Kanitan illustrated this manga. Later Kadokawa Shoten serialized the manga and released it under their Kadokawa Sneaker Bunko label. The manga first came in December, 2017 and it has a total of 5 tankobon volumes. The manga is still ongoing so you can expect another season in future if the first season goes well. The company really promoted this manga and light novel greatly. That's why the light novel generated 100 millions sales in Japan.
