Bogus Skill “Fruitmaster” Short Synopsis: A supernaturally skilled gardener discovers he can eat more than one Devil Fruit without perishing.

Tsuma, Shougakusei ni Naru Short Synopsis: A normal family’s matriarch is reincarnated as a grade schooler. Amun: I signed up for this one simply because the premise is…unusual to say the least.

SAO Alternative: Gun Gale Online II Short Synopsis: Season 2 of Gun Gale Online, where a little girl plays a gun-based VR MMO and kicks butt.
