The anime is an adaptation of the manga by Kuze Ran.

Kodansha released the manga’s first tankoubon volume in August 2021 and the 14th volume in May 2024. The 15th volume will be released on July 17th, 2024.
Mona is the cutest girl in school, and she knows it. In fact, she’s worked hard to make her high school debut successful. But no matter what she does, she can’t seem to catch the eye of stone-cold stoic Medaka Kuroiwa—but she’s not about to give up that easy. Medaka, on the other hand, was raised at a temple and was told never to become close to women. Who will win in this heated battle of wills?
