Junpei, who excels in close-quarters combat, Airi, a smart strategist, Ritsuko, a modern weapon master who controls medium and long range, and three people who have unique abilities even in different worlds, initially hunted elves. was continuing. However, the search was not going well, and the leader of the elves, Celsia, who had been hostile to Junpei and others until then, offered to cooperate. With the addition of Sercia, who specializes in magic, the party has become even more powerful. Their notoriety for stripping elves is high (so much so that they are treated as "gods" by the stripper organization), but there are those who feel good about their involvement. In "2", Mai is a new member.

"Ready, set... strip!"

  • Main Character #1

  • Main Character #2

  • Main Character #3


A 19-year-old Karateka & strongman with incredible fighting ability, Junpei is the muscle of the group as well as being the only male in the group. However, his rather rough way of saying things as well as his eye for beautiful women get him into trouble more often than not. He is constantly arguing with Celcia and obsessed about curry and, briefly, heliocentrism. Junpei abhors fantasy stories and might be atheist or agnostic. He is infatuated with Airi but is clueless about Celcia's feelings for him as well despite their constant bickering. Junpei carries a wallet filled with membership cards from various dojos, and a condom with the words "Use with Airi Only!" written on the wrapper.

A karate master aiming to become a martial artist. Said to have left a legend in his high school days, his fighting ability is at the strongest level, and he is especially good at foot techniques such as heel drop. He is a transcendent single-celled man who pushes things forward without thinking about the future, but because of that, he is pure, delicate, and fragile on the mental side. Because he doesn't think about anything, the words he utters hit the essence, and although he sometimes impresses those around him, he often ruins it with the lines he utters afterward. Although he is by no means smart, he has a side of him that is strangely rich in trivia. Heis an expert in astronomy, and extremely disliked of the fantasy idea that advocated the Ptolemaic theory due to the influence of a TV history program he saw when he was young.

He has the brute force ability to take off the elves in an instant, and because he mainly takes them off even in the work, he is constantly criticized by the elves, and this is a factor in spreading the notoriety of "those who hunt elves . Even after collecting all the "spell fragments" and returning to Japan, in "Returns", due to the effect of hunting elves on a long trip, if you have long ears, you will unconsciously take them off regardless of whether you are a man or an animal. On the other hand, he does not attack Sercia or other women that could cause injury.

He has been an avid fan of Airi since he was in Japan, and he shows a favorable attitude towards her, but Airi himself thinks of him as nothing more than a "bad brother", while Ritsuko and Celsia. I don't even notice how you feel. She loves curry and eats it deliciously even if it's super spicy. Especially in Jimbocho, there are many curry shops that he frequents, such as the European-style curry shop Bondi (a real shop), and it has become a sacred place for him. However, curry does not exist in the fantasy world, which is also one of the reasons why he dislikes the fantasy world.

His favorite phrases are "I'll teach you the secrets of karate!" and "I hate fantasy!". After returning to Japan, he made his debut as a fighter. He went undefeated on his debut and won two consecutive MMA Grand Prix championships. He visits to help Mai, obtains a photo book published in Japan in the past when Airi was an idol, and returns to the present with it. After Sercia was brainwashed by Marple, it was discovered that he had a habit of unconsciously stopping the opponent if he tried to hit a female opponent seriously, even if the opponent was an enemy. From her anger at brainwashing Sercia in the battle on the Sorin Islands, she draws out enough power to defeat all the magic beasts she summons with a single blow. He has risen from her early days with her skills to take off the concept of "monster skin" and her fighting ability to defeat even huge monsters as mentioned above.

Abilities[]

From the beginning, his fighting ability and ability to defeat even giant monsters have improved.

Even after collecting all the "spell fragments" and returning to Japan, in "Returns", due to the effect of hunting elves on a long trip, if you have long ears, you will unconsciously take them off regardless of whether you are a man or an animal. On the other hand, he does not attack Sercia or other women that could cause injury.


A 24-year-old Japanese-American talented actress, Airi is as skilled as she is beautiful. Able to cut from one emotion to another in an instant, and even disguise herself as someone else, Airi's talents come in useful for getting out of sticky situations that require trickery rather than brute force. Airi also can quickly and accurately assess any given situation and plan for its eventual outcome.

Although aware of Junpei's blatant affections for her. she does not reciprocate (although she does use them to her advantage, for example when getting Junpei to volunteer to be live bait to catch a giant shark by saying "Pretty please"). In the manga, Airi hints that she is fully aware of the affections amongst the group members (i.e. everyone else likes Junpei). Furthermore, in volume 19 of the manga, she realizes that she is actually in love with Junpei though it is uncertain if Junpei realized this (Airi was wearing a realistic bear costume when she kissed Junpei, but Junpei noticed the perfume on the bear).

