The anime adaptation has aired at least its first three episodes, with reviews and community scores now in. The manga, which has 12 compiled volumes, is serialized in Kodansha's Weekly Shonen Magazine and was on a health-related break with a return scheduled for June 3.
The anime adaptation of Muchimaro's four-panel manga moved through a steady pre-broadcast rollout: a July premiere window and lead casting, then supporting cast, then a September 18 second promo revealing the ending theme, then an October 3 premiere on Tokyo MX, BS11, Gunma TV, and Tochigi TV. Aniplex USA posted an English-subtitled trailer and said the series streams on OceanVeil the same day. Naoyuki Tatsuwa directs at Passione, with Ryo Imamura on character design and chief animation direction and Masahiro Yokotani overseeing series scripts.
Reviews of the opening episodes split. A first-three-episodes review credits Muchimaro's background as a fetish artist for a comedy where the student council girls are the perverts and the male lead is the straight man, while community scores slide from 4.2 for episode 1 to 3.6 by episode 3. A separate review of episodes 1 and 2 argues the suggestive content aimed at teenage characters undercuts a comedy that could have worked on its awkward personalities, citing a teacher's remark, a student flashing his nipples, a council member bare-hand spanking a classmate, and a knee to the crotch that draws blood.
Before the broadcast, the manga took a break in Weekly Shonen Magazine due to Muchimaro's health, with a return scheduled for the 27th issue on June 3. The announcement noted the artist's health was improving. The manga launched in 2022, has 12 compiled volumes, and won the print category of the ninth Next Manga Awards in 2023. Seven Seas ships the first English volume on September 8.

Anime Feminist's review of episodes 1 and 2 follows Ume Mizunoe, a student repeating a year who joins his school's student council at his homeroom teacher's suggestion.
