Viz Media released the manga's first volume in English on March 4, and the third volume on September 2. The company describes the first volume:
Sae and Kōki have been friends since childhood. One fateful day at the end of middle school, she has a revelation: Koki has grown up! Now they're in high school, and she has another revelation: she has feelings for Kōki! But Sae isn't the only girl who does… The question is, who does Kōki have feelings for?!
Kawahara (My Love Story!!, High School Debut, Aozora Yell) launched the manga in Shueisha's Bessatsu Margaret magazine in June 2021. Shueisha shipped the manga's 12th compiled book volume on August 25.
Update: Changed director's name. Thanks, Calathan.
