antihero

Kael Ardenne dies in a hospital bed and wakes up in a land filled with magic and immortals—a world where beasts speak, humans soar through the skies, and immortality is within reach. But there’s a problem. Kael hasn’t transmigrated as a prince, a dragon, or a prodigy. Instead, he’s been reborn as a goat, in a farm (Author note - If you’re looking for something fresh and new, I recommend that you give this a try. Please read the review I gave, which contains lots of helpful information.)

Hajin was dumped in the border slums for a simple reason: he was a summoner who couldn't summon. He had no talent and now, no family name as well. He lived like that for years years, surviving on scraps and waiting for a miracle that never came. But that all changed when he kills a monster he was never supposed to beat, activating a dormant blood inside him that is linked back to the goddess of reincarnation. With his bloodline awakened and summoning power now working, he begins pulling female souls from the veil as he grows stronger to revive the goddess that was killed.

Thank you! ^_^) ************ Not all villains are evil. Sometimes, their experiences and the way others treat them shape them into who they become. *********** In his first life, for reasons unknown, he was betrayed, framed, and stripped of his status as a noble. Branded a "traitor"—or worse, a "villain"—he was condemned by the very world he once belonged to. As he faced execution and prepared to meet his end, an unknown entity known only as the [System] suddenly appeared before him. It offered him a chance to become a Dimensional Traveler, a being capable of traversing different worldlines and carrying out various tasks across countless worlds. The [System] also promised to fulfill his greatest desire should he agree to bind himself to it. With no other choice, he accepted. After millennia of transmigration, however, the [System] unexpectedly gave him a new directive. To return. To return to the very life he had long since forsaken. And so, he was reincarnated once more into his first life— As the "Villainous" Third Young Master of the Marquis Chevalier Household of the Stellarus Empire. ********* Photo not mine.

The 18-year-old Yamato suddenly found himself in the after life, but is unsure on how exactly he ended up there. However his reaction lacked the surprise or confusion one would usually expect from someone in his situation, as he would soon prove to be anything but ordinary. Having always failed finding meaning in his life and those of others, his emotional numbness and tendency to view most people and activities as beneath him becomes apparent when he meets the angel Yuki. Meant to judge his life and actions, things take a turn when he tricks her into agreeing to a wager that would change his and her fate. Achieving victory over the angel, he acquires her devotion and servitude, though he soon discovers the true face her devotion to be pure obsession instead of the benevolence she showed him at first. After a confrontation with God himself about his changed fate, he and Yuki are sent to a new world in hopes of finding what his previous world lacked: meaning. Yuki however has made it her sole purpose to win him over, baiting the slightest bit of affection out of him, genuine or not. Even just experiencing theatrical romance scenarios, which she artificially creates at the cost of others, becomes a normal occurrence. Though not reciprocating her feelings just yet, Yamato cannot stop himself from being captivated by both her beauty and emotional intensity, seeing her as someone who might finally give him the emotional experience he seeks.

Pablo Drake is dying. No one can name the disease consuming him. No one knows how to cure it. Most refuse to speak of it at all. Pablo refuses to accept that. In a world of magic and Treasures born from the human soul, he searches desperately for anything that might buy him another day. Every answer draws him deeper into a reality where dreams are punished, pain is easier to bury than face, and saying “that’s enough” has never made anything stop. He will lie. He will fight. He will cling to anyone who makes tomorrow feel possible. Because Pablo does not want to die nobly. He wants to live. But his illness is not an accident. It began with something he did to survive, and curing it will mean confronting the one truth he built his entire life to escape. If survival means waking up, will Pablo still choose to live? --- In the year 497 AS, three years before the promised prophecy is said to be fulfilled, Pablo must set out to sea and discover his destiny. He'll meet wonderful characters, make alliances, and upset some people. He must use and master his Treasure in order to keep going, even if he doesn't know why. This is the story of Pablo Drake and his rebirth.

