The short gag manga is about the love of famous works of literature. It follows Sawako "Miss Bernard" Machida, a lazy girl who wants to be a well-read person — but does not actually read much. The manga recounts the conversations between "Miss Bernard" and her bookworm friends about the Bible, The Tale of the Heike, Guns, Germs, and Steel, The Door into Summer, The Great Passage, Fermat's Last Theorem, and more masterpieces that she has not necessarily read.

Where it came from
Miss Bernard said. is a Japanese anime television series produced by Dream Creation and animated by Creators in Pack, released in 2016. The series is based on a manga of the same name by Kyuusei Shihonshugi, which began serialization in 2012. The narrative centers on Sawako Machida, a girl who pretends to be a well-read bibliophile to appear sophisticated, despite having little actual interest in reading, resulting in a series of lighthearted, observational vignettes about literary culture and the act of reading.
The adaptation was directed by Masayoshi Hiraike, who aimed to translate the manga's four-panel structure into a short-form anime format, typically consisting of three-minute episodes. The series is known for its meta-humor and references to classic literature, reflecting the original work's playful exploration of book snobbery and the habits of library-goers. While niche in its appeal, it was received as a charming curiosity for viewers interested in books and bibliophilic tropes.
