With eight tankōbon volumes released by September 2025, the manga has established a fanbase. The anime debut is anticipated by many. Initial visual reveals have been provided, offering glimpses into the character designs and the overall tone that have defined 'Super Psychic Policeman Chojo' since its beginning. As 2026 approaches, further production details and the exact release date are awaited for this addition to the shōnen police genre.
