Hirayasumi vol. 1:
The manga has been serialized in Weekly Big Comic Spirits (published by Shogakukan) since April 2021, and has surpassed 1.1 million copies in cumulative circulation. VIZ Media describes the series as follows:
At 29 years old, carefree Hiroto Ikuta doesn’t have a girlfriend, a full-time job, or a plan for the future—and he couldn’t be happier. Hiroto’s breezy attitude isn’t easy for everyone to understand, though. In a world filled with anxiety, confusion, and grief, Hiroto and the people who surround him are all just doing their best to figure out this thing called life.
