Seven Seas Entertainment have announced that they will be publishing Yuhki Kamatani’s Shimanami Tasogare into English. Seven Seas Marketing Manager Lianne Sentar said “It manages to represent so many different ways that people shape their identities and find their unique spaces, which is something anyone can relate to. It’s no wonder this compelling drama has resonated with so many people.” The first volume of Shimanami Tasogare will release on May 7, 2019 and will retail for $12.99 USA/ $15.99 CAN.
Not only is high schooler Tasuku Kaname the new kid in town, he’s also terrified that he’s been outed as gay. Just as he’s contemplating doing the unthinkable, Tasuku meets a mysterious woman who leads him to a group of people dealing with problems not so different from his own. In this realistic, heartfelt depiction of LGBT+ characters from different backgrounds finding their place in the world, a search for inner peace proves to be the most universal experience of all.
