Seven Seas Licenses Love Tattoo Boys' Love Manga

(January 28, 2026) — Seven Seas Entertainment is excited to announce the license acquisition of the Mature-rated Boys Love manga Love Tattoo by Akairo Mash. A salaryman bored with his mediocre life meets a captivating tattoo artist trapped by a past love in this heartwrenching Boys Love manga!

Naoki couldn't help finding Aisuke captivating. Charming, good-looking, and a talented tattoo artist, he is everything that salaryman Naoki isn't. Perhaps it was due to his recent circumstances—a growing boredom with his humdrum life and the recent breakup with his fiancé—but Naoki is completely drawn to Aisuke the moment he passes by the tattoo shop. But there's more to the beautifully inked-up artist who holds a past flame that he still wears on his chest. Can the two meet each other where they are and find comfort in one another?

Love Tattoo will be released in December 2026 for $15.99 USA / $20.99 CAN, with the manga available in a single large-trim edition as part of the Seven Seas BL Label (Boys' Love titles). An ebook edition will also be available on digital platforms.
