The series will premiere on Yomiuri TV and NTV on July 7. Natsu Hashimoto, Takashi Ninomiya, and Takahiro Takasugi are penning the scripts. Jun Futamata is composing the music.

The suspense manga's story begins when Jin Saeki, a policeman in Yamanashi Prefecture, arrives at a prominent estate residence in response to a tip, and finds the skeletal remains of 13 children, as well as a mysterious marking. Jūzō Haikawa, the long-missing owner of the estate, immediately becomes the prime suspect. Saeki collaborates with a woman named Kanon Hasumi, who has a connection to Haikawa, and together they search for the truth behind the case. In a parallel story set in Tokyo seven years after the case, a girl with a connection to the mark left on the Haikawa estate runs away from home.

Inoryū and Itō launched the manga in Kodansha's Magazine Pocket app in August 2021, where it is ongoing. Kodansha released the manga's sixth compiled book volume in September, and will release the seventh volume on June 21.

Kodansha USA Publishing is releasing Inoryū and Itō's My Dearest Self with Malice Aforethought (Shinainaru Boku e Satsui o Komete) manga in English. The pair serialized the manga in Kodansha's Young Magazine from the May 2018 issue to the August 2019 issue, and then on the Comic Days service from August 2019 to September 2020. The manga inspired a live-action series in October 2022.
