Missions of Love (Japanese: わたしに××(バツバツ)しなさい!, Hepburn: Watashi ni batsu batsu shinasai!, lit. "Do ×× to me!") is a shōjo manga series by Ema Tōyama. The plot centers around a junior high student named Yukina Himuro. While she is cold and withdrawn, she finds a big secret about Shigure, a guy who is hugely popular with the girls. In order to keep the secret hidden, Yukina orders him to do "missions" with her that involve romance. Yukina feels that the missions will help her novels, but as time passes she begins to question if it is really love developing. Missions of Love appeared as a serial in the monthly manga magazine Nakayoshi from June 10, 2009, to June 3, 2015. Kodansha published the chapters in nineteen bound volumes, from October 6, 2009, to June 12, 2015. In addition to the manga, a drama CD was also released in Japan in 2012. In 2018, a live action film adaptation was released, following a mini manga sequel in Nakayoshi to help promote it. Kodansha's American subsidiary Kodansha USA licensed the series for an English-language translation in North America. All nineteen volumes have since been released over a five-year span. Reception of the English translated series has been mixed to positive, and Missions of Love was in the New York Times Best Seller list twice for two different volumes. In Japan, the series won the Kodansha Manga Award in 2012 for best children's manga. Source: Wikipedia (en)
