The December issue of Kodansha's Monthly Dessert magazine announced on Friday that Hypnosis Mic writer Yūichirō Momose and artist Hina Hinata's Bagudan: Sono Otoko-tachi Toriatsukai Chūi ni Tsuki (Bagudan: Handle These Men with Care) manga will end in the magazine's next issue on November 24.
The reverse harem comedy manga centers on Tokiko, a high school student who loves otome games. One day, five handsome guys from a game Tokiko is playing gets reincarnated and become her classmates. Tokiko is thrilled with this twist, but things take a strange turn when the boys' heart-throbbing gestures and charm in the game make her other classmates cringe.
The manga launched in Monthly Dessert on March 24. The manga's first compiled book volume shipped on July 13.
Momose and artist Shiwasu Hoshikawa launched a new manga titled Gyakusatsu Kigen (Genocide Origin) in Kodansha's Afternoon magazine on May 25.
Momose launched the Datewars project in August 2025, with Hanaharu Naruko (Kamichu!, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet, Kandagawa Jet Girls) as character designer, and Mino as music producer, video creator, and music commentator. The "timeless music IP project" aims to bring new life to musical styles from the 70s to the 2000s, and will involve 14 voice actresses, with plans for the franchise to expand into manga, anime, mobile games, concerts, films, and stage events.
Momose is the main scenario writer for Hypnosis Mic. King Records' rap-themed project features voice actors who rap in the personas of original characters, and it launched in September 2017. Hypnosis Mic's first full album Enter the Hypnosis Microphone launched in April 2018. The group earned the top spot as the most popular voice actor Twitter account in Japan for 2018.
