Yabako Sandrovich and SAAM’s hilarious and heartwarming story follows Hibiki, a teenage girl who loves to eat, as she discovers the world of weightlifting and meets a cast of lovable characters along the way.

“Hibiki is a teenage girl who loves to eat, but when she notices her waistline expanding, she decides to check out the local gym. The gym is full of buff dudes…and Akemi, the student council president?! When Akemi tries to convince Hibiki to take up weight training, Hibiki resists–until she meets pretty boy trainer Machio. Now, Hibiki is willing to do whatever it takes to get fit!”

Sandrovich and MAAM launched the manga on Shogakukan’s web manga site Ura Sunday and on Shogakukan’s Manga ONE app in 2016. The series has since become a fan favorite, with a television anime adaptation and a slew of merchandise.

But that’s not all! Sandrovich and MAAM have also launched two other popular manga series, ST✰R: Strike it Rich (Isshō Senkin) and Kengan Ashura, both of which are available in English.
