My Cursed Technique Is a Boyfriend Gacha

*

Nanaio has an incurable case of lovesickness.

The bad news: Her lovesickness is so deeply rooted that nothing can cure it.

The good news: She has a magical boyfriend gacha machine.

*

Her first gacha boyfriend is Mahato of the Golden Land, a great demon and one of the Seven Sages of Destruction from another world.

Demons have no heart or feelings. His heart is as cold as stone, impossible to warm.

He will never fall in love with her.

Nanaio has no choice but to give up with regret.

*

Her second gacha boyfriend is a young Six Eyes raised deep within the estate.

The Six Eyes was raised on a pedestal from childhood. Ill-tempered and ignorant of the ways of the world, he speaks coldly to her and constantly calls her an idiot and a moron.

He will never fall in love with her.

Nanaio runs away in tears.

*

Her third gacha boyfriend is a Cursed Spirit Manipulator with a rare technique.

Gentle, considerate, and understanding, he seems like the ideal boyfriend to Nanaio.

Until he transfers to Jujutsu High and introduces her to his best friend, the Six Eyes.

The young Six Eyes looks at her with a strange, obsessive intensity.

After that, her boyfriend grows thinner and thinner, and his expression toward Nanaio gradually turns cold.

"Monkey."

Nanaio hears her boyfriend call her that.

He doesn't love her anymore.

Nanaio tearfully cuts off their relationship.

*

Her fourth gacha boyfriend is the Heavenly Restriction Tyrant, who became a curse after dying.

Nanaio asks, "Do you love me?"

The Heavenly Restriction Tyrant smirks and bluntly tells her that wherever the money is, that's where his love is.

Nanaio feels heartbroken.

That isn't real love.

The lovesick Nanaio draws a fifth gacha boyfriend.

The legendary King of Curses, Ryomen Sukuna.

Nanaio asks, "Do you love me?"

The arrogant, rude King of Curses looks down at her and says, "Foolish."

Nanaio cradles Sukuna's face, tears welling in her eyes, her expression sorrowful.

She casts the "All Things to Gold" spell.

The King of Curses, who once stood at the pinnacle of jujutsu, becomes a lifeless golden statue in an instant.

Nanaio sobs and trembles as she kisses his cold face.

How beautiful.

Now her "boyfriend" can only look at her forever.

*

The lovesick Nanaio silently sheds tears and decides to spend her life with the statue made of gold.

But her previous boyfriends, whom she'd only kept for a month at a time, and her childhood friend Yuta suddenly come looking for her one after another.

They block her way and ask:

"Nanaio, do you love me?"

[Reading Guide]

1. She's a sweet girl, but not very bright. Nanaio is hopelessly lovesick.

2. One-on-one relationships in each arc. The next relationship only begins after the previous one has been clearly ended. The final pairing is undecided.

3. The blurb mentions Sukuna, but he'll probably be turned into a collectible the moment he appears. Whether he'll get any real screen time remains to be seen.

4. Dark, twisted romance with an overwhelming number of out-of-character portrayals.

5. More to come if I think of anything.
