The anime adaptation was first announced in March 2025. The manga is currently serialized in Manga Action and Web Action, both published by Futabasha. The latest volume, Volume 7, will be released on October 8.
Omoi publishes an English-language version of the series, and describes the story as follows:
Shun was the star of his middle school’s soccer team, until an injury forced him to give up on his dream. Now in high school, he’s adrift, with no real interests or passions … until he meets his oddball upperclassman Naoki. She ropes him into joining her unofficial “Hyper-Epic Heading Home Club,” a club with only one member dedicated to turning every walk home into an adventure. As Shun follows Naoki through her flights of fancy in search of elaborate detours, secret treasures, and anything else that catches her attention, can the Heading Home Club bring color back to his drab everyday life?
