A demon slayer thus far in name only, Yuuto finally decides to take his potential into his own hands to protect his spirit friends from two rampaging demons out for their blood! But after undergoing intensive training with Himari for this purpose, Yuuto is called to battle not the bloodthirsty Tamamo-no-mae and Shuten-Douji, but his Lolita housemate, Shizuku, who has been consumed by her deep-seated grudge against the demon-slayer clan that decimated her family! Will Yuuto have to whip out his new skills against Shizuku, or will he find another way to talk the water snake spirit down from her rage?!

Book Description
Haunted by the untimely deaths of his mother, little sister, and a childhood friend, listless high schooler Haruomi Io has trouble engaging with anything or anyone. Of course, that doesn't mean others have trouble engaging with him-a fact he discovers to his dismay when he finds himself the target of a trigger-happy group calling themselves the "Seventh Gospel Organization." Having newfound enemies may be rough, but Haruomi's unexpected ally in the form of a demoness calling herself Zilch may turn out to be even more of a handful...Still, there's something to be said for a dose of the supernatural (and more than a few buxom girls) when it comes to casting off the doldrums!

Book Description
This volume invites the reader into the world of pragmatic and discourse studies in Japanese popular culture. Through “character-speak”, the book analyzes quoted speech in light (graphic) novels, the effeminate onee kotoba in talk shows, narrative character in keetai (mobile phone) novels, floating whispers in manga, and fictionalized dialects in television drama series. Explorations into conversational interaction, internal monologue, rhetorical figures, intertextuality, and the semiotic mediation between verbal and visual signs reveal how speakers manipulate language in performing playful “characters” and “characteristics”. Most prominent in the discourse of Japanese popular culture is its “fluid orality”. We find the essential oral nature in and across genres of Japanese popular culture, and observe seamless transitions among styles and speech variations. This fluidity is understood as a feature of polyphonic speech initiated not by the so-called ideal singular speaker, but by a multiple and often shifting interplay of one’s speaking selves performing as various characters. Challenging traditional (Western) linguistic theories founded on the concept of the autonomous speaker, this study ventures into open and embracing pragmatic and discourse studies that inquire into the very nature of our speaking selves.
