Outbreak Company: Volume 1
Well, Whaddya Know, Another Isekai Light Novel!<br /><br />The year is 20XX, and Shinichi Kanou is a pretty typical otaku: he loves anime, manga, games, and light novels, but his devotion to the two-dimensional hasn't always made him the most popular guy around.<br /><br />What he doesn’t know is that Japan has discovered a portal to another world in the vicinity of Mount Fuji. The government sees a great chance to make a profit, if they can keep the secret long enough to corner the market on exports to the Holy Eldant Empire, their point of first contact with this new land.<br /><br />The people of the Eldant Empire, though, only have eyes for one of Japan’s traditional exports: pop culture. When it quickly becomes evident that government bureaucrats and “Japanimation†don’t really mix, the bigwigs realize they’re going to need help bringing “otaku culture†to the Eldant masses.<br /><br />Enter Amutech, a purveyor of “general entertainment†that’s secretly run by the Japanese government. Shinichi lands a job as the company’s general manager, whereupon he learns the state’s biggest secret. Now he finally has a chance to put his nerd know-how to good use spreading the otaku gospel in the Eldant Empire. And wait... he has to work with a half-elf maid, an empress, AND a female soldier to get the job done?<br /><br />ï½·ï¾€â”â”â”â”â”â”(゚∀゚)â”â”â”â”â”â” !!!!!
