The Whole World Thinks I'm Two-Dimensional

[If this is your first time reading, please check the reading guide below the blurb] * Nishitaka Miyose transmigrated. Wearing a cute animal-print onesie, he found himself standing on a busy street. Above him, mafiosi were flying everywhere; a grade-schooler wearing a voice changer, all sorts of bizarre monsters, and countless other things that could never possibly appear in real life surrounded him. He was sure of it: he had transmigrated into a chaotic mash-up of a manga universe. The good news: he was a nerd, and he knew the plots of these series so well he could recite them from memory. The bad news: he was a nerd, his athletic ability was so poor that knowing the plots was useless, he had no money, and he was even wearing pajamas. Just as he thought the police might take him away for looking suspicious, he noticed a crowd gathering around him. “Wow, it’s Nishitaka Miyose!” “Are you a cosplayer? You look exactly like him, like you’ve stepped straight out of the manga!” “Hey, handsome, do you have a social media account? I want to follow you!” “I’d believe you if you said Nishitaka Miyose himself had come through from the manga!” Nishitaka Miyose: “Come through from the manga...” * “This manga has been running for sixteen years, and you’re the protagonist. I doubt there’s anyone in all of Japan who doesn’t know you. So it’s true: manga characters can really come through into the real world.” “Um, actually, I...” “But the most important thing right now... could you sign something for me? I like you too. I’ve been following this manga for ten years.” [Reading Guide] ① The setting is a chaotic crossover universe. There are many original interpretations, and power levels between different series are not compared. ② The characters are manga characters within manga characters; everyone is fictional. The protagonist and the original manga he stars in are original creations. The work Wheel of Fate does not exist in the real world, qwq. When I have time, I’ll write about the original setting in the bonus-story collection. ③ Because of the setting, everyone has a crush on the protagonist, and the protagonist has feelings for everyone too. The protagonist and everyone else are all good friends, so he ultimately ends up with no one. There’s plenty of romantic tension. This started out in the romance category, but was later reclassified as no-cp. I don’t really feel like it counts as no-cp, but according to Jinjiang’s rules, it does. Think of it as the kind of friendship you see in Jump. Ship whoever you like... ④ The blurb was first saved on 2021.7.29; I have a screenshot. ⑤ Later in the story, I set my standards too high for my current abilities, so I got badly stuck and made extensive revisions. I recommend subscribing chapter by chapter. If it’s not for you, feel free to stop reading in time! No need to tell me if you drop it. ⑥ I change the cover whenever I remember.

Yun Yanqiu is a hidden NPC in the open-world game Wheel of Fate. According to official statistics, since the game launched ten years ago, only eight out of the billions of players around the world have reached 100 affinity with him and earned the title of “Best Friend.” Standing beneath a clear blue sky, Yun Yanqiu finished reading his own wiki page and confirmed that he had transmigrated. His first plan was to go to the five-star hotel next door and book a room for a year. [Where’d you get the money?] “From the gifts players give me for raising their affinity.” [...What the hell, why do these players give you everything?] Their chat with the System took a while. When Yun Yanqiu came to, he found himself surrounded by a crowd. “Is Wheel of Fate running some kind of event? Where did they find such an incredible cosplayer?” “Damn, you’ve reminded me of the time I stayed up all night watching the stars with Yun Yanqiu for five hours and still didn’t gain any affinity...” “Don’t act like you’re hard done by. I’d love to watch the stars with him, but I can never even find him.” “I don’t care, handsome, add me on WeChat! Don’t make me get on my knees and beg you, qwq.” Yun Yanqiu: “Sorry, I have something else to do today. Maybe next time.” “There it is! The classic heartbreaker line! You always use that to toy with us innocent players!” * Yun Yanqiu, the hardest NPC in history to win over, is famously aloof among NPCs too. After another Boss who loved him in vain fell for his charms yet again, they placed a terrible curse on him. To break the curse, Yun Yanqiu came to the real world. [I thought players would be miserable because you’re so hard to win over, but it turns out they’re all masochists. They say they hate Yun Yanqiu, yet they’re completely honest with their bodies and keep voting for you. And in this world you have no one to rely on, so you’ll have to make your own way... Wait, who are you messaging?] “My best friend. Keep talking, I’m listening. You just said I have no one to rely on. What happened next?” [...I’ll leave you to it.] My complete, ready-to-read works No CP: The Boss’s Secret Identities Can Do Anything, Draw a Card, Then Become a Male High School Student Danmei: A Hundred Ways to Save the Sake Brewery with Detective Conan Logic, paired with Gin; The Brewery Boss Wants to Retire Today Too, paired with Hiromitsu; After Failing to Resign, I Got a Happy Ending with My Workaholic Boss, paired with Rei; What’s Wrong with the Way to Get Promoted in the Organization, paired with Matsuda; Detective Conan Life RPG Theme: Saving fate, saving yourself
