AHABOOKS Debuts with Scissor Seven Spin-Off, Expanding AHAVERSE's Global Multimedia Strategy
July 10, 2026
BilibiliWorld 2026 unveils AHAVERSE’s multi-format expansion: a major Scissor Seven feature film, new spin-offs, a publishing imprint, a mobile game, and live music events to build a cohesive ecosystem.
Beyond the film and spin-offs, additional projects include Scissor Seven: The Movie (2028), HEIBAI, and an official action-adventure mobile game, contributing to a long-term multimedia strategy.
AHAVERSE’s announcement at BilibiliWorld 2026 highlights a structured multimedia plan to weave together animation, games, publishing, and live events.
AHABOOKS launches as a publishing and story development arm to expand worldbuilding beyond animation, starting with Cheap-Life Hua, a Scissor Seven spin-off manhua whose first volume is planned for release in early 2027 and which will be accompanied by a 2026 commemorative issue.
The first title under AHABOOKS is Cheap-Life Hua, a tankobon-format spin-off focusing on the character Hua, designed to deepen Xuanwu’s history within the Scissor Seven universe.
The Scissor Seven movie is envisioned as a standalone cinematic experience that broadens scale and stakes while preserving the series’ humor and emotional core, returning to Xuanwu to explore its culture, history, and factions.
A new Scissor Seven mobile game blends fast-paced side-scrolling action with life on Chicken Island, letting players manage a business, interact with characters, and access original canon content to reinforce world immersion.
HEIBAI expands the universe by exploring a broader generation of characters and factions, revealing elements of Xuanwu and Seven’s era in a way that feels fresh rather than filler.
AHAVERSE presents its projects as parts of an interconnected world rather than isolated releases, with ongoing updates and more announcements planned.
HEIBAI, a new animated spin-off premiering in early 2027 in China, chronicles earlier adventures of Mo Lang and Bai Qi, emphasizing friendship and growth.
AHAVERSE outlines a global expansion strategy targeting more than 190 countries, leveraging original animation on platforms like Netflix, with a fan base surpassing 40 million and billions of views.
AHAVERSE seeks broad accessibility, delivering enjoyable experiences for newcomers while offering depth for longtime fans through interconnected storytelling and evolving canon.
