In a remote, snowbound village, a battered boy lay half-buried in the cold, his body broken and surrounded by corpses in the aftermath of a demon’s brutal feast. As consciousness faded, a faint fragrance of wisteria drifted through the air, unnatural yet comforting. Through his blurred vision, a butterfly seemed to descend beside him… but it was no insect. It was a girl. With gentle grace and captivating violet eyes, Shinobu Kocho knelt beside him, her presence calm amidst the carnage. “Come with me,” she said softly. Her voice, warm and soothing, pierced through the boy’s despair like sunlight breaking through winter clouds. From that moment, his fate changed. He was brought into the ranks of the Demon Slayer Corps, where he trained under the unwavering guidance of the Stone Hashira, Gyomei Himejima, the strongest among them. On the battlefield, he fought alongside Tanjiro Kamado, forging bonds through blood and survival. Yet beyond strength and camaraderie, something deeper took root within him: an unspoken love for Shinobu. But beneath it all burned a single, unrelenting purpose: To hunt down and kill the one responsible for everything... the demon who destroyed his life.

“Everything comes to an end,” that is what Riku, an ordinary young man, will be forced to learn far sooner than he ever imagined. Mistakes and immaturity are among the consequences of *that* tragedy. It will open his eyes but gradually close his mind, blurring the lines between “reality,” a “dream,” and an “illusion.” And no matter how hard he tries to run, one can't outrun themselves...

Never would I’ve thought that a simple water ball would awaken those feelings inside of me, as the day passed, memories falling to pieces together to awaken an ability that brings me trauma and dread towards the future. As the day passed, more knowledge and different future that lies ahead of me appeared and scare me. I tried to bear through the world, and see what kind of struggle I can make before stopping at the juncture where I can make a change. In this godforsaken world… I wonder, what change can I make? tldr: Claude was just a brat—a village troublemaker with a sharp tongue and a sharper mind—until a prank gone wrong awakened something terrifying and impossible. Memories. Not from another life, but from many. Futures that never happened. Timelines that fractured. Pain that felt too real to be fiction. Now, armed with fragments of knowledge from alternate realities, Claude knows one thing: the peaceful village of Buena is not safe. A disaster is coming—the Mana Calamity—and no one is prepared. So Claude trains. Under Paul Greyrat's sword. Alongside Rudeus' magic. With grit, secrets, and a plan no one can know.

After dying in his original world, a young Pokémon fan mysteriously awakens in the body of Shiro Tamashii, a boy marked by profound losses and even greater secrets. But this isn't the Pokémon universe he knew; here, everything is more real, more difficult… and more fascinating. Forgotten regions, unique concepts like growth potential, power rankings, and rumors of legendary forces create a world full of possibilities, and dangers. Fortunately, Shiro wasn't unprepared. Upon opening his eyes in this new world, he discovers access to an Achievement System, a mysterious interface that rewards his achievements with items, abilities, and special advantages. With intelligence, ambition, and foresight, Shiro decides to follow a unique path: to create a daycare center specializing in Ghost-type Pokémon in the enigmatic Lavender Town, a shadowy sanctuary that would soon capture the world's attention. But this is just the beginning. As his Daycare grew and his exploits spread, Shiro Tamashii's name began to echo throughout the regions, as someone destined to become much more than a breeder or caretaker. He was on his way to becoming a Legendary Trainer. And nothing in the world would stop him. *Author's note: This fanfic was inspired by the story "I'm the Owner of the Pokémon Day care in the World of Pokémon" by bearnard_bear97. However, this story will follow its own path and originality, with just a few inspirations.

By MoonboundInk In the year 3934, Earth stands on the edge of extinction. Centuries of human progress have solved every mystery—every disease cured, every question answered—yet peace has never been more distant. From the shadows of the Moon, an ancient extraterrestrial species awakens, claiming Earth as their birthplace and humanity as the infection that must be erased. Amid the wreckage of collapsing cities and burning skies, Danial, a lone survivor, runs from both death and destiny. Hunted by alien forces that bend the very laws of nature, he discovers a truth buried deep beneath humanity’s triumphs — one that ties his existence to the Moonborn invaders themselves. Now, in a world consumed by chaos, Danial must choose between survival and sacrifice, between the remnants of humanity and the origins of the species that doomed it. Because the war for Earth isn’t about domination anymore — it’s about who deserves to live.

One Hundred Lifetimes of Reincarnation The so-called "Twin Electro Archons" are nothing more than a tired tale spun by a dying Shogun. The so-called "Free-Spirited Bard" is merely the wind taking the form of a boy, seeing the world beyond the tower in his place. The so-called "Immortal Zombie Qiqi" is simply an old man's desperate plea on the verge of death—one that a god happened to hear. Li Mo had been reincarnated a hundred times into the world of Genshin Impact. One more lifetime—one final mission—and he would be granted ten wishes. In his hundredth life, he became a storyteller in Liyue. "On that day, the Thunder Demon split his own heart in two, saving his dying sisters." "On that day, the wind took the shape of a boy, seeing the world beyond the tower in his place." "On that day, an old man, facing the dying herb-gathering girl, forcibly wielded the power of his own wish, granting Qiqi a glimmer of hope." The emotion ran deep, and the entire audience erupted in applause. The Raiden Shogun, Shenhe, Qiqi… even the Tsaritsa herself was moved to tears. Hu Tao's eyes glistened as she asked, "Storyteller… is that boy really dead?" --- Raw: 原神：璃月港说书，胡桃泪目 Author: 万字更新

The boys summoned from Earth were meant to be heroes. Instead, they became slaves. Branded as expendable weapons by the empire that summoned them, the group later known as the Strays survives through rebellion, escape, and bloodshed. Freedom comes at a cost—and now powerful nobles, mercenary orders, and kingdoms hunt the runaway summons who were never meant to live. Armed with stolen magic and hard-earned scars, the Strays travel a continent consumed by war, searching for one impossible prize: a way back to Earth. But in a world that profits from their existence, escaping may mean tearing down the very empires that control it.

Kai Veyren died with her name on his lips. Valeria Knox — the assassin who once fought beside him, laughed beside him, slept beside him — drove a dagger into his heart and left him bleeding under the moonlight. No goodbyes. No explanations. Just silence, steel, and betrayal. He had trusted her. Maybe even loved her. And she killed him. But death, it seemed, had a twisted sense of humor. Kai awakens not in the afterlife, but in her body. Her face, her voice, her scars — all his now. The world sees him as Valeria Knox, the Ghostblade, the most feared killer on the continent. And to make things worse, she was in the middle of a high-stakes mission: assassinate the Crown Prince… or die trying. Now, hunted from all sides, Kai is forced to wear the mask of the woman who murdered him — learning her secrets, fighting her battles, and walking in heels he never asked for. But as he pieces together the puzzle of her past, he finds something far more dangerous than betrayal: the truth. A truth that makes him question everything. Why did she really kill him? Who is pulling the strings from the shadows? And most terrifying of all… What if he was never the hero of this story? In a world of spies, stolen identities, forbidden love, and violent conspiracies, Kai must survive as the woman he loved, hated, and maybe never truly understood — while trying not to lose himself in the process. After all… It’s hard to kill your enemies when the person you hate most is staring back at you in the mirror.
