In November 2013, Digital Manga announced that they had licensed the first three volumes of the series for publication in North America under their Project-H imprint.[8] The publisher regularly licenses series on a volume-by-volume basis.[9] It released the first volume digitally on 15 December 2014.[10] The print volumes were originally scheduled to be released in March,[11] June,[12] and September 2015, respectively.[13] The first volume was later rescheduled to January 2016, but missed that window also.[3] In May 2016, Digital Manga launched PeCChi, a new imprint that focused on non-pornographic adult titles, and announced that several of its former Project-H titles would be transferring to the new imprint, starting with Princess Lucia,[14] but this did not happen.[15]
