Like Inaba’s other spin-off manga, “Karakai Jōzu no (Moto) Takagi-san,” the manga is set after the events of Sōichirō Yamamoto’s “Teasing Master Takagi-san.” The story focuses on the senior daughter two of Nishikata and Takagi, when this girl teased and was teased by the boy sitting next to her in class.

Yen Press is publishing the manga in English and released the 17th compiled book volume on April 18. Yen Press’s description for the manga is as follows:
“Middle school student Nishikata had an affair with his classmate sitting nearby, Takagi. Avoiding her day after day, Nishikata devised revenge plans, but she solved them all with cunning. Despite being teasing, Nishikata never gives up in the fun battle between cunning and youth!”
The manga “Teasing Master Takagi-san” was launched in 2013 in Gessan mini magazine, a companion booklet to Shogakukan’s Gessan (Monthly Shonen Sunday) magazine.
