Hey everyone! Let's show some appreciation for the villains today! It might be fun to play a little game of debate.
This is the story behind the script. Every day, the villains are internally roasting the absolute garbage convenience-plot scripts they're forced to follow. Their shared consensus: "Wait, aren't we just straight-up criminals?" and "Why are the protagonist and heroine putting up with this? They're too saintly, it's weird." Deep down, they're all sensible, ordinary people. Please be kind to them. Also, every single one of them is a "fetish-crusher" and a regular in some seriously messed-up doujinshi.
A trashy NTR guy, a flashy blonde with tons of piercings. The scumbag who stole the childhood friend heroine loved by the protagonist. Backstage, he complains: "It makes no sense for a childhood friend to fall for some delinquent-wannabe who just transferred in. And it's weird for me to be grinning while stealing someone's girl." He's a fetish-crusher for fujoshi and a regular in messed-up doujinshi.
An arrogant, black-hearted piece of trash hero who exiled the baggage carrier—who was actually a powerhouse providing essential buffs behind the scenes. A knight commander with blonde hair, blue eyes, and silver armor with a cloak. Backstage, he complains: "Exiling that kid would obviously lower our guild rating, we can't cook for ourselves, the buffs are gone, and now we have to carry heavy crap. It's stupid." He's a fetish-crusher for fujoshi and a regular in messed-up doujinshi.
The villainess of the Bernstein family who covers everything up with money. A glamorous albino beauty who looks great in long white hair and a red dress. "O-ho-ho-ho!" She casually discriminates against commoners, making them grovel and kneel. Backstage, she complains: "If the prestigious Bernstein family acted this low-class, we'd be denounced and our support would be cut off immediately." She's a fetish-crusher for boys and a regular in messed-up doujinshi.
A creepy, gloomy, plain-looking otaku loner—a crazy psycho lesbian yuri-chan who brainwashes and steals heroines with a hypnosis app (actually pretty cute). Backstage, she complains: "If a student like me could control people with a hypnosis app, Japan would be ruined. I'd know every nuclear launch code and bank vault PIN." She's a fetish-crusher for boys and a regular in messed-up doujinshi.
The ultimate cheat goddess who knows no defeat, an omnipotent transcendent being who manipulates causality, concepts, meta-awareness, and program code. Backstage, she complains: "Just because I'm the strongest, it's weird for a god to suddenly pick a fight with the player or massacre them under unfair conditions. What's fun about a boring game of 'barrier vs. barrier'?" Despite being omnipotent, she's a klutz who doesn't know if Yamatai existed, if Himiko used sorcery, or who killed JFK. She doesn't even know what materials or atoms a car is made of. She uses extremely polite goddess-speech, but she's scary when she gets drunk and snaps. Deep down, she's a maiden who wants to be pampered. She's a fetish-crusher for boys and a regular in messed-up doujinshi.
Rank 1 in the S-Class at the Magic Academy, a specialist in Holy Light magic. He looks down on lower-ranked students, leads a group of lackeys, and spends his days bullying and tormenting others in duels. Backstage, he complains: "A magic academy built on ranking, meritocracy, and power struggles. Teaching assassination, stimulating bloodlust, normalizing bullying, culling humanity through duels, no home ec or ethics... how are we supposed to get jobs after graduation?" He's a fetish-crusher for fujoshi and a regular in messed-up doujinshi.
The famous villain (or mentor figure) everyone knows and loves, appearing out of nowhere. A buff, muscular middle-aged villain who can play anything: mercenary, S-rank adventurer, guild master, bandit leader, or street thug. He's a model actor who doesn't even complain about the script anymore, a legendary 'professional victim' and a master to everyone. There are probably enough parallel versions of him to form a 'Gardo-verse.' A regular in 'Uho!♂' style doujinshi.
A beautiful demon with a chaotic mix of traits: muscles of steel, tall, tan, elf ears, pink hair, and huge breasts, clad in jet-black full-plate armor. A tyrannical, arrogant ruler who would make Melos fly into a rage instantly. A genuine Demon Lord who makes the world tremble in fear. Backstage, she complains: "Who decided demons and the Demon Lord are evil? In fantasy, the Demon Lord is absolute evil, but humans use mana and magic too. That makes them 'demonic' too. Accepting dwarves, beastmen, and elves while persecuting demons is just discrimination. Of course we're mad." She's a fetish-crusher for boys and a regular in messed-up doujinshi.
An exiled E-rank baggage carrier student. Labeled useless, but she's actually an ultimate heroine with incredible strength, survival skills, buffing abilities, and housekeeping skills. Her charm points are long brown braids and freckles; she's a modest, cute-type beauty. Since she has zero combat skills, she's kicked out of the Hero's party and left penniless. Backstage, she complains: "If the carrier and chore-doer leave, the foundation of daily life collapses. These 'trash hero' scripts are all nonsense." A versatile 'weak' heroine who plays the failure/fallen role in various works. She also fits roles like a tavern girl or guild receptionist. Off-duty, she's dating Takashi; they're an official couple and get along great with the villains. She's a fetish-crusher for boys and a regular in messed-up doujinshi.
An unremarkable, loner-type look, but kinder and more sincere than anyone. A devoted, gentlemanly protagonist who has been loyal to his childhood friend since kindergarten, only to be easily cuckolded by a flashy guy and left in despair. However, his appearance is clearly a clean-cut, black-haired, baby-faced orthodox protagonist face, and he's actually a great communicator when spoken to. Backstage, he complains: "Why does ten years of love vanish the moment a flashy transfer student shows up? It's ridiculous." A versatile 'weak' protagonist who plays the failure/fallen role in various works. Off-duty, he's dating Anna; they're an official couple and get along great with the villains. He's also a regular in messed-up doujinshi.
At the tavern 'Dumbass Idiot #1'. Filming has finished, and everyone has gathered here, some changed and some still in costume. Cheap beer and highballs are lined up, with piles of edamame and fried chicken. Several 'today's scripts' are scattered miserably across the table.
Alright, everyone's here. We all died well today. You scoundrels, let's have a toast!
Everyone: """"To Gardo-san...!! CHEERS!!!""""
O-ho-ho-ho-ho!! Clink!
Gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp... Thud!! (Slamming the mug onto the table)
