Seven Seas Launches When It Rains, It Pours Audiobook for its Siren Imprint

Seven Seas Entertainment has announced, through its Siren imprint for audiobooks, the launch of the audiobook for When It Rains, It Pours by Michi Ichiho and Lala Takemiya, with narration by Derek Prince. Two strangers find shelter in one another as an anonymous exchange sparks friendship. But can it lead into something more? A Boys’ Love light novel that proves every storm leads to brighter days—from the creative team behind Yes, No, or Maybe?, also available from Seven Seas!

Hagiwara Kazuaki, who’s living the “normal” life of a working man, is worried by the distance growing between him and his live-in girlfriend. Meanwhile, his co-worker, Nakarai Sei, quietly pines for his male roommate and childhood friend. One day, a misfired email sparks an anonymous exchange between Hagiwara and Nakarai, leading to an odd but comforting friendship built on shared frustrations and anxieties.

At first, anyway. Hagiwara and Nakarai’s shared secret soon blossoms into something more: a passion that risks swallowing them both up. If their turbulent feelings are rushing to find an outlet, will they find it in each other—and will it blow up their lives?

When It Rains, It Pours (Audiobook) will be released for the first time in the English language on October 15, 2026. Pre-orders available now at sevenseasaudiobooks.com.

Seven Seas Launches Yes, No, or Maybe? Audiobook for its Siren Imprint

Yes, No, or Maybe? (Audiobook) Vol. 1

Seven Seas Entertainment has announced, through its Siren imprint for audiobooks, the launch of the audiobook for Yes, No, or Maybe? by Michi Ichiho and Lala Takemiya, with narration by Derek Prince. The fan-favorite Boys’ Love light novel about the secret lives of men who work in television that inspired the anime film—manga also from Seven Seas!

Kunieda Kei is the up-and-coming Prince Charming of the evening news. Inside, he’s the opposite: brash, hot-tempered, and prickly as can be. For years, Kei has successfully juggled his private and professional personas–until a chance meeting with a stop motion animator threatens to bring it all crashing down. But is that really as frightening as the possibility that someone might love and accept both sides of who he is?

Yes, No, or Maybe? (Audiobook) Vol. 1 will be released for the first time in the English language on April 16, 2026. Pre-orders available now at sevenseasaudiobooks.com.
