Line 2: [[File:Library_War.jpg\|frame]] ''[[Library War]]'' (''Toshokan Sensō'' in Japanese) is a [[Light Novel~~\|light novel~~]]/[[Twelve-Episode Anime\|12-episode anime]] series set in 2019, during an alternate timeline where the Japanese government has issued the Media Betterment Act to prevent the spread of supposedly dangerous information by allowing censorship. In response, local governments have set up the Library Defense Force to fight against the Media Betterment Committee, who frequently raid libraries. The story itself centers around Iku Kasahara, a recruit in the Force, who joined after being inspired by a mysterious Defense Force member who protected her and a book she was trying to buy that was being targeted for censorship. However, she quickly learns how demanding the Defense Force can be, mainly from her demanding instructor, Atsushi Dojo. Despite making several huge mistakes at first, Kasahara is promoted to her base's Library Task Force, which is essentially the most elite branch of the Defense Force. As the series goes on, she begins to improve in her duties, and she even finds out more about the mysterious "princely" figure that inspired her all those years ago... ---- {{tropelist}} ~~=== '''''[[Library War]]'' contains examples of:''' ===~~ * [[A-Team Firing]]: Played straight (and somewhat justified) with the LDF, as their goal is usually not to actually harm members of the MBC and to just hold them off. The MBC soldiers, however, have few qualms with shooting LDF members. * [[Alternative Calendar]]/[[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]: The series takes place in the fictional Seita era, with the majority of the story taking place in 2019. * [[Aloof Big Brother]]: {{spoiler\|Satoshi Tezuka, Hikaru Tezuka's older brother}} * [[Battle Couple]]: {{spoiler\|Kasahara and Dojo, by the end of the anime series at least.}} * [[Badass Bookworm]]: Library Defense Force... well, they're willing to do their job of protecting books from the Media Betterment Committee. * [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]]: Kasahara and Dojo, naturally. * [[Bloodless Carnage]]: Seriously, this must be the cleanest civil war ever. Few people are actually killed by the series' [[A-Team Firing]]; most are only injured or knocked unconscious.
