Seven Seas Licenses Working as a Goddess! Manga Series

(January 14, 2026) — Seven Seas Entertainment is excited to announce the license acquisition of the manga series Working as a Goddess! by Mizuhira. There's no rest for the hard-working as one woman learns when she goes from overworked in life to working harder in the afterlife—as a substitute goddess! An adorably hilarious josei manga about two women trying their best.

After working herself to the bone for a shady company, poor Kasumi died from overworking! But if she thinks she's getting a break in the afterlife, she's got another thing coming. Right when she's about to start her second life, she's suddenly pushed into a job—as a substitute goddess! Thankfully, she has the help of the very capable angel, Mashiro, who will guide her through this new responsibility. But is she really the right person for the job to deal with other reincarnated souls—and their personalities?!

Working as a Goddess! Vol. 1 will be printed for the first time in the English language in January 2027 for $13.99 USA / $17.99 CAN, with the series available in single volume editions. Ebook editions will also be available on digital platforms.
