Creator: Chūni Ikei (art), Chira Shinoura (original story), Ogipote (character design)
Summary: Apparently, I’m the useless. Out of our whole class that got isekai’d, I’m the only one labeled useless—totally unwanted… sob. But seriously, dumping me in a monster-infested forest to die? That’s just cruel!
Still, I survived thanks to my cheat-tier magic powers.
Now it’s up to me—Kento, your resident chuuni—to save my classmates with my trusty skeleton squad!
…And hey, if some lovely ladies want to pamper me along the way, who am I to say no, right?

Title: The Healer Who Was Banished From His Party, Is, in Fact, the Strongest (Party kara Tsuihō Sareta Sono Chiyushi, Jitsuwa Saikyō ni Tsuki)
Creator: Miwa Narumi (art), Kagekinoko (original story), Kakao Hantan (character design)
Summary: A healer gets booted from his party because the leader notices he isn’t really contributing much to the team. Soon enough, the healer must look for new members to party with. After finding a cute martial artist to work together with, he reveals his secret: while he’s a fairly mediocre healer, he actually fights well in close combat. This is the story of a support who’s secretly a DPS, and where the entire conflict stems from the fact that he never told his old party he was a DPS.
Narumi launched the manga in Futabasha’s Gaugau Monster magazine in February 2020.
Kagekinoko launched the story on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō website in May 2018, and the latest update was in December 2022.
