Synopsis

“Two minds. One body. A world of enemies.”

Trapped in a prison of paint, a man who lost everything, even his name, awakens as the girl in the portrait: Isidora. His only roommate? Isa, a whimsical mind who treats their predicament like a fantastic game.

But this game is deadly. An old mystic seeks to claim their heart. A fanatical cult hunts their anomalous souls. Mad gods lurk in shadow, while cosmic dread tries to devour them whole. As a crippling form, the reluctant Isidora must rely on Isa’s reckless fervor to stay sane, while avoiding becoming a doll in their control.

One brings caution. One brings chaos. To outwit gods and grow stronger, they can only adhere to one principle:

Survival means staying hidden.

And to stay hidden?

No one will know if there is nobody left to know!

Second Life as the Sister of a Goddess

★ 4.2

Jemini

In his 60 years of life, he'd built up a good legacy and looked on to spending his later years quietly teaching his students the martial arts he'd cultivated over the years while working as a nurse for his day job. He'd long since saved enough for his retirement, but he just could not leave the profession of helping those who needed it.

In his younger years, he'd traveled the globe and, during his time in Japan, learned a historical preservation of a martial art that claimed to be Ninjutsu. Although, as he would learn, it was actually a Samurai art that the Ninja supposedly learned to infiltrate. Bottom line, it was effective.

His son had even enrolled his granddaughter into his studio in the kid's class. After practice one day, he decided to take his granddaughter for ice cream. This is when everything went wrong.

After the accident on the freeway, he was fine. His granddaughter was not. It was at this moment something supernatural happened. A ghostly vision claiming to be a fallen goddess promised him she could take his vitality in order to heal his granddaughter. In so doing, he would die but his granddaughter would live. Regretting his actions which caused his granddaughter's predicament, he agreed immediately. Next thing he knew, he regained consciousness in the womb of what would be his new mother, and next to him was his twin, a twin he would later discover was the very goddess who helped him to save his granddaughter.

Marvel: So I’m a Supreme Being, So What? [Under Edit]

★ 4.6

FoolishSociopath

A soul wakes up in a spider egg inside the great elroe labyrinth. The difference being that, this is not the world of the novel he had read in his previous life. The great elroe labyrinth is now a high level dungeon in the up-and-coming DMMO-RPG YGGDRASIL. Recognising this to instead be the world of overlord, he becomes a supreme being of Nazarick and prepares to transmigrate to the new world only to end up in the world of marvel during ancient times. Read as our protagonist, now known as Shiraori, intentionally or unintentionally sets up her own pantheon and shakes the world of marvel comics and movies.

Warning: This is a gender bender, the protagonist is a male before coming to the world of overlord.
I have wanted to try writing this story for a long time. A portion of the story will focus on the nazarick npc's and shiraori coming to be known as gods and forming their own pantheon in ancient times along with wars with other pantheons. I have quiet a few ideas I want to try in this fanfic.

Also Momonga will ‘NOT’ be going to the marvel world.

Kyraq

An anomaly meets his end after a short, miserable life where his emotional capabilities were forcibly stripped from him.

While his soul was on its way to the cycle of reincarnation, it was intercepted by an outerversal goddess who happened to take interest in its peculiarity.

Offered three limited wishes and a choice of a modern world to reincarnate into, he (now she–

“Wait… What do you mean by ‘now she’?! Don’t just gloss over such an important detail, goddammit!” An adorable baby’s voice echoes throughout the room.

He, now she, experiences a normal childhood for the first time–well, as normal as it could be–while preparing herself for her upcoming adventure in a third world.

Making new friends, spending time with her family, hacking into secret labs–Cough! Investing countless hours into learning everything possible, she meets her second end due to a fated accident.

She (now it–

“Like I said before, don’t gloss over something like this, idiot!! This is a matter of life and death for me! …You’re just messing around with pronouns at this point.” A fish roars in a cryptic bubble language.

