Synopsis

By some strange turn of fate, my soul travelled to another world when I died from stupid bravado. (I know, cliché, right?)

I woke up with a new body and an existential crisis, due to my soul merging with that of Raynold, the owner of said body and the youngest son of a duke, who was stupid to the point of being mentally challenged, was only good at swinging a sword around, and had passed out after seeing his erect dick for the first time.

However, although this world’s pretty much a prime example of generic fantasy isekai, there‘s a catch. For the people here, fat means beautiful, at least when talking about females. Indeed, they like fat, greasy women, with huge noses, bulging eyes and puffed up lips.

So, what am I to do when I see slim, gorgeous girls being bullied and shunned by society? I save them, of course!

…I just didn’t expect them all to fall in love with me and be completely fine with sharing me!

The Exalt [Cultivation Fantasy]

★ 4.1

Mistapak

A young farmer's son, Oscar, is content with living a peaceful life, but by fate's whim, he is found to have the potential to become something greater, an Exalt. A special class of humans who perform miraculous feats and lord over others. Despite his shortcoming and slow progress compared to the geniuses around him, Oscar holds determination as his shield and persistence as his blade.

Who says that a person needs to be a genius?

Who says that a person has to be a prodigy?

With each heavy step, Oscar walks the path of an Exalt.

Is it wrong to cultivate in the dungeon?

He was just trying to get some sleep. Then bam! With no explanation, he finds himself in a village burned to the ground with a dying woman giving him some fancy manual on cultivation. The whole situation screams Xianxia to him, which isn’t great. A Xianxia world is probably the worst world to get trapped in, but at least he can cultivate. Though something about this place seems a little off. Gods, adventurers, and dungeons? Are we sure this is a Xianxia world?

Tactical Embarrassment

★ 4.6

jagddrache

The OG run concludes on 25 Dec 2025 (GMT+8). The rewrite begins after a short break.

Synopsis

When Andie Ryuu, his classmates, and their teacher are transported to the magical world of Voluptaria, he expects the usual script: big powers, instant respect, a straight path to heroism.

What he actually gets: Perfect Bubble Creation, Stain Resistance, and the incomparable ability to kiss really, really well.

While his classmates pull flashy combat skills, Andie’s kit looks like convenience and chaos. On paper some of it is strong, but power without mastery does not win by itself. In a world where creative setups, planning, and teamwork matter, “useless” can become “opportunity” only if you learn how to drive it.

As strange threats emerge, Andie drifts into a leadership role he never wanted. Survival in Voluptaria demands tradeoffs, not just stats: he builds tools and teams, pays costs, and learns when to step back so others can take the win.

Voluptaria draws on Eastern and Western hybrid of high fantasy, built on original lore, alongside other inspirations. You will see familiar echoes in names and customs, but the story and factions are original to this world.

With dangers in the shadows and politics at the gates, Andie has to navigate both an unfamiliar realm and the relationships he used to avoid. Childhood ties reignite, new alliances form, and keeping a safe distance gets harder every day.

It is difficult to keep a lone-wolf persona when people refuse to let you face the world alone—and when you are starting to realize you do not want to.

John was just your average old man. He had always worked hard, had a wife, kids, family. A good life.

Then one day, at a crosswalk, some kids were not paying attention and tried to cross. A truck was barreling down the street and John didn't hesitate and jumped in front of the kids and threw them out of the way. Along with his back. The truck slammed into him and the world went black.

When he awoke, he was in a circular room, golden and silver lights flashing around the floor. Ten doors were lit up on the wall behind him and a man was on a dais in front of him, head looking up, arms out wide like some type of showman.

"Welcome kids to your new life as a DEN protagonist, you will be competing against other groups in various anime, vide- wait who are you?"

"My name is John, who are you? And what is anime?"

Follow our new protagonist while he ventures into new worlds he had never even heard of before and tries to survive.

Things to note about this novel.

He is an old man, and they didn't give him a young body, they just did some minor cosmetic and physical changes. He will get some bonuses as he progresses, but he will never be the 18-25 year old ripped MC, even if he replaces a MC who is that way. (But maybe he will be like Silver Fang from OPM, who knows)

He has no idea about anime, or any world he is entering, just some knowledge about life for living for 80 years. I'll be forcing some canon scenes but there is a reason for it.

MC will be hopping worlds fairly frequently.

