Seven Seas Entertainment is pleased to announce the license acquisition of the manga series The Barbarian’s Bride by Noriaki Kotoba. Also known as The Warrior Princess and the Barbaric King on K MANGA, this fantasy manga follows a captured knight who finds herself betrothed to the leader of the very tribe she was sent to fight.

Serafina de Lavillant, the strongest female knight in the West, was sent to subjugate the barbaric tribes of the East. But when her mission fails spectacularly, she’s captured alive and imprisoned. Humiliated and dreading what horrific torture she’ll endure, she asks to be put to death. To her surprise, rather than tearing her limb from limb, the tribe leader asks for her hand...in marriage! Will Serafina face a cruel and abusive arranged marriage? Or will she discover that these tribes aren’t as barbaric as she was led to believe?

The Barbarian’s Bride Vol. 1 will be printed for the first time in the English language in October 2024 for $14.99 USA / $18.99 CAN, with the series available in single-volume editions. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.
