But unlike most shut-ins, he did not particularly enjoy those hot-blooded anime and manga. Maybe he had watched too much of them before and had grown tired of them.
Now, he preferred more unconventional things... like cute slice-of-life manga with beautiful art, yuri manga full of girls flirting with girls, and lighthearted comedy manga.
Then... a few weeks ago, he found a copy of Weekly Shonen Sunday at home. He knew all three of Japan's major weekly magazines, especially Weekly Shonen Jump, the most famous one, which focused on hot-blooded stories, friendship, and striving—though he rarely read Weekly Shonen S...
He had no idea where the magazine at home had come from, but he did not pay it much mind... Bored, he casually started reading it.
When he saw the serialized manga titled "Jigoku Shoujo," he was suddenly drawn in... It was not the plot that attracted him, though the story was excellent... Many parts also resonated deeply with him, especially things like school bullying.
But those were not enough to make him care so much. What truly drew him in was... the manga's female lead, Enma Ai.
For the first time, he realized that characters in horror manga could be this cute!
Other protagonists were all righteous, but this manga's protagonist was something like a grim reaper. She could also be called a monster, an evil spirit, a villain!
But... this grim reaper-like character was way too cute!
Thirteen years old?
Forced him to become a loli-con...? But... he became one!
So good!
Then, because of Enma Ai's unique charm, he completely fell in love with the manga. From then on, he bought every issue of Weekly Shonen S, for no other reason... than Enma Ai!
Enma Ai, my wife!
No explanation needed. No objections accepted!
