The manga originally ran in the magazine Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine from September 2010 to November 2011. The name Negiho or "Negiho (Ito) Bun" derives its name from the word "negi" the Japanese word for spring (green) onion.

Negiho had received mixed reviews, Nick Rowe from readcomicbooks.net gave the manga a negative review calling it creepy and an average comedy read that is not kid friendly. Sean Gaffney from mangabookshelf.com said that he felt that the manga was not creepy but went on to say "Who was this written for" citing that "I can’t imagine fans of the original, especially in the West, being enthralled by preschool comedy adventures"
