Amutech is a company established to bring otaku culture to the people there (or maybe foist it on them), and now itâs getting a new staff member: Hikaru, who comes in as assistant to the general manager, Kanou Shinichi. Sheâs also strikingly beautiful, a heckuva communicator, and almost immediately a big hit at both the palace and the school.

At the same time, something is happening in the Eldant Empire, and Shinichi may be in danger (again). What can he do? Anything?!

The year is 20XX, and Shinichi Kanou is a pretty typical otaku: he loves anime, manga, games, and light novels, but his devotion to the two-dimensional hasn't always made him the most popular guy around. What he doesn't know is that Japan has discovered a portal to another world in the vicinity of Mount Fuji. The people of the Eldant Empire, though, only have eyes for one of Japan's traditional exports: pop culture. Enter Amutech, a purveyor of "general entertainment" that's secretly run by the Japanese government. Shinichi lands a job as the company's general manager. Now he finally has a chance to put his nerd know-how to good use spreading the otaku gospel in the Eldant Empire. And wait... he has to work with a half-elf maid, an empress, AND a female soldier to get the job done?
