Synopsis
Step-siblings live separately: Masamune writes novels, Sagiri hides; his illustrator Eromanga-sensei is secretly her.
Ever since Masamune and Sagiri Izumi's parents died, the step-siblings have been living under the same roof but leading separate lives. While Masamune works hard as an aspiring light novel author to support them both, Sagiri remains isolated in her room, refusing to leave or interact with others. Masamune has spent over three years building his career in the competitive light novel industry, collaborating with a mysterious illustrator known only as Eromanga-sensei. Despite their long professional partnership, he's never met his artistic collaborator face-to-face. As these two siblings navigate their unusual living arrangement and Masamune pursues his dreams of becoming a successful author, their carefully separated worlds may begin to intersect in unexpected ways.
