***Isekai Shikkaku*** (異世界失格, Another world disqualification / Disqualification in the World / No Longer Human...In Another World) is a Japanese manga written by Hiroshi Noda and drawn by Takuhiro Wakamatsu.

## Synopsis

An adventure in another world with cute girls by your side and video game-like powers--sounds like an anime fan's dream, right? Not so for melancholic author Osamu Dazai, who would quite literally prefer to drop dead. Video games haven't even been invented yet when he gets yanked into another world in 1948. Really, all the fantastical adventure he keeps running into is just getting in the way of his poetic dream of finding the perfect place to die. But no matter how much he risks his hide, everything seems to keep turning out okay. Follow a miserable hero like no other in this cheerfully bleak Isekai comedy!

Dazai has the raw talent to observe and understand human beings with his personal feelings, story, motivation, and also their ambition. This is the raw talent for being a writer to observe and understand human beings and it's not just limited to observing people, as he can even hypothesize the livelihoods, likes, and lifestyles of people whose names he doesn't know. For this talent, something resembling eidetic memory is required. While Dazai is a pessimist, the basis of that pessimism is not rejection but understanding.

"*Now let's, Hear your Story'.'"Ahh... Yet again, I couldn't write a Masterpiece, Dunno when they'll appear as the person that will incite my inspiration.*"

It was “*the Almost Masterpiece of a Story*" according to him, who once stated that "*the majority of what I write are projections of other people's stories.*" It is a compilation that readapts their way of life, author Dazai's other self in a way, as it is a manuscript with "*For an author, all works are completed piece of that person, but unable be called a masterpiece*" as its core.
