Manga UP! Global Adds Charlotte: The Tale of a Castle Maid, 'My Faceless Classmate, Wakao' Manga

Manga UP! describes My Faceless Classmate, Wakao:

Mizuno, your average high-school guy, finds himself sitting next to the mysterious Wakao after a seat change. While everyone else in class sees her as a perfectly beautiful, ordinary girl... To Mizuno alone, she appears as a Noppera-bo, the faceless yokai of Japanese folklore!

Yet... every so often, he's actually able to catch rare, fleeting glimpses of her features.

In this romantic, often comedic coming-of-age tale, we follow this endearing couple as they navigate through the tribulations of high-school and first love!

Inariyama launched the manga as a one-shot in October 2023 in Square Enix's Gangan Online, then began serialization in November 2024. The company shipped the second compiled volume of the manga on April 11.

One year ago, her parents vanished.

Left all alone, Charlotte spends her days working as a maid in the castle. On her days off, she always returns to her family home, keeping it tidy so that her parents can settle back in the moment they return. But one day, she arrives to find a complete stranger inside! With trembling hands, Charlotte grips her wooden sword and prepares for the worst...!

Totsuki launched the manga in Square Enix's Gangan Online in February 2024. Square Enix shipped the fourth and final compiled volume of the manga on February 12.
