Tsubakiya Hinata, 14 years old. As for me, Onodera Tatsuya – a teacher who just took office. Hinata is a student and an old neighbor to me. Due to her rapid development, she has become more mature than her peers, and because of that, Hinata quickly becomes the center of false rumors. But in truth, Hinata was still much more childish than she looked. In the middle stage between adults and children, a fleeting glint exists only at this moment. For those who didn’t take long to mature, the luminosity was so dim that it was barely noticeable. Then at some point it will flap its wings and fly to new horizons. So at least for now, I want to follow every step of the way while I can. Today, I will continue to face Tsubakiya Hinata. Source: NU

Called a failure by his adoptive parents, bullied at school, ignored by teachers, high school boy Kurogane Rikuto has nowhere to belong neither at home nor at school. "Life is shit. I guess I'll die." After saying this, he was about to commit suicide by jumping off the school’s roof when suddenly all sorts of monsters started appearing from students' smartphones, transforming the school into a hellscape of screaming agony. Goblins, orcs, slimes… Everybody has seen them in games: "small fry monsters". However, humans in the real world, where there is no magic, no special abilities, and no leveling up, are devoured by those "small fries" without any means to retaliate. Rikuto, spared from the incident due to his bullies destroying his phone, seeing the students who bullied him and the teachers dying unsightly deaths and the collapse of order, realizes he does have a desire to survive. Just then, a goblin wielding a club attacks him from behind— Thus begins the survival action tale of one insignificant human driven into extreme circumstances. **Original Webtoon:** [Japanese](https://jumptoon.com/series/JT00017/)

Hieda-sensei is a professor of archeology, with a fervent belief in the existence and power of supernatural creatures like gods and demons. Since he can't prove anything, his belief has earned him the mocking nickname "Youkai Hunter" from his colleagues. One day, two men from Ootori-chou come to visit him. They're planning to promote tourism by reviving their town's old, traditional "Demon Festival," which has been discontinued for the past century. They're basing the festival on Hieda's research, although they're changing a few details to make it flashier for modern sightseers. Although Hieda is troubled by the history of human death associated with the festival, he agrees to attend as an advisor. When the Demon Festival turns out to be much more 'historically accurate' than anyone ever dreamed, it will take all of Hieda's knowledge and courage to help set things right! (Source: MangaHelpers)
