The anime is based on Yamamori Mika’s Uruwashi no Yoi no Tsuki manga. Manga author Yamamori (Hirunaka no Ryuusei, Tsubaki-chou Lonely Planet) started the romance manga in July 2020 in Kodansha’s Dessert magazine, and Kodansha published the manga’s first tankoubon volume in December 2020 and the ninth volume in May 2025.
Kodansha USA Publishing releases the manga in English under the name In the Clear Moonlit Dusk, and it published the manga’s eighth volume in July 2025. It describes the manga’s story below:
“Yoi Takiguchi has long legs, a deep voice, and a handsome face…in other words, Yoi is such a good-looking guy that most people don’t notice or care that she is, in fact, a girl. Indeed, she’s had the nickname “Prince” as long as she can remember. That is, until she met Ichimura-senpai…the only person who’s really seemed to see her for herself. To her surprise, she’s not sure how to handle this new relationship, especially when her newfound friend is a prince himself (and a guy prince, at that). The story of the two high school princes starts here!”
