Oh, wow. I'd long since given up on Last Game ever being licensed, and already bought the whole series in Japanese. I'll definitely pick it up in English as well though!

The snake one sounds surprisingly cute, but I'm terrified of snakes, so I'll have to pass on it.

It IS a cute rom-com, in its own way, spoiler[counted you don't mind seeing the sex life of the main leads depicted in all its graphic glory. In their original forms. I only remember one other similar instance of inter-species copulation, and that was in Shed! Ryugasaki-San(English license by KaitenBooks). And that was only an attempt, and off-screen...
And vore, lets not forget the vore. Fortunately for the fmc that one only goes far enough to keep her warm on a chilly day. Not everyone is that lucky though...]


Kudos to Seven Seas having the balls to license this. Despite the content of it being what it is, it's still a quite heart-warming, albeit also quite tragic, love story.

Woah, yesterday I was wondering why no one licensed Gojussenchi no Isshоu considering how pretty the art is and how much publishers love cat manga. Thought it was too late since it finished a couple of years ago to little fanfare, but with Last Game getting licensed, I guess it's never too late. Can't wait to add them to my collection!

Oh cool! I wanted to read the cat one for awhile but fan translations stopped. I also uh read the snake one but yeah the single chapter that was translated was also deleted off the site shortly after for content so yeah I did not expect that one

That is only one hurdle, it remains to be seen if Amazon Kindle will release it. Of course that only hurts us digital only folks.

There are a surprising amount of cat manga...

I appreciate that they seemingly haven't given the Snake God a human form.

Last Game seems cute!

Same here! I know there was a digital-only release out there, but I've been asking for Last Game on reader surveys for a while now haha. Super cute series and looking forward to revisiting it.

Yay some Hana to Yume magazine manga series getting licensed in English! Pretty rare to see that these days.
