"Brad," Victoria told him as they sat on her couch "I haven't been entirely honest with you."
"You're not seeing anyone else, are you?" Brad asked with a concerned look on his face.
"No," Victoria replied with a nervous smile "I promise it's nothing like that at all. The truth of the matter is....well......I'm actually.....an anime girl."
"So you like anime?" Brad said with a smile "That's nothing to be ashamed of. I thought it was something serious for a bit there."
"Well, I do like anime," Victoria continued with a nervous smile "but I'm also an actual anime girl. Maybe it would make more sense if I just showed you."
And with that, Victoria's eyes widened to anime proportions, her nose became pointed and thin from the sides, her head became slightly larger, her hair volume increased slightly, and her entire body looked as thought it had be hand-drawn, colored, and animated to life by a pro.
"You see Brad," Victoria said as she explained "I'm from another dimension - one that people from your dimension would call an 'anime' world. It's a very chaotic and random place where people turn into chibis, can sprout the ears and tail of any number of cute animals, where magical girls, fairies, monsters, and all other kinds of exciting races and creatures exist. One day someone might pilot a giant robot to fight a giant monster in a serious battle, the next day they might find themself regressed to a baby, toddler, or child - all just for comedic effect!
I needed a break from all of that, so I came to your dimension and disguised myself as a woman from your dimension, but.....I never expected to fall in love with you. I just couldn't keep this secret from you anymore. You don't think I'm....a freak, do you?"
Brad simply looked at her with understanding, and told her with a smile "Of course not - you're a kind and beautiful woman. I'm glad you chose to be honest with me. Though this does raise a few questions, like.......how did you even get here in the first place?"
"I used a powerful spell." Victoria explained to him "I made a copy of my house in the anime dimension in this one. If you like, we can visit my world, but be prepared for things to get even weirder."
"Whatever it is," Brad told her with a smile "I'm sure I can handle it......as long as I'm with you."
This made Victoria smile warmly. So she led him upstairs to her room, and to her closet, but instead of finding clothes inside, it was a portal to the anime dimension.
"Are you ready, Brad-kun?" she asked with a cute smile. "As I'll ever be." he replied. Brad didn't quite know what awaited him there, but as long as he was with Victoria.....the woman he loved.......whatever happed next would be bearable for him.
Not to mention, he liked anime too, and how many people get the chance to go to a world full of it? He was actually excited, and looking forward to it. The fact that he was with her would only improve the experience.
No matter how much they changed, he promised he'd still love her, and she made the same promise towards him.
When they went through it.......
