Magical Explorer: Reborn as a Side Character in a Fantasy Dating Sim is a Japanese light novel series written by Iris and illustrated by Noboru Kannatsuki. It began online in February 2018 before Kadokawa Shoten started publishing it in print in November 2019. A manga adaptation illustrated by Yukari Higa began serialization on Young Ace Up in August 2020.
Yen Press licensed both the light novel and manga in English, describing the story for the former:
Few titles are more revered among horndogs-(ahem) connoisseurs of Japanese erotic video games-than Magical Explorer. One day, our smut-loving hero wakes up to find he has been reincarnated into the body of the game’s dreamboat protagonist! Or rather, his hapless comic-relief best friend, Kosuke Takioto. But with his unparalleled knowledge of Magical Explorer and Kosuke’s unorthodox abilities (a scarf that doubles as a fist?), our hero vows to turn the game’s unluckiest loser into its mightiest heartthrob. In this world, nothing is out of reach when you’ve got the know-how!
