The Knight Cartoonist and Her Orc Editor

Yeld, an orc sick of life in his dark-fantasy realm, decides to move to Tokyo and become a manga editor. One day, he’s visited by a full-time armored swordswoman, part-time aspiring manga artist—one who gets practically suicidal whenever her work gets rejected! Between her, a tentacle monster summoned as an assistant, and a slime girl with all kinds of "helpful" manga tools, there’s never been a stranger pack of creators! It’s the most realistic(?) depiction of the manga industry yet!

After untold trials and tribulations, the first volume of Annelise’s manga series is finally hitting bookstores! Sadly, manga often has a way of not selling the way you want it to -- and as if that didn’t damage her armor enough, her mom’s threatening to "punish" her unless she’s a full-fledged A-list artist! Facing mortal danger, the only-slightly-less-serious threat of series cancellation, and a small horde of combative editors and artists around her, this final volume features all the agonies of a comic-centric life rolled into one!
