Genma496 is the pen name of an amateur writer, illustrator and the caretaker of Genmajou―in other words, me. My passion is coming up with stories about oddballs and eccentrics living out their strange lives. My head is swimming with them, and it seems I'm incapable of being satisfied until I've expelled all of them out into the world, hopefully for your reading pleasure. My main interest is the mystery genre, often crossed with fantasy, denki or sci-fi and always with a hearty helping of moe influences. If that sounds up your alley then feel free to stick around.
I aim to develop narrative games and visual novels, but in the meantime I'm also writing short stories, novels and novellas, all of which you can find here. Unless specified otherwise, all accompanying artwork is made by me. If you're interested in my art, you can check out the gallery section as well as my Twitter and Pixiv accounts.
For any inquiries, you can DM me on Twitter or email me at the following address:
