Actor Mikiya Sanada is directing the film, and artist Hilcrhyme's three new original songs will be used in the film.

The manga centers on Nachi Hiyama, a middle school softball player. The story begins when she learns the secret of her classmate Utsumi — that he has a small pig-like tail. The story follows the bond between the two people over the course of 10 years.

Sahara launched the series in Monthly Comic Zenon in March 2018, and ended the manga in June 2021. Coamix published the manga's fourth and final compiled book volume in July 2021.
