The 2.5 Dimensional Seduction manga is currently available to read now on Shonen Jump+ in Japan. In the west, Seven Seas Entertainment carries English volumes of the manga. Seven volumes have been published, and two more volumes are coming in November 2023 and February 2024 respectively.
Here’s an overview of the manga series, via Seven Seas Entertainment:
“I have no interest in real girls!” So claims Okumura, the president of the school’s manga club. He’s your typical otaku, obsessed with a sexy (fictional) 2D manga character known as Liliel. Then the new school year starts, and a (real!) 3D girl named Lilysa whose passion is cosplay joins the club. Lilysa convinces Okumura to become her photographer–and guess who her favorite manga character is? Not only that, but Lilysa is into modeling the fetishy stuff! The boundaries between 2D and 3D start to blur as this hot-blooded romantic comedy unfolds.
Lastly, the 2.5 Dimensional Seduction anime adaptation will air at some point in July. The anime’s staff will likely reveal more about the series’ exact release date in the coming months.
