Himouto! Umaru-chan (干物妹!うまるちゃん?, Himōto! Umaru-chan) is a Japanese manga series by Sankaku Head. It began serialization in Shueisha's seinen manga magazine Weekly Young Jump on March 14, 2013. It has been collected in nine tankōbon volumes. An alternative version was serialized for two chapters in Shueisha's monthly magazine Miracle Jump in 2012. An anime television series adaptation by Doga Kobo ran in Japan from July 9 to September 24, 2015. A video game was released for the PlayStation Vita on December 3, 2015. A second season of the anime series has been announced for fall 2017.

The series follows Umaru Doma, a high school girl who lives with her older brother Taihei. At school, Umaru appears to be the ideal student with good looks, top grades, and a lot of talent. Once she gets home, however, she reverts into a layabout who spends her time lying around, playing video games, and constantly depending on her older brother, much to his dismay. Over the course of the series, Umaru's alternative personalities help her become friends with her female classmates Kirie Motoba, who has a reputation of glaring at people; and Sylphynford Tachibana, her competitive school rival; both of whom turn out to be little sisters of Taihei's coworkers.


The manga first appeared in Shueisha's monthly magazine Miracle Jump in 2012 for two chapters: first in the 10th issue on August 16 and again in the 11th issue on October 16. It was then serialized in Weekly Young Jump from March 14, 2013. Nine tankōbon volumes have since been published. A spin-off focused on Nana Ebina, tentatively titled "Akita Imokko! Ebina-chan" (秋田妹!えびなちゃん?, lit. Akita Native Little Sister Ebina) that will run on Niconico Seiga website and other platforms after ranked first on the website's popularity poll.
