Takeshi Takadera (Laid-Back Camp, Oshi no Ko, To Your Eternity) is the sound director.

The Spain-based Monogatari Novels company had announced in October 2023 that it had licensed the light novel series for English release under the title Rich Girl Caretaker: I’m Secretly the Caregiver of the Most Popular Girl in This Rich Kid School. Amazon is currently listing that the first English volume shipped on March 3, 2026, but lists that the work is out of print. The company’s X/Twitter account post in May 2025 stated, “Due to some issues with customs as a result of the new tariffs the current release dates for our titles are undertermined.” The company’s website is not currently accessible.
The Amazon listing for the first volume describes the story:
A high school boy, Itsuki Tomonari, gets involved in a kidnapping and ends up taking care of Hinako Konohana, a young lady from one of Japan’s largest conglomerates.
On the surface, Hinako seems to be a brilliant and charming girl, but in reality, she is a lazy girl with no life skills. However, due to family reasons, Hinako has to play the role of the “perfect young lady” at school. Wanting to protect her, Itsuki takes care of her in a very caring manner. Eventually, Hinako begins to fawn on Itsuki with all her might… “Now…if Itsuki isn’t around, I would hate it.”
This is a love story that begins with a cute young lady with a gap that transcends the master-servant relationship.
J-Novel Club is releasing Sakaishi’s novel series The Holy Knight’s Dark Road in English.
