The award-winning manga that inspired the anime My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999
Sometimes love is like an endgame boss. College student Akane has just been dumped by her
boyfriend. Heartbroken she decides to quit the online RPG they used to play together—but
instead of deleting her account she logs in and battles low-level enemies to relieve her
stress and hurt feelings. There she meets Yamada an elite pro gamer so reclusive that Akane
can’t decide if he’s awkward or alluring. When Akane encounters her ex at a gaming convention
she makes the snap decision to pretend Yamada is her boyfriend and soon the two of them are
spending time together both in the game and in real life. The problem is Yamada is only
interested in the game. As Akane’s feelings grow will Yamada’s focus shift? Volume 1 includes
Chapters 1-9.
