Writer Hajime Kamoshida has announced in the afterword of Seishun Buta Yarō wa Santa Claus no Yume o Minai (Rascal Does Not Dream of Santa Claus), the 13th volume in his Seishun Buta Yarō light novel series, that the series is entering its final arc. The 13th volume was released last Friday.
The light novels revolve around Sakuta Azusagawa, a high school student who encounters the mysterious phenomenon known as Adolescence Syndrome, where individuals manifest unusual abilities related to their subconscious desires and anxieties. Sakuta forms connections with others who are affected by the syndrome, and together they navigate their personal challenges. The story begins with Sakuta meeting Mai Sakurajima, a teenage actress who becomes invisible to the general public due to her own desires.
The series' first novel, Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai (Seishun Buta Yarō wa Bunny Girl-senpai no Yume wo Minai), was published by Kadokawa in April 2014. Yen Press is responsible for the English release, with the 11th volume, Rascal Does Not Dream of a Nightingale, having been published on June 20.
Multiple manga adaptations have been created based on the light novels. These include Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai, Rascal Does Not Dream of Petite Devil Kohai, and Seishun Buta Yarō wa Logical Witch no Yume wo Minai. A new adaptation for the fourth novel, Rascal Does Not Dream of Siscon Idol, is also scheduled for release this year.
The anime adaptation of Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai premiered in Japan in October 2018 and covered the story up to the fifth volume of the light novel series. An anime film titled Rascal Does Not Dream of a Dreaming Girl, which adapted the sixth and seventh novels, was released in Japan in June 2019. Currently, a new sequel anime film project is in development to adapt the eighth and ninth novels.
The franchise has garnered significant popularity, and its recent film, Rascal Does Not Dream of a Sister Venturing Out, achieved impressive ticket sales in its opening weekend. The upcoming film, Rascal Does Not Dream of a Knapsack Kid, is set to be released in Japan during the winter season.
