The 44th chapter of Ichi Yukishiro's Skull Dragon's Precious Daughter (Hone Dragon no Manamusume) manga announced on July 14 that the series will go on hiatus for half a year and will return in spring 2027. Yukishiro noted in the announcement that they had been accumulating stress over a long time. They added that despite their editor reducing page counts and lightening their serialization schedule, the effects of their stress have nevertheless shown in the manga.

J-Novel Club releases the manga digitally, and Seven Seas Entertainment publishes the manga in print. J-Novel Club describes the story:

In the Forest of Scraps, a place where all manner of things are discarded, an old dragon sleeps away his final days—that is, until an abandoned child suddenly appears before him. The tiny human is Eve, and despite being only five years of age, she has somehow endured the many dangers that surround them. In an act of pity, the dragon decides to raise her as his own...but his time is still running out.

After five years together, he takes his last breath, leaving his precious daughter on her own. Little does the dragon know, Eve is capable of more than he realizes, and their reunion may be sooner than he thinks…

Hoping to improve Eve's control over her magical abilities before his resurrected body gives out, the skull dragon sets out on an adventure with his reckless human daughter—but who knows what kind of trouble awaits them?

Yukishiro launched the manga on Mag Garden's Mag Comi website in 2020. Mag Garden published the manga's sixth compiled book volume in August 2025. The manga is inspiring a television anime.
