Hiroshi Fukuda’s Rock is a Lady’s Modesty manga is going on a break, but we don’t yet know when to expect its return. The announcement came through this year’s 14th issue of Hakusensha’s Young Animal magazine, which stated that it will take a break “for a while.”
The series first kicked off in the magazine back in October 2022 and has been collected in seven volumes as of March 2025. It also inspired an anime adaptation that kicked off in April. Shinya Watada (Aikatsu Stars!) directs, with Ori Yasukawa (episodes of Migi & Dali) as assistant director, Shogo Yasukawa (Food Wars!) on scripts and Risa Miyadani (Wonderful Precure! movie) handling character designs for the BN Pictures production.
The Rock is a Lady’s Modesty manga follows a young girl named Ririsa Suzunomiya, who is thrust into a wealthy lifestyle and forced to give up playing guitar after her mother remarries a real estate tycoon. While attending her prestigious new school, though, she happens to meet a skilled drummer. Thus the pair decide to form a band, reigniting Ririsa’s passion for rock.
Yen Press licensed the manga and plans to publish the first volume, featuring translation by Ajani Oloye, on September 23. Here’s the official description:
After being forced to attend an all-girls’ school, Ririsa Suzunomiya stumbles upon her ladylike peers jamming out.
