The manga is based on the title story from the fourth novel in the Sakurako-san no Ashimoto ni wa Shitai ga Umatteiru series.
Another manga based on the light novel series, simply titled Sakurako-san no Ashimoto ni wa Shitai ga Umatteiru, began in Kadokawa’s Young Ace in August 2015 and is ongoing.
This year’s September issue Kadokawa’s Monthly Shōnen Ace magazine published the final chapter of Keu Ayamine’s Sakurako-san no Ashimoto ni wa Shitai ga Umatteiru: Chō wa Jūichigatsu ni Kieta (A Corpse is Buried Under Sakurako’s Feet.: Butterfly Vanished in November) manga on Wednesday.
Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired and Sentai Filmworks released the series on home video in North America under the title Beautiful Bones -Sakurako’s Investigation-.
