Denpa teki na Kanojo (電波的な彼女, lit. The Radio Wave-Like Girlfriend, translated as Electromagnetic Girlfriend) is a Japanese light novel series by Kentarō Katayama, with illustrations by Yamato Yamamoto. Three novels were published by Shueisha, under their Super Dash Bunko imprint, between 2004 and 2005. The series remains unfinished. Under the title Denpa Biyori (電波日和, lit.
