The Heat the Pig Liver light novels are published in Japan by KADOKAWA’s ASCII Media Works division under their Dengeki Bunko imprint. The story follows an unappealing otaku who awakens in the body of a pig after he passes out while eating raw pig liver. Pig finds himself in the company of Jess, an innocent girl who can read people’s minds, and she accepts him despite his boorish thoughts…although she does plan to eat him. When Jess is in danger of succumbing to a dark destiny, can Pig save her using only his quick wits, wisdom, and refined sense of smell?
The series is set to premiere in 2023. No details on staff have been confirmed as of yet.
