They walk home together, hold hands, and even secretly meet up for a more carnal kind of pleasure. But there’s one thing off about this blissful relationship: they’re both in love with other people. Hayasaka and Kirishima have agreed to satisfy their urges and find comfort in each other, and everything will end if their feelings are reciprocated by their first choices. But the more time they spend tangled up together—in and out of bed—the messier things get. Lust is easy. Feelings aren’t.\n\n*Source: Seven Seas Entertainment, Vol. 1*","published":{"start_date":"2022-09-23","end_date":null,"start_date_is_estimated":false,"end_date_is_estimated":null},"status":"releasing","is_licensed":true,"content_rating":"suggestive","type":"manga","rating":65.94,"popularity":{"global":{"current":10979,"history":{"1d":11062,"1w":11209,"1mo":11673,"3mo":15328,"6mo":17184,"1y":14007}},"type":{"current":7450,"history":{"1d":7509,"1w":7624,"1mo":8056,"3mo":11300,"6mo":12739,"1y":11341}}},"publishers":[{"name":"ASCII Media Works","type":"Original","note":null},{"name":"Ghost Ship (Seven Seas Entertainment)","type":"English","note":"1 Volume; Ongoing"}],"last_updated_at":"2026-09-08T05:39:41.832Z","source":{"anilist":{"id":149819,"rating":6.3,"rating_normalized":63},"anime_planet":{"id":"watashi-nibanme-no-kanojo-de-ii-kara","rating":3.8,"rating_normalized":76},"anime_news_network":{"id":null,"rating":null,"rating_normalized":null},"kitsu":{"id":65044,"rating":null,"rating_normalized":null},"manga_updates":{"id":"9ybo3wk","rating":5.89,"rating_normalized":59},"my_anime_list":{"id":152005,"rating":6.53,"rating_normalized":65},"shikimori":{"id":152005,"rating":6.65,"rating_normalized":67}},"rating_count":411,"final_volume":3,"total_chapters":13,"titles":[{"language":"en","traits":["official"],"title":"I’m Fine With Being the Second Girlfriend","is_primary":true},{"language":"ja-Latn","traits":["native"],"title":"Watashi, Nibanme no Kanojo de Ii kara.","is_primary":true},{"language":"ru","traits":[],"title":"Я буду твоей второй девушкой","is_primary":true},{"language":"ja","traits":["native"],"title":"わたし、二番目の彼女でいいから。","is_primary":true},{"language":"zh-hk","traits":[],"title":"我當備胎女友也沒關係。","is_primary":true}],"cover":{"raw":"https://images.mangabaka.dev/a/9/d/2/0/d/e/7/9800/462b/8822/4bf42cda20af","x150":"https://cdn.mangabaka.dev/imgproxy/plain/x150@1/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWFnZXMubWFuZ2FiYWthLmRldi9hLzkvZC8yLzAvZC9lLzcvOTgwMC80NjJiLzg4MjIvNGJmNDJjZGEyMGFm","x250":"https://cdn.mangabaka.dev/imgproxy/plain/x250@1/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWFnZXMubWFuZ2FiYWthLmRldi9hLzkvZC8yLzAvZC9lLzcvOTgwMC80NjJiLzg4MjIvNGJmNDJjZGEyMGFm","x350":"https://cdn.mangabaka.dev/imgproxy/plain/x350@1/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWFnZXMubWFuZ2FiYWthLmRldi9hLzkvZC8yLzAvZC9lLzcvOTgwMC80NjJiLzg4MjIvNGJmNDJjZGEyMGFm","blurhash":"|hO{~;_NyDM{t7WBxuRjWVV@xbRjRjoeS2t7ayWWkDniofR*bbbHoLWVe.WBWBofWBkWofWBf5ofxvWBWBoyoJoLRjj]WXxtjrWYRkoLafRjoyj?bbRjadn%a#ayofj[j[t7WBWBn%ofayaya#ayxaWUR*t7a}WCoeayWV","width":1801,"height":2560},"anime":{"exists":false,"start":null,"end":null}}}
