With Satoshi Kon's animated masterpiece, Perfect Blue, celebrating its 20th anniversary next month, our friends at Seven Seas Entertainment are happy to announce their releases of both the original novel that inspired the film, Perfect Blue: Complete Metamorphosis, as well as a follow up novel set in the same universe, Perfect Blue: Awaken From A Dream !

Perfect Blue: Complete Metamorphosis focuses on Kirigoe Mima, in the third year of her career as a pure and innocent pop idol. Feeling like something big needs to change, she plans to give her image a major update. When the new Mima is revealed–complete with a sexy outfit and a risqué photo book–one of her most obsessive fans refuses to accept her transformation. To restore Mima to the innocent girl of her debut, he puts a terrifying plan to action that throws her life into chaos and mortal peril.

Perfect Blue: Awaken From A Dream is a new set of stories based in the Perfect Blue universe, available for the first time in English! Delve deeper into the dark underbelly of super-stardom, where fame comes at a steep price. In this sequel anthology to the hit psychological thriller, Perfect Blue, creepy fans thrust their idols into struggles of life and death. Gruesome body switches, bloody fan letters, and a stalker in a terrifying rabbit costume–it’s a life of fame and misfortune that lies in wait for these hapless pop stars.

Both novels are available digitally and in paperback now! And see the film Perfect Blue, in theaters September 6th and 10th!
