Not A Fiction

Imagine after watching your favorite anime, completing your favorite video game, or finishing reading your favorite manga for the first time, you assume you’ll go back to school with your boring life, only to find out that the stories that you consumed were actually a message sent to you by the same characters that you first thought were just fictional.

Well, that’s the sort of situation our protagonist is in.

He’s a normal high school boy who enjoys many hobbies and longs for the day that his life can be an adventure, just like the characters in the hobbies he indulges in.
Then one day, his waifu appears to him in the real world, claiming that he is the main character reincarnated.
By telling the story of their past lives through entertainment, there was a chance that more and more people from their small group of adventurers would be able to remember everything and find one another after she and a couple of others coincidentally encountered one another.
However, no matter how many times she and his ‘friends’ try to convince him, he doesn’t believe that he is the Cloud Strife, Erin Yeager, or Issei Hyoudou of this world, and instead just fanboys like the weeb he is.