Hollywood actress who won an Oscar at a young age. She has short black hair, and in another world, she acts in a fantasy-style costume from the movie she appears in. As the leader of the "those who hunt elves", she uses her acting skills as an actress, disguise with special make-up, and tricks such as mind control that make use of her clear mind to take off the elves.

He is calm and collected and usually calm, but when he gets angry, he will mercilessly retaliate, and when Junpei breaks her favorite teacup, he blames him with a smile, making him the scariest person. The sword hanging from her waist is a theatrical decoration without a blade itself, but her brilliant performance makes it look like a real one with a blade, and it makes you feel as if he cut down her opponent from her sword fight experience. I have deceived.

After returning to Japan, he won her second Oscar award. She was an idol in Japan 11 years ago when Mai was 3 years old. She is embarrassed by the existence of her photo book, which was published at the time. She appears to be her "sister" as well as Sercia. She feels uncomfortable with Marple's behavior, and to jump into her bosom, she is brainwashed by making her contract. She tricks Marple (and Leviathan) into begging Lotta to resummons her by suggesting she cut Lotta and her followers down.

Abilities[]

Airi carries a katana and a make-up compact kit. She is the leader of the "those who hunt elves", and with her acting skills as an actress, disguised with her special makeup (Master of Disguise), and mind control techniques that make use of her clear mind, she can capture elves. take off. Her powers of observation and insight are considerable, and she can see through the lies of others, and she can tell the lies she has told herself.

The sword hanging from her waist is a theatrical decoration without a blade itself, but her brilliant performance makes it look like a real one with a blade, and it makes you feel as if he cut down the opponent from her sword fight experience, which makes It deceivable. Her I.Q is 450.

Her is calm and collected and usually calm, but when he gets angry, he will mercilessly retaliate, and when Junpei breaks his favorite teacup, he blames him with a smile, making him the scariest person.


A 16-year-old high school girl and military otaku. She's a tomboy but not to the point where she loses her femininity. She drives and maintains the tank (to which she has a strong attachment) and also acts as a sniper from time to time; she often sets landmines and booby traps. Despite her love of modern military hardware, Ritsuko also displays a more sensitive and innocent side: she falls in love with the cute Pichi and maintains a belief in Father Christmas long after her peers had abandoned it and is also frightened to death of ghosts. Throughout the manga, she gradually falls in love with Junpei. Ritsuko carries a Howa Type 64 Battle Rifle, SIG SG 550 assault rifle, SIG P226 semiautomatic pistol, Heckler & Koch USP, G36 Assault Rifle, PSG1 Sniper Rifle, a sheath knife, some C4 and a Colt M16A2 Assault Rifle.

When she was MUJI, she was a high school girl and had a ponytail as her trademark. She was a high school student at the time, so she was mainly in uniform. Since she was summoned during the survival game in "2", she wears a military outfit. A military maniac who goes to see the Self-Defense Forces exercises, he is extremely knowledgeable about firearms and traps and has a talent for using all kinds of weapons, from pistols to tanks. On the other hand, he has a delicate body and is not suitable for close combat like Junpei, so if you can't carry a weapon with you due to the rules of the city you visit, you are the weakest among the members, so when you are targeted by Birgitta, you will be cornered.

He seems to have been friends with Junpei since he was in Japan, and although he has faint feelings for Junpei, he is completely unaware of it. When she sees Junpei holding Orenoko, who has turned into a baby, and misunderstands him as his child, she sometimes goes out of control due to intense beliefs when Junpei gets involved with other women. He loves animals and has even sacrificed himself to protect them. She's not good with ghosts, but for some reason, she forgets that Mike is a ghost, and she's okay with out-of-body experiences (body swapping).

He has an artistic flair, and the works that he drew on a whim were evaluated by the jury chairman of a picture book competition, and he also drew illustrations for novels as a part-time job. After returning to Japan, he entered university. She is very wary of Mai as her love rival (or potential partner).

In the manga, she demonstrates a clear affection to Junpei and is shown to be extremely jealous when Junpei is approached by another girl romantically.

The reviewer said that the Hanafuda mechanism is surprisingly full-fledged, in its purpose in advancing the story. While the stripping matches with the series plot, the volume of the winning and losing dialogue doesn't match in balance being too noisy compared to the story roughs. He mentioned that it was bothersome to cut the dialogue lines when a high score was reached."