[Naruto] Time Travel: Starting with Hashirama's Cells Betraying the Leaf: Sasuke's Path to Godhood The Otsutsuki God, Shibai, descended. And the Shinobi World was erased. No amount of willpower, friendship, or Jutsu mattered. Sasuke Uchiha watched his wife, his daughter, his only true friend, and his disciples get slaughtered like insects. In his dying breath, sacrificing a Mangekyou Sharingan for Izanagi, and with the final desperate help of Orochimaru, he rewrote the timeline. Drip. Drip. Sasuke opened his eyes. Cold rain battered his face. He was standing at the Valley of the End. Across from him was a young Naruto Uzumaki, shouting about bonds and bringing him back to the Hidden Leaf. A blood-red Mangekyou spun in the moonlight. This time, Sasuke didn't feel rage or petty rivalry. He only felt the cold, calculating weight of the apocalypse to come. To hell with playing ninja games. To hell with the hypocritical will of fire. If a mortal body cannot kill a god... then I will become a monster that even gods fear. Abandoning the original timeline's foolish path, Sasuke embraces Orochimaru's forbidden research. Fusing the pinnacle of Uchiha ocular power with Senju Hashirama's cells, he begins his ruthless evolution. From Wood Release to the Rinnegan. From a rogue ninja to a true Otsutsuki. But is becoming an Otsutsuki enough to stop Shibai? No. He will have to devour them all. [What to Expect] Ruthless MC: Pragmatic, cold, and utterly unforgiving. No "Talk no Jutsu." Extreme Evolution: Scientific ninja tools + Bloodline fusion. Watch Sasuke hack the genetic code of the Shinobi world. Fast-paced Action: Curbstomping original timeline threats with future knowledge and absolute power. Dark Progression: Walking the path of a supreme deity, sacrificing whatever it takes to save the future.

Alternative Title: The Second Male Lead’s POV (in an Otome World) ────────────────────────── SYNOPSIS: Starting a forbidden relationship with the duke’s daughter was the most reckless thing Lucian had ever done in his life. And he was a professional when it came to recklessness. It backfired, horribly, in every possible way. He almost died, fled his homeland, and then almost died again, but here he was, not really learning. "So dumb," the devil voice in his head whispered in disdain, "How more idiotic can you get?" "As far as idiocy goes deep," Lucian answered, accepting the new path of his life, one that might cost him his sanity, "And it goes deep. And wide." Goal: get wealthy and powerful enough to afford more idiocy Current arsenal: blood, sweat, tears, and pure wits Start point: gardener End point: unknown Method: whatever works "I'm a good person," Lucian claimed, "The 'whatever works' should be changed to 'whatever works morally and sensibly' and 'unknown' to 'a glorious victory'." The devil voice in his head laughed so hard he felt it in his bones, shaking him like a puppet on a string. ────────────────────────── THE CHARACTERS DO NOT BEGIN AS YANDERE, BUT THEY WILL SLOWLY FALL DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE AS THE STORY PROGRESSES.

James Carter was nobody special—just another face in the crowd, another casualty of circumstance. When he dies and wakes up in Gotham City, he realizes with creeping horror that he's landed in the DC Universe. No system. No cheats. No destiny waiting for him. Just a dead-end job, an empty apartment, and the certain knowledge that in this world, ordinary people die screaming. But James has something nobody else does: he knows what's coming. He knows Superman just made his debut. He knows Batman is starting his war on crime. He knows that in a few short years, gods and monsters will walk the earth, and anyone without power will be collateral damage. Most people would despair. James gets to work. With only his mind and his memories of comic books as weapons, James begins a calculated ascent from powerless nobody to something more. Every advantage must be earned. Every power must be taken. Every relationship must be built with care. Because in a universe of Kryptonians and speedsters, of magic and metahumans, there's no room for hesitation. The heroes are rising. The villains are plotting. And somewhere in between, one man is playing the most dangerous game of all—trying to survive long enough to matter. This is the rise of an extra. This is the story of someone who refused to be nobody.

