Link
Description
LINK is a Japanese manga writer, known for creating the World's End Harem series. Working under this pseudonym, LINK is the original creator and scriptwriter for several interconnected manga, which are published by Shueisha. While the main World's End Harem story is illustrated by Kotaro Shono, LINK has collaborated with various artists on its spin-offs and related series.
LINK's most notable and original work is the main World's End Harem series, which began serialization in the digital magazine Shōnen Jump+ in May 2016 and concluded in May 2023. This science fiction story is set in a world where a virus has killed 99.9% of the male population, and the few survivors are tasked with a breeding program to repopulate the planet. The success of the main series led to the creation of several spin-off manga, all written by LINK. Among these are the two works credited in the query. World’s End Harem ~Britannia Lumiére~ is a spin-off that started in June 2020, with art by Itō Kira. It deviates from the main series' premise by featuring a female protagonist who is summoned to a fantasy world inhabited only by men. The other credited work, World’s End Harem: Fantasia Academy, is a spin-off of the Fantasia series, illustrated by Okada Andō. This series reimagines the characters from the Fantasia universe in a modern-day school setting and was serialized from May 2020 to July 2022.
Beyond these, LINK has authored other spin-offs. World's End Harem: Fantasia, illustrated by SAVAN, began in April 2018 and is a dark fantasy story following a young prince in a medieval world. The main World's End Harem series was also adapted into an anime television series, which premiered in October 2021. All of LINK's major works are published under Shueisha's Jump Comics+ imprint. The main series and its spin-off Fantasia are licensed for English release in North America by Seven Seas Entertainment under its adult-oriented Ghost Ship imprint.
Thematically, LINK's work consistently explores the harem genre from different angles. The original series is a science fiction harem with a male protagonist, while Britannia Lumiére is a fantasy reverse harem with a female lead. Fantasia and its related titles blend harem elements with dark fantasy and heroic fantasy settings. This ability to adapt a core concept across multiple genres and demographics demonstrates LINK's significance as a creator, building a multimedia franchise around a single narrative premise. LINK remains a writer, and no verified information suggests involvement as a voice actor. Personal details such as background, age, or photograph are not publicly documented, as the creator works under a pseudonym.
