Kindergarten Wars manga would have an anime

You Chiba, the mangaka whose portfolio includes notable works such as “Dricam!!”, “Star no Star”, and “Chippoke na Sannin”, launched “Kindergarten Wars” in September 2022. The series continues its serialisation through Shueisha’s digital platform, Shounen Jump Plus, demonstrating consistent popularity amongst readers.

A Noir Tale in an Unexpected Setting

At the heart of this unconventional narrative lies Kindergarten Noir, an elite educational institution catering to the offspring of the world’s most influential figures. The story centres on the enigmatic Convict 999, known as Rita, whose transition from legendary assassin to childcare professional creates a uniquely compelling premise.

Rita’s mission extends beyond traditional childcare duties, as she shoulders the responsibility of protecting her young charges from would-be assassins. Despite her formidable combat prowess, Rita harbours an unexpected vulnerability – an overwhelming weakness for handsome men, adding a layer of complexity to her character.
