Japanese Title:ちょろいんですが恋人にはなれませんか?

The second volume of this light novel series came out in Japan just recently and instantly grabbed me with its cover illustration. It’s pretty hard to avert your eyes from any artwork of a short-haired blonde loli in a loosening school uniform, but something about this adorable, soft art style definitely stuck with me.

I don’t think anyone has thought of translating it yet, but the setup seems to be a pretty standard love-comedy routine based around a harem of three girls. The twist for this series is in the titular ‘choroin’ (a mix of choroi meaning easy and heroine). The main character saves three girls from trouble in short succession in the one eventful day only to have all three of them confess their love for him in just 5 minutes. Easy girls indeed! Suspiciously easy..

There isn’t much more to the setup, but it seems fairly popular so I’m guessing it has a decently fun writing style.

The art is definitely a winner here, seems to be the pro debut for doujinshi artist TwinBox. Pixiv: https://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?id=264932

The designs aren’t too derivative and are packed with individuality, and his soft lines and vibrant hues really pull you in. He also has a knack for restrained sexiness in his drawings that make them nice and erotic without giving too much away!

Hoping someone picks this up at some point as I’d really like to check it out!
