Welcome to the World of Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Characters

One-line synopsis: Why can all the beautiful, strong, and tragic characters hear my thoughts?

The blurb goes like this:

-

Igarashi Tadase is an outgoing, popular guy, but somehow he transmigrates into all kinds of action manga worlds where every character is beautiful, strong, and tragic, and wildly out of character.

The plot has gone so far off the rails that even the author who gave birth to it wouldn't recognize it. Then a System drops out of the sky and orders him to get the plot back on track within a limited time, or spend eternity as an office drone.

Obviously, he wants no part of that!

But... if he's the only one trying to fix the plot, and he's never even read the manga, how is he supposed to get it back on track without a single clue?

Igarashi Tadase posed this question to the universe.

-

Megumi is a little boy whose parents are both dead, and the conservative old guard of the Zenin family dotes on him.

After watching his only sister die while they belittled her, Megumi finally turns evil, takes the initiative to become head of the Zenin family, and begins his bloody campaign.

One day, a man claiming to be his elementary school classmate comes to visit.

"Fushiguro, it's been a long time!"

Megumi looks down at him, about to have someone drag him out, when he suddenly hears a voice from beyond the heavens.

"Classmate my ass. We've never met. The System sure is good at making stuff up."

Megumi: "..."

At least he's honest.

-

Killua, the current head of the Zoldyck family, grew up under the emotional abuse of his parents and older brothers, and often shows people his cold, cruel side.

"Killua, come back to us!"

His childhood friend Gon cries out to him with all his might.

Unfortunately, Killua has already shut his heart away.

Just as he's about to try to kill Gon, he sees the tall man accompanying him trembling in fear.

"Maybe I should just go back to being an office drone. That's still better than being slaughtered like livestock here!"

Gon and Killua look at each other: "?"

Did someone just say something?

-

Chuya is a remarkable man who has weathered countless storms before even turning twenty-eight.

Ever since his companions betrayed him as a teenager, he resolved never to trust anyone again.

He founded his own gang, and in just a few years it rose to rival Yokohama's big brother, the Port Mafia. The two became sworn enemies.

His sworn enemy seems rather self-important, and only ever sends a messenger to negotiate with his gang.

"Mr. Chuya, this is a letter from my boss."

"Mr. Chuya, my boss would like to discuss the following meeting arrangements with you."

"Mr. Chuya, my boss sent you this wine-opening gadget."

As the messages from his sworn enemy get more and more ridiculous, Chuya finally loses his temper.

"Is your boss's brain messed up or what?"

The messenger hunches his shoulders. Chuya is just about to tell his men to send him away when he hears an excited voice.

"It is messed up! I came to deliver a message, and that ability user put a ridiculous curse on me that makes my soul vanish if I say too much! How am I supposed to get the plot back on track like this? Even a god couldn't save it!"

Reader's note:

1. This story takes place in an out-of-character world where everyone is beautiful, strong, and tragic. All the out-of-character plotlines are entirely my own ideas and are not meant to reflect anything else.

2. The characters mentioned in the blurb are only a few examples. Everyone except the protagonist is beautiful, strong, and tragic in the main story.

3. All the beautiful, strong, and tragic characters can hear the protagonist's muttered complaints and inner thoughts.

Happy reading!
