zhe get back his spore without revealing his mutation to Lu Feng, or will everything unravel?

Synopsis:
Half-demon Luo Binghe rose from humble beginnings and a tortured past to become unrivaled in strength and beauty. With his dominion over both the Human and Demon Realms and his hundreds-strong harem, he is truly the most powerful protagonist…in a trashy webnovel series!
At least, that’s what Shen Yuan believes as he finishes reading the final chapter in Proud Immortal Demon Way. But when a bout of rage leads to his sudden death, Shen Yuan is reborn into the world of the novel in the body of Shen Qingqiu–the beautiful but cruel teacher of a young Luo Binghe. While Shen Qingqiu may have the incredible power of a cultivator, he is destined to be horrifically punished for crimes against the protagonist.
The new Shen Qingqiu now has only one course of action: get into Luo Binghe’s good graces before the young man’s rise to power or suffer the awful fate of a true scum villain!
