The manga went on a half-year hiatus in May 2021 to change publishers to Akita Shoten and then resumed in Dokodemo Young Champion in October 2021, ending shortly after with Akita Shoten publishing a new eighth volume in November 2021. Akita Shoten then began re-releasing the manga's first seven volumes in June 2022.

Synopsis

Naoe-kun, a masseur, is about to go home at the end of the day when he is put in charge of a rather strange patient. This lovely lady has green eyes, pointy ears and grew up in the woods – everything about her screams “elf” except for one thing: her voluptuous body. Turns out she left her world, but loves junk food in this one, and now her obsession has caught up with her. Can Naoe-kun help this adorable elf lose weight – and keep it off?

Finally, the publisher is also releasing new editions of the manga with new covers.
