The TV anime is based on the light novel series written by Hirukuma, which was first released in 2016 online on the Shosetsuka ni Naro website. Kadokawa Shoten acquired the title later in the same year and published it with illustrations by Itsuwa Kato. A manga adaptation by Kunieda began serialization in August 2021. Yen Press licensed both the light novel and manga in English, and they describe the story:
After dying in a traffic accident, I find myself standing near an unfamiliar lake. My body won’t move, I can’t hear my voice, and when I try to shout in confusion, words that I never expected come out!
“Get one free with a winner.”
I-it seems I’ve turned into a vending machine…! I can only do what actual vending machines can. It’s impossible to move by myself, and there’s no way for me to have any meaningful conversation-how am I going to survive some fantasy world’s dungeon like this?!
