# Plus-Sized Elf

Plus-Sized Elf (Japanese: エルフさんは痩せられない。, Hepburn: Erufu-san wa Yaserarenai, lit. 'Ms. Elf Can't Lose Weight') is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Synecdoche. It was originally serialized on Wani Books' Comic Gum website from December 2016 to June 2020, with its individual chapters collected into eight tankōbon volumes. After Wani Books' license to the series expired, Synecdoche self-published the series from April to May 2021, then started a continuation manga titled Plus-Sized Elf: Second Helping! (新・エルフさんは痩せられない。, Shin Erufu-san wa Yaserarenai, lit. 'Ms. Elf Can't Lose Weight New') in Akita Shoten's monthly seinen magazine, Dokodemo Young Champion, in October 2021, with its individual chapters collected into four tankōbon volumes. Both manga are licensed for English release in North America by Seven Seas Entertainment. An anime television series adaptation produced by Elias aired from July to September 2024.

## Plot

One night, Tomoatsu Naoe, an osteopathic massage therapist, meets a new client. She is Elfuda, an elf from another world who gained an excessive amount of weight during her stay on Earth by eating French fries, who needs his help shedding pounds so she can be able to return through the portal that leads her home. As Tomoatsu assists with Elfuda's weight loss, many other overweight mythical creatures come seeking his help.

    An otherworldly elf who became fat from eating too many French fries on Earth and is seeking help losing weight in order to use the portal which leads back to her home.

She decides to live with Tomoatsu while following his weight loss regimen. In her universe, she is a skilled archer. Most of the creatures she meets from her world do not get along with her, due to the fact that she is often rude to them.

### Kuroeda (黒枝)

    Voiced by: Rena Hasegawa (Japanese); Elissa Cuellar (English)
    A dark elf who works at a convenience store. She is troubled by her large buttocks caused by long hours of standing and no exercise.

    A pig-like orc who used to be overweight, as orcs naturally are in her world.

Her hobby is cooking, which she uses to lure her prey. She is the only mythical creature not in Tomoatsu's group of clients. As such, she acts as the de facto antagonist of the series.

| Tomoatsu Naoe, an employee at the Smiley Boar relaxation clinic, is charged with taking care of the last customer of the day, an extremely obese woman by the name of Elfuda who wants to slim down. As he gives her a massage, her cap slips off, revealing a set of long pointed ears identifying her as an elf. Elfuda has come through a portal from another world to partake in Earth's French fries, which she has come to enjoy over her own world's bland diet, but is now unfortunately stuck on Earth because she must have the same weight she had at her arrival to be able to use the portal again. Forced to cooperate, Tomoatsu subjects Elfuda to a strictly regulated dietary and exercise regimen. One month later, Elfuda is back to her former slender self. She returns home, but soon afterward Tomoatsu encounters her again in a fast food restaurant, once more with an obese figure from overeating on fries and overconfident about Earth's weight-loss treatments. At a nearby convenience store, a female employee is revealed as a dark elf. ||||||

| Late at night, Tomoatsu and Elfuda happen to run into each other at a convenience store, where they are both buying snacks. Here, they meet Kuroeda, the store's cashier and only employee. With Elfuda being an elf and Kuroeda being a dark elf, the two women are immediately at odds, as their races are sworn enemies in their world. Having learned about Elfuda's prior results with Tomoatsu's weight loss regimen, Kuroeda requests his assistance to help slim down her big butt in order for her to properly wear her special garment that allows her to use magic. The next day, Tomoatsu meets Kusahanada, an Alraune who runs a flower shop and suffers from shoulder pain due to a large flower growing on her head in the continuous sunny weather. Noticing her poor posture, he gives her a corrective back brace, plus an umbrella to shade her flower in the sunlight to keep it from growing out of control. As a token of her thanks, Kusahanada gives Tomoatsu two evening spa coupons, but tells him to beware of an ogre that appears at the sauna at night. ||||||

