The anime world is buzzing, and There's No Freaking Way I'll be Your Lover! Unless… Manga's 1st Part Ends, 2nd Part Debuts in Early 2027 has become the centre of attention. With fans across the globe debating every detail, this latest update is one that no otaku will want to miss.
The Story So Far
Shueisha's Young Jump+ platform published the final chapter of the first part of Musshu's manga adaptation of Teren Mikami's There's No Freaking Way I'll Be Your Lover! (Watashi ga Koibito ni Nareru Wake Naijan, Muri! or WATANARE) yuri romantic comedy novel series on July 31.
The 10th compiled book volume will ship in December, and the final volume will ship in 2027. Eru Kudō also disclosed on Sunday they will draw the second part of the manga adaptation under the title Watashi ga Koibito ni Nareru Wake Naijan, Muri! The second part launches in January or February 2027.
Seven Seas is releasing the novels and its manga adaptation in English, and it describes the narrative: Renako Amaori is leaving her awkward and lonely junior high school life behind, determined to become a normal girl with normal friends in high school. Glamorous, confident Mai Ouzuka is Renako's total opposite: wealthy, outgoing, and a literal fashion model.
Against the odds, the two girls form an immediate connection. Renako thinks she may have found the best friend of her dreams…until Mai's romantic confession sends her into a tailspin. Renako wants to prove to Mai that being BFFs is better than being girlfriends, but Mai is dead set on convincing Renako that they're destined to be lovers.
