Everyone's Darling Has a Secret

Hizashi Hiruno walks the halls of an ultra-elite high school with a heavy backpack and a lighter secret. By day he fights to keep his grades up among the brightest students, but by night he trades his uniform for stage lights as the idol known simply as Hiruno. Kashiko Amane built this story on the friction between those two lives, showing how the exhaustion of rehearsals clashes with the pressure of exams. The narrative avoids flashy melodrama to focus on the quiet moments where the mask slips, whether it is falling asleep in class or hiding a bruise from practice before a fan photo.

The series launched in Hakusensha's Young Animal magazine before shifting to digital platforms like Manga Park and Young Animal Web in September 2022. As of July 2026, fans have nine tankōbon volumes to explore, each detailing another layer of Hizashi's struggle. Yen Press brought the English edition to bookstores, keeping pace with the Japanese releases so readers do not have to wait long for the next chapter. Kuromiya, a persistent classmate who finds herself drawn to the shy student, adds a romantic thread that complicates his need for secrecy. [edit]
