It’s silly title time in order to stand out on the light novel shelves once again as we’ve learned that the 2013 series Netgame no Yome wa Onnanoko ja Nai to Omotta?, aka And you thought there is never a girl online?) making the leap to anime form. With eight volumes published as of this weekend, the series from Shibai Kineko has done well so far as it’s followed the Dengeki plan by getting a solid volume count out there and meriting a manga adaptation, which is done by Kazui Ishigami that began in March of this year. No details about the production team, cast or what season it will show up in has been announced, but there will definitely be a solid flow of information as the roll out continues.
The seventh volume when released earlier this spring sold around 20,000 copies.
Plot concept: Our naïve protagonist proposes to a female character in an online game, only to find out that the player is actually a guy. Traumatized by that, he decides to never trust a girl online, but now, two years later, a female player is proposing to him. What will happen?

I feel like this will be the next DanMachi or Akame ga Kill, pretty much unknown until people get hyped for the anime.
The internet: Where men are men, women are men, and underage girls are FBI agents.
Interesting concept, though it has me wondering what genre this is. It could range from shoujo to an ecchi rom-com. Anyone have any more details?
The premise is silly, but Hisasi art is a plus.
Yay! Thanks! I’ll get with you later today, doing things for She Who Must Be Obeyed, ATM. ^_^;;
