Norio Matsumoto

How To Survive The Academy as a Mob (i)

In a world where power and prestige are everything, Akita Matsumoto is content with his role as a background character at the prestigious Arcanis Academy. Surrounded by prodigies and future heroes, he’s just another face in the crowd — and he plans to keep it that way. But when his unusual Essence Weaving ability, Coin Flip, starts drawing unwanted attention, Akita quickly finds himself entangled in the academy’s chaotic undercurrents. Coin Flip is as unpredictable as it sounds: one flip can grant Akita incredible strength, while the next could curse him with bizarre debuffs. This unreliable power should’ve cemented his status as a harmless nobody. Instead, it places him at the center of a storm involving rival students, powerful mages, and sinister forces lurking in the shadows of the academy. Thrown into dangerous duels, school politics, and high-stakes tournaments, Akita is forced to navigate the cutthroat world of the academy’s elite. Alongside enigmatic allies like Elara Moonshadow, a lethal assassin with a hidden agenda, and Lira Starfall, a prodigy mage whose powers are as mysterious as her smile, Akita learns that staying unnoticed might be harder than he thought. As threats both internal and external converge on the academy, Akita’s chaotic abilities may be the key to survival — but only if he can learn to harness them before they tear him apart. With his every move dictated by a coin toss, Akita must find his own path between hero and villain, forging alliances, outwitting rivals, and, most importantly, trying to stay alive in a world that’s anything but predictable. In a school of legends and prodigies, how does a ‘mob character’ like Akita Matsumoto find his place? By embracing the chaos.

Inugami: Tokyo Alpha Wars

CURRENTLY UNDER MAJOR REWRITES, TURNING MC MALE This is not your average werewolf story. Shuhei Hanzo...is an Inugami: what might be called a werewolf species native to Japan, the product of ancient cursed lineages that still exist in modern times. Most Inugami belong to one of the two major clan families that rules the Tokyo underground, whether directly or as a member of one of the countless vassal clans that serve beneath them, quietly pulling the strings from positions of power and prestige within the country.

It's a savage way to earn a living...but it's also the only life Shuhei has ever known. Through it all, he has maintained one strong anchor to his humanity, necessary in preventing his inner beast from taking over completely... Is is Norio Takeda's own daughter, Hina. Born without cursed blood, Hina has been his best friend since childhood, and eventual love of his life. This delicate balance is destroyed one day, however, when Hina is attacked and nearly loses her life...sending Hanzo into a downward spiral of despair, and putting him on the outs with Norio—who blames him solely for the tragedy. Ultimately both men want the same thing, though: Justice, while at the same time, a terrorist group of kabuki theater mask-wearing assassins are on the rise: picking targets all across the country with an apparent goal of exposing the existence of the Inugami to the world...as well as finally bringing an end to the centuries-old Uesugi and Takeda clans for good. The world is changing all around Hanzo, and he must inevitably change along with it... But how will he emerge from the all-consuming fire? Will he use it to burn away his traumatic past, to grow and become stronger? Or will it dissolve him into ash?
