Franchise Origins
Ryon initially launched the manga on the GANMA! service in June 2021, where it steadily built a passionate readership and earned recognition, including a Next Impact Comic award at the second Rakuten Kobo E-book Awards in 2024. Seven Seas Entertainment licenses the series for English readers, following high school junior Kuroki as he navigates sitting next to Mai Chihara—a classmate burdened by rumors of being a moody, unstable jirai-kei archetype, only to discover a genuinely sweet personality underneath.
