Seven Seas Entertainment has licensed the manga under its Ghost Ship label and will release the first compiled book volume on October 8. Seven Seas Entertainment describes the manga:
Sunohara Hinata thought that defeating the evil overlord and returning to high school in Japan marked the end of his otherworldly adventures. But when Mariabell, his first and most devoted ally from the magical world, follows him home, his everyday life takes a strange turn. Just a month after his return, Mariabell, a dark elf with a passionate and slightly obsessive love, declares that they intend to be together forever. Now Hinata must navigate the halls of high school while living with a jealous magical girlfriend who takes “school romance” to a whole new level. Join them as they navigate life’s unexpected twists and turns in this exhilarating romantic comedy adventure!
Nakanosora launched the manga on Takeshobo's Web Comic Gamma Plus service in 2021. Takeshobo published the manga's third compiled book volume on Friday.
WWWave Corporation launched the Deregula anime label in June 2023 to begin producing anime about other companies' IPs. Previously, WWWave Corporation focused on producing anime based on its own original manga. The company plans to release four new anime titles per year under the Deregula label while continuing to produce its AnimeFesta titles at a rate equivalent to at least four titles per year. Yandere Dark Elf is the first announced anime from Deregula.
WWWave Corporation was founded in 2010 and has since launched its digital comics site ComicFesta and its wwwave Comics brand. The company produces more adult-oriented manga with love and mature romance. The company also has the shōnen Trahison label which features shōnen-themed manga and “a large amount of fan service.”
WWWave Corporation also owns the AnimeFesta programming block. AnimeFesta (formerly Anime Zone and ComicFesta Anime) has produced short anime adaptations of over 30 ComicFesta manga over the past six years, many of which are adult or risqué in nature. The first AnimeFesta anime was On a Lustful Night Mingling with a Priest (Sōryo to Majiwaru Shikiyoku no Yoru ni…), whose Japanese title has led to AnimeFesta anime sometimes being referred to by fans as “Sōryo-waku” (Sōryo type). Most anime series have two different versions: a “broadcast” version (the censored version that airs on television) and an uncensored “deluxe” version that is distributed online.
WWWave Corporation releases many of these anime titles in English on its Coolmic website. Coolmic also releases manga in English from the company.
