Kodansha will release “My Idol Sits the Next Desk Over!” Volume 1 for digital purchase on January 4, 2022. Volume 2 will be released on February 1, 2022.

Synopsis: Chiro-chan is a world-class idol...at least, to Sakiko Manaka, your run-of-the-mill hard-core idol fan. So when Chiro—real name Chihiro—ends up sitting next to her in school, Sakiko's world is turned upside-down, and all her brain cells vanish. After all, how can she concentrate when her absolute fav is just inches away?! But she needs to be on her A-game, because she may not be the only one who is totally gaga for Chihiro...

Known in Japan as “Oshi ga Tonari de Jugyou ni Shuuchuu Dekinai!”, the drama manga is currently being serialized by Comic Days and has four volumes released.
