HOLLYWED! The Act of a Lifetime

In the year 1500, just before the world loses its mind and decides piracy is fashionable, a seventeen-year-old merchant’s son named Jack Sparrow finds himself extremely unlucky, briefly enslaved by fate, and permanently in debt to a very unpleasant pirate named Davy Jones. In exchange for raising his sunken ship from the ocean, Jack gains the Black Pearl—a ship that moves when it feels like it and behaves as though it has opinions. Together, the newly named Caribbean Pirates bumble through storms, starvation, strong enemies, and terrible financial decisions, arriving at Loguetown just in time for the execution of the Pirate King himself. Jack, drunk for the first time in his life, fires a cannon he mistakes for a celebration prop, narrowly avoids being punched by a Marine legend, and unknowingly helps ignite the Great Pirate Era, literally with a bang. With a cursed ship, worse planning, and dangerously good luck, Jack D Sparrow sails into the One Piece world—to enjoy its luxuries, meat, women and rum.

“So I can summon Heroines and Villainesses, but I just have to create them myself? Seems easy enough!” Max lived for one thing and one thing only: a good story. Novels were the only escape in his mundane life. However, all the light novels and manhwas he read had the same problem: Ruining female characters. In all these novels, the powerful heroines and terrifying villainesses were always reduced to one-dimensional trophies obsessed with the MC. They had no goals or purpose of their own. When Max discovered Awakener Supreme, he thought it would be different. It started out promising; a dark fantasy, detailed, consistent world building, a complex magic system and interesting characters. But everything went downhill pretty fast. To please the fans, the dark tone vanished, and the fierce female cast was reduced to shallow fan service. In a burst of anger, Max confronted the lead writer, criticizing him for ruining female characters, and claiming he could do a much better job at creating heroines and villainesses. He never expected the universe to take him at his word. Max suddenly wakes up inside the world of Awakener Supreme, and was given the chance to back up what he had claimed in the form of a unique class. ⸢ You have awakened your Class ⸥ ⸢ Class: Architect - You can create heroines and villainesses and make them your Summons ⸥ ⸢ Class Group: Summoner ⸥ Was Max all talk? Or can he truly create more powerful and consistent heroines and villainesses to help him survive the grim world of Awakener Supreme?

Reincarnated as Rias Gremory, the fiery crimson-haired heroine of High School DxD, she quickly realizes that life inside her favorite ecchi anime is far more dangerous than it ever appeared on screen. Behind the glamorous façade of an elite devil princess lies a web of looming threats. The remnants of the Old Demon Faction coil in the shadows, the Calamity Group begins to stir, and catastrophic forces such as the Evil Tree and the Beast Emperor 666 threaten to plunge the world into chaos. Worse still, in the distant future stands a monstrous evil god powerful enough to overwhelm even the True Red Dragon God Emperor in mere moves and the mysterious Three Pillars, whose existence alone could shake the foundations of the underworld. And then there’s her own humiliating fate: reduced to a provocative title and treated as little more than a background fantasy for others. Refusing to remain a pawn in someone else’s story, Rias resolves to seize control of her destiny. No longer content with being a decorative “Switch Princess,” she sets her sights on absolute strength. Through strategy, alliances, and ruthless ambition, she will carve her own path, one of conquest, dominance, and survival. In a world where gods, dragons, and devils collide, can Rias Gremory rise above her predetermined role and become the strongest being in existence… or will the weight of prophecy crush her before she ever has the chance?
