Junta Shima wrote and illustrated the romantic comedy Murai no Koi, also known as Murai in Love, on the pages of Media Factory's manga service Gene LINE. The series concluded on June 15 with the seventh and final volume. The work has already inspired an eight-episode live-action adaptation, which aired on Japanese television between April and May 2022.
Murai is a shy, introverted high school student with an unremarkable appearance—long hair, a slouched posture, far from what one might call a beauty standard or even someone worth lingering on... Timidly, he confesses his feelings to the girl he loves, the beautiful and radiant Tanaka, a hardcore otaku who only has eyes for the characters in her games. But she flatly rejects him...
The next morning, Murai returns to school completely transformed—he’s dyed and cut his hair, now sporting the hairstyle of Tanaka’s favorite character! Murai will do anything to charm her and win her attention!
