About the New Serialization 'Since My Admired Senpai Has Fallen into Ruin, I Will Become His Caretaker'

This work is a BL comedy depicting the mismatched cohabitation of a 'lethargic senior with zero life skills' and a 'meddlesome, clumsy junior.'

One day, university student Hiroki Kaibara's apartment is suddenly invaded by his high school junior, Ren Ogata. Ren, who held a strong admiration for Hiroki during high school, entered the same university solely with the desire to 'be near my senpai.' However, upon reuniting, he finds Hiroki living in a desolate, messy room, leading a lethargic life with absolutely zero ability to take care of himself—a completely changed figure...

Deeply shocked by the gap from his ideal 'oshi senpai,' Ren resolves to take care of him like a pushy wife in order to return Hiroki to his former shining high school self. However, Ren himself has a clumsy nature and struggles with life skills. Cleaning and cooking don't go perfectly, making their life together noisy and unpredictable.

While being pushed around by his sloppy senior, Ren finds joy in the everyday life spent with his idol. On the other hand, Hiroki also begins to realize a feeling that, while troublesome, isn't strangely unpleasant.

It is a slice-of-life comedy with standalone episodes where the relationship between the two, starting as caretaker and charge, gradually changes.

[Highlights of the Work]

A classic yet fresh combination of a meddlesome junior and a lethargic senior

The charm lies in the relationship woven by two contrasting characters: a junior who earnestly tries to serve, and a sloppy, paced senior. It's an easy-to-read, episodic comedy that adds elements of cohabitation to the classic senior-junior dynamic.

A slapstick cohabitation comedy starting from a forced move-in

In their sudden life together, every aspect of daily life—cleaning, meals, lifestyle habits—turns into a commotion. Readers can enjoy the fast-paced banter and comical developments.

Frustratingly adorable 'Jire-Kyun' relationship depiction

The distance between the two gradually closes as emotions like admiration, caring, reliance, and confusion intersect. The process of progressing from less-than-romance generates excitement.
