Tell me, what overworked employee wouldn't want to wake up one day and find that instead of a mountain of work and the struggle to survive, they were facing the familiar desk from high school?
Jiang Misheng did it. She woke up and really had become a high schooler.
But she'd become a high schooler in a 2D world.
In her previous life, she was an editor for adult manga. It didn't take long for her to add a side job to her studies, guided by the girl sitting beside her, Sakura Chiyo.
Little Jiang Misheng (the Japanese version of Jiang Misheng): Hey! Nozaki! What's with this scrawny body? Characters need to have some meat on their bones! Get it? Some meat! Sex appeal!
Nozaki Umetaro: But they're still in high school...
Little Jiang Misheng: Are you an idiot?! How is your manga supposed to sell? The point is to get readers horny! People are animals who live for sex. What makes your heart race? Hormones. And what are hormones for? Sex! Sex!
Nozaki Umetaro: Master, I understand!
Two weeks later, Sword Bro called Nozaki, a rare occurrence. "Hey, Nozaki, you do understand that this is all-ages, right?" (Furious.)
Little Jiang Misheng: Are you an idiot? What's the point of all-ages? The important thing is sex...
Nozaki Umetaro (covering her mouth): No! Sword Bro! Let me explain!
Little Jiang Misheng, who was already twenty-four, also found the youth she'd lost to endless exam prep here, though she was forced to.
Here's what happened. Sakura Chiyo was taking her to watch some tennis club practice.
Sakura Chiyo: Huh? Aren't you going to cheer?
Little Jiang Misheng: What am I supposed to cheer for?
Sakura Chiyo: Like, "Lord Yukimura, I love you!" or something.
Little Jiang Misheng: ?
Sakura Chiyo: Like, "Lord Yukimura, I want to have your babies!" or something.
Little Jiang Misheng: ??
Sakura Chiyo: Like, "Lord Yukimura, please use your perfect tennis skills to pin me beneath you!" or something.
Little Jiang Misheng: ?????
That day, for the first time in either of her two lives, Little Jiang Misheng showed off her track-and-field talent.
Little Jiang Misheng: How do I survive in another world?
Kusuo Saiki, who suddenly appeared behind her: You've come to the right person.
Seiichi Yukimura realized that the little shadow who'd always been willing to follow him around had suddenly disappeared.
And by the time he noticed, a lot of new friends had inexplicably appeared at her side.
For example, a tall, broad-shouldered boy with a fierce gaze and short hair, a red-haired playboy, and the prince of the school.
And then there was a certain ordinary pink-haired guy, unremarkable in every way... What was his name again?
When Yukimura saw his little shadow heading home from tennis practice with the tall, broad-shouldered boy with the fierce gaze, he smiled faintly and beat his opponent so thoroughly that they couldn't get back up. Then he kept beating him, over and over, like he was torturing him.
The next day, Little Jiang Misheng was told she'd become the tennis club manager.
Little Jiang Misheng: ...Senior Kashima! Please tell me how to sneak out of school without anyone noticing, aaah!
One month later.
Nozaki Umetaro: Hmm, it's about time to add some new characters. Who should I use as a model?
Little Jiang Misheng bursts through the door: Nozaki! Seiichi Yukimura asked me out tomorrow! What should I do?
Nozaki Umetaro: I think you absolutely have to go! And afterward, tell me how it went.
Little Jiang Misheng: ?
Sakura Chiyo, Hori Masayuki, and Mikoshiba Mikoto: Act like a human being, Nozaki!
1. The CP is Yukimura. All the main characters from The Prince of Tennis have been moved to high school, and the settings from Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun and The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. have also been moved to Rikkai University Affiliated High School.
2. The Prince of Tennis plot isn't covered, only the first season of Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun and the animated storylines of The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. Saiki will show up quite late.
3. It's probably just ordinary school life. No killing, and no more match writing, just a group of all kinds of Japanese high schoolers getting through their three years of high school.
4. It'll probably be fairly short, but I haven't written an outline yet. It's just a plan for now.
Please add this to your follows!
