How far can a fake relationship go?Mai is no longer invisible--she’s acting again, and she finally said yes when Sakuta asked her out for the millionth time.

Having advanced to the second stratum, Maple and Sally prepare for the upcoming event: a week-long exploration fest and battle royale. But there’s one attack that no amount of defense can protect Maple against-the admins nerfing her!

Word is the next event will focus on large-scale guild PVP, and that’s bad news for Maple Tree. With only six members, they’re sure to be at a disadvantage— and the other top guilds are even putting together anti- Maple strategies! Fortunately, the gang picks up two new recruits: Mai and Yui, twin sisters bearing all-strength builds who’ll pack quite a punch after a little power leveling.

She may not have anything in the way of magic, agility, or strength, but her extreme build transforms her from a total noob into a nigh-invulnerable walking fortress the game’s admins never accounted for!

Reign of the Seven Spellblades is a rising star in the world of light novels, a compelling and action-packed series that is described by fans as an edgy Harry Potter with magical sword battles.

Just before summer break, Sakuta encounters Shouko Makinohara, a girl in junior high with the same name and face as his first love. Of course, that should be impossible, since she would be in college by now. Then, as if one mystery wasn’t bad enough, Adolescence Syndrome strikes again. His impassive friend from the science club, Rio, discovers she has a doppelgänger. One of the Rios is forced out of her house and winds up staying at Sakuta’s apartment. Definitely not the girl he expected to find himself living with...And when Mai insists she’s going to sleep over, too, Sakuta’s summer vacation descends into pure chaos.

Out of sight, out of mind! Bunny girls do not live in libraries. This is simply common sense. And yet, that’s exactly where Sakuta finds one in the wild. More bewildering is who the bunny girl is: Mai Sakurajima, a girl one year older than Sakuta, famous at their school for her acting career even though she’s currently on break. To top it all off, it seems like no one else in the library can see Mai at all, no matter what she does or...wears. Wanting to find out more about this mystery and maybe get a little closer to this beautiful upperclassman in the process, Sakuta launches an investigation to discover why an unforgettable bunny girl keeps becoming totally invisible.
