Nanana's Buried Treasure (龍ヶ嬢七々々の埋蔵金) is a Japanese light novel series by Kazuma Ōtorino, with illustrations by Akaringo and Non. Enterbrain has published twelve volumes since January 2012 under their Famitsu Bunko imprint. A spin-off light novel series titled Ikkyū Tensai no Kiwamete Fuhon'i na Meisuiri (壱級天災の極めて不本意な名推理) is also published under Famitsu Bunko, with the first volume released on August 30, 2013.

In July 2014 Nozomi Ōsaka, under penname Non, replaces Akaringo as illustrator for the original light novel and its spin-off due to Akaringo's health condition. Akaringo stated that his health declined, and which is why the illustration for seventh volume could not be finished. Due to this, the decision was made to replace the illustrator in both projects.[1]

Jūgo Yama (八真重護)
An energetic student in his second year of high school with strong stamina and endurance as well as a fondness for girls in maid outfits. He is devoted to helping Nanana move on, in spite of her constant commotion in his room, as he tries to find interest in her. Jūgo joins the school's Adventure Club on a hunt for the island's Nanana Collection. It is revealed he's secretly the heir of Matsuri, an ancient "noble" thief organization that claims to only steal from the wicked, but was banished to Nanae Island when he refused to take the position due to a difference in ideals. Jūgo claims he does not believe in doing things for others, and does not believe he'd give everything to help anyone. Despite refusing to take the position, Jūgo is actually quite good at stealing treasures, and managed to outmatch Tensai, Isshin, and even other Matsuri members a few times, although Tensai usually deduces it in the end. Jūgo's Nanana Collection is a large jewel that allows its user to tell when others lie when looking through it, which originally belongs to Ikkaku, but Jūgo intercepted it when Matsuri members attempted to steal it, and gave them a fake one later.
