Publication
Written by Yūto Tsukuda and illustrated by Shun Saeki, the series began serialization in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine on April 10, 2023.[3][4] It is the first time Tsukuda and Saeki worked together since the Yugen's All-Ghouls Homeroom one-shot in May 2020.[2]
Viz Media and Manga Plus are publishing chapters of the series simultaneously with their original release.[5]
Reception
Multiple critics have compared the series' story to Hikaru no Go.[1][6][2] Some critics also offered praise to the filmmaking aspects of the story, with Marc York of Comic Book Resources comparing it to Dr. Stone.[2][7] Joshua Fox of Screen Rant praised the darker story than Hikaru no Go; he also liked the occasional comedic moments.[6] Brian Salvatore of Multiversity Comics liked the series, though he felt it used too many tropes; he also felt the series over-sexualized some of its characters.[8] Kota Mukaihara of Real Sound compared Tsukuda and Saeki's transition from their previous work Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma to Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata's transition from Death Note to Bakuman.[1]
Salvatore felt the artwork did a good job emphasizing the series' comedic moments and making other parts feel more creepy. He concluded that "Saeki does really nice work here that pushes the story beyond its familiar roots".[8]
