From two of the hottest creators in the American manga scene—writer Josh Tierney (World Piece, Iris Complex) and artist JeyOdin (Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol. 1: Get in the Robot, Morty!; Hammer)—comes a story of teen love, school pride, and extracurricular international warfare in Rick and Morty: The Manga Vol 2: After-School Science Club! Morty falls in love at first sight with the new exchange student from Japan—Chigusa—and when she shows him her favorite manga about after-school clubs, he knows just the advisor for his hastily constructed new Science Club: Rick Sanchez.

Brimming with inspiration from their trip (and chased out of the country by the maids who have turned on Rick) the Science Club prepares for their school festival with a maid café of their own making—a science maid café selling questionable concoctions . . .
