A New Series Begins in Harta Magazine: Can Aliens Save a Cold Marriage?

KADOKAWA's prestigious manga magazine Harta is back with an unconventional story, as always! In the 133rd issue, published on April 15, 2026, a brand-new series by Chiru Arumi titled Tsuma to Futatabi Koisuru Mission (Mission to Fall in Love with My Wife Again) met its readers. Blending science fiction and romantic comedy, this new work makes a very intriguing start from its very first chapter.
The premise of the series is sure to make fans of the genre smile: Aliens send an exploration team to Earth to study human reproduction methods and emotional bonds. However, this "scientific" mission hits an unexpected dead end when the married couple chosen as subjects find their relationship has completely gone cold. While trying to complete their mission, the aliens are forced to reignite the extinguished spark between these two humans. In other words, we are looking at not just an alien observation, but also a "marriage rescue operation"!
Harta magazine is a platform that has previously hosted masterpieces known for their detailed artwork and original plots, such as Dungeon Meshi and Otoyomegatari. For this reason, expectations for Chiru Arumi's new series are quite high. How the author will handle the complexities of modern relationships through the pure and logic-focused perspective of aliens is the series' biggest point of curiosity. In particular, the effort of an alien who becomes a "guest" in a married man's body to win back his wife's heart seems destined for both funny and emotional moments.
If you are tired of classic romantic comedies and like to see some fantastic elements thrown into the mix, Tsuma to Futatabi Koisuru Mission should definitely be on your radar. In the upcoming chapters of the series, we will see together whether the aliens can solve the complex structure of the "human heart." Let's see if these extraordinary guests will manage to warm up a cold home again! The first chapter of the series is currently available in the April issue of Harta.
