    The secret of Tanya's birth is revealed. Tanya was a cold and unemotional Japanese salaryman who was pushed in front of a train by a man he laid off. An infuriated godlike creature named "Being X" sent him to this world, and reincarnated him as a baby girl... with no promise that he would ever be reincarnated again. Now Tanya has to survive, because this is all she's got!

    Tanya is now living life on easy street, as a highly-respected student at the military university. She's so highly respected, in fact, that one of the Empire's chief military planners asks her for her opinion on the course of the war. Eager to show off her intellect (and hopefully land herself a cushy job in the planning department), Tanya comes up with a plan of astonishing insight and intelligence. Her idea backfires, however, when she turns out to be a little too smart for her own good...
