Cibele always wanted to be a heroine, and always wanted to be loved. No one ever told her you should be careful what you wish for.

After a chance encounter with a speeding truck, Cibele Epeli Imanis wasn’t whisked away to another world – that would be too easy. Her future self has given her miraculous powers, all to save the world from the so-called Queen…and yet, all she can think about is using these brainwashing powers on girls!

In the twilight of the Reiwa era, as humanity awaits the end of the world…can Cibele resist temptation? Can she save the world? Will she have to resist her powers and fight against the insistence of her future self…or is it possible to find love, or even become a ‘hypnotic heroine’, beneath a Southern Sun?

A tale of ethical dilemmas, late capitalism, freedom and justice, temptation, bad thoughts, nerdiness, hypnokink, and – of course – cute girls.
