One day, his world is completely changed by the power of magic that the picture he drew pops out! Tougo is a high school student who loves drawing more than anything. One day, he woke up in a deep forest filled with vegetation he had never seen before... While he went on an exploration to find answers in this new world, he found them without putting much effort.

When he drew a Mochi using pencil and paper, something unusual happened...!? Not just a log house but legendary beasts too!? It's fun to be able to materialize anything, and when you're single-mindedly making meat, log houses, and fountains -- bathing with a fluffy monster bird in the fountain, BBQ with a unicorn, traveling in the air on a Pegasus -- before you know it, it's friendly. A fortified city where magical beasts gather will be created!

With the ability to bring anything into being, he creates a paradise for everyone! A young boy who unbeknown to him is loved by others. The drawing fantasy story starts here!

Abilities
Tougo has had a passion to draw only using pencils and notebooks from junior high school until High school, but his family keeps throwing away his art supplies. But despite using a wooden stick, dirt, concrete walls, and rain to draw, his devotion never wanes. He even skips launch to buy art materials for his passion to draw and thanks his teacher that he can keep drawing in his free time.

One day, the 『Painting Magic』 power he possesses causes every drawing he makes to come to life or reconstruct, drastically altering the reality. High school student Tougo is very passionate about art. He is mistaken for a spirit as a result, and dragons that ought to be extinct are resurrected in the new world. The sorcery of Tougo defies the laws of nature and is unknown to mankind.


 * Simply put, it's a "special ability to make pictures real". It is a fairly special technology, and it is mostly not widely used in the worldview of the work. His raw talent combined the special characteristic of being born and passionate in arts Tougo can draw from imaginary numbers and the artistic talent that he learned and possessed a unique perspective on his art. A technique of a unique theoretical system that is similar to the magic runes but Imaginary Numbers yet different.
 * As long as the user has paper and paint, the user can create anything. As an ability of the type "creating things", the quality of the picture is greatly affected by the performance and quality of the real thing, so if a person who is good at drawing can draw it, it will be able to demonstrate specs that are not inferior to the real thing, but it will be devastated. In many cases, if the picture is poor, all performances and abilities will fall a certain degree of perfection is required in order for "what you draw to materialize" or "make the painting materialize ''.
 * Tougo uses this magic to generate and manipulate paint. He can bring his illustrations to life and produce any element by painting them "materialize what is drawn in the picture  . If he created something like mochi, the illustration became mochi and tasted like mochi, "reflecting the picture on the actual thing  . And thus Tougo can create/generate, shape, and manipulate paint, both the physical substance and paintings, including entering and manipulating them. Every monster he revives, creates, or is healed will be tamed by him or be friendly to him.
 * Tougo's ability is almost limitless and is most like Omnificence "The power to create absolutely anything/everything without limit", but his magic is required his knowledge of something from a living being or an object from shapes, lines, textures, and color. He can create existing or nonexistent material or tools and even can revive extinct races and even can heal people but required large mana from Tougo even though he lost consciousness, but he trained himself to expand his mana. Because of this magic power, Tougo can create a gateway to his world and to another world.
