Sora, the creator of the manga, debuted the series in Hakusensha’s Hana to Yume magazine in July 2017. Initially intended as a short series, it evolved into a long-term serialization. The manga is set to conclude in five chapters, as announced in the seventh issue of Hakusensha’s Hana to Yume magazine this year.
Sora Mizuki, who uses the pen name Sora, has authored other works such as The Story of Our Unlikely Love, published in Kodansha’s Bessatsu Friend magazine, and collaborates on A Reincarnated Witch Spells Doom manga with Tail Yuzuhara.
