Synopsis
NEET Ryou enters a deadly romance game world with save/load powers and must survive dangerous women.
Ordinary NEET Ryou Hasegawa discovered that his reality had turned completely into a Romance Game world as soon as he woke up. Thus he sets out to capture his targets with his freely usable "Save & Load" and "Item" abilities. But it turns out that what he got involved with, was a life-risking game with very dangerous women to capture! (Source: Kadokawa, translated)
