After a career spent slapping down superheroes as an evil minion of the Kisaragi Corporation, Agent Six has his next assignment—invade a fantasy world! With his pluck new partner, the “pretty-girl android” Alice, Agent Six sets out to bring his target planet to heel. What better way to accomplish that than by partnering with the locals?! Alongside Royal Guard Captain Snow, Battle Chimera Rose, and Archbishop Grimm, Alice and Six will square off against demon hordes—even if it’s just a means of taking down the competition! Let the battle to be baddest begin!

Long ago, the Chosen One defeated the Demon King and brought peace to the world…not that it matters to ordinary high school student Hironori Tabata. But word is the Demon King’s coming back, and the only thing that can stop him is what’s in Hironori’s pants. Before long, demi-human girls are throwing themselves at him, hoping to give birth to the next Chosen One, and Hironori has to worry more about saving his chastity for the girl he loves than saving the world!

Tabata’s still coming to grips with all the sweaty nights he can’t remember, but the onslaught of hot demi-human girls isn’t over! Faced with a cool, older dark elf , a high school wolf-gal , and a proud harpy wrestler , will Tabata fall to temptation? And he’d better watch out, because the Epiphany Maidens aren’t the only ladies eager to get their hands on what’s between his legs…

Agent Six’s utterly unchivalrous tactics had been working wonders, but that all comes to an end when he and Alice are outed as spies and banished from the kingdom of Grace. How unfortunate that the Demon Army is preparing for all-out war at that very moment... Six might still be able to save his feckless former squadmates from certain doom—but only if he’s willing to gain an unfortunate nickname in the process!

YESTERDAY’S ENEMY IS TODAY’S PLAYER 2 It’s been one week since the Demon Lord’s Army suffered an overwhelming defeat at the hands of the Kisaragi Corporation, thanks in no small part to Lilith the Black. Now Six and the others have received a formal invitation to the Demon Lord’s Castle for peace talks, but could they be walking into a trap…? Meanwhile, the words “Demon Lord” immediately conjure up the image of some evil old geezer, so who is this beautiful woman supposed to be?!

A month has passed since the cease-fire with the Demon Army, and now that the teleporter is online, Kisaragi has sent a mutant to help the invasion get back on track. But the evil organization’s plans are derailed once again when Six is dispatched on a diplomatic mission to relieve the kingdom of Grace’s terrible drought-a problem he caused by changing a rainmaking artifact’s password into something that can’t be printed on the back of a book. Is Six really the right man for the job…?

CHAOS VERSUS ORDER. After the Demon Lord Viper’s “selfdestruction,” relative peace returns to Hideout City. Now, Six and the others can turn their attention to more important matters-like how sexy their new recruit’s uniform is! But in no time at all, chaos descends yet again. The neighboring kingdom of Toris has come under the control of a new organization. When an agent of this mysterious entity starts stirring up trouble, Six and the others decide to respond the only way the Kisaragi Corporation knows how-with acts of villainy! The battle for total world domination is heating up, but will this new enemy be a match for everyone’s favorite evil organization?

Suddenly transported to the demon world, Hironori is shocked to learn his seed has the potential to birth not only the Chosen One, but also the next Demon King! With the fate of both worlds hanging in the balance, the Epiphany Maidens race to rescue him-but faced with the depraved pleasures of the fiendish Desecration Maidens, Hironori might be squeezed dry before they arrive!

Unsurprisingly, the rumor of a shrine where parted friends and family can be reunited piques the interest of Iroha, who remains no closer to figuring out what happened to her sister, Ui. Though Yachiyo is reluctant to partner with another magical girls, she shares Iroha’s desire to see a loved one and agrees to face the Séance Shrine together. They are not the first to be lured by the rumor’s promise-will they be the last?

Agent Six’s squad, having failed to get their hands on the water fruit after an attack from the Sand King, are stuck wandering the desert. It’s looking bad-they’re running out of water, their capacity for rational thought is boiling away, their “survival instincts” are starting to go off the charts, and their useless necromancer is shriveling up into nothing. In the face of all that, can Six and the rest make it back from the desert alive…?!

Hironori and the others are bound and left to the tender mercies of Aki, the strongest in the demon world and a dead ringer for Hironori's little sister. She wants his seed all to herself and is willing to destroy the world if she doesn't get her way! With thirsty vixens on either side and nowhere to run, can Hironori find a way to save the Epiphany Maidens and escape, or will he give in to Aki's sweet seduction?!

While Six is attending to the urgent business of peeking up the skirt of his (male) former mortal enemy, he gets a request from Grimm to help her prepare for the upcoming Undead Festival, where spirits of the departed actually return to the land of the living. Is it fifinally this useless archbishop’s time to shine?! It may have to be, as Six soon gets sidelined with new orders from Kisaragi-to construct a new, properly fortifified base for the evil organization to stage its invasion from. But since he doesn’t have nearly enough Evil Points to accomplish that, he’ll have to resort to his most heinous measures yet...

The girls’ prayers open a door to the unknown. After accepting refreshing water samples from a sidewalk stall, three thirsty magical girls from three different cities find they have fallen victim to the same fate! The Rumor of the Misery Water promises to doom its victims to despair—and will surely do so unless Iroha and her new comrades, Kyouko and Felicia, can find it first! As the literal countdown ticks away, the girls’ progress is interrupted by a group of hooded magical girls...who want to protect the Rumor?!

With fewer witches cropping up in Mitakihara and the surrounding area, many magical girls are embracing their chance to enjoy a break from the hunt— but not Mami Tomoe! Mami wants to know why witch numbers are declining in every city save one. In Kamihama City, the witch population is greater and stronger than ever, not to mention there’s a mysterious magical presence unlike anything Mami has encountered before...!

Hironori’s finally gone and done it as Aki and the Epiphany Maidens are found to be pregnant! There’s no time to celebrate, though. The gods have taken note of Hironori and his seed, and they’re none too pleased about his potential progeny. Fortunately, the girls don’t have just any old buns in their ovens, as the momentous powers of the chosen one rise to protect the expectant mothers! Can they master their maternity in time to stand up to the gods’ aura of eros!?

Iroha's setting into her new life after moving to Mikazuki Manor. Some suspicious mail arrives for her, offering to save the girl captured by the “depths of loneliness”?!

Problem after problem keeps cropping up at the Undead Festival—Agent Ten gets busted for his nighttime activities in Tillis’s room, Snow gets roped into scamming innocent festival attendees, and Rose starts a new life as...an old man’s dog?! Grimm, as the festival’s organizer, is the only one of them trying to take things seriously for once, but all those issues are going to look like child’s play compared to the return from the dead of...someone Six didn’t really bother to remember!

After the Grace Branch base blows up yet again, Six gets fed up with the total lack of headway on the invasion and bends the truth just a teeeensy bit in his report by saying the construction is fully complete. As a result, he’s able to trick Kisaragi into sending Lilith, the smartest of the Supreme Leaders—responsible for amazing inventions like the process for creating mutants and the high-tech weaponry and gadgets all combat agents rely on—to assist him and Alice in person. Now that she’s on the job, they’re sure to start making major progress...if they can get her to stop crying over the lack of internet, video games, and all the other staples of her gremlin lifestyle...
