Manga
Written and illustrated by Rui Takato [ja], Booty Royale: Never Go Down Without a Fight! was first serialized in Nihon Bungeisha's Bessatsu Manga Goraku [ja] from April 25, 2014,[4] to December 25 of that same year, when the magazine ceased its publication.[5] The manga was then transferred over to Manga Goraku Special [ja], where it began serialization on March 10, 2015.[6] The magazine last print issue was released on July 15, 2020,[7] and went online starting on August 15 of that same year.[8][9] Nihon Bungeisha has collected its chapters into individual tankōbon volumes. The first volume was released on November 19, 2014.[10] As of August 18, 2025, eighteen volumes have been released.[11]
In July 2022, Takato announced on Twitter that he was retiring from drawing manga, though it was unclear whether this was permanent or temporary—his wording suggested both possibilities. He stated that Booty Royale would go on hiatus, citing personal circumstances that made it difficult to continue drawing a manga focused on "boobs and sex." However, he left open the possibility of resuming work if his situation changed. Takato expressed satisfaction with the series as a hybrid "softcore porno" and "battle" manga, noting its consistent sales, but admitted his motivation to continue was low due to production challenges.[12] The last chapter before entering on hiatus was released on September 15, 2022.[13] The series returned from its hiatus on March 15, 2024.[14] Manga Goraku Special ended publication on May 15, 2025, and the series moved to the Goraku Web! [ja] manga website starting on June 20 of that same year.[15][16]
The manga is licensed in North America by Seven Seas Entertainment under their Ghost Ship mature imprint in two-in-one omnibus edition.[2]
A spin-off series, titled Hagure Idol Jigoku-hen Gaiden: Princess Sarah (はぐれアイドル地獄変外伝 プリンセス・セーラ, Hagure Aidoru Jigoku-hen Gaiden Purinsesu Sēra), was serialized on the online platform Goraku Egg in 2015.[17] Its chapters were collected in a single volume released on February 19, 2016.[18]
