Manga UP! describes the manga’s story:
Late-twenties office worker Seiya Tonami has made it a routine to get solo drinks every Friday at his favorite standing bar. But when he rescues a college girl from unwanted harassment at said bar, he gains a new drinking companion. Between everyday banter and light venting, there’s now someone by his side to share a laugh with. Cozy up to a heartwarming and slightly tipsy romantic comedy set in a standing bar, where Friday nights become something to look forward to.
The manga launched on Square Enix‘s Manga UP! website in August 2025. The company shipped the second compiled volume of the manga on June 5.
