''Deadline Summonner'' is a one-shot manga by Website/{{Pixiv}} artist Takemaru "Okayado" Inui, chronicling the adventures of Mamoru Onodera, an {{Otaku}} [[TrappedInAnotherWorld sucked into a fantasy RPG,]] and his [[BattleHarem harem of]] [[CuteMonsterGirl monster girls.]]
The plot of its one and only chapter follows Mamoru and his current traveling partner, Aero [[HarpingOnAboutHarpies the Harpy]], as he tries to find a job that pays well and keeps him WELL out of harm's way. Complicating this is the lack of boring, safe jobs in a fantasy universe, and he's on a Perma-Death, No-Potion run whether he likes it or not. And as if that wasn't bad enough, his summons are EXTREMELY intent on sleeping with him and [[ClingyJealousGirl not too keen on sharing with the others.]]

** Also PlayedWith: Turns out part of the reason why he is constantly beat-up (from beginning to end of the one-shot) is because he wants to be prepared to use his DesperationAttack at any time, perhaps to compensate for how weak he is normally. So, in a way, he's always desperate!
* TheDitz: Aero. Like [[Manga/MonsterMusume Kimihito Kurusu,]] he laments that she's a birdbrain.
%%* {{Ecchi}}: Wouldn't be an Okayado manga without it.

* InterspeciesRomance: What all of Mamoru's summons want with their master--[[ClingyJealousGirl without having to share him, of course.]]
* MadeOfIron: While Mamoru has more than his fair share of hospital stays, the majority of his injuries should have outright ''killed him.'' He also doubles as an IronButtMonkey for the less serious moments.
* {{Magitek}}: The Golem seems to be made of this, having distinctly mechanical traits but existing in a fantasy, magical universe.

%%* OfCorsetsSexy: The Slime girl wears one.
* OlderThanTheyLook: The Mummy, Scylla, and Golem refer to themselves as the group's "elders." Likewise with Aero and the Slime, the former for the sake of flight and aerodynamics, the latter because she has a [[BizarreAlienBiology different biology]] from everyone else.

* PowerFist: The Golem girl has two. It also conceals an ArmCannon.
* ThePowerOfFriendship: Mamoru's ultimate skill allows him to summon all of his girls for a massive combination attack. Unfortunately, the girls don't really get along very well outside of combat, most especially because Mamoru is only able to keep one "Main" summon for any extended period of time, i.e. traveling.
* RealityEnsues: Despite being an RPG, there are no continues or healing spells, and Mamoru [[SubvertedTrope does not]] [[AfterCombatRecovery magically get better after a fight.]] There's also the fact that majority of his woes come from the lack of well-paying, safe jobs that will take a wandering summoner with no other saleable skills than combat, and the abundance of wild monsters and violent criminals making sure that dangerous jobs are the ''only'' ones he'll get.

Justified in that the girls [[BlueAndOrangeMorality probably don't share the human perception of decency]]--[[CuteMonsterGirl not being very human, after all.]]
* TakingTheBullet: Mamoru does this a lot. That it helps activate his DesperationAttack [[AwesomeButImpractical (if he can calculate the damage and damage adjustment right)]], and that [[IronButtMonkey he doesn't take much permanent damage from it]] makes it less dramatic than most examples.
* ThisIsWrongOnSoManyLevels: Mamoru has trouble getting over the fact that his VERY affectionate--and [[ClingyJealousGirl somewhat possessive]]--harem is [[CuteMonsterGirl not exactly human.]]

%%* SnakePeople: The Lamia.
* {{Stripperific}}: Of the protagonists, there are only four characters dressed decently: the Centaur, the [[ClingyCostume Dullahan,]] the Golem, and Mamoru himself. Justified in that the girls [[BlueAndOrangeMorality probably don't share the human perception of decency]]--[[CuteMonsterGirl not being very human, after all.]]
* TakingTheBullet: Mamoru does this a lot. That it helps activate his DesperationAttack [[AwesomeButImpractical (if he can calculate the damage and damage adjustment right)]], and that [[IronButtMonkey he doesn't take much permanent damage from it]] makes it less dramatic than most examples.
* ThisIsWrongOnSoManyLevels: Mamoru has trouble getting over the fact that his VERY affectionate--and [[ClingyJealousGirl somewhat possessive]]--harem is [[CuteMonsterGirl not exactly human.]]
%%* UnscaledMerfolk: Specifically, a Scylla.
%%* WhoWearsShortShorts: The Werewolf.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Aero has purple hair. If the ''12 Beast'' cover is anything to go by, the Scylla has pink hair.
