Outbreak Company

On the other side of a wormhole connected to Japan is a fantasy world called the Holy Eldant Empire. A guy named Shinichi is the general manager of Amutech, a company established to foster cultural exchange there—otaku culture, that is!

Lately, Shinichi has gone back to his old shut-in ways because—well, if you’d been through what he has, wouldn’t you? Minori’s trying everything she can to get him to come out of his cave, but in the meantime, the world outside the mansion is… under existential threat?!

Shinichi’s not the only one with a tale to tell, though: everyone’s favorite cross-dresser Hikaru and the lizardman couple Brooke and Cerise also feature in the second Outbreak Company short story collection!
