"My Little Sister is My Little Sister, But She's Not My Little Sister" is a light novel by Ebisu Seiji that has been published since August 2016. Its abbreviation is "Imoimo." The protagonist, Nagami Yu, a high school student aspiring to be a light novel writer, repeatedly submits his work to new writer awards, but always fails first time. One day, Yu's younger sister, Nagami Suzuka, whimsically submits a work (a love comedy about a brother and sister) that wins the Light Novel Grand Prize. However, considering that their strict father won't approve of it, Yu decides to write in Suzuka's place as a writer, Towa no Chikai. Meanwhile, this incident sparks a change in his sister Suzuka, who has always been strict with herself...?! The anime adaptation began airing in October 2018 and has been a hot topic as a "love comedy about a clumsy brother and sister who connect through light novels." This time, we'll introduce Shinozaki Reika, an editor who appears in "My Little Sister is My Little Sister, But She's Not My Little Sister."

Shinozaki Reika is the editor in charge of the protagonists, Towa no Chikai (Nagami Yu and Nagami Suzuka), in "My Little Sister is My Little Sister, But She's Not My Little Sister." She works at Sumeragi Fantasy Bunko and claims to have "dedicated her soul to light novels." With her rational appearance and crisp tone, Reika gives off the impression of a cool woman, but she also seems to be a bit of an oddball. She often teases Yu with sexually suggestive behavior, enjoying it.
Workaholic...?

Reika Shinozaki is so passionate about her work that she has said, "I've dedicated my soul to light novels." Reika seems particularly fascinated by "The Story of a Little Sister Who Loves Her Big Brother Too Much, Which is a Problem," written by Nagami Yu's younger sister, Nagami Suzuka, under the pen name Towa no Chikai. After Yu began working as Towa no Chikai in place of Suzuka due to various circumstances, Reika was prepared to sacrifice herself for Towa no Chikai (Yu). However, this seems to be in a "sexual sense," and although she is hardworking, she also seems a little off in some ways.
