**[00:00] ---**
Big Brother,
when will you be home?
I'm at the Gotanno Station,
so I'll be home soon.
**[00:02] ---**
We-Wel-Welcome home!
**[00:07] ---**
Welcome home, Big Brother!
**[00:13] ---**
Welcome home, Big Brother.
**[00:16] ---**
No!
**[00:22] ---**
Welcome home, Big Brother.
**[00:29] ---**
Okay!
**[00:48] ---**
I'm home!
**[00:55] ---**
Well, I guess that's expected.
**[01:02] ---**
Sagiri, I'll leave the souvenirs
from the beach here.
**[01:08] ---**
Welcome home.
**[01:09] ---**
Yeah.
**[01:13] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[01:16] ---**
For what?
**[01:18] ---**
Nothing.
**[01:19] ---**
Anyways, how was it?
The beach... the trip!
**[01:23] ---**
Yeah, it was fun. I got a lot of work done, too.
**[01:28] ---**
And...
**[01:30] ---**
This.
**[01:34] ---**
A straw hat?
**[01:36] ---**
Doesn't it feel like summer?
**[01:38] ---**
And saying this might
have the opposite effect, but...
**[01:43] ---**
One day, when you're able
to go outside again,
**[01:47] ---**
let's go to the beach together.
**[01:58] ---**
S-S-Sagiri!
**[02:05] ---**
Don't make any lewd misunderstandings.
It's a swimsuit!
**[02:19] ---**
H-How is it? Does it look good?
**[02:21] ---**
Uh... Um...
**[02:24] ---**
Okay! That's it!
**[02:27] ---**
Tell me what you think when we go for reals!
**[02:33] ---**
Yeah.
**[02:35] ---**
Let's go together someday.
**[04:07] ---**
Celebrate!

2017.9.9
Written by: Masamune Izumi
Illustration: Eromanga
**[04:21] ---**
It goes on sale tomorrow!
I'm so happy!
**[04:26] ---**
Eromanga-sensei! Eromanga-sensei!
**[04:29] ---**
I don't know anyone by that name!
**[04:32] ---**
Whoa!
**[04:34] ---**
What?
**[04:35] ---**
Finally, tomorrow is the release date
of our newest book!
**[04:39] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:40] ---**
A bookstore in Akiba is going to hold
a "Masamune Izumi Faire" for it.
**[04:44] ---**
Want to go check it out together?
**[04:45] ---**
Together?
**[04:48] ---**
I'll be going now!
**[04:51] ---**
So, this is what you meant
when you said "together".
**[04:54] ---**
It's a sibling date.
**[04:55] ---**
I-Idiot!
**[04:59] ---**
Now I have my third series.
**[05:02] ---**
It's been three years since I debuted.
It felt long, yet short.
**[05:09] ---**
*Big Brother, you started writing novels...*
**[05:12] ---**
I think about five years ago.
**[05:14] ---**
Back then, Mom had just passed away,
and the entire house was gloomy.
**[05:21] ---**
Masamune... Are you lonely?
**[05:24] ---**
I'm...
**[05:28] ---**
I'm not lonely! I'm fine!
**[05:31] ---**
I see.
**[05:33] ---**
But, I don't know.
**[05:35] ---**
What should I do for my family?
**[05:41] ---**
If you smile and live a joyous life,
that's all we need.
**[05:45] ---**
If you're happy, we're happy.
Because we're family.
**[05:52] ---**
Mom too?
**[05:53] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:56] ---**
Got it.
**[05:58] ---**
Ever since, I did all sorts of things,
thinking I had to find something I liked.
**[06:02] ---**
Everything was fun,
but I couldn't get engrossed into them.
**[06:07] ---**
*That's when I found people
writing stories on the internet.*
**[06:11] ---**
*They seemed to have fun.*
**[06:13] ---**
*And I thought, maybe this is it.*
**[06:16] ---**
You got hooked?
**[06:17] ---**
Yeah! It was super-duper fun.
**[06:21] ---**
Why?
**[06:22] ---**
*There was a trigger for it.*
**[06:24] ---**
Oh, I see.
**[06:29] ---**
By the way, what were you
doing back then, Sagiri?
**[06:32] ---**
*Refusing to go to school.*
**[06:34] ---**
Because!
**[06:36] ---**
After Mom and Dad got divorced,
**[06:38] ---**
*I didn't go to school for a while.*
**[06:41] ---**
How did Hamanoumi do?
