Gals Can’t Be Kind to Otaku!? has been serialized in Monthly Comic Zenon (published by Coamix) since August 2021. The manga’s 11th volume is scheduled for release in Japan on October 20, 2025, with the series having now surpassed one million copies in circulation.

Yen Press will begin publishing the English edition of the manga, and describes the series with the following synopsis:

Meet Takuya Seo, an otaku who sits behind the popular gals in class, Ijichi and Amane. As people from different “castes”, you wouldn’t expect them to have much in common. But when their worlds collide over a borrowed eraser, Takuya slips up about his favorite anime, and Amane…is rather quick to correct him. She says she’s not a fan, but her familiarity with the series suggests otherwise. Could she be…a fellow geek?!
