A Couple of Cuckoos is based on the romantic comedy manga by Miki Yoshikawa, which began in 2020 in Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine and has 27 tankobon volumes as of April 2025. Kodansha USA describes the manga as:
16-year-old super-studier Nagi Umino, second-year student at the Meguro River Academy high school, was switched at birth. On his way to a dinner to meet his birth parents, he accidentally meets the brash, outspoken, Erika Amano, who is determined to make Nagi her fake boyfriend as she never wants to actually marry. But once Nagi makes it to dinner, he finds his parents have decided to resolve the hospital switch by conveniently having him marry the daughter his birth parents raised…who turns out to be none other than Erika herself!
The first season aired in 2022.
