Alice, Doko Made mo (Japanese: ありす、宇宙（どこ）までも, Hepburn: Arisu, Doko Made mo; 'Alice, Even in Space') is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kiko Urino. It has been serialized in Shogakukan's seinen manga magazine Weekly Big Comic Spirits since June 2024.

Plot

Alice Asahida, a middle school girl, is admired for her beauty and athletic ability, but struggles academically due to being "semilingual", having lost fluency in both of her parents' languages after their deaths. Because of her language difficulties, she falls behind in school and begins to lose confidence in her future.

Alice's life changes when she meets Rui Inuboshi, a quiet boy with an exceptionally high IQ, who tells her that she can become anything she wants to be. Inspired by his encouragement, Alice decides to pursue the ambitious dream of becoming an astronaut. With Rui's help, she begins to seriously apply herself to studying, gradually improving her academic abilities while rediscovering the joy of learning. She steadily works toward her long-term goal of becoming an astronaut, taking the first steps toward a career in space exploration.
