OSHI NO KO - STARS OF THE STAGE! Book/Series Description In the same Tokyo where Aqua and Ruby Hoshino pursue their destinies, another reincarnated soul burns with purpose far darker than stardom. Fuku Raito died twice—first as a broken person pushed onto train tracks at 36, second as the abused scapegoat whose own sister framed him for murder at 17. But death granted him reincarnation as Hoshino Kagayaku, son of idol Rina and talent manager Kasuke. For four precious years, he experienced genuine love. Then obsession wearing affection's face murdered his mother before his eyes. Six months later, his father discovered the truth: Kasuke's own brothers orchestrated Rina's death for insurance money. When confrontation turned violent, Kagayaku watched his father die protecting him, a blade piercing his back meant for him. Now sixteen and enrolled at Yotou High School—the same institution Aqua attends—Kagayaku enters the entertainment industry with a smile that hides black stars burning in his eyes. His target: the cousin he's never met, his uncle's son who believes he's owed the blood-soaked inheritance. To draw him out, Kagayaku must become what Fuku Raito only dreamed of being—a star bright enough to illuminate even the darkest corners where his "brother" hides. Alongside him walks Burst Shōgeki, a student whose red scarf conceals her own reincarnated trauma, her own murdered parents, her own stars that burn crimson and silver-white with rage and grief. As Aqua Hoshino pursues his revenge in the spotlight, Kagayaku hunts in the shadows of the same industry that destroyed them both. Two people carrying the burden of reincarnation. Two revenge quests running parallel. Two questions demanding answers: Does vengeance heal wounds or create new ones? And can someone who died twice ever truly live again? In this world, lies are love. Performance is survival. And stars burn black before they die. RATED MA18+ - 14 Episodes of Tragedy, Revenge, and the Price of Shining Bright 推しの子 — STARS OF THE STAGE! 作品紹介（日本語版） 星野アクアとルビーが自らの運命を追い求めるのと同じ東京で、もう一人の転生者が、スターダムよりも遥かに暗い目的を胸に燃えていた。 福来人（ふく・らいと）は二度死んだ。一度目は17歳の時、実の妹に殺人の濡れ衣を着せられ、虐待の身代わりとして。二度目は36歳、壊れた心のまま駅のホームから突き落とされて。しかし、死は彼に「星野輝（かがやく）」としての転生を授けた。アイドルである母・リナと、マネージャーの父・カスケの息子として。輝は4年という宝物のような時間の中で、初めて本物の愛を知る。だが、愛情の皮を被った「執着」が、彼の目の前で母親を惨殺した。 半年後、さらなる真実が父を襲う。リナの死は、保険金を目当てにしたカスケの実の兄弟たちによって仕組まれたものだった。対峙が暴力へと変わった時、輝は自分を庇って死んでいく父の姿を目の当たりにする。彼に向けられた刃が、父の背中を貫いたのだ。 現在16歳。アクアと同じ陽東高校に通う輝は、瞳に燃える「黒い星」を笑顔の裏に隠し、芸能界へと足を踏み入れる。ターゲットは、一度も会ったことのない従兄弟。血塗られた遺産を自分のものだと信じ込む、叔父の息子だ。奴をあぶり出すため、輝はかつての「福来人」が夢見ることしかできなかった存在――闇に潜む「兄」さえも照らし出すほどの眩いスターにならなければならない。 彼の隣を歩むのは、バースト衝撃。赤いマフラーで転生前のトラウマを隠し、自らも両親を殺された過去を持つ生徒だ。彼女の瞳にもまた、怒りと悲しみで深紅と銀白に燃える星が宿っている。 星野アクアがスポットライトの中で復讐を追う傍ら、輝は二人を破滅させた同じ業界の影の中で狩りを始める。転生の重荷を背負った二人。並行して走る二つの復讐劇。そして、答えを求める二つの問い。――復讐は傷を癒やすのか、それとも新たな傷を生むのか？ 二度死んだ人間は、果たして本当に「生き直す」ことができるのか？ この世界では、嘘は愛だ。演じることは生存。そして、星は死ぬ前に黒く燃える。 【R18指定（MA18+）】 全14話：悲劇、復讐、そして輝き続ける代償。

As his friend's lifeless body fell at the hands of a Seele, Itoshi could do nothing but watch-paralyzed, helpless, broken. Something in him snapped that day. From that moment on, he made a vow: He would never let anyone else suffer the same fate. No matter how far he had to go. No matter how many Seeles he had to put down. Since then, he's traveled the world with his squad, 663, "cleansing" every Seele infestation they find-efficiently, mercilessly. To most, he's a protector. A weapon of justice. But justice has a handler. Enter Miz-the calm within the carnage, or perhaps the one stoking the fire. While Itoshi burns through the world with his Blue Rage, Miz remains the quiet shadow at his side, offering a "humble" smile that hides more than it reveals. Is Miz the anchor keeping Itoshi's humanity intact, or is he merely the architect guiding a broken weapon toward a much darker purpose? Deep down, even Itoshi doesn't know if he's truly fighting for others, or just trying to fill the void that opened when he lost the only person who truly mattered. Maybe it's a mission. Maybe it's penance. Or maybe... with Miz watching every step, it's just an excuse.

