Saho

A collection of eleven original short stories from eleven different authors. Organized by Wakabayashi Toshiya.

I, Hayato, once met an Oni princess when I was young, and I made a promise to marry her when I became eighteen. But after that day, I was predisposed to experiencing ecchi disasters whenever I touch women. With the cause unknown, I intended to live out my life in high school without ever finding a girlfriend. But on that fateful day, Sakura, the Oni princess grown up, came back as promised.

Youichi is a gruff boy of few words that goes to a school full of problematic students. Chikage is an innocent and friendly boy that goes to a prestigious school. These boys are very different and became brothers when their parents married, and are now living alone together. This comedy is about the day to day life and cohabitation of these stepbrothers.

Naibara Hirokazu moves from Miyagi to Saitama to start university in Tokyo. Not long after settling in, he starts receiving eerie phone calls from an unknown number. A girl's voice whispers, "It's Mary-san. I'm at the garbage dump now... I'm the doll you threw away..." Brushing it off as a prank, he hangs up—but the calls don't stop. Worse, the caller seems to be getting closer. The next day, he answers again. "It's Mary-san. I'm in front of your room now..." Could it be that Mary-san, the infamous urban legend, has been isekai'd—and now she’s asking for help over the phone?!
