Draw This, Then Die!

Ai Yasumi's love for manga inspires her to start creating stories of her own.

Ai draws manga for the first time in order to convince Teshima-sensei to become the manga club's advisor.

While on the search for a third manga club member, Ai comes across Kokoro, an introvert with a talent for art.

Ai and Kokoro begin a long process of trial and error as they try and create their first manga as a club.

The Manga Research Club decides to release a manga at Comitia, but first they must get through final exams.

Comitia is finally here, and the members of the Manga Research Club learn how hard it is to sell doujinshi.

On the ferry back from Tokyo, Rei remembers her time as a manga artist assistant while pursuing serialization.

The Manga Research Club explores the island of Oshima in hopes of finding inspiration for Ai's next manga.

At the end of summer, after receiving advice from Ishiryu for the next Comitia, Ankai and Fujimori decided to collaborate on a four-panel comic and
start posting it on social media. The two were nervous about their manga being shared with the whole world, but they felt encouraged by the positive reactions. However, when the number of "likes" began to stagnate, Ankai started to wonder if her manga was even interesting.

It's school festival season. The manga club is going to participate in the festival, but Ishiryu is not enthusiastic. Meanwhile, Akabuku praises the manga that Ishiryu is serializing on social media, but Ishiryu is indifferent. Since childhood, Ishiryu's mother has taught him that "90% of everything is rubbish." However, Akabuku doesn't seem to care.
