The official X (formerly Twitter) account for Osamu Nishi's Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun series announced on Wednesday that Atsu Tsudanuma's spinoff series Makai no Shuyaku wa Wareware da! (The Protagonist of the Demon World is Us) will end its serialization due to difficult circumstances relating to the reorganization of the "◯◯ no Shuyaku wa Wareware da" (We are the Main Characters of ◯◯!) YouTuber group.
The series is connected to the main series, as well as the "◯◯ no Shuyaku wa Wareware da" YouTuber group. The series will finish the serialization of Teufel Shaoron and his Our Battler club's story up to volume 22, and the "Tonton no Sо̄danmeshi no Yoakeze yo" (Daybreak of the Advisory Meal) story will conclude in one compiled book volume.
Tsudanuma launched the collaborative series in Akita Publishing's Shōnen Champion magazine in January 2020. Akita Publishing shipped the 19th compiled book volume on September 6.

(We are the Main Characters of ◯◯!) are a group of video creators who upload "Let's Play" (footage of members of the group playing games with commentary) videos on Nico Nico Video and YouTube.

The group has since made videos on other video games and tabletop games.
