The company added that this has been the first time that a first compilation volume has garnered four reprints in consecutive weeks. Additionally, the work was featured in the cover illustration of this year's issue # 13 of the Kodansha editorial Weekly Shonen Magazine, which was described by the editor as a peculiar event, because this magazine normally has Gravure idols or voice actresses on your cover.
Yoshikawa published the manga within a set of three one-shots in early 2019, for fans to decide which of those three projects would become serialized. Subsequently and after being the winner, Yoshikawa began publishing the manga in Kodansha's Weekly Shonen Magazine in January 2020. The publisher published the first compilation volume on May 15.
The author is recognized for having written the Yamada-kun to 7-nin no Majo manga, which she published in the same magazine between February 2012 and February 2017. The Kodansha publishing house compiled the work in a total of 28 volumes and the manga inspired a twelve episode anime directed by Tomoki Takuno at Liden Films Studios and released in April 2015.
Synopsis of Kakkou no Iinazuke

One day, while on his way to meet his biological parents, he runs into Erika Amano, a strange girl who tries to escape from the marriage arranged by her parents. But Nagi and Erika discover that they have much more in common than they imagine!
