Synopsis
The story follows an ordinary otaku who faints while eating raw pork liver, discovering that the rumors about being able to reincarnate in another world by doing so aren't so unfounded after all. But now, as a small and cute pig, the boy meets Jess, a beautiful young woman capable of reading people's thoughts.
Buta no Liver is, therefore, a Japanese light novel written by Takuma Sakai and illustrated by Asagi Tōsaka. ASCII Media Works has published seven volumes since March 2020 under its Dengeki Bunko imprint.
Finally, a manga adaptation with art by Minami began serialization in ASCII Media Works' seinen manga magazine Dengeki Maoh in August 2020.
