The anime will debut in October.

The anime stars:

Shinpei Matsuo (Ascendance of a Bookworm season 3, Kakushigoto, Kemono Jihen episode director) is directing the anime at Ajia-do, Deko Akao (Arakawa Under the Bridge two seasons, Ragna Crimson) writing the script, Toshihisa Kaiya (Ascendance of a Bookworm three seasons, World Trigger) is designing the characters, and Hideakira Kimura (Cerberus, Gundam Build Divers, Gundam Build Divers Re:RISE two seasons) is composing the music.

The comedy manga centers on Tsuyoshi Yano, the perennially unlucky high school boy, and Kiyoko Yoshida, the classmate that constantly worries for him. Yoshida sees Yano come into school injured, and Yoshida begins following Yano out of concern for him, observing his unlucky daily life, and resolving to support him.

Tamura launched the manga in Kodansha's Comic Days website in June 2021, and it is ongoing. Kodansha published the manga's 10th compiled book volume on March 12.

The manga also inspired a live-action film that premiered in Japan in November 2024.
