action
Masamune Izumi is a high school student and loves to write light novels . However, since he has no artistic talent, he lets his anonymous partner draw his illustrations for his works, who calls himself "Eromanga-sensei" and makes questionable and perverse drawings, but is extremely reliable. In addition to his work as a writer and the school, Masamune takes care of his only remaining family member, his younger stepsister Sagiri, a Hikikomori who has not left her room for more than a year.
When Masamune learns that Eromanga Sensei is hosting a live stream in which he creates an illustration for his viewers in real time, he watches it at home. He accidentally finds out who is behind the pseudonym. The mysterious illustrator is his younger sister Sagiri. The life of the two is upset when a Shōjo - Mangaka moves into the neighboring house and spends more time with them.
Characters
main characters
- Masamune Izumi ( 和 泉 正宗 , Izumi Masamune )
- Masamune is 15 years old and is in the first year of high school and is also a novelist . In middle school, he won an award for a series of light novels he wrote himself. He is the creator of the light novel series Silverwolf of Reincarnation and hires the anonymous illustrator "Eromanga Sensei" to make the drawings for him. By chance he finds out that the unknown illustrator is his own younger stepsister Sagiri. Masamune began story writing shortly after his mother's death and sees novel writing as a hobby .
- Sagiri Izumi ( 和 泉 紗 霧 , Izumi Sagiri )
- Sagiri is Masamune's 12-year-old stepsister and a hikikomori who never leaves her room, not even to eat, and instead relies fully on her older brother.

Although her brother and a few other people around her know of her identity as "Eromanga Sensei", she always denies this and says that she does not know anyone by that name.
