By the creator of Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon: can the strangely realistic characters in a mysterious video game bring meaning to one man's life...and help him reconnect with the "real world"? Don't miss the manga, also from Seven Seas! Yoshio is thirty years old, and his life is a mess. A shut-in living with his parents, he has no job, no relationship, and no prospects. When he receives a new sim computer game that boasts characters created with a new kind of A.I., he doesn’t think much of it–until he gets drawn into a fantasy world so vibrant and lifelike that its residents can’t just be game characters. Suddenly finding himself the benevolent god of a scrappy fantasy village is a lot for Yoshio to handle, but it might be the key to the change he desperately needs.

As a long-time unemployed loser, Yoshio's relationship with his family is strained at best. Worst of all, thanks to failing her during a terrifying incident, his sister has complete contempt for him. But lately, Yoshio's life has rapidly begun to change. It's all thanks to receiving an invite to beta-test a mysterious game known as the Village of Fate--a game so amazingly realistic that its characters almost seem like real people. Playing the role of a "God of Fate" protecting a small group of villagers, the game gives new meaning to Yoshio's dull existence, and soon begins to reveal unexpected new opportunities, some of them even affecting the real world.

THE DAY OF CORRUPTION After spending his twenties as a shut-in, Yoshio’s life has begun to change, thanks to getting his hands on an incredible game called “The Village of Fate.” Its graphics are amazing, and the characters are so lifelike that they seem almost like real people. In order to protect them, Yoshio even landed a part-time job to afford the in-game currency. His strained family relationships may be on the mend, but he’ll need every extra point his new income can buy. The “Day of Corruption” is fast approaching, and his villagers will be tested by hordes of ravenous monsters. With the NPCs short on weapons and manpower, can Yoshio protect them until the dawn?

After dying in a traffic accident, I find myself standing near an unfamiliar lake. My body won't move, I can't hear my voice, and when I try to shout in confusion, words that I never expected come out! "Get one free with a winner." I-it seems I've turned into a vending machine...! I can only do what actual vending machines can. It's impossible to move by myself, and there's no way for me to have any meaningful conversation-how am I going to survive some fantasy world's dungeon like this?!

With the leaders of Holylight under his thumb, the Demon Lord decides to summon yet another member of the Sleepless Castle: Ren Miyaoji, Akira Ono’s most beloved advisor.

The Demon Lord, the walking embodiment of hijinks, soon draws the attention of this company, and then...
