Nogi previously drew the franchise's A Certain Scientific Railgun: Astral Buddy manga. That manga focused on Hokaze Junko, who is a follower and devotee of Misaki in A Certain Scientific Railgun. That manga launched in Kadokawa's Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh magazine in April 2017, and ended in July 2020. The manga's fourth and final compiled book volume shipped in October 2020. Seven Seas Entertainment is releasing the manga in English, and it shipped the fourth volume on April 27.