Lucy Liana only wanted a quiet life. In an empire where mana defines your worth and bloodlines decide your future, she was meant to be ordinary. She wasn’t. On the day her power awakens, the Golden Moon Empire brands her with the Inverted Crown — a divine restraint used to control monsters, rebels… and gods. Lucy is neither hero nor chosen saint. She is a flaw in the system. A Moonborn anomaly the empire cannot classify. Now hunted, owned, and shackled by the very symbol meant to suppress her, Lucy must decide: Remain their weapon… Or become the catastrophe that shatters their throne. The crown was placed on her head to break her. They forgot one thing. Even inverted, a crown is still a crown.

This is a translation of the German original version. Arriving on Earth, Saturn Princess Evlina and her delegation meet Prince Kashion – dutiful, charming, and just a little distant. But the free-spirited servant Prior brings fresh energy to the palace and throws Kashion off balance. Between diplomatic talks, courtly splendor, and intense Cheqi matches, friendships, tiny jealousies, and first tender feelings emerge. Every move on the Cheqi board could decide more than expected – hearts, trust, and perhaps even the future of two worlds.

Rosaline, a seemingly ordinary salesperson—but beneath the surface, she is a 'Hunter.' In a world where dungeons are 'catastrophes,' the life of a Hunter is never their own to choose.

During the Chunin Exams, a mysterious live stream hijacks all screens, revealing two impossible lives of Naruto Uzumaki. In one world, the despised Jinchuriki rose to become Hokage through unshakable will and talk-no-jutsu. In another, a calculating Naruto, aware of his origins from the start, single-handedly revived the Uzumaki clan—not for Konoha's sake, but for its eventual reckoning. The revelations send shockwaves through the afterlife and the living: Tobirama: "This boy was born evil! And he dares to court Tsunade?!" Hashirama: "Tobirama... we're dead. And I'm more concerned about the 'reckoning'." Madara: "Black Zetsu, explain. Now. Or disintegrate." Kushina: "That's my boy! The Uzumaki will rise again!" Minato: "So... my son is leading a clan revival. Am I a Senju now?" Kaguya: "The logic of this mortal's ambition... I comprehend. But why am I involved?" (This is a translated work ) …….

One lives by the rigid laws of geometry. The other writes stories that defy logic. At the prestigious Hanshan University of Architecture and Design (HUAD), Li Yan-chen is the "Ice Prince"—a genius architect whose heart is as cold and structured as the skyscrapers he designs. He doesn't believe in accidents; he believes in load-bearing walls and calculated risks. Han Seo-yoon is a Korean scriptwriter who views the world through a lens of emotion and narrative. When a high-stakes collaborative project forces them together, their worlds collide in a storm of misunderstanding and unspoken tension. But when the blueprints of their lives begin to crumble, they find themselves crossing borders—from the quiet canals of Suzhou to the salt-wind piers of Busan. Amidst the weight of past betrayals and the pressure of a looming future, they must decide: Is their connection a structural flaw, or the very bridge they’ve both been searching for? A story of quiet glances, hidden silver rings, and the courage it takes to build something that lasts.

Years after the world ended, humanity struggles to survive in the ruins. This is a collection of short stories about the people who live in this broken world, each trying to find their own way, whether it's hope, revenge, or just another day. DISCLAIMER !

Kael Dravhen is nobody special. Twenty-four years old. A dead-end archive job. A small apartment. A mother who died three years ago under circumstances that never quite added up. Then a bleeding stranger knocks on his door at 2 AM, and the world he thought he knew peels back like a mask. Underneath it: the Veil. A hidden layer of reality woven into every city, every shadow, every place where tragedy has soaked into the walls. Monsters that wear human faces. Secret organizations that have been pulling history's strings for centuries. And a power system called Soul Alchemy, where the right kind of suffering can transform an ordinary person into something the world has no name for yet. Kael is not ordinary. He just did not know it. His soul carries the fractured memories of a dead man, a Sovereign-level warrior killed thirty-eight years ago by the very organization now hunting Kael. His mother spent his entire life hiding him from what he was. She ran out of time before she could explain why. Now three factions want him dead, one wants him as a weapon, and the truth about his mother's death is buried somewhere inside all of it. He is not ready. It does not matter.