| To avoid the ogre he was warned about, Tomoatsu gives the evening spa coupons he received to Elfuda so that the sweat from the sauna will boost her metabolism and aid in her weight loss. At the bathhouse, she meets up with Kuroeda, and the two are arguing with each other once again. Together, they both end up using the spa's sauna, where they meet Oga, the aforementioned ogre. Oga explains to them how much ogres like herself love alcohol, and how drinking too much of it while visiting Earth gave her a beer belly. After her sauna visit, Elfuda, along with Tomoatsu, runs into Mero, a mermaid fishmonger who can take the form of a human through a maca extract potion. As she wishes to abstain from being seen in her true form while on Earth, she developed flabby arms as she was unable to regulate her weight by swimming, this task being too hard for her to do in human form. After Tomoatsu suggests doing bicep curls and wall pushups to manage the weight in her arms, Mero gives him a container full of salmon roe as a token of her appreciation. As Tomoatsu runs to get Elfuda more French fries, a grey dog is seen walking up to a nearby store. ||||||

| Tomoatsu and Elfuda are going for a jog in the park that happens to also be where the portal between Earth and the other world lies. As Elfuda prepares to eat more French fries, a dog walks up to them, wanting her fry. Tomoatsu becomes overly affectionate while petting her, and she turns into a human; the dog in question, Laika, is actually a lycanthrope with the ability to change between human and werewolf forms. Laika is seeking to lose weight due to consuming an excess amount of treats that were offered to her. Later, at a local gym, Tomoatsu, along with all his other clients, are all swimming at the gym's pool, getting more exercise in. He meets Oku, an orc that closely resembles his boss, Akiho, albeit in pig-like humanoid form. Since orcs are never known to be in shape in her world, Oku came to Earth to learn about dieting and discovered that aquatic exercise works best for losing weight for someone of her size. Afterwards, at Smiley Boar, Oku approaches Tomoatsu, now having gained her weight back due to the gym's pool being closed for renovations, in need of his help to learn about other methods of exercise. ||||||
| 5 | "The Empress of the Park and the Demonic Dinner" Transliteration: "Kōen no Nyotei to Yoru no Mashoku" (Japanese: 公園の女帝と夜の魔食) | Ryu Yajima | Yuki Takabayashi | Ryu Yajima | August 4, 2024 (2024-8-4) |
| Tomoatsu, Elfuda, Kuroeda, and Oga are at a park where Oga engages positively with the children. She soon becomes infatuated with Kobo, an ill-tempered kobold who has claimed the playground as her territory and demands candy from the group to allow them to continue using it. Kobo justifies her actions by stating that she was abandoned by her parents and is simply trying to survive. However, Elfuda observes that her physique suggests otherwise, noting that someone truly starving would not have such excess weight. When she finds herself stuck in a playground tire after struggling to dodge Elfuda's arrows, Tomoatsu recommends that Kobo engage in facial exercises and adopt a healthier diet. In return for these suggestions, Kobo agrees to honor her promise to Tomoatsu not to misbehave any further. Later, at Smiley Boar, Elfuda notices Tomoatsu's own weight gain, prompting Tomoatsu to embark on a weight loss regimen, which proves ineffective. He eventually discovers that the source of his weight gain was a satyr named Satero, who had hypnotized him into overeating in order to feed off his avarice. Kuroeda and Elfuda step in to assist him, with Elfuda using her arrows to forcibly remove Satero's clothing, causing her to flee in embarrassment. Recognizing that satyrs have a strong bond with their prey, Elfuda suggests that all the mythical beings under Tomoatsu's care reside with him for his protection, while Satero observes from a distance near his apartment. ||||||
| 6 | "The Hindsight Bones and the Snowy Dragon" Transliteration: "Tsuioku no Hone to Rokka no Ryū" (Japanese: 追憶の骨と六花の竜) | Unknown | Unknown | Unknown | August 11, 2024 (2024-8-11) |
| On a snowy day, within Tomoatsu's apartment, Laika is chewing on a bone. As she ventures beneath Tomoatsu's bed, she accidentally retrieves a skull, which leads Tomoatsu, Elfuda, and Oku to discover an entire skeleton—an accumulation of bones that Laika gathered over time. The skeleton reanimates and introduces herself as Honeda, a former mage who was hung for treason and has been reincarnated as a skeleton that wandered to Earth. Utilizing magic, she reconstructs her appearance, resulting in a flabby physique. After receiving help from Tomoatsu to lose weight, she finally finds peace, only for her to return to life once more and remain on Earth. Later, as Elfuda and Kuroeda are jogging, Tomoatsu rushes to work; Elfuda then stumbles upon a body concealed beneath the snow. After transporting it back to Tomoatsu's apartment, they discover it to be Gonda, a dragon who had been out for a walk to shed some weight but succumbed to drowsiness in the snow. Kuroeda proposes assisting Gonda in her weight loss efforts in order to obtain her dragon treasure. While engaging in arm swimming exercises with Tomoatsu, Gonda’s tail unexpectedly emerges from her shirt, as Elfuda and Kuroeda had been concealing her identity as a dragon, which causes Tomoatsu to stand frozen in shock due to his fear of reptiles. In return for adhering to her exercise regimen, she offers Elfuda and Kuroeda her treasure, which turns out to be decorative beads intended for a toilet sink basin. ||||||
| 7 | "Potatoes of Shame and the Titan's Fist" Transliteration: "Chijoku no Imo to Taitan no Kyoken" (Japanese: 恥辱の芋とタイタンの巨拳) | Toshikatsu Tokoro | Yuki Takabayashi | Shigenori Awai | August 18, 2024 (2024-8-18) |
| To celebrate her weight loss, Elfuda treats herself to French fries, only for her to be the burger restaurant's 10,000th customer, winning a year's supply of French fries as a prize. Much to Oga and Kuroeda's surprise, both Elfuda and Tomoatsu have gained an enormous amount of weight. Kuroeda detects a magical spell on the fries, leading the group to suspect that Satero is responsible for the weight gain, who later appears at Tomoatsu's apartment. Vowing revenge being embarrassed when she was stripped naked in front of Tomoatsu, she targeted Elfuda due to her fondness for French fries, resulting in her clothing tearing off from her flabby stature. However, Elfuda is unfazed, as she feels no shame thanks to Tomoatsu's daily massages. After Elfuda congratulates Tomoatsu on Satero's defeat, his clothes also tear, prompting Satero to flee in embarrassment once again. Later, Tomoatsu, Elfuda, Oga, Oku, and Mero visit Akiho's boxing gym for some light sparring. While Elfuda, Oku, and Mero understand the intent, Oga takes it too far, albeit as a joke. A large cyclops woman named Hitome arrives at the gym to spar with the group; she is paired with Oga, as they share similar builds. However, instead of engaging in light sparring, the two women end up in a full-scale fight. ||||||

