#391 Most Rated#98 Most Popular#4 Most Rated · Spring 2012
Houtarou Oreki spends as little energy on anything as he can get away with — until his older sister presses him into reviving the dying Classic Literature Club and the club president, an aristocratic and relentlessly curious girl named Eru Chitanda, ropes him into investigating the forty-five-year-old reason their clubroom exists at all. Joined by the cheerful encyclopedia Satoshi Fukube and the sharp-tongued manga fan Mayaka Ibara, Oreki finds himself solving small high-school mysteries one after another, mostly because Chitanda asks. The series is the cases, the friendships, and Oreki's slow surrender of the energy he was trying so hard to conserve.
