Romantic Killer

When a rogue wizard hijacks her otome game, an anti‑romance gamer is thrust into a real‑life harem showdown.

High‑schooler Anzu Hoshino lives by three non‑negotiables: her gaming rig, a stash of chocolate, and her cat. Romance is the one thing she’s sworn off, until a glitchy otome game summons a flamboyant, floating wizard named Riri. Declaring Anzu “subject one,” Riri declares that she’ll be the first to experience a real‑life harem scenario, and promptly confiscates her beloved snacks and controller to force her into love‑training. Riri’s meddling turns Anzu’s ordinary school days into a parade of over‑the‑top dating tropes: sudden rainstorms, accidental shoulder brushes, and forced “confessions” that feel ripped straight from a cheesy visual novel. The first target is Tsukasa Kazuki, the school’s resident heartthrob whose smile could melt steel. Though Anzu initially resists his charm with fiery sarcasm, each contrived encounter chips away at her defenses, revealing a surprisingly warm personality beneath the perfect‑boy façade. As Riri continues to drop other archetypal beauties into her path—cool aloof types, goofy jokesters, and mysterious loners—Anzu finds herself juggling more suitors than she ever imagined, and the line between genuine affection and scripted romance blurs. The series riffs on otome conventions while delivering snappy comedy, a dash of supernatural mischief, and a surprisingly heartfelt look at a girl forced to confront the chaos of love.
