Yen Press Reschedules Light Novel and Manga Releases
A Reduction in Monthly Releases and a Shift in Schedule in Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic
Yen Press announced today that it will forego the solicitation of their September 2020 catalog and will reschedule the print and digital publication of several volumes of manga and light novels. Titles originally solicited with an on-sale date between May and August will be redistributed through September, reducing new releases in the coming months. This decision is a response to the continued impact of the coronavirus pandemic on key Yen Press partners, in particular distributors and retailers, as well as fans and readers of Yen Press books.
April Yen Press titles will be released as scheduled.
Readers are encouraged to check YenPress.com for the full statement from the publisher and future updates on specific titles.
