Yoshikawa originally drew Kakkou no Iinazuke as a one-shot in Weekly Shounen Magazine in September 2019, approximately 2.5 years after concluding Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo (Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches). The magazine began serializing the manga the following January. Kodansha published the tenth volume on Monday.

Kodansha US licensed the manga in English in November 2020 and released the fifth volume on August 10 last year.

This is basically NTR in a nutshell, but in a tolerable sense.

Really digging the visuals here for this one and the love triangle (Or square) doesn't seem like it'll be annoying, so I'm excited

Can't pick a favorite girl atm though, I think all 3 of them left a good impression on me lol

Alrighty boys time for another harem, hope this adaptation is good and not boring if the pacing is good.
Also VA choices are pretty solid and music is good.

This is not a harem. There are only three love interests and almost the entire plot is based on a relationship with only one girl.
