The manga's story follows the assassin Karin Kirisaki who, after an assassination attempt on a female artist, is exposed to her manga series "Tokimero." Her life changes, and Karin becomes determined to live a refreshing student life. Unfortunately, she can't leave her past behind, and an assassin soon follows after her into school.
The manga launched in Monthly Shonen Gangan in May 2024. Tuchihi is credited for the original story and Amemoto drew the manga. Square Enix published the manga's first volume on January 10, and the second volume on April 12.
