A-Do (Japanese: 亜童, Hepburn: Adō) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Jaku Amano. It began serialization in Kodansha's Monthly Young Magazine in May 2019, and has been compiled into eleven volumes as of July 2025.

The series takes place in a futuristic Japan where, following immigration reforms 25 years prior, tensions are rising between the local population and immigrants. Riko Saeki encounters a boy named Eito after saving him from being hit by a truck. When the two are suddenly attacked while eating at a restaurant, Eito reveals that he can turn parts of his body into a plant-like form. Riko finds herself becoming involved in a government conspiracy, with Eito being one of its targets.
