Artist Akagawara also shared an illustration to commemorate the announcement:
Yen Press licensed the manga, and it describes the story:
Modern life means modern solutions—even to supernatural problems. So of course the government would have a classification system, special schools, and licenses for people with mysterious powers. Any manifestation of a miracle is enough to be called a Himiko, but only those with full certification may use the title of god. And high schooler Nagi is in serious need of a god! The death of her grandmother has left her family shrine devoid of the necessary divinity, and her hopelessly shut-in Himiko brother isn't looking promising. But if Nagi isn't careful, her search for a god might end with her finding more than she bargained for...
Hyuganatsu (The Apothecary Diaries) and Akagawara debuted the manga in Hakusensha's Hana to Yume magazine in August 2021. Hakusensha published the manga's 15th compiled book volume on Friday. The novel adaptation launched in January 2022. Star Seas Company published the novels' fifth volume in Japan on May 27.
Hyuganatsu began serializing The Apothecary Diaries (Kusuriya no Hitorigoto) light novel series on the "Shōsetsuka ni Narō" (Let's Become Novelists) website in October 2011. Shufunotomo began publishing the novels in print volume with illustrations by Touko Shino in August 2014. The novels have inspired a manga and an anime adaptation.
