Seven Seas Licenses The Neverending Winter, the Land of Broken Dreams Light Novel (Airship Imprint)

(October 15, 2025) — Seven Seas Entertainment is excited to announce the license acquisition of the light novel The Neverending Winter, the Land of Broken Dreams by Mei Hachimoku and KUKKA. What was supposed to be a fun day at the amusement park turns into a nightmarish time loop for one high schooler. From the creators of the light novel and manga series The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes (also from Seven Seas), which inspired an anime film.

After winning tickets to an old theme park on the outskirts of Tokyo, Casio and his friends brave the eerie rumors surrounding the place for a little winter adventure. However, what was supposed to be a fun day trip takes a horrific turn when one friend lures Casio away from the group—and stabs him to death. While he bleeds out, his friend tearfully begs him to save someone named Asebi. When Casio next awakens, time has rewound to the moment he set foot in the park that morning. Though he's shaken and desperate for answers, his “second” day goes by without incident—until he tries to leave and snaps right back to that morning again. As he spirals into panic, a mysterious girl appears and introduces herself as Asebi. She tells him she's been trapped in the park for a long time, reliving the same day over and over. Now Casio is caught in the loop as well…and according to Asebi, the only way out is to kill someone.

The Neverending Winter, the Land of Broken Dreams (Light Novel) will be printed for the first time in the English language in September 2026 for $15.99 USA / $20.99 CAN in a single large-trim edition as part of Seven Seas' Airship imprint. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.