Barry Allen was supposed to be ordinary. A fresh college graduate working his first months as a CSI in Central City, living paycheck to paycheck in a cramped apartment, still haunted by the car crash that orphaned him as a child. That was the plan. A simple life. Then he woke up with memories that weren't his own. A DC fanboy from another world now inhabits Barry Allen's body, armed with knowledge of a future that hasn't happened yet and an understanding of a universe most people think is fiction. But this isn't the timeline he remembers. There's no Reverse-Flash. No time travel murder. No Harrison Wells with secret agendas. Just the natural flow of a world where heroes exist in the shadows and the Justice League is still years from forming. But knowledge is power, and this new Barry Allen refuses to waste it. Oliver Queen's yacht will sink in two weeks. The particle accelerator is years away. Clifford DeVoe hasn't built his Thinking Cap. Lian Yu still holds its secrets. And Barry? He's done being weak. Done being ordinary. Done waiting for lightning to strike. With an enhanced intellect he's only beginning to understand, he starts building an empire from nothing. Money. Power. Skills. He'll master combat on a deadly island, steal research from future villains, and engineer his own transformation into something the multiverse has never seen. Seven abilities. Multiple forces. Perfect optimization. When that particle accelerator finally explodes, Barry Allen won't just become a hero. He'll become inevitable. This is the story of a man who refused to let fate write his story. Who looked at the Speed Force and said "not enough." Who turned foreknowledge into an empire and preparation into godhood. The Flash was supposed to be a hero born from tragedy and chance. This Flash? He's something built with purpose. And the DC Universe will never be the same.

From the King of Earth and Metal, the Tyrant who controls flames and magma, to the Supreme King of the Supreme, Great, and Greatest Kingdom, or the Dragon of the World, the Dragon of Thousand Faces and Thousand Aspects... These titles are just embellishments on the crown of power of this red dragon. The world has changed because of him. Cultural thoughts and ideologies are his fluttering flags; Mage towers and floating cities are his war fortresses; Countless races and strange creatures are his soldiers; and countless dragons are his commanders; This is a civilization established by a dragon, a dragon kingdom that commands the entire multiverse. (this is a translation) (and from today onwards every 10 power stones = 1 chapter)

In a world where the fabric of reality is fraying, an ancient prophecy foretells the arrival of a demon whose power is destined to annihilate all life on Earth. As whispers of his coming spread, panic grips humanity, forcing the distinct factions of Seraphites, Netherites, and mundane humans to confront their own demons—both literal and figurative. The Seraphites, once revered as guardians, have become rigidly dogmatic, struggling against their own fears and doubts about faith. The Netherites, a society of outcasts mutated by demonic influence, wrestle with their monstrous natures and the primal instincts that threaten to consume them. Meanwhile, ordinary humans are caught in a web of chaos, trying to carve out a survival in a world where monsters roam freely. Entangled deep in the web of warfare is the demon in question, Tristan. Contrary to his role in the prophecy, his arrival on earth motivates him to seek freedom from the shackles of Hell. As the clock ticks toward the prophecy's fulfillment, Tristan is forced to fight against all factions, including his own brethren. Through epic battles and fierce self-discovery, Tristan learns that true evil isn't determined by one's origin but by the content of their heart. In Darkheart, the fate of existence hangs in the balance as the characters confront their worst fears and grow stronger, unlocking the potential within to become the ultimate force against the darkness threatening to engulf their world. THIS NOVEL IS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT; PLEASE DO NOT EXPECT PERFECTION....

Asher, a character who has once experienced a traumatic incident, gets reincarnated in a fantasy world, living a new life. That, however, will never change the scars of his past... Here's a longer one: It's a fantasy and the mc was a 21 year old boy who had experienced a kidnapping incident (it became his trauma) and was the son of a scientist, he died on an escorting mission and was reincarnated in a fantasy world as an elf. Then he decides to focus on the vampire bloodline quest. The mc is an anti hero for now, however, he will still feel emotions like guilt and sadness, although only a bit. This will change in the future though (it's part of the plot so I don't wanna spoil). Sorry for the long introduction. But if you're interested, please check it out!

Konoha's Blue Beast: "I want to prove that even if I can't use Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, I can still become an excellent Ninja. This is my whole life, this is my Ninja Way!" Clover's Roaring Emperor: "I'm going to prove to everyone that whether you're a pauper or an abandoned child, you can achieve great things!" Arlan: "If you want to know what else these two have in common besides being inspirational, it's that I was unlucky enough to transmigrate as Rock Lee first. Due to physical defects, I couldn't control Chakra to perform Ninjutsu. After protesting to the system, I transmigrated again as Asta, who can't use magic..."
