The comedy centers on Chizuko Date, an otaku girl who lives in a city in Niigata Prefecture. Chizuko is obsessed with Berry Blossom, the magical girl who protects the city.

Sawata launched the manga in 2017 in Shueisha‘s Ribon magazine, and the series ended in December 2022. Shueisha published the manga’s fifth and final compiled book volume in January 2023.
