Romantic Killer by Waturu Momose

In this week’s manga pick we meet Anzu, an introverted high school girl with a disdain for romance, particularly with any boys that aren’t 2-dimensional. The story starts when she meets Riri, a fairy that comes from Magic Land, a place that harnesses its magical energy source from the “sparkly innocence of children’s hearts”. However, Magic Land is suffering a shortage of energy due to the declining birthrate in Japan. Thus the Magic Restoration Resolution was approved, a project that targets hopeless singles, doomed to die alone. And lo and behold, Anzu was chosen as the perfect test subject. The rest of the manga follows along as Riri throws every cheesy, unbelievable romance trope and an abundance of hot guys at Anzu, while she stubbornly attempts to thwart every one of his schemes.
