It also publishes the four-panel manga Dungeon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru no Darō ka? 4-Koma: Kamisama no Nichijō (Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? 4 Panel: Gods' Everyday Life).
The original novel series debuted in Japan in 2013, and inspired a television anime adaptation in 2015. Yen Press is publishing the original novel series, the Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? Sword Oratoria spinoff light novel series, and Kunieda's manga adaptation of the original light novel series in North America.
