The manga centers on a fearsome samurai, once feared on the battlefield for his great skill. But after his clan came to ruin, he has since lived a quiet and humble life, his intimidating face the only proof of his previous warrior life. One day, he encounters a curious corgi dog, who he is immediately taken with, and they begin a life together.

Nishida launched the manga in Flex Comix's Comic Polaris manga service in March 2021. Flex Comix published the manga's second compiled book volume in May 2023, and will publish the third volume on February 15.
