Hinaki - Becoming a Princess Knight and Working at a Yuri Brothel Manga

Becoming a Princess Knight and Working at a Yuri Brothel is a mature fantasy isekai manga written and illustrated by Hinaki, published under Seven Seas Entertainment's Ghost Ship imprint for adult readers. Naruse Soushi — a 38-year-old male private secretary to a politician — finds himself on the verge of death just as, in another world, the captured princess knight Reina has her soul forcibly removed by enemy forces. Naruse's consciousness is summoned into the vacancy, and he wakes up in Reina's body: young, beautiful, and already sold to a yuri brothel where he is expected to service female clientele as the courtesan Lillion. Determined to unravel the mystery of who Reina was and what happened to her — while navigating the day-to-day realities of his extremely unexpected new career — Naruse throws himself into the work with the same grim professionalism he brought to politics.

The series leans fully into its absurd premise without apology, mixing genderswap isekai comedy with explicit yuri content and a surprisingly functional throughline as Naruse-as-Lillion gradually pieces together the fragments of Reina's life, relationships, and the circumstances that led to her capture. Hinaki's art is polished and character-expressive, handling both the comedy of Naruse's perpetual internal monologue and the series' more explicit moments with a confident, practiced hand. As the volumes progress, the brothel's cast of recurring clients and fellow workers develops into a genuine ensemble, giving the series more emotional texture than its premise might suggest.

A niche but dedicated following has made this one of the more talked-about titles in Seven Seas' Ghost Ship adult imprint since its English debut in early 2024. Fans of gender-bender isekai, explicit yuri, or the specific flavor of "ordinary salaryman dropped into extraordinary fantasy circumstances" comedy will find this exactly what it says on the cover — unapologetic, committed, and genuinely funny in stretches.
