The manga adapts Yui Tokiumi’s spinoff novel series for Yuki Suetsugu’s Chihayafuru manga.
This year’s 20th issue of Kodansha’s Be-Love magazine announced on Saturday that a Chihayafuru spinoff manga titled Chihayafuru Chūgakusei-hen (Chihayafuru Middle School Arc) in the next issue on October 13.
The manga has inspired two 25-episode television anime series and two live action films, and a third live-action film will open next year.
Additionally, the 22nd volume of the manga bundled an original anime DVD when it shipped in September 2013.
