Kodansha's Magazine Pocket digital platform has officially announced an upcoming manga series created by artist Sho Yamazaki and writer Fuyu Aoki. Titled Shuran Reijō no Yarakashi: Seiryaku Kekkonmae Yakesake, Ki ga Tsuku to Reikokuna Konyakusha to Dragon no Hate no Naka, the series is scheduled to debut on October 30, bringing a fresh take on romantic comedy and fantasy entanglements to the popular app.
The narrative centers on Arwina, whose exceptionally charming younger sister Lorelai consistently captures the affection of every eligible bachelor in their social circle. Just as Arwina believes she has finally secured a match with someone immune to Lorelai's charms, her fiancé abrupt calls off their upcoming marriage on the eve of her 21st birthday. Seeking solace from her heartbreak, Arwina embarks on a heavy night of drinking, only to wake up the following morning in an unfamiliar bed alongside an unknown man and deep within a dragon's domain.
