Atsushi Okada, creator of Nyankees, launched a new manga titled Tataki the Side Hustle in Shogakukan's Manga ONE service on May 30. The story follows three young men working at a laundry service who adopt heroic alter egos to take on criminals as a dangerous side job.
Okada's previous series Nyankees ran in Monthly Shonen Ace from 2016 to 2019 and received an English release through Yen Press. He also serialized Sosei Yugi (Twin Game) in Kodansha's Weekly Young Magazine from 2021 to 2022. Tataki the Side Hustle is his first new manga since that title ended, and it shifts his publishing base from Kadokawa's magazine line to Shogakukan's digital Manga ONE service.
