I Made My Manga Debut After Clearing the Game

Drawn in by the handsome character portraits, a player dives into an otome-style open-world game.

Who knew the handsome guys would be real, but every one she falls for would die!

Player: Heh.

This game keeps provoking me.jpg

Who needs romance? No one is stopping me from saving people!

With her talent, "Infinite Rewinds," letting her cheat, the player, who can barely fight her way out of a paper bag, manages to unlock the hidden ending: a happy ending for everyone!

After collecting the final CG, the player exits the game, completely satisfied.

Then she opens the door and finds herself surrounded by the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5... NPCs she saved.

Player: Oh no, the dimensional wall has broken!

Player: Wait, what do you mean "I'm the protagonist of the manga"?!

One day, a beautifully drawn otome manga suddenly takes Japan by storm.

The heroine is gorgeous, but seems completely out of place in its action-packed world.

Readers have plenty to say about it:

[The heroine is great in every way, she just doesn't quite fit here]

[Each of the side stories could be a perfect hot-blooded shonen manga on its own]

[Why not just make a spin-off?]

They may complain, but they still follow it avidly.

But as the story progresses, everything changes:

[Wait, why is everyone dead? Hold on, the heroine died too?!]

[Huh? The heroine's alive again??]

[No, that's not right!!]

Reader's Guide:

1. The blurb has been extensively revised. The original core idea was characters from the source material watching the story, but it felt like a blow-by-blow account, so I switched to manga spoilers.

2. A crossover setting, mainly featuring Bungo Stray Dogs, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Katekyo Hitman Reborn.

3. The story includes original headcanons and differs from the anime.

4. The main story has an open ending. The bonus chapters will either establish a pairing or offer alternate endings.

5. I'll add more if I think of anything.
