Hirosaki previously drew a manga adaptation of Ryū Hidari 's The Heroic Tale of the Villainous Prince ( Akuyaku Ōji no Eiyūtan ) novels. The manga launched in Kadokawa 's KadoComi website under the Dengeki Comic Regulus label in July 2023, and ended in March 2025. Kadokawa published three compiled book volumes for the manga. Yen Press is publishing the manga in English, and released the third volume on July 28.
