Advance-preview chapters are excluded from the promotion. The free run marks the series' 15th anniversary and the release of volume 29. Gangan ONLINE announced the dates on X on November 5, 2026, and asked readers to name their favorite chapter under the hashtag #Motenai 15th Anniversary All Chapters Free. Nico Tanigawa reposted the announcement on November 11 and wrote that reading the whole run in two days would be tough, so a casual look would be welcome. The manga follows Tomoko Kuroki, a high school girl whose hopes of a popular life do not go as planned. It still runs on Gangan ONLINE, where chapters are counted as \"mourning\" and the latest is Mourning 244.","whyItMatters":"The promotion ties a 72-hour free window to volume 29 and a 15th anniversary, and the author's own post frames it as a browse rather than a full read, which tells you how Square Enix is positioning a long-running series at a volume milestone.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe free window opened on the app on November 12 and closes November 14, and advance-preview chapters sit outside it.