**[06:41] ---**
By "for a while", you mean that afterwards,
you got over it and started going to school?
**[06:43] ---**
I don't know. You talk about sumo wresting
a lot, but I don't know much about it.
**[06:46] ---**
*Yeah, there was a trigger for it.
I went to grade school properly.*
**[06:49] ---**
Eh? Why? Professional sumo is so amusing.
**[06:52] ---**
Let's go to middle school properly, too.
**[06:52] ---**
We're young enough to find...
**[06:54] ---**
In due time.
**[06:56] ---**
*So, what was your trigger?*
**[06:59] ---**
That's a secret.
**[07:03] ---**
Sagiri, you're going to be late for school.
**[07:18] ---**
Hmm.

*Do you pile up unpublished works?*
**[07:43] ---**
Thank you for the very first comment!
**[07:46] ---**
What does it mean
to pile up unpublished works?
**[07:49] ---**
*When did you write this story?*

**[08:45] ---**
I mean, it was the very first story
I ever wrote,
**[08:48] ---**
so it was worse than what I write now,
and pretty cringeworthy.
**[08:51] ---**
But, it was fun.
**[08:53] ---**
"The Adventures
of Masamune the Hero", right?
**[08:56] ---**
You were reading it, too!?

Completion of Story
**[09:57] ---**
Yee-haw!
**[09:58] ---**
Dad!
**[10:00] ---**
I'm going to be a professional author!
**[10:08] ---**
Well, that's rather sudden.
Did something happen?
**[10:11] ---**
I came to a realization.
**[10:13] ---**
I was actually a genius!
**[10:21] ---**
Why are you laughing?
**[10:22] ---**
Oh, sorry.
**[10:24] ---**
I know, hold on a sec.
**[10:28] ---**
It just arrived, but I'll give it to you.
**[10:32] ---**
Eh? But...
**[10:33] ---**
You're going to be a professional author.
You need one, right?
**[10:38] ---**
Yeah!
**[10:41] ---**
This is super awesome!
**[10:47] ---**
That's what got me hooked onto novels.
**[10:49] ---**
So that's how it was.
**[10:51] ---**
There was someone who said
the first story I ever wrote was interesting.
**[10:56] ---**
*There was someone who drew illustrations
for the characters I created.*
**[11:03] ---**
It made me really happy,
and it was super-duper fun.
**[11:06] ---**
That's why I aimed to become a professional.
**[11:11] ---**
The only thing that linked us together
was the novel website's forums and e-mail.
**[11:17] ---**
But I think we were friends.
**[11:28] ---**
Did you watch the drama last night?
**[11:30] ---**
Yeah, I saw it.
**[11:31] ---**
The other day, that main character...
**[11:43] ---**
*Did you read my new piece?*
**[11:45] ---**
*Not yet. I just woke up.*
**[11:47] ---**
*What? You were still asleep?*
**[11:49] ---**
*Are you by chance...*
**[11:50] ---**
*a NEET?*
**[11:51] ---**
No way!
**[11:53] ---**
Let's see.
**[11:55] ---**
*I-I'm a college student!*
**[11:56] ---**
*I see. So you're an adult.*
**[11:59] ---**
*Yeah! What about you?*
**[12:01] ---**
*I'm 11!*
**[12:03] ---**
*I see. You're younger than me.*
**[12:05] ---**
Sagiri, age 7, currently super in the middle of being a shut-in
**[12:11] ---**
Hey, hey, Mom!
**[12:13] ---**
Yes, what is it?
**[12:16] ---**
I want to eat a Hamburg steak today!
**[12:19] ---**
We'll see. I'll make some if ground meat
is cheap at the supermarket today!
**[12:29] ---**
*I drew another illustration for you!*
**[12:32] ---**
*Seriously? Thank you!*
**[12:34] ---**
*Hey, you know, can I attach it
to the story again and upload it?*
**[12:37] ---**
*Go ahead, but it's terrible.*
**[12:39] ---**
*That doesn't matter at all. I really love it!*
**[12:43] ---**
*I see, then I'll draw more for you.
You better be thankful!*
**[12:47] ---**
*Thank you!*
**[12:48] ---**
*More like, I'm basically the only one
who reads your stories, anyway.*
**[12:53] ---**
*Don't say that!*
**[12:55] ---**
*Besides, the number of people
reading my stuff is growing bit by bit lately!*
**[12:59] ---**
*Oh? Is it thanks to my illustrations?*
**[13:01] ---**
*It's because my stories are interesting!*
**[13:04] ---**
Out of Order
**[13:11] ---**
So hot.
