An introduction to "The Executioner and Her Way of Life"

The Executioner and Her Way of Life is an award-winning night novel series that Warner Bros has turned into an anime.

It’s a story about a girl trying to kill a girl.

The two main characters are Menou the Executioner and Akari the Lost One. Lost Ones are people reborn, and they’re hunted by the Executioners. Akari, however, keeps returning.

Yen Press will release the novels in English via their Virgin Road imprint and here’s how they describe the story;

The Lost Ones are wanderers who come here from a distant world known as “Japan.” No one knows how or why they leave their homes. The only thing that is certain is that they bring disaster and calamity. The duty of exterminating them without remorse falls to Menou, a young Executioner. When she meets Akari, it seems like just another job…until she discovers it’s impossible to kill this girl! And when Menou begins to search for a way to defeat this immortality, Akari is more than happy to tag along! So begins a journey that will change Menou forever… In addition to being an intriguing addition to the ever popular isekai genre of light novels, Virgin Road is an intriguing release due to the fact that it includes elements not commonly seen in light novels released in English—a female protagonist and a yuri storyline.
