EROMANGA SENSEI TP #1

(W) Tsukasa Fushimi (A) Rin

Writing light novels isn't all that easy, especially when you're in high school...and you have to do the cooking and the chores for your shut-in stepsister who's hardly come out of her room the past year! In the light novel business, it's crucial to have the right person illustrating your books to help them sell-and maybe get made into manga and anime! But in a world of online pen names, the author and the illustrator may still not even know each other . . . until one day they realize they've been living in the same house all along! Now the home life of confident writer Masamune Izumi and his reclusive sister Sagiri-aka the artist "Eromanga Sensei"-will be a drama to compare with their rising careers, their restive fan base, and their rivals in the industry! o The Eromanga Sensei anime ran on Crunchyroll in 2017-a new anime is out this year! o Vol. 1 contains a bonus short story from original author Tsukasa Fushimi.
