Claudine

A pioneering work of shōjo manga, Claudine originally ran in the 1970s and is presented here in a new English-language edition from Seven Seas Entertainment. Written and illustrated by Riyoko Ikeda—the legendary creator of The Rose of Versailles—this single-volume story follows a young intersex protagonist navigating love and identity in early 20th-century France. With lush, dramatic artwork and a deeply empathetic narrative, it stands as a landmark exploration of gender and romance in the medium. This edition features a translation by Jocelyn Allen, bringing Ikeda’s classic to a new generation of readers.
