Official Story Summary (via Yen Press)
Seiichiro Kondou, a workaholic accountant, finds himself transported to a fantasy world after falling through a mysterious portal. Rather than panic, he does what he knows best—asks for a job. He joins the Romany Kingdom’s Accounting Department, but his peaceful balance-sheet life is interrupted when he crosses paths with a stoic knight, Aresh.
As their paths intertwine on a dangerous journey to cleanse miasma from a cursed forest, so too does an unexpected relationship begin to bloom. With logical plans and emotional growth on both sides, this isekai BL explores what happens when duty, romance, and personal ambition collide.
Maria’s Take
The Other World's Books Depend on the Bean Counter is shaping up to be a heartfelt isekai BL with mature themes, elegant writing, and a refreshing take on fantasy world tropes. If you're looking for more than just magic battles and overpowered heroes, this slow-burn romance might be your next must-watch in Winter 2026.
