The anime is based on Ejima Eri’s Tai Ari Deshita: Ojou-sama wa Kakutou Game Nante Shinai manga. Ejima started the manga in January 2020 in Kadokawa’s Monthly Comic Flapper magazine, and Kadokawa published the manga’s first tankoubon volume in June 2020 and the eighth volume in October 2024. The manga’s ninth volume will be released on June 23rd, 2025.
Seven Seas Entertainment publishes the manga in English under the name Young Ladies Don’t Play Fighting Games, and it will release the manga’s eighth volume on September 30th, 2025. It describes the story below:
Kuromi Girls’ Academy is a refined, elegant school that expects the very best in deportment from its young ladies. Aya got into this peerless rich-girls’ institution on a scholarship, and hopes to grow as lovely as her fellow student and idol Shirayui. But Shirayui hides a terrible secret: she’s a trash-talking, combo-chaining, newbie-stomping, ruthless hardcore gamer! Could a mutual indulgence in no-holds-barred video game combat grow into a deeper rapport between these two girls?
