Among mobile games, there's something called a bonsai game (盆栽 Game).
It's a compound of 'bonsai' (盆栽), which means cultivating plants, and the loanword 'game.'
The important question is, 'Why on earth did it get such a weird name?'
The reason is precisely the bonsai game's defining feature.
Short playtime and quickly completed daily quests.
Just like watering a plant once a day is all you need, if you put in at most an hour a day consistently,
you can enjoy the main story with no problems—that's how it got its name.
Well, after that, the PvP content is all about spending money and competing to see whose wallet is thicker.
So what's the fun in a game that's so easy and only about spending money?
That just shows you don't get it.
These games have a different goal from other types of games.
Another name for bonsai game is
'Pretty-Girl Game.'
The main content is pulling cute girls through gacha, investing resources in them, and voyeuristically watching them grow and live their daily lives!
So, needless to say, what makes these games meaningful is the gorgeous illustrations and the charm of the female characters.
The game I transmigrated into was one of those games.
Various types of cute girls attending a hunter school.
The Player raises them with affection, love, and money.
The game is about using those raised girls to prevent the world's destined destruction!
《Velvet School Life!》
......But don't you think something's a bit odd?
Where have all the guys gone, while cute girls are saving the world from crisis?
Honestly, men are naturally stronger and better suited for combat, right?
Of course, male characters do appear in the game.
But if they go up against a female character wearing nothing but bikini armor, the male characters just get wrecked.
Why is that......?
I didn't know either until I transmigrated.
I figured it was just one of those industry realities—pretty girls had to be strong for a bonsai game to sell.
But it wasn't.
This place, the world of Velvet School Life, is
a reversed world where men are weak and women are strong.
And in that place, I became a 'man who wields a sword.'
