Hikaru Sato (The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You, Dropkick on My Devil!) is directing the anime at Gekkō, and Fumihiko Shimo (BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense., Full Metal Panic!, Infinite Stratos) is overseeing and writing the series scripts. Kibidango 14-gō (Azuma Tozawa, Wash It All Away) is designing the characters. Satoru Kōsaki (The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Monogatari Series, Aharen-san wa Hakarenai) and MONACA (Aharen-san wa Hakarenai, Star Driver, Wake Up, Girls!) are composing the music. Ryō Aizawa (Starry Cube) is producing.
Yen Press publishes the manga in English, and it describes the story:
Hizashi Hiruno, a freshman at a super-elite high school, has just finished his first academic proficiency test of the year. He anxiously awaits the results, which will set the tone for his next three years at school. But due to a mistake on his answer sheet, he receives an abysmal score and gets sent to remedial lessons! If there's one silver lining, he's not the only one—and his comrade could be the girl of his dreams?!
Amane has been serializing the manga on Hakusensha's Young Animal Web site since September 2022, and Hakusensha published the ninth volume this past July. Yen Press published the fourth manga volume in June.
