One day, 22-year-old Kanzaki Misuzu is suddenly transported into a strange world. Based on the pop-up screens she can access, it seems like she has entered some kind of RPG as a magic user! Luckily, she can use her gaming skills acquired as an otaku to make her way in this new world, but before she knows it, people start calling her the "Black Healing Hand!"

After the war, there are many "Extends" in the city, people whose bodies were modified to make them into dangerous weapons. Inui Juuzou is one of them, and he has no memories of his life and body before his head was transformed into a gun. Strangely enough, his head-gun is designed so that only someone behind him can pull the trigger. Juuzou makes a living by taking on cases involving Extends in the city, and he is assisted by Mary, an intelligent young woman that he has taken under his protection.

This is what tethysdust said this week:
Nothing really wowed me this time. My favorite would be "No Guns Life," for the SF setting, though the idea of a guy with a gun-head was a little silly to me. Isekai de "Kuro no Iyashite" tte Yoba Rete Imasu is another 'transported into an RPG world' story. Hotel Helheim could potentially have some interesting stories about the creatures in the underworld.


My opinion:
Hotel Helheim - If you like supernatural comedies, then you might like this manga.
Isekai de "Kuro no Iyashite" tte Yoba Rete Imasu - Another RPG gamer this week, but if you're into the idea of getting stuck in a video game like in previous weeks, then this manga is for you.
No Guns Life - If you're in the mood for action and want to see how a modified man with a gun as a head lives, then you should check out this manga instead.