**[13:15] ---**
Oh, geez!
**[13:18] ---**
Hey, Sagiri. Wouldn't school
be a cooler place to be?
**[13:22] ---**
I'll never go. I rather be in a hot place.
**[13:25] ---**
You're so stubborn.
**[13:29] ---**
Ta-dah!
**[13:30] ---**
What do you think?
**[13:33] ---**
A picture like that
doesn't make me want to lick her panties.
**[13:37] ---**
Where did you learn stuff like that?
**[13:46] ---**
A-Anyway, Sagiri, you've been
working hard at drawing lately.
**[13:50] ---**
Do you want me to teach you?
**[13:53] ---**
Not really.
**[13:56] ---**
Oh, I see.
**[14:14] ---**
*Hey, why did you want to start
writing stories?*
**[14:17] ---**
*- What's this so suddenly?
- Just tell me.*
**[14:24] ---**
*I only have a dad.*
**[14:29] ---**
*Someone gets worried
when I'm not enjoying life.*
**[14:34] ---**
*So, I thought I had to find something
I liked doing.*
**[14:37] ---**
*Such a dreary reason.
Is stuff like that interesting?*
**[14:40] ---**
*It's super-duper interesting.*
**[14:42] ---**
*Because you read what I write.*
**[14:46] ---**
*I've gotten to like writing stories.*
**[14:48] ---**
I see.
**[14:56] ---**
I-I'll be going now.
**[15:21] ---**
Adachi Ward Sakuranoshita Elementary School's
18th Graduation Ceremony
**[15:22] ---**
Congrats on graduating!
**[15:23] ---**
I might keep playing
badminton in middle school.
**[15:30] ---**
Yo!
**[15:36] ---**
Izumi-sensei, isn't this
a few too many manuscripts to submit?
**[15:44] ---**
Hm? Huh?
**[15:48] ---**
This is the work of a genius, see?
**[15:49] ---**
I'm going to be a professional author.
**[15:53] ---**
Wow, such confidence.
**[15:54] ---**
Maybe it will be just as you say.
**[15:58] ---**
Please send these!
**[16:08] ---**
Goodnight
**[16:08] ---**
*Do you like drawing?*
**[16:12] ---**
*What's this so suddenly?*
**[16:13] ---**
*Just tell me.*
**[16:17] ---**
*I like it, because there's someone
who gets happy with what I draw.*
**[16:23] ---**
*I see. Then, that's good.*
**[16:25] ---**
*What's up with you?*
**[16:28] ---**
*I'm going to be a professional author!*
**[16:32] ---**
What is this guy saying?
**[16:35] ---**
*Don't get so cocky. You suck.*
**[16:38] ---**
*You said my stories were interesting!*
**[16:41] ---**
*It's interesting. But there's no way
you'd become a professional.*
**[16:45] ---**
*I will! Because I'm a genius!*
**[16:49] ---**
Seriously, what is this guy saying?
**[16:51] ---**
*I just sent out a manuscript as a submission.*
**[16:58] ---**
*Hmm, I see. So you're serious.*
**[17:01] ---**
*Yeah, so...*
**[17:03] ---**
*You should become a professional, too.*
**[17:06] ---**
*And draw characters for me again.*
**[17:12] ---**
*This past year was really fun.*
**[17:16] ---**
*I got my first review,
as well as my first illustration.*
**[17:20] ---**
*I laughed a ton thanks to you.*
**[17:24] ---**
Me too.
**[17:26] ---**
*Let's do something
even more interesting tomorrow, too!*
**[17:29] ---**
*I'll become a professional author, and make
tons of people read super-interesting books,*
**[17:34] ---**
*and spend every day having fun!*
**[17:36] ---**
*Hey, we should have fun together.*
**[17:42] ---**
That's some boasting.
**[17:44] ---**
You don't even know if that'll come true.
**[17:47] ---**
*It will. I guarantee it as a genius.*
**[17:55] ---**
*All right.*
**[17:57] ---**
*I won't draw for your stories anymore.*
**[18:00] ---**
*I won't send you e-mails either.
You should stop contacting me, too.*
**[18:04] ---**
Why?
**[18:06] ---**
*I'm going to seriously start practicing
how to draw from today.*
**[18:08] ---**
*So that I can make the dream
you just gave me, come true.*
**[18:17] ---**
*We're going to make a book together,
and live every day laughing, right?*
**[18:24] ---**
*I'm not a genius, so I don't
have any more time to play around with kids.*
**[18:33] ---**
From: Anonymous
**[18:34] ---**
Then...
