Ecchi Light Novel Author’s Life Revealed After Unexpected Family Incident

You may not know this, but many authors of ecchi or even adult works hide this fact from their families, whether it is from parents who may not approve, children who should not see that their parents earn money this way, or even a partner.

One of these authors is Masanan, who writes the light novel Eroi Skill de Isekai Musou, whose story is as follows:

Yasuhiko Akizuki was accidentally summoned to another world by a goddess. As one of the common and easily found “heroes,” he is thrown into this new world with almost no money or equipment.

Upon arrival, he is ridiculed by local adventurers for being a “mass-produced hero.” This is the story of a man who faces the harsh realities of this classic fantasy using his sexual abilities as a weapon, and uses them to eventually save the world.

So you can see? It is a very ecchi and popular series, and the Eroi Skill de Isekai Musou novel sells well, also having an ongoing manga adaptation.

But when did the controversy start? Basically, Masanan hid from his family the fact that he wrote ecchi novels, but everything fell apart in 2021 when his publisher sent him a New Year’s card… in his name… WITH THE NAME OF HIS NOVEL! And Masanan’s family saw it!

More details were later revealed. Masanan said his family was not very happy with the discovery, and the situation became uncomfortable at home. His mother also said she was worried about Masanan’s future, both academically and socially, wondering how he would be able to form relationships while writing this kind of work.

And now comes an even more impactful fact: apparently Masanan is a woman… because a fan once asked if she was a high school girl, and Masanan replied that she is not a high school girl but a student, implying she is a woman, or at least presents herself as one.
