KADOKAWA Corporation released the manga 'Kareshi no Onnatomodachi ga Guigui Kuru (Watashi ni)' (authored by Amemikuro) on May 21, 2026.

The target of the 'boyfriend's female friend' was, surprisingly, 'me.'

Obsession, manipulation, and salvation—this work is a bold endeavor by author Amemikuro, themed around a 'girl you wouldn't want as your boyfriend's friend,' portraying the relationship between an obsessive girl and a woman in her 30s struggling with self-esteem.

[Synopsis] Mao Takahashi, a woman who lost herself while dependent on an unsupportive boyfriend, encounters a 'friend of her boyfriend' who turns out to be Sayu Shiraishi, a former student she once saved. 'I have been waiting for this day to reunite with you for years.' Unleashing years of obsession, Sayu enters the gaps in Mao's heart. Despite being manipulated, Mao begins to regain her own sense of self.

[Highlights] 1. Relatable Struggles: A delicate portrayal of the realistic anxieties faced by women in their 30s. 2. Intense Characters: The charm of Sayu Shiraishi, whose obsessive nature occasionally veers into madness. 3. A New Challenge: The author's first venture into Yuri manga.