He will not be OP out of the gate, he will be training, and recovering, a lot.

This will probably be a slow burn for smut. I plan on keeping the harem down to no more than 2-3 per world as that will be hard enough to keep up with once the story develops. I reserve the right to change my mind on this though =)

The DxD world isn't for a long time. And no he isn't replacing Issei.

I am writing another novel concurrently to practice different writing styles before I work on my original novel. Check out My F-Grade Reincarnation.
https://www.scribblehub.com/series/1651928/my-fgrade-reincarnation/

1-2 chapters a week, approx. 2500 words each.

I want feedback. Good, bad or ugly. Preferably constructive as I can't do much with "This is a terrible novel. Dropped." 4-5 stars always appreciated though.

Ascension Through the Records

★ 4.2

SDASLUMMY

Mikael was once a small-time crime lord in the USA—ruthless, calculated, and always in control. But when the Akashic Records descend upon Earth, offering humanity the chance to rise beyond its limits, everything changes.

Thrust into a vast multiverse ruled by strength, Mikael accepts the challenge not for heroism—but for power. In this world of gods, monsters, and ancient legacies, he forges his path with blood, ambition, and cold logic.

As he journeys across worlds, mastering deadly arts and forging powerful bonds, Mikael’s rise becomes inevitable. Whether it's clashing with divine beings, taming the forces of cultivation, or winning over remarkable women, his story is one of unrelenting ascension.

Ascension Through the Records is a strategic progression fantasy featuring a calm and often indifferent protagonist. Romance, harem dynamics, and R-18 content are present—but never at the expense of story depth or action.

Warning: This is not a fanfiction. Although it is possible for him to enter "anime worlds," the main character will never actually enter those worlds.

Expectations: A cold protagonist who is largely indifferent to the lives of others. If you are looking for a hero who saves everyone, this story may not be for you. While the main character is capable of love and other emotions, he simply doesn’t care about the fate of strangers.

Chapter Length: Approximately 2000 words.

Update Schedule: Every day at 12:00 EST.

Reincarnation of a Worthless Man

★ 3.5

ForestDweller

"Argh, how did my life end up like this?!"

There was once a boy who's well-loved and popular with his peers. His smile could melt an adult's heart and his easygoing and sweet nature attracted a lot of girls who became his admirers.

Little did he know that such a blessed life wouldn't last forever.

Now, he is an ugly, overweight adult, working a job he doesn't like, and leading a life he doesn't want. No women want to be near him, let alone be his girlfriend, or even his wife. He is an oversized gear in a machine that doesn't even welcome him.

When he gets fired from his job, it is the last straw from him. He remembers his life as a kid, and now good and beautiful it was.

"I don't want this. I don't want this anymore!"

"I would be better off dead than having to live like this for a second longer!"

Suicidal, he passes by a flooding river, as there is a storm that day. He immediately thinks of throwing himself there, ending it once and for all.

And he does. But not because he actually has the balls to kill himself via drowning, but because he sees a little girl being carried down the river by the strong current.

In a split second, he decides that it would be better if she lives, even if he has to die in the process.

And he does. He saves her, throwing her into the side of the river. But then his legs, rarely ever used, suddenly cramp. He can do nothing as he is swallowed by the waves.

"Aah, it would be nice if I could be reincarnated into a fantasy world, like in those stories... I can do it all over, and do it better this time around..."

His wish is granted. When he wakes up, he's no longer his old, adult self. He's a baby, living in an entirely new world.

This is his story.

------

This story would have both happiness and hardships, heartwarming and sad moments, as well as romance that doesn't just end in a kiss. This is a harem story that will end up in a genuine polygamous relationship. It's also an adventure story, though it would stay as a slice-of-life for a good while as MC grows up.

Ernard is used to the life of a workaholic, not thinking about anything else other than maintaining his good results.

Stuck in the loop of modern days, he notices that there is something wrong with him before sleeping, but even after looking for it with medics and specialists, there were no results, so he just ignores it, living another day, week, month, year, working.

Zirda, a cupid that chose his case to solve, tries her best to find a love for him, thinking that would solve his life, but anyone she tried to match with him ended up being ignored by him. He never gave them a chance.

As Zirda's last chance, she uses all her energy in a single arrow, one that would change his life without his consent or logic, one that would make him chase the girls he once ignored.
