I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince Manga Returns: Lloyd's Magic Adventure Continues Where It Left Off!
Magic-obsessed Prince Lloyd is back! Kodansha's popular series I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince (Tensei shitara Dai Nana Ouji dattanode, Kimama ni Magutsu o Kiwamemasu) has broken its silence with news that has delighted fans. The manga, which took a short break after the conclusion of the epic Stampede arc on November 15, officially returned to serialization as of April 14. This comeback has created great excitement among the series' loyal followers.
Authored by Kenkyo na Circle and illustrated by Yosuke Kokuzawa, the series is known for the fresh breath of air it brings to the isekai genre. The story of Lloyd, who was an untalented mage in his previous life but gained immense magical power after being reincarnated as a prince, draws particular attention with Kokuzawa's mesmerizing and dynamic illustrations. Published via Kodansha's Magazine Pocket app, the manga has achieved great commercial success, selling over 7 million copies as of 2025 and becoming one of the platform's most-read works.
The manga's hiatus coincided with the period immediately following the Stampede arc, one of the darkest and most action-packed chapters of the series. In this arc, Lloyd faced the mysterious Nanashi, who is connected to his own past, and a massive horde of monsters threatening the kingdom. With the start of the new chapters, the direction of Lloyd's magical research in the Kingdom of Saloum and who his new rivals will be are matters of great curiosity. Fans are especially waiting to see what level Kokuzawa's increasingly detailed visual style will reach in the new chapters.
The anime adaptation of the series also continues to receive great interest worldwide. Following the success of the first two seasons produced by Tsumugi Akita Animation Lab, the return of the manga will continue to provide the necessary material for the continuation of the story while fans await news of a third season. If you want to join in on Lloyd's boundless curiosity for magic and the mysteries of the Kingdom of Saloum, we recommend you don't miss the new chapters published on Magazine Pocket!
