Yoshiru Konogi’s manga series, Eroko-san on the Attack (also known as Shingeki no Eroko-san: Hen’na Onee-san wa Danshikōsei to Nakayoku Naritai), is set to conclude in three more chapters. The announcement was made in this year’s 15th issue of Hakusensha’s Young Animal magazine on Friday.
Overview of the Series
Eroko-san on the Attack began serialization in 2019. The manga follows Shindou Eroko, a 27-year-old NEET (Not in Employment, Education, or Training) who has cultivated a popular online persona as a “horny, big-breasted woman.” When her glasses are on, she’s in “business mode,” but the moment they come off, her lewd “Eroko-san” persona takes over.
The plot thickens when Eroko, running low on cash, takes a job as a handyman. Her first day introduces her to high schooler Hoshi-kun, who is precisely her type. This encounter sparks a series of comedic and often explicit attempts by Eroko to get closer to Hoshi-kun, blurring the lines between her online fantasies and real life. Despite the significant age gap, the series explores their evolving relationship, with Eroko often grappling with societal perceptions and her own insecurities about dating a younger man, even with parental consent.

The manga has been digitally published in English by Comikey since August 24, 2022. Comikey describes the story with the provocative tagline, “Get this thirsty girl a drink!”
