Hamada and Takeshi Sesimo launched their Shimazaki in the Land of Peace (Heiwa no Kuni no Shimazaki e) manga in Kodansha's Morning magazine in August 2022. Kodansha published the manga's sixth compiled book volume on July 23. Kodansha USA Publishing licensed the manga, and will begin releasing it in English in September.
The manga was ranked fifth in the list for male readers in the 2024 edition of Takarajimasha's Kono Manga ga Sugoi! (This Manga Is Amazing!) guidebook last year, and was nominated for the 17th Manga Taisho awards earlier this year.
