The original gag manga centers on a young female ninja named Chidori, whose dream is to help the Warring States-era warlord Oda Nobunaga to achieve his goals. Shigeno launched the manga in Young Animal magazine in 2008, and Hakusensha published the manga's 12th compiled volume in August. Hakusensha will publish the 13th volume on March 29.
