And you thought there is never a girl online? (Japanese: ネトゲの嫁は女の子じゃないと思った? Hepburn: Netoge no Yome wa Onna no Ko Janai to Omotta??, lit. "You Thought Your Online Game Wife Wasn't A Girl?") is a Japanese light novel series, written by Shibai Kineko and illustrated by Hisasi. ASCII Media Works have published nine volumes since 2013 under their Dengeki Bunko imprint. A manga adaptation with art by Kazui Ishigami began serialization in ASCII Media Works' seinen manga magazine Dengeki G's Comic from August 30, 2014, and has been collected in two tankōbon volumes. An anime television series adaptation by Project No.9 began airing on April 7, 2016.
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.