She, now it, finally sets out on a grand, thrilling adventure where her insane luck, prophetic intuition, and an unexpectedly nice evil goddess are her best companions!

Watch how she weaves around the agendas of some unfathomable divine beings, destroys entire ecosystems for food, protects all whom she treasures from harm at all costs, and somehow gets involved in a three-way war between humans, demons, and elves!

I'm not a native English speaker/writer, so don't expect expert level writing. If you find any writing mistake, you can point them out in a comment and I'll fix them asap!

I started writing this fanfic out of boredom and due to the lack of "So I'm a Spider, So What?" fanfics on the internet, so don't expect an award-winning level plot with gripping . I would appreciate constructive criticism and new ideas to add to the mix.

The whole gender bender thing is just there cause I wanna write about a female protagonist even though I don't know much about women's life perspective. You can just ignore it and consider this a fem mc fanfic.

I will mostly focus on the "So I'm a Spider, So What?" world, but the protagonist might go to other worlds for a number of reason. In such cases, I'll either create an entire new fic where I post such arcs, or normally add them here with an attached tag behind the chapter name.

I try to keep a semi-regular update schedule, but I keep in mind that I'm college student with limited time and a busy unstable schedule. Missed or delayed uploads will be fairly common.

The elements in this fanfic are not mine except for my own additions to the worldview, specifically (The protagonist, the new monsters, the OCs etc...) and they all belong to the author of the wonderful novel "So I'm a Spider, So What?", Okina Baba.

Naruto – Azure Awakening

★ 4.1

GodWithWings

"In this world, wherever there is light, there are always shadows."

Kaoru Takime is reborn into the brutal world of Naruto, not in Konoha or any of the great nations, but in the Land of Water - a place where violence decides everything. He remembers wathing Naruto series in his previous life, but in this one, he’s inherited something far greater than mere memories: the lost Kekkei Genkai of the Takime Clan.

With war and betrayal everywhere, Kaoru refuses to be just another tool for someone else’s ambitions. Takime clan has a goal - to create a new village, a place where outcasts and survivors can live free from the control of the great nations.

But the world won’t let them build without a fight. If Kaoru wants to change anything, if he wants to protect his clan and new family, he’ll have to cut down anyone who stands in his way.

❗What to expect:

* 5 new chapters releasing weekly (Mon, Tue, Wed, Fri, Sat)! Each 2000+ words.

* Slow Progression.

* Lots of Fights, Drama, and Bloody Scenes.

* MC isn’t heroic but forms deep bonds.

* Romance may develop naturally over time, but there will be no harem.

* The starting universe will already have slight differences from the original. For example, the Senju clan isn’t wiped out in my story. These changes make Azure Awakening a slightly AU version of Naruto.

* There will be politics, intrigues, schemes and also clan building elements

* I’ll respect canon characters and their personalities, but as the story progresses, I’ll introduce original elements and may alter or remove key events. The MC won’t be focused on preserving the original timeline.

* I’ll involve readers through polls, letting you vote on key details.

Reborn in Naruto As Madara’s Grandson

★ 3.8

ForgottenLife

A medical student died because of negligence of the authorities. Later, he is granted a second chance in life with some boons. But being an Otaku and Naruto fan, he chooses to live in the chaotic world of Naruto.
The story will follow canon for the initial part with a new plot. Major changes will reflect in the later part as our MC grows up. The story has strong AU elements and the power scaling is ramped up to explore various foreign elements in Naruto. Everything in its entirety will be a part of the Naruto series with details and speculations of my own.
This story is my original creation, and I post it on Scribble hub and Webnovel. You might find a few initial chapters on Royal Road.
Note:- The starting 40 chapters or so have poor grammar and various mistakes since I was a new writer back then and lacked experience. But I am working on editing them.

Warning:-I don't own Naruto or any related stuff except my MC and Original characters and jutsus. (Yep, there are lots and lots of original jutsus in the story.)
