Princess Lucia (プリンセスルシア, Purinsesu Rushia) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kōji Seo. The series first volume was digitally released in North America by Digital Manga.

Plot[edit]

Princess Lucia of the demon realm decides that she must have a child with Yuta, a normal human student, as the child born from their union would possess great power. However, two angels, Rie and Eru, are intent on keeping her from achieving her goal.[2][3]

Characters[edit]

The series has four main characters:

  • Princess Lucia (ルシア, Rushia)[4]
A princess from the demon realm who believes that if she were to have a child with Yuta it would be amazingly powerful due to his date of birth.[2]
  • Yuta Koizumi (小泉 ユタ, Koizumi Yuta)[4]
A normal student who happened to be born on 6 June at 6:06:06 during the sixth year of the Heisei period (1994).[2][3]
  • Rie (春日部 リエ, Kasukabe Rie) and Eru (美花本 エル, Mikamoto Eru)[4]
Two angels dedicated to keeping Lucia from having a child with Yuta.[2]

Release[edit]

Kōji Seo began the series as a one-shot in Mag Garden's Monthly Comic Blade in the September 2008 issue, before launching it as a bi-monthly serialized title in the magazine's March 2009 issue.[1] The series went on hiatus before resuming on 30 May 2014.[2] When the Comic Blade magazine ceased print publication on 30 July 2014, the series was moved to Mag Garden's new Monthly Comic Garden magazine starting on 1 September 2014, while also continuing publication on Comic Blade's website.[5][6] The series concluded on 5 October 2015.[6]

Seo released an artbook for the series, Princess Memories (瀬尾公治画集 -PRINCESS MEMORIES-), on 9 November 2012 (ISBN 978-4800000392).[7]

In November 2013, Digital Manga announced that they had licensed the first three volumes of the series for publication in North America under their Project-H imprint.[8] The publisher regularly licenses series on a volume-by-volume basis.[9] It released the first volume digitally on 15 December 2014.[10] The print volumes were originally scheduled to be released in March,[11] June,[12] and September 2015, respectively.[13] The first volume was later rescheduled to January 2016, but missed that window also.[3] In May 2016, Digital Manga launched PeCChi, a new imprint that focused on non-pornographic adult titles, and announced that several of its former Project-H titles would be transferring to the new imprint, starting with Princess Lucia,[14] but this did not happen.[15]

Volumes[edit]

The series was collected into five tankōbon volumes between 2009 and 2015.
