The Boxer Vol. 10 changes things up and gets philosophical as it debates the meaning of life

Posted on April 24, 2025 by Brett

How did a man like K become so hellbent on seeing the pinnacle of human superiority? How did a boy like Yu lose the light in his eyes? Two very different paths converged in space and time and led to this very moment―a moment of life and death, human and monster, power and omnipotence. As Yu and Aaron circle the drain, a god may be born…or a life may be taken!

Covering chapters 87 to 95

Sakura-Con 2025: Ize Press Announces Two Manhwa Licenses

Posted on April 19, 2025 by Graphic Policy Team

At the Yen Press Industry Panel at Sakura-Con 2025, Ize Press announced the English print publication of two Korean comics: The Merman Trapped in My Lake and I Love Amy. The publication dates of both titles are forthcoming.

The Merman Trapped in My Lake

Art by R.PPOBI
Original Story by Mitchu

Servaine Noxirel grew up hearing stories from her great-grandfather—tales of the grandeur their noble house once enjoyed and the madness that ran through the bloodline. But the strangest of them all was the story of his niece, a sickly young girl who owned a merman she cherished so deeply that she trapped him in a lake to keep him all to herself. Despite apparently bearing a striking resemblance to her and being named after her, Servaine dismisses this story about her great-aunt as nothing more than a fairy tale. That is, until she meets the merman who believes his Servaine finally came back for him after a hundred years. But has he been waiting all this time because of love? Or for revenge…?

The Merman Trapped in My Lake is an ongoing dramatic romantasy manhwa following the unsettling relationship between a woman seeking to restore her dukedom as the last heir of her family and a beautiful merman with unknown motives and the power to enchant. This supernatural romance is serialized on WEBTOON with 920K+ views. With themes of desperation, obsession, and longing, The Merman Trapped in My Lake will bewitch readers with its hauntingly stunning art and dark foreshadowing.

I Love Amy

By unni

Bibi loves Peter. And Peter would love Bibi…if not for that pesky girl Peter was talking to in the school hallway! Bibi needs her out of the way, so she invites her new rival over for “a sleepover.” But instead of making sure the girl from the halls won’t be a threat anymore, Bibi enjoys a pleasant night with her new friend, Amy. As they fall asleep, Bibi wrestles with an unfamiliar and confusing feeling. Something must be wrong, because Bibi loves Peter…right?

Complete in four volumes, I Love Amy is a bingeworthy Girls Love manhwa about an unlikely friendship-turned-romance. As the first Girls Love manhwa published by Ize Press, I Love Amy features captivatingly complex characters, a dash of comedy, and a simple yet cute art style that contrasts its dark and psychological themes. As the two girls’ friendship of convenience leads to love, readers can enjoy the clever juxtaposition between the wholesome slice-of-life moments and the creepy twists. The webcomic is originally serialized on Tappytoon.

Jungle Juice Vol. 6 is packed with action and sets up a lot to come. Great story, fantastic art.

The dust settles in the wake of the Predators’ carnage, leaving Professor Ji in a coma and the school’s entire supply of Cinderella plundered. NEST has taken a severe hit―but they’re not down for the count. And what better way to get revenge on a much stronger enemy than an ambush? All Suchan and his friends need is a way off campus and the element of surprise…which is easier said than done with a traitor in their midst!

To close out the month of romance, Ize Press has revealed the release date for the English print edition of the beloved reincarnation romantasy novel Villains Are Destined to Die.

Villains Are Destined to Die (novel)

By Gwon Gyeoeul

Surprise event unlocked—the release of the original novel behind the hit fantasy romance comic!

When a college student with a tragic past picks up reverse harem video game Daughter of the Duke’s Super Love Project, she immediately sees herself in one of the characters. Not the adored heroine of easy mode, Ivonne, no—but the protagonist of hard mode, misunderstood villain Penelope. Little did she know that she’d go to sleep playing the story…and wake up in Penelope’s body! The only way to escape the game world? Charm one of the love interests and reach his good ending. But with affection meters starting in the negative and the inability to speak without choosing from preselected dialogue, it quickly becomes clear that a single wrong move means her demise—and this villain might just be destined to die!

This novel is the source material that inspired one of today’s most popular webcomics, which is currently being published in print by Ize Press and is one of the best-selling titles from the imprint to date. This addictively crafted story offers mind-blowing world-building, engaging character depth, and gripping drama. The webnovel has received over 1.7 million views and 145 thousand likes on Tapas, and the English print edition will collect the complete webnovel series in 5 gorgeous paperback volumes.

Villains Are Destined to Die is a must-read for fans of reverse-harem romance stories, transmigration fantasies with doomed heroines, and tragic stories filled with angst and drama. The Korean content powerhouse Ize Press is proud to be releasing the English print edition, and readers can look forward to adding Villains Are Destined to Die (novel) to their collection. This prose masterpiece is set to release August 2025 in print, eBook, and audio formats.

Posted on January 2, 2025 by Brett

Pet Shop’s Predators have launched a blitz attack on NEST! Feed-trained and yet retaining their rationality, these overpowered monsters have no qualms about blowing up innocent citizens and slashing down anyone who gets in their way. It’s an earth-shattering fight the likes of which Suchan and his friends have never seen before, where survival itself is not guaranteed. The most horrifying part? The Predators’ acts of terror are all a ruse to mask their true purpose–killing Professor Ji!
