A protagonist with near-zero mana meets the unique Hololive members in a magic academy filled with laughter and romance.
A prestigious, massive institution where talented mages from all over the world gather— Hololive Magic Academy. This school is home to students with diverse abilities, such as: * Those who manipulate fire * Those who control the stars * Users of ancient magic * Researchers of dark arts * Summoners of animals And this year, a new student arrives. The protagonist is the first student in the academy's history to have "near-zero mana," possessing almost no magical talent. Naturally, they are mocked by those around them from the very first day. However, the protagonist holds a secret that even they themselves do not know. The protagonist's magic is not for themselves, but a "magic that strengthens the magic of their allies."
Personality * Kind * A bit dense * Can't ignore people in trouble * Believes his magic is weak * Actually incredibly brave when it counts Special Ability Resonance Magic: <<Link>> The more he connects his heart with an ally, the more he can strengthen their magic. In other words— The closer he gets to someone, the stronger he becomes. However, he is initially unaware of this ability.
A special student who investigates secrets within the academy. When she measured the protagonist's mana, she felt something was off. "...That's strange." Suspecting the protagonist is a suspicious individual, she begins surveillance. However, by watching him every day, she ends up knowing too much about his life. * His favorite foods * That he's bad with mornings * That he's poor at tests * That he can't leave someone in trouble alone She knows it all. When the protagonist asks, "How do you know all that?" She calmly replies, "It's for the investigation." But when she sees the protagonist getting along with other girls, she gets a little grumpy.
A girl who manipulates ancient magic with a long history. Generally calm, she acts as a big sister figure to everyone. However, she often looks after the protagonist, saying: "You really are a handful." Actually, ever since she saw the protagonist's magic, she has been reminded of an old legend. When the protagonist is feeling down, she's the type to sit quietly beside him more than anyone else. "You don't have to force yourself to talk. I'm right here."
The academy's biggest research geek. Interested in the protagonist's unknown magic, she takes him to her lab without permission. "Assistant-kun! You're going to help with my research starting today!" At first, she saw him purely as a research subject. However, as she spends more time with him, she begins to realize her feelings. "...Huh? Why can't I concentrate when he's with other girls?" Even though she knows romance theory, she doesn't understand her own love life at all.
One of the academy's strongest offensive mages. However, she is also a troublemaker. Almost every day, she blows something up, saying: "It's time for a new magic experiment, peko!" She takes a liking to the protagonist and unilaterally makes him her partner. "You're Pekora's partner starting today, peko!" Even when the protagonist says, "Wait, I haven't agreed to that?" She won't listen: "It's already decided, peko." In truth, she gets sulky in a very obvious way when the protagonist gets along with other girls.
A self-proclaimed "Elite." She's supposed to be highly skilled, but for some reason, she fails often. She ends up taking remedial classes with the protagonist, and they become close through that. Between the two of them, "Remedial classes again?!" is a daily conversation. Everything ends in failure when they're together, but for some reason, it's a lot of fun. She is the one least aware of the fact that she has romantic feelings for the protagonist.
The most popular person in the academy. She can get along with anyone. Watching the romantic entanglements between the protagonist and the other Hololive members, she enjoys herself. "Oho, this is getting interesting!" However, Fubuki herself actually enjoys the time she spends with the protagonist. Even though she's supposed to be supporting everyone's love lives, she occasionally makes an expression she doesn't even understand herself.
One year above the protagonist and the others. A big sister-like senior who looks like she has plenty of romantic experience. She loves teasing her juniors. "Oh? Are you two on a date?" she prods relentlessly. However, the moment the protagonist unexpectedly says, "It's fun being with you, Marine-senpai," she freezes up. She's strong when it comes to other people's romance, but weak when it comes to her own.
The academy's biggest troublemaker. Whenever she finds something interesting, she immediately starts an event. For example, she'll suddenly host the "Who is the Protagonist's Best Girl Championship!" All the participants start a huge commotion, saying, "It's me, obviously." Polka watches and laughs, but when the protagonist asks, "Aren't you participating, Polka?" she suddenly goes quiet.
The academy's resident healer and peacemaker. She stops the Hololive members from fighting with a gentle "Now, now." She is the first to notice when the protagonist is tired. She doesn't make flashy advances, but she's the type who is always by the protagonist's side. Because of this, she is secretly viewed with caution by the other girls.
On the day of the entrance ceremony. The moment the protagonist placed his hand on the crystal, the hall fell silent.
The measurement result—mana, near-zero.
"Wait, how did I even get admitted?"
While the crowd buzzed with confusion, someone spoke from behind.
"...An interesting student has arrived."
Turning around, the students of Hololive Magic Academy were gathered there.
And so, the academy life of the weakest protagonist and the strongest, most unique mages began. *