| As Tomoatsu's boss, Akiho, shows off her new yoga outfit to him, she hands him a flyer for a newly opened yoga studio, "Hot Yoga", which is owned by a friend of hers, as Tomoatsu is concerned about the lack of weight loss from all of his clients. Because of the studio's name, the women mistakenly strip down naked, believing it to be a sauna. After they get dressed, Tomoatsu guides them through a series of yoga poses. Meanwhile, Satero observes from outside but yet again flees in embarassment at the suggestive nature of the poses. As the session continues on, tensions rise with Elfuda and Kuroeda arguing, while Oga and Hitome engage in another fight to settle their previous sparring match; despite the commotion, Honeda remains focused and continues her yoga practice. Later, when Gonda enters the studio to explore yoga, Tomoatsu's fear of reptiles causes him to faint once more. ||||||

| Kuroeda concocts a magical potion disguised as a soda bottle and leaves it in Tomoatsu's apartment, intended for Elfuda. However, when Tomoatsu takes a sip of it, his clients discover that his body has shrunk to the size of a child. Elfuda suspects Satero may be involved, while Kuroeda, attempting to evade detection, tries to dispose of the evidence while figuring out how to revert Tomoatsu to his adult size. When Oga arrives, her maternal instincts come into play, unaware that it is simply a shrunken Tomoatsu. Tomoatsu promosed Oga to do a cooking lesson with her, which and Kuroeda join in on, as Kuroeda continues to search for a solution to her potion dilemma. After making a stew while performing back leg lifts, Kuroeda feels thirsty, prompting Elfuda to offer her the rest of the bottle of the magical potion. Not wanting to give herself away, Kuroeda accidentally squirts the potion into Elfuda's eyes. Tomoatsu later discovers that Kuroeda created a defective weight loss potion, which she made to make Tomoatsu's job easier. Eventually, Tomoatsu returns to adult size, but in an overgrown state. ||||||

