Your Definitive Update on the Cozy Rom-Com Craze
There’s so much for fans of heartwarming romance and slice-of-life anime to celebrate! The popular The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten light novel series (Japanese: Otonari no Tenshi-sama ni Itsunomanika Dame Ningen ni Sareteita Ken) is back with the release of its highly anticipated Volume 12 — and that’s not all.

📚 Light Novel Vol. 12: What’s New?
Volume 12, which deals with the story that is written by Saekisan and illustrated by Hanekoto, was published on March 14, 2026 in Japan via SB Creative under its GA Bunko imprint. This new volume — released in both standard and special editions — has cover art featuring my bunny girl waifu, godly Miharu Shiina.
