Is It Wrong to Try and Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? is set in the fictional fantasy land of Orario, where adventures form guilds or “familias” under the banner and guidance of a patron deity, with the intention of finding treasures in the underground labyrinth known as the Dungeon.

For rookie adventurer and the sole member of the Hestia Familia, Bell Cranel, the real objective is meeting girls, like his crush, the famous Ais Wallenstein from the Loki Familia, but he soon learns that the Dungeon is full of nasty surprises.
