“It’s probably impossible for that washboard to become a familiar.”... more>>

“Go to h**l!”

‘I want the class beauty to serve me,’ is probably a thought that went through anyone’s mind at least once.

But frankly, I wouldn’t recommend it. I, Souta Ashiya, a failure of a magician, turned my classmate, Chikage Fujiwara, into my familiar. She was the progeny of a famous magician, as well as the number one beauty amongst the freshmen whom everyone looks up to.

Eh, you’re jealous? Seriously? Then, how about I hand her over to you? First off, she has far too high expectations of her master. Not to mention, she’s a sore loser and really rebellious, and above all, flat-chested. If you’re really fine with that, then she’s all yours…

Ah, that was just a joke! Spare me, Fujiwara!

—This is a story of how a relationship of servitude evolves into that of mutual love (?)… apparently. <<less

In front of everyone, she is a salt-god, but in front of me, she is so sweet. This is a high school life story between Sato-san and I. <<less

This stands at the forefront of strategy guides to Life (a shitty video game)!... more>>

Life is a bad video game. This commonplace phrase is, unfortunate as it might be, the truth.

After all, Life has no simple, easy rules. The rules it does have are nothing but irrational and unfair. The strong claim that Life has a high level of freedom, but the weak have no choice but to cope with an overwhelmingly disadvantageous design.

That’s why it’s a sh*t game.

Since I, Japan’s leading gamer who has experienced and mastered a multitude of games, say so, there can be no mistake.

— However, that person, on top of having mastered gaming to about the same level as I, declared to me that Life is a god-tier game.

Destined to be a top-tier character, that person is the school’s perfect heroine, Hinami Aoi. And to top it off, she even says she will teach me the rules of Life?

…… Normally, I wouldn’t believe such a thing. However, Hinami Aoi is someone who does not fit into a frame like ‘normal’ at all!

From the winner of the 10th Shogakukan Light Novel Award for Excellence. A low-tier character takes on life’s strategy guide, but with instruction from a pretty girl! <<less

I’ve encountered my ideal protagonist!... more>>

It’s my friend, Hinomori Ryuuga. We’ve become the closest of friends after entering high school.

My first impression of Ryuuga was “This is the kind of protagonist you’d see in something like an anime.” Then, that thought soon changed into conviction.

First of all, this guy almost never talks about his past. Also, he frequently slips out of class. As soon as he comes back, he gets extremely tired, blood comes out from his lips, the sleeves and cuffs of his uniform get torn, and so forth.

Furthermore, there’s always beauties that are surrounding Ryuuga. The one who’s like an idol within the school, Yukimiya Shiori. The cool expert of the sword, Aogasaki Rei. The mysterious transfer student, Elmira McCartney. It’s very tiring for me when these people appear in front of Ryuuga. I have to frantically make a fuss by saying things like “H, hey Ryuga! How did you get acquainted with Yukimiya!”, “W, why did the beautiful swordswoman Aogasaki come to the classroom to specifically meet Ryuga?!”, or “E, E, Elmira! What is it that you see in Ryuga!”

…So why am I doing this? That’s because I, Kobayashi Ichirou, am a pro at being a friend.

My life’s calling is to support Hinomori Ryuuga, the protagonist amongst protagonists, as a close friend character.

—The master of the strongest heroes is even stronger, but now he travels secretly to his apprentices—... more>>

Eisen is a man who raised 100 heroes and saved the world by ending the war with an evil god. He had recovered from the wounds inflicted on his body in the「Other World」in exchange for protecting the heroes. During the times he has been recuperating, the heroes he had saved became successful due to his tutelage and developed the 「Human World」 as leaders of various countries. As a result, each of the hundred heroes reported to their Eisen-sensei whom they admired saying—

“Please, come visit our countries.”

Reading all of these, Eisen one day decided—

“I’m going on a journey around the world and see these places that my apprentices recommended me. It looks fun.”

“It sure sounds fun, Eisen-sensei. So, have you sent your apprentices a letter about this?”

“Nope, everybody’s in a tough position. I’ll just quietly visit and greet them so I won’t be a bother.”

Thus, Eisen the master of heroes, secretly set out on a journey to visit each of his apprentices and to sightsee different countries. <<less

The world revolves around me.... more>>

My name is Sakagami Kagura. I’m incredibly cute, unbelievably intelligent, and my manners are utterly flawless. No diamond in the world could compare to my illustrious beauty. You could say that I simply put the rest of the world to shame with both brains and beauty.

Regrettably, someone such as myself is beset by troubles at every turn, just as a ill-fated protagonist of a story might be. My tendency to attract such misfortune is perhaps my one and only flaw. Mournfully, I sigh, raising my chin slightly so as to better catch the illumination of the streetlights. Even sighing, I must look simply exquisite.

Then, I give the stuffed rabbit in my arms a squeeze and focus my gaze on the two individuals in front of me, the source of my most recent plight. One is a black-haired young woman, the kind that would be idiotic enough to walk the streets this time of night. The other is a quite literally wolf-faced man. Naturally, he has her cornered. A werewolf and his prey.

My duty is to exterminate such horrific, inhuman creatures before they can wreak havoc on human society — using puppets such as this little fellow here…
