Unhappy♪ Manga Gets Anime Adaptation

Written By Samantha Ferreira

It’s a happy day for Unhappy♪ fans!

The latest issue of Manga Time Kirara Forward revealed that Cotoji’s Unhappy♪ manga will receive a televised anime adaptation. At the moment, no further details are available.

Unhappy - Manga Time Kirara Forward 201508 Issue Cover - 20150622

Unhappy♪ is a four-panel comedy series that began running in the February 2013 issue of Manga Time Kirara Forward. The series is set in Class 1-7 of Tennogofune Academy. This particular class is a home for students with “negative karma.”

In plain English, it’s a class for the truly unlucky.

It’s in this class, though, that Hibari finds herself. On the first day of school, she meets Hanako, a girl plagued with the most horrific of luck, and the perennially sickly Botan. Together, the three try to find a way to make the best of their existence, by turning their school life into a happy one.

Even today, writers cling to the fossilized misbelief that books are the end-all-be-all of our careers. The problem is, nobody reads books. In 2023, only 54% of Americans read even one.
