Seven Seas Launches Riku Can't Be a Goddess Audiobook for Siren Imprint

(October 8, 2025) — Seven Seas Entertainment is pleased to announce, through its Siren imprint for audiobooks, the launch of the audiobook for Riku Can't Be a Goddess by Kumi Tamaru and Yukihiro Nakamura, with narration by Kristyna Zaharek. From an award-winning author comes this collection of four emotionally gripping stories about high schoolers' acceptance of themselves…and each other.

High school student Ichika has a secret. She allows Riku, her childhood friend and crush, to explore his interest in cross-dressing by acting as his personal dress-up doll: a canvas upon which he can present his ideal of feminine beauty. One day, an unexpected kiss upends this arrangement, sending Ichika fleeing in a panic. What was she really hoping for in their private meetings–and what does Riku want, deep in his heart? And they're not the only students in their class who struggle with love and identity. In this collection of four coming-of-age tales, teenagers grapple with hidden fears and secret desires as they search for themselves in a complicated world.

Riku Can't Be a Goddess (Audiobook) will be released for the first time in the English language on October 16, 2025. Pre-orders available now at sevenseasaudiobooks.com.
