It’s the brainchild of Akasaka Aka, known for `Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai` (also known as `Kaguya-sama: Love is War`), and Yokoyari Mengo, the artist behind `Kuzu no Honkai` (also known as `Scum’s Wish`). The story begins when Gorou, an obstetrician working in a rural city, encounters his “oshi” idol, Ai of B-Komachi. This chance meeting sets in motion a bizarre and twisted destiny, creating a novel storyline that blends mystery and drama, captivating readers since its serialization began. The manga concluded its run with Chapter 166, published in Weekly Young Jump’s 50th issue on November 14, 2024.</p> <p>The first season of the TV anime adaptation aired from April 2023. The highly anticipated second season, which premiered on July 3, 2024, centered on Aqua, Arima Kana, and Kurokawa Akane as they took on a 2.5D stage play for the in-story production “Tokyo Blade.” Excitingly, the production of a third season has already been confirmed, promising more twists and turns for fans.</p> <h2>Whimsical Menus and Exclusive Merchandise</h2> <p>Following the “Western Fairy Tale Arc” which ran until August 24, the collaboration shifts gears to a traditional Japanese theme. Ai, Aqua & Ruby, Arima Kana, MEMcho, Kurokawa Akane, and Himekawa Daiki are now making their debut in charming Japanese folk tale attire at the ORBcafe collaboration cafe, titled “Otogibanashi” (Fairy Tales).</p> <p>The exclusive collaboration menu for the “Japanese Folk Tale Arc” features a delightful array of themed dishes and drinks, carefully crafted to reflect the new aesthetic. Highlights include the “Aqua’s Ryuuguu Seafood Set Meal,” “Ruby’s Issun Boushi-style Onigiri Chazuke” (rice ball in tea soup), “Arima Kana’s Irodori Yasai no Ori Kakiage” (colorful vegetable tempura), “Ai’s Tennyo Hagoromo Ichigo Daifuku Set” (strawberry mochi in heavenly maiden’s robe style), and “Kurokawa Akane’s Yuki Mau Koorigashi” (snow-dancing shaved ice). For beverages, there’s “Ai’s Original Yuzu Soda, Wished for the Twins’ Health,” “MEMcho’s Houjicha Tapioca Tea,” and “Himekawa Daiki’s Shiramomo Jelly Soda.”</p> <figure> <img decoding=