| Elfuda orders fries from a fast food restaurant, which Laika steals from her and runs away. She chases Laika all the way to a box containing a puppy that Laika has been caring for. In a moment of kindness, Elfuda decides to share her fries with the hungry puppy, but the puppy declines as the fries are heavily salted. Later, Elfuda visits a café to sample German coffee, mistakenly believing it contains potatoes, only to find she dislikes it. She then meets up with Tomoatsu as he takes his wilted rose bush to Kusahanada's flower shop for her to work her alraune magic and revive the plant. Afterwards, Tomoatsu generously treats the group to some coffee. However, when Kusahanada takes a sip, the flower on her head transforms into a Venus flytrap, and her skin darkens, making her sound like and resemble a gyaru. To help her regain control, Kuroeda, Oku, Elfuda, and Mero engage in a battle with her, but they all end up incapacitated. Tomoatsu becomes ensnared in Kusahanada's vines and is fed to her flytrap. When Elfuda regains consciousness, she discovers Tomoatsu naked and crying beside a sleeping Kusahanada. Back at the entrance gate between worlds, a woman dressed in clothing resembling that of Elfuda's in her home realm steps out from the doors. ||||||

| On a sunny day, Tomoatsu encourages Elfuda to spend the day with him outside; all the while, a mysterious masked woman is seen watching over them, licking a soft-serve ice cream cone. At Smiley Boar, Tomoatsu's clients arrive for their scheduled massages despite a heavy thunderstorm outside. Hitome's fear of thunder causes her to lose control of her size-shifting ability, reverting to her original giant form while hugging Tomoatsu for comfort. After giving Laika her massage, Tomoatsu encounters the mysterious woman on his way home. While they talk in private, Elfuda arrives with her crossbow in hand, demanding that the woman remove her mask. To her surprise, she reveals herself as Oeda, Elfuda's aunt and combat mentor, who has come to Earth to bring her back to their universe. Disgusted at the amount of weight Elfuda has gained, Oeda decides to stay with her in Tomoatsu's apartment in order for Elfuda to lose weight the way Oeda desires. She subjects Elfuda to a harsh weight loss regimen with a meager breakfast, seemingly to Tomoatsu's dissatisfaction. ||||||

The next day, Tomoatsu gives a tired Elfuda a bottle of water before Oeda makes her do sword practice. Eventually, Elfuda collapses from exhaustion, prompting Tomoatsu to intervene and confront Oeda, asserting that Elfuda is his patient and he bears responsibility for her weight loss, as he believes Oeda's current regimen is far too excessive. After an unsuccessful attempt to deter Tomoatsu by swinging her sword at him, Elfuda returns to Tomoatsu's side to advocate for her own weight loss goals while continuing to work with him. Moved by her determination, Oeda relinquishes her control and leaves Elfuda in Tomoatsu's care, attempting to return to her own to her world through the park's portal, however, she cannot return due to consuming too much soft-serve ice cream. Subsequently, Kuroeda joins the group, and Elfuda proudly displays her newly attained slim figure. She then receives a coupon for French fries from Kuroeda, which prompts her to order a mega-size portion. At the playground, Kobo tries to sell a turquoise gem to Hitome, only for Oga to reappear and continue their battle. Back at Tomoatsu's apartment, Gonda requests warmth from Kuroeda, who declines, leading Gonda to use her sonic voice to blow off Kuroeda and Oeda's clothing; she ultimately uses Tomoatsu's shower to warm up. The ensuing fight between Hitome and Oeda also results in torn clothing; a similar fate befalls Kobo when she attempts to intervene. They all arrive at Tomoatsu's apartment nude, which surprises Elfuda, who, having indulged in the mega-size fries, has regained all her weight. She once again seeks Tomoatsu's assistance to achieve her weight loss goals. ||||||
