Agent of the Four Seasons

By Kana Akatsuki

From the creator of Violet Evergarden comes a story about the four seasons.

In a world where the only season is winter, the creation of spring chips away at the solitary lifestyle of those enduring the cold. Before long, in accordance with the earth's wishes, summer and fall are born, and the four seasons are complete. The one who carries the burden of the cycle is called the "Agent of the Four Seasons." Now, one young goddess—granted spring by the god of the four seasons and called "Daisy" by her mother—holds that sense of purpose to her chest with pride. However, spring disappeared from this land ten years ago, and she must overcome hardship, fight back against disgrace, and return to the current god. Like a legend, the deepest part of her heart sends love to winter.

Featuring Violet Evergarden's author Kana Akatsuki's brilliant writing, worldbuilding, and character drama, Agent of the Four Seasons is a romance novel that topped the New Title category in Takarajimasha's 2022 This Light Novel Is Amazing! (Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi!) guidebook.

The on-sale date for Fruits Basket: Complete Anime Natsuki Takaya Illustrations will be announced at a later date. The other five titles are scheduled for a November 2023 release following their summer release slate.
