Premise [edit]

Teenager Hideki Nishimura plays a massively multiplayer online role-playing game called Legendary Age (LA), but one day he proposes online to a girl who tells him she is really a man, so he swears off online marriages. Two years later, he has been involved with a guild and eventually accepts an in-game marriage offer from his persistent guildmate, Ako. When the guild has their first-ever real-life meeting, Hideki is shocked to discover that his teammates are not only all girl gamers, but they also attend his school. The story follows their adventures as they form a school club to play the game while Hideki tries to help Ako, who is infatuated with Hideki as his game character, try to separate fantasy from reality.

Characters [edit]

Hideki Nishimura ( 西村 英騎 , Nishimura Hideki )
Voiced by: Toshiyuki Toyonaga[1] (Japanese); Dallas Reid[2] (English)
The viewpoint character of the light novels, Hideki is a first-year high school student who plays Legendary Age (LA), under the name Rusian ( ルシアン , Rushian ), a male knight. At first, he distrusts girls online after having been rejected by a girl who told him that she was actually a guy in real life. He is Ako's in-game husband in Legendary Age after reluctantly accepting her many repeated in-game proposals. Over the course of the series, Hideki begins to develop real feelings for Ako and attempts to help her differentiate reality from the gaming world. Outside of LA, he used to be an otaku.LN 1 [3]
Ako Tamaki ( 玉置 亜子 , Tamaki Ako )
Voiced by: Rina Hidaka[1] (Japanese); Trina Nishimura[2] (English)
The cover girl of the series, Ako is Hideki's schoolmate who goes by the game name Ako ( アコ ), a female cleric, in LA. She was first Hideki's in-game wife as a result of her repeated in-game proposals to him and his reluctant acceptance.LN 1 In real life, she attends the same school as Hideki, but was often absent due to her heavy addiction to the online game. She was shy and a loner at school, but is extremely happy to meet Rusian in real life. She had a hard time distinguishing between the gaming world and reality, as she believed she is Hideki's actual wife and will often and casually call her guildmates by their game character names at school. Occasionally, Ako would go into psychotic trances in reaction to non-gaming "normies", saying that they should die.LN 1 [4] Ironically, despite being a recluse at first, she is the only one of the group that can cook.
Akane Segawa ( 瀬川 茜 , Segawa Akane )
Voiced by: Inori Minase[1] (Japanese); Jad Saxton[2] (English) [a]
A petite twin-tailed blonde classmate, she despised otakus at first and didn't like when Hideki acted like one or tried to interact with her. However, she is actually a gamer herself under the moniker Schwein ( シュヴァイン , Shuvain ), a male knight (sword dancer).[5] Her character name is German for pig, which she did not know until Kyo informs her offline, much to her chagrin. Although she is popular at school, she had turned down many boys so she can have more gaming time.LN 1 [5]
Kyō Goshōin ( 御聖院 杏 , Goshōin Kyō )
Voiced by: M·A·O[1] (Japanese); Mallorie Rodak[2] (English) [b]
The student council president at Hideki's school and the leader of the Alley Cats guild in LA. She has long dark hair and goes under the character name Apricot ( アプリコット , Apurikotto ), a male mage at the beginning of the series. Her guild mates call her Master. She comes from a wealthy family; her father is on the school board, and her family has several companies. She often uses in-game purchases to boost her game attributes, but does not depend on her family's money but on her personal investments to fund it. Outside of the guild, she didn't have any friends as her family didn't give her much chance to socialize. She sponsors the creation of the school's game club.LN 1 [6]
Nanako Akiyama ( 秋山 奈々子 , Akiyama Nanako )
Voiced by: Hitomi Ōwada[7] (Japanese); Tia Ballard (English)
Akane's friend who discovers she plays online games, and agrees to keep it a secret. Shortly afterwards, she begins playing LA under the character name Sette ( セッテ ),Ep. 5 who is a summoner. She has purplish blue hair then pink in the anime.[8]
Yui Saito ( 斉藤 結衣 , Saitō Yui )
Voiced by: Yoshino Nanjō[7] (Japanese); Monica Rial[9] (English)
Hideki's teacher who watches over him and the girls, and becomes their club's advisor.Ep. 3 She gives him advice on how to interact with girls and balance his gaming life. It is later revealed that she was the LA player Nekohime ( 猫姫 ), a catgirl who rejected Hideki's in-game proposal two years prior, stating that she was actually a guy.LN 1 She has a large fan following in LA.[10]
