Anime Expo 2018: Yen Press Announces New Manga, Light Novel Licenses

By Josh PiedraJuly 8, 2018
Yen press

At their panel at Anime Expo, Yen Press announced several new manga and light novel titles! The following titles were announced:

Light Novel

  • Penguin Highway
  • The Night is Young
  • Walk on Girl
  • Mirai
  • Bungo Stray Dogs
  • Woof Woof Story
  • 86

Manga

  • Yume de Mita: Anoko no Tame ni
  • Monster Wrestling
  • Nyankees
  • Plunderer
  • Kakegurui Twins
  • Happy Sugar Life
  • DIVE!!

In addition to these announcements, Yen Press stated that they will begin publishing print editions of Shut-In Shoutarou Kominami Takes on the World manga as well as The Witch’s House – The Diary of Ellen manga. Both series are currently offered on their digital manga platform. While all of these titles were announced today at their panel, release dates for the titles were not.

Before someone makes a note that I listed DIVE!! under the wrong section as many sites are reporting it as a light novel, Yen Press did put out a Tweet confirming that the license for DIVE!! is for the manga and not the light novel, Apparently, there was some confusion over the announcement made during their panel.

Just to clear up some apparent confusion, our license for DIVE!! is for the manga, not the novel.