In the year 2050, humanity shattered a colossal object on a collision course with Earth and unknowingly opened an ancient prison. The fragments became the floating Shard-Cities.

A century later, in 2150, society is ruled by the M-Scale. Your power level decides where you live, what you become, and whether your life has any value at all. Nulls and Near-Nulls struggle on the ground. The Gifted rule the skies. And elite Hunters are celebrated as heroes broadcasting their battles to the world. Arin Kai Rastogi is a Near-Null from the Indus Valley Collective. He works as a Cutter, dismantling dead Mana-Beasts for scraps, just to keep his sick mother alive and support his younger sister’s dream of escaping the lower city. Invisible. Powerless. Easily forgotten. Until a mysterious accident during a salvage operation fuses an unknown core into his body and awakens something that was never meant to exist. •follow me on:- YouTube: @pencilstorm_aditya instagram:Adityarathor63

The black dragon that rose from the depths of the South Sea unleashed an apocalyptic tsunami... Flame demons destroyed city after city made of steel and concrete, calmly departing from the center of nuclear explosions... Alien gods attempted to rule the entire galaxy... This is a future world where human technology is highly advanced. It is also an era that sparked a frenzy of Life Evolution in the Martial Path. Li Yuan, a Martial Path student on the verge of taking his college entrance exams, struggled to advance in this world while harboring the peculiar Divine Palace capable of envisioning the galaxy. Years later. "My current flying speed is 122,682 meters per second, and my power burst is..." Li Yuan flew at extreme speeds through the atmosphere about 180 kilometers above the surface of Blue Star, his cold eyes fixed on the massive creature at the dark void's edge, resembling the mythological dragon: "You, must be the strongest among all the invading Demigod life forms." "It's just unfortunate that I can now be called... Martial God!"

This was the great era of vast warships and the Star River, a time when the multi-universe was shattered and countless Cosmic Fragments were scattered across the void, forming the boundless Shattered Starry Sea. Immortal Domain Dao soldiers, mechanical gods, golden giants, wizard Dominators... An endless array of strange civilizations. Starry Sea Oddity, Genetic Potions, exoskeletal armors, Floating Land Origin... Treasures that could be found everywhere. Spectral Shuttle, Spectral Airship, Spectral Warship, Escort Ships, Battleships, Star-Annihilating Starships, hyperdimensional mother ships... The clearly stratified Xinhuo warships. Song Chi held a Zhu Tian Ruins Market in his hand and engaged in interstellar trade with the countless peoples of the Starry Sea. What? Titanium Crystals are worthless in your Star Domain? I'll take them all, damn it, this is a strategic resource! You call this a chunk of iron? This is Mixed Elemental Copper, the ultimate Enhancement resource! Ordinary ship cannon? Isn't this a golden Star-Annihilating Cannon? Quick... I'll buy it! ... Stretching across the stars, starting from the flame of human civilization.

In the neon of blue and purple, under the thick steel sky, at the forefront of this surge of data, lies the world post-tech revolution. It's also the dividing line between reality and illusion. Steel and flesh, past and future. In this place, the world outside and inside coexist. Everything in front of us feels like a wall of time within reach. The darkness is slowly creeping in. But hey, my friend, you gotta know, we can't just counter darkness with softness. Gotta use fire.

The first star that passed away extinguished two thousand years ago. Four hundred years later, the mysterious Calamity of Heavenly Fall destroyed the civilization of the previous era, returning thriving cultures to ignorance. Since then, stars gradually vanished, the Firmament grew dark and dim, and a new civilization rose from the starless wilderness, flourishing once more. Yet, what accompanied this were war, death, destruction, and hatred. The flames once aimed at the Firmament were used to slaughter the people of enemy nations, and the raining clouds once engineered to alter deserts were turned into floods that engulfed the land. Humans once again began to kill each other for wealth and power... but no one looked up at the sky. They lost the Guidance of the stars Above the Sky, forgetting the awe of gazing upon the Milky Way. They were all prisoners. One thousand six hundred years after the Calamity of Heavenly Fall, a young child awakened memories of his past life. He wanted to break the Cage, to throw off the shackles. He wanted to become a star. To return to Above the Sky. "I don't care about how the people of this world live, whether they're well-fed or not, whether they can dress warmly or live comfortably, whether they have dreams or hopes. I don't care about their loves and hates." "I just want to go Above the Sky." ——Ian.
