Worst remains in print as part of Hiroshi Takahashi's Crows and Worst line, with a Bandai capsule figure set due the third week of November 2026 and the sequel series Dustland running in Young Champion. The separate PC party game Worst Class Ever launched on Steam on November 10, 2026.
Worst is one half of Hiroshi Takahashi's delinquent manga pair, and the most recent coverage is merchandise rather than new manga. Bandai will release the Crows & Worst Capsule Figure Collection in the third week of November 2026 at 500 yen with tax included. The set covers four characters: Harumichi Boya and Ryushin Kunou from Crows, and Toru Kuriko and Tessei Kawauchi from Worst. An earlier story on the same set named Toru Hanaki in place of Kuriko; the later story is the one that stands.
The manga side of the franchise moved forward in June. Takahashi's Dustland, the official sequel to Crows and Worst, released its first volume on June 19. It runs in Young Champion and follows delinquent boy Asada Hibari in the Utsusemi district. Eight figures including actor Shun Oguri and rapper R-Shitei contributed commemorative comments to the volume.
A separate release carries the Worst name without being part of the manga. Funcore Games released the asymmetric party game Worst Class Ever on Steam for PC on November 10, 2026, published by 2P Games. Up to eight players split into one teacher and seven students, with the students hiding among dozens of NPC classmates and completing prank objectives while the teacher patrols. The game costs 985 yen, with a 35% launch discount to 640 yen through November 24. Its demo drew over 1 million downloads and placed first in player count at October's Steam Next Fest, and the full version reached a peak of about 36,000 concurrent players according to SteamDB, holding a Very Positive review status. The release adds ten stage types, a new female teacher character, and Steam Workshop support.
