Seven Seas Entertainment is excited to announce the license acquisition—both print and digital—of Mushoku Tensei: Roxy Gets Serious by Rifujin na Magonote and Shoko Iwami, a spin-off backstory series to the hit manga and upcoming light novels published by Seven Seas!

Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation, the sprawling isekai hit about a 34-year-old otaku reborn into a fantasy world, primarily follows the hero Rudeus Grayrat from infancy to adulthood. But this new world is filled with people who share his new life, including Roxy, the woman who trains him in the magical arts. How did Roxy become such a powerful magician on her own? Delve into Roxy’s early adventures in this backstory manga, a hot new series still ongoing in Japan!

“We’re really making 2019 the year of Mushoku Tensei,” says Seven Seas Publisher Jason DeAngelis. “We’re continuing the manga series, releasing the original light novels in print and early digital editions, and now we’re adding the Roxy spin-off to our line-up. This is a great franchise and we’re glad we can deliver it in so many different ways to the fans.”

Seven Seas will publish the manga Mushoku Tensei: Roxy Gets Serious for the first time in North America in paperback and on digital platforms as single volume editions. Volume 1 will be released on April 30, 2019 for $12.99 USA / $15.99 CAN.
