North American publisher Seven Seas Entertainment confirmed with ANN that the company has licensed yuri-author Milk Morinaga's Kisses, Sighs, and Cherry Blossom Pink (Kuchibiru Tameiki Sakurairo) manga.

The manga focuses on fourteen stand-alone stories taking place at Sakuraki High School. Seven Seas describes the manga as follows:

Sakuraki Girls High—an all girls school where interrelated tales of love occur. In "Even if We're Not Friends," Nana and Hitomi have been dear friends since childhood, but when Nana gets into the exclusive Sakuraki High while Hitomi doesn't, their true feelings for each other emerge. In "The Summer Closest to Heaven," Natsuka is a ghost who resides at the school, still in love with one of the living students who is now the school nurse. In "A Kiss, Love, and a Prince," Narumi gets her first kiss from Tachiba in the school play, and is shocked at being kissed by a girl.
Morinaga ended Kisses, Sighs, and Cherry Blossom Pink in February's issue of Futabasha's Comic High! magazine and she is currently publishing Gakuen Poriiche (School Police) in the same magazine.

Seven Seas previously announced it would release Morinaga's Girlfriends manga in two omnibus editions in October and January.

Kisses, Sighs, and Cherry Blossom Pink will be published as a single, 320-page omnibus edition in June 2013.

Girlfriend's debut is just a few days away, and in the mean-time, Seven Seas is announcing another title from same yuri-mangaka Morinaga Milk. This is something I can definitely put my money behind.

I do not recognize the mangaka's name but I will be ordering this as soon as Right Stuf lists it.

Will this have the Strawberry label, or did Seven Seas drop that?

I think I will wait for some comments of people who read that before making an order...

That would probably be the smart thing to do, but I am going to take a chance and vote for yuri with my wallet.
I want to give Seven Seas as much incentive as possible to start licensing more yuri titles.