**[18:36] ---**
*I won't write novels
as a hobby anymore, either.*
**[18:42] ---**
*The next time
we contact each other...*
**[18:45] ---**
*...will be when we both become professionals.*
**[18:55] ---**
Then, see ya.
**[18:58] ---**
Yeah! See ya!
**[19:03] ---**
All right, let's get to it!
**[19:07] ---**
All right!
**[19:16] ---**
Teach me how to draw!
**[19:23] ---**
*We're here!*
**[19:25] ---**
Akihabara!
**[19:29] ---**
Amazing! It's just like I've seen in anime!
**[19:32] ---**
*I want a tour of Akiba first!*
**[19:34] ---**
Sure thing!
**[19:40] ---**
Big Brother
I love you!
**[20:01] ---**
The World's Cutest Little Sister
**[20:03] ---**
Look at that.
**[20:05] ---**
"Eromanga", huh?
**[20:07] ---**
I've gotten used to it already,
Eromanga-sensei.
**[20:10] ---**
*I don't know anyone by that name!*
**[20:17] ---**
It's our book.
**[20:19] ---**
Yeah.
**[20:21] ---**
*You know, Sagiri...*
**[20:23] ---**
*Ever since I've been reunited with you,
everything's been really fun.*
**[20:27] ---**
Me too.
**[20:28] ---**
*I laughed a lot.*
**[20:30] ---**
Me too.
**[20:33] ---**
*Izumi-sensei.*
**[20:34] ---**
Hmm?
**[20:35] ---**
The first dream you've given me
has come true.
**[20:39] ---**
Let's make this dream come true, too.
**[20:47] ---**
Yeah, for sure.
**[20:50] ---**
*The next time we contact each other...*
**[20:53] ---**
*...will be when we both become professionals.*
**[20:55] ---**
The World's Cutest Little Sister
**[20:55] ---**
"And then, it was love at first sight......"
**[21:02] ---**
I'm getting nervous.
**[21:03] ---**
*It's useless to fret at this time.*
**[21:06] ---**
Everyone who's read my new book...
**[21:08] ---**
I hope they had fun reading it.
**[21:13] ---**
What happened to that confidence
you used to have?
**[21:20] ---**
Hey, there's something
I've been meaning to ask you for a while.
**[21:23] ---**
Look at this light-novel!
**[21:25] ---**
I'm sure it's going to be interesting!
**[21:28] ---**
The illustration is super-cute, too.
It looks like I can have high hopes for it!
**[21:31] ---**
Indeed, that illustration
has quite a powerful soul within it.
**[21:35] ---**
But, who knows about the contents?
**[21:37] ---**
The author of the book is someone I barely
know about. A very minor-league author.
**[21:38] ---**
- Now now, both of you, it is all fine.
- Sheesh.
**[21:42] ---**
Furthermore, it looks like
he changed genres in this new series.
**[21:45] ---**
Who knows if it will be interesting or not.
**[21:47] ---**
Big Brother, just now...
**[21:48] ---**
It's better than the novel you just bought,
the original story for that crappy anime.
**[21:49] ---**
Yeah.
**[21:52] ---**
*I pray the novel we created
will be interesting for you, too.*
**[21:52] ---**
The original novels are interesting. Don't jump
to conclusions just by watching the anime!
**[22:11] ---**
I'm home!
**[22:14] ---**
Sagiri, you...
**[22:16] ---**
You can walk outside your room now?
**[22:19] ---**
Just a little bit.
I'm overexerting myself, though.
**[22:29] ---**
I've been secretly practicing.
**[22:34] ---**
I see. You've been putting in effort.
**[22:37] ---**
Don't treat me like a child.
**[22:39] ---**
Ugh, because you said something you didn't
need to, I forgot about the main point.
**[22:47] ---**
Welcome home, Big Brother. Congratulations
on the release of the new novel.
**[22:53] ---**
I'm home, Sagiri.
**[22:54] ---**
Eromanga-sensei's illustrations
are really the talk of the town.
**[22:58] ---**
I-I don't know anyone by that—
**[23:00] ---**
But I know.
**[23:04] ---**
Thank you, as always.
**[23:11] ---**
*Then, see ya.*
**[23:14] ---**
*Yeah! See ya!*
**[23:17] ---**
My regards for the future.
**[23:25] ---**
The pleasure is mine!
**[23:30] ---**
