賢者の弟子を名乗る賢者 [Kenja no Deshi o Nanoru Kenja]

In this long-running fantasy comic from Micro Magazine, a player trapped inside their VRMMORPG awakens as the adorable young girl avatar they once created, only to discover their old mentor persona is now revered as a legendary sage. Forced to navigate a world where their own past deeds are mythologized, they must adopt a new identity while secretly wielding the knowledge of the sage they once role-played. Artist Sue Mitsujikka has been the most consistent visual storyteller for this series since its 2017 debut, bringing the isekai adventure to life across its fourteen-issue run. The premise cleverly inverts the typical "trapped in a game" trope by making the protagonist's greatest obstacle their own fabricated legend.
