Shinzō launched the Hirayasumi manga in Shogakukan’s Weekly Big Comic Spirits magazine in April 2021, and Shogakukan will publish the manga’s ninth compiled book volume on July 30. The series surpassed 1.1 million copies in circulation. VIZ Media licensed the manga and began to publish it in May 2024, and six volumes have been released in print thus far.

Lastly, here’s a story synopsis, via VIZ Media:

At 29 years old, carefree Hiroto Ikuta doesn’t have a girlfriend, a full-time job, or a plan for the future—and he couldn’t be happier. Hiroto’s breezy attitude isn’t easy for everyone to understand, though. In a world filled with anxiety, confusion, and grief, Hiroto and the people around him are all just doing their best to figure out this thing called life.
