Player's Handbook. This book holds only what you use at the table — how to make a check, how to fight, how to build and grow a character, and how to roll it solo without a GM.

With this one book you can build a character, run combat, and grow to 5th dan. The original text of the rules lives in the core rulebook, and the source footnote at the end of each section points to its place — follow it only when you want to look deeper. Where the wording seems to conflict, the core rulebook takes priority. The only new rule in this book is Chapter 11, the Solo Oracle — an opt-in layer that fills the GM's empty seat.

#Three Doors In

If TRPGs are new to you — start at Chapter 1, Prologue and go in order. A sample play dialogue shows you the feel of the game first.
If you have run the Quickstart — go straight to Chapter 3, Checks and Combat and Chapter 5, Character Creation. Graduate from the Quickstart's pregens and make your own character.
If you want to roll solo — make a character in Chapter 5, then go to Chapter 12, "The First Sword". It is a 39-paragraph gamebook that teaches you the rules one at a time as you meet them. After that comes Chapter 11, the Oracle.
If you have decided to be the GM — learn this book first, then read the core rulebook. The yoma data, scenarios, and running guidance are there. Even if the players know only this book, the table is complete once the GM knows that one.

#What This Book Does Not Cover

Detailed yoma data, guidance on GM discretion, domain and trade management, and the play rules for the 12 Majin classes and the 3 Outsider classes are not in this book — open the core rulebook on the day you need them. Chapter 6 (Part Three) guides you on where that boundary lies and what to open next.

One-line principle. This book is the map, and the core rulebook is the land. It is built so you can walk by the map alone, but when the map and the land differ, trust the land.
