antihero

Ayano is reincarnated in a world he knows, but finds it vastly different from what he knows. How will he navigate this world to live his dreams and avoid a tragic end ?

Some are reincarnated as the shining, pure character known as the hero of the story. Others find themselves as secondary, unknown characters, carrying no weight in the flow of events. And then there are those who are reborn as villains… villains meant to be struck down, forming the very foundation of the hero’s growth. As for me? I was neither a hero, nor an ordinary villain. I was merely a cursed soul, reborn as an experiment within an organization that worships an unknown entity. Am I just a third-rate villain? … I wished it were so. Because the truth is far worse. I am the character who appeared in the very first scene of the game, even before the hero made his entrance. I am… the Vessel. Discord: https://discord.gg/jpYJpHdMmn

At eighteen, Haruto has already lived a lifetime of silence. For 5 years, he has survived alone in a cramped, hollow house, abandoned by the world. He never stepped foot in a school, yet he possessed a genius that no classroom could teach. To escape the suffocating boredom of his reality, Haruto turned to the only world that welcomed him: Gaming. Living on the meager wages of a shopping mart job, he couldn't afford a life, let alone a console. So, he built one. From junkyard scrap, discarded circuits, and shattered LCDs, he engineered a high-performance rig that shouldn't have worked—but did. It was his only masterpiece in a world he found utterly gray. Everything changed the night a shooting star answered his silent plea for excitement. Haruto is transported to Aetheria, a realm divided among four great races: Humans, Spirits, Elves, and Gods. He is immediately thrust into a trial of worth, forced to face the overwhelming presence of three Goddesses. Against all odds, he is chosen as the successor to "AETHERIS," the primordial force of reality. With the legendary title of "Star-Child," his Mana becomes linked to his very emotions—a source of infinite power. But the gift comes with a cruel twist. In Aetheria, everyone lives by the HUD, a system screen tracking levels and skills. Because he inherited a God's power, the system glitched: Haruto has Infinite Mana, but his Level and Skills have been reset to absolute Zero. Now, the Master Gamer must grind like never before. While he lacks skills, he carries a secret the world isn't ready for: He gains experience 1000 times faster than any living being. His goal is clear: reach Level 100, eliminate his boredom, and confront the God of Nothingness—an entity the world has long forgotten. Many allies and enemies will join his journey, but Haruto is playing a different game. And in this game, there are no save files.

A man finds himself in the body of Admiral Chan’s son from Avatar: The Last Airbender. This is the story of how the Hundred Year War might have ended if an otherwise insignificant man had been taken over by someone else—someone with foreknowledge and a different perspective on the situation. Expect a story shaped by militarism, loyalty, bias, and a far less flattering view of the original series’ protagonist. --- This is a translation! Original author: “Sedrik&Rakot”

An ordinary Indian man, tired of the lies and emptiness of his former life, is reborn as Naruto Uzumaki. Carrying memories of his past life, Indian epics, anime, and his spiritual beliefs, Naruto develops an unusual ambition from childhood: “I will change this world of lies and create an Era of Truth.” But the Shinobi world is built upon secrecy, manipulation, fear, and unquestioned loyalty.

When Konoha attempts to control the path he chooses for himself, Naruto makes a decision that will change his destiny forever. He leaves Konoha to build something of his own. But changing the world is far more difficult than simply possessing the power to do so. How far will Naruto go to discover the truth—and what will happen when the world begins questioning everything it thought it knew?

Born a prince of Manderana, he was never meant to live. On the night of his birth, the stars vanished, the moon disappeared, and the artifact of selection shattered—declaring his affinity as dark magic, a path unfit for a king. Spared from execution only by mercy, he was sentenced to exile. At the age of four, the unwanted prince was sent to the North—a land of monsters, demons, and endless war—armed with nothing but dangerous survival techniques and a monthly allowance that would end when he turned fifteen. No blessings. No hidden talents. No destiny written in his favor. Only observation, adaptation, and the will to live. This is not the story of a chosen hero. It is the story of a child who learned how to survive— and what that survival would eventually cost the world.

The Story of Your End was not just a game. Not to him. Thousands of hours — every arc, every hidden lore, every system he could exploit, every character down to the small decisions that never made it into any wiki. And the one arc no one could ever play — Academy of Endstoria, the arc that only existed as a tie-in novel so dense even most of the fandom never finished it — he read three times. Two sources. Thousands of hours. More complete knowledge of this world than anyone who had ever touched it. Then the door opened, and he went in. Not as the protagonist. Not as anyone important. As an extra, a variable that was never supposed to exist in this story. With everything he knew, the plan was simple: observe, don't interfere, let the story run its course. That plan lasted one day.

In a universe where power costs pieces of your soul, Eric Heisenberg awakens reborn with fragments of a past life spent climbing to the top, only to die beneath its crushing weight. He knows exactly where this road leads. Absolute power demands absolute selfishness. So he wears masks, becomes whoever the moment requires, and calls it survival. But the deeper he goes, the less certain he is that anyone is left underneath. Thirty Pathways. Thirty royal families. A world teetering on the edge of the Cataclysmic Era, calm on the surface, yet already shifting violently beneath. Eric climbs anyway through betrayal, forgotten promises, and the slow erosion of everything that once made him human, chasing a dream he can no longer clearly remember. Will he carry the world again? Or will he finally choose himself… and break fate in the process?

Original Title: 咒术回战的普通上班族 Original Author: 杀鸽仔 My name is Kira Nanami. I am thirty-three years old. I graduated from Tokyo Jujutsu High, and I am unmarried. I am currently employed by a general enterprise, and I make it a point to exorcise eight curses every single day before returning home. I do not smoke, and I only drink occasionally. Before bed, I always drink a glass of warm milk and perform twenty minutes of stretching. Once I am in bed, I fall asleep almost instantly. I never carry stress or fatigue into the next day. Even Sukuna admits that I am perfectly normal. I go to sleep by 11:00 PM to ensure I get a full eight hours of rest. Anything that interferes with the quality of my sleep is my enemy. Therefore, overtime is absolute shit.

Waking up on a blood-soaked World War II battlefield, I was nothing more than a disposable war reporter destined for a stray bullet. Then, the [Superhero Interactive System] booted up. My ticket to survival? Summoning powerhouse characters from beyond the Marvel Universe. But my starter pack didn't grant me saints. It gave me monsters. First came the arrogant, ruthless Soldier Boy from The Boys. Next came DC’s twisted flesh-sculptor, Professor Pyg. In that instant, I saw the ultimate blueprint. I deployed Soldier Boy to the frontlines as the Allied forces' golden savior, basking in the adoration of millions. Meanwhile, I infiltrated Professor Pyg into Hydra, transforming him into a stitched-together nightmare that broke the enemy's sanity. With the gods of the Allies and the demons of the Axis all under my thumb, the greatest war in human history became my personal puppet show. As a broken Red Skull stared at my creations, he could only scream: "Are you God or the Devil?"
