My Mountain Village Journal

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


My Mountain Village Journal is a hentai manga by Kai Hiroyuki. It tells the story of Jun, a young man whose father got an overseas job, but unlike his parents, he doesn't want to leave Japan. Instead, they send him off to a mountain village where his grandfather Inaba lives so he can stay in Japan.

Upon arriving, Inaba introduces Jun to the rest of the town, most of which is, while small, populated by a bunch of extremely well endowed and extremely amorous women of various ages, and Jun (who initially had reservations about living in the country) finds himself in awe over the fact he's become the town stud horse.

In the process, he learns why the town has such a high ratio of women to men, and learns an interesting secret about his grandfather's past in the process.

Tropes used in My Mountain Village Journal include:


  • Cool Old Guy: Inaba.
  • Generation Xerox: It skipped a generation, but Jun found out his grandfather wound up in the village due to similar circumstances as his grandson. It also turns out that his grandfather was also the town stud horse as a younger man, by the request of a woman he later married.
  • Ethical Slut: Jun, while not refusing all the sex he gets into, he also doesn't go out of his way for it except when any of the women in the manga want it, even attempting to restrain himself until they make the first move. Shown in a more serious manner with his grandfather, who knows the women Jun has had sex with are all his granddaughters and great-granddaughters, and refuses to commit incest with them, instead letting Jun be the trope above, as he knows the women of the village were hoping for it to keep the village going for a few more generations.
  • Harem Hero: Jun, obviously, played for a ton of comedy. It's also Played for Drama, because it turns out the village was on the verge of dying out long ago, until Jun's grandfather agreed to invoke this trope so all the women in the village would be able to carry on for another few generations, and Jun has been unwittingly doing the same for the granddaughters and great-granddaughters of those women.
