Plus-Sized Elf (エルフさんは痩せられない。, Elf-san wa Yaserarenai.; lit. "Elf Can't Lose Weight"), is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Synecdoche. It was originally serialized on Wani Books' Comic Gum website from December 2016 to May 2021, with its individual chapters collected into 8 tankōbon volumes. After Wani Books' license to the series expired, a continuation manga titled Plus-Sized Elf: Second Helping! (新・エルフさんは痩せられない。, Shin Erufu-san wa Yaserarenai; lit. "New • Elf Can't Lose Weight") started serialization in Akita Shoten's monthly seinen magazine, Dokodemo Young Champion, in October 2021, with its individual chapters collected into 2 tankōbon volumes. Both manga are licensed for English release in North America by Seven Seas Entertainment. An anime television series adaptation was announced to premiere in 2024.
Plot[]
Naoe-kun, a massage therapist, is about to head home for the day when he's saddled with a rather strange patient. This lovely lady has emerald eyes, pointy ears, and grew up in the forest–everything about her screams “elf,” except for one thing: her bodacious body. It turns out she left her world but loves junk food in this one, and now her obsession has caught up with her. Can Naoe-kun help this loveable elf girl lose the weight–and keep it off?
