future

[Simulation shall commence.] On this fateful day, the world was stunned by the appearance of ancient animals that were supposed to have gone extinct for millions of years. Huge sinkholes appeared in every corner of the world, becoming a tunnel for the ancient animals to emerge to the surface. Humans have found an answer to one of the biggest mysteries in human history. Hollow Earth is real. Here, humans will wrest their lives to explore this new world that has existed for thousands, if not millions, of years underneath them. Before the start of his exploration, Clovis came across a place called ‘Another World Mall.’ Dwarven Sword, Magical Elven Clothes, or Giant Race Toy? Everything can be found in this ‘Another World Mall.’ As an aspiring Subterranean Explorer, how would he utilize this ‘Another World Mall’ to become the greatest explorer of all time and find the truth about the simulation?

After obtaining the Mech Designer System, Ves aims to create the greatest mechs in the galaxy! In the far future, the galactic human civilization has entered the Age of Mechs. The countless lesser powers of humanity have come to adopt mechs as their main weapons of war. Only a small number of humans have the right genetic aptitude to pilot these destructive war machines the size of buildings. Born to a military family in the edge of the galaxy, Ves Larkinson is one of the many people who lacks the talent to earn glory in battle. Instead, he became a mech designer. Helped by his missing father, Ves has obtained the mysterious Mech Designer System that can help him rise in the galaxy and beyond. His mechs based on the principles of life quickly allows him to rise to prominence. Powerful and highly compatible with mech pilots, his products have the potential to take the market by storm. However, success does not come easily, and countless challenges bar his ability to sell his mechs to a market eager for innovation! With the sins of the human race in the galactic arena slowly catching up, Ves must navigate the perils of the ultra-competitive mech market and maintain control over his growing organization of misfits. This is the golden age of mechs. This is the golden age of humanity. The question is, will it last?

RISE AGAINST THE HORRORS The collapse of the world did not come from a computer glitch during the Y2K scare but from an unknown interdimensional rift that unleashed a suffocating miasma and monstrous horrors upon Earth. This calamity killed half of the male population and granted most women the ability to wield [Mana], a mystical energy that elevated them above their powerless male counterparts, who were labeled as [Casters]. Yet even this gift proved insufficient to hold back the tide of horrors—until the arrival of the Radiant Empress. The Radiant Empress, a divine and mysterious savior, repelled the darkness and reshaped civilization. She gifted humanity the [Edentree], a beautiful crystal-like tree that wards off the Rift's terror, as well as the [Edenfruit], a fruit-like artifact that transformed women into [Sororitaes], powerful magical warriors of love and peace, who became the bulwark against the Rift’s terrors. By the year 2087, humanity survives within towering Ark-Cities, protected by the Empress and her daughters. Society, now ruled by a matriarchal Queendom, reveres the supersoldier Bellatrix and magical girls Sororitae as defenders while relegating men to a fragile and subordinate role. When it comes to the male-to-female ratio, it is left at 1:5, skewed yet manageable. Women became the majority while some men were relegated to minor roles. This balance is shattered when an anomaly appears: a young man who awakens unknown powers once thought impossible for his kind. Unlike Edenfruit’s blessing, his abilities are raw and disruptive, resonating beyond the established order. His existence threatens the foundation of the world, not just the horrors from beyond but also the Queendom. Will he be the herald of salvation or one of the world's latest horrors?

This isn’t a story of heroes and villains. In a fractured universe where justice and chaos blur, people are not saviors—they are survivors. Dreamers. Fighters shaped by a world that forces them to choose who they become. The Judgement Order maintains peace through control, offering the illusion of choice while quietly shaping society to its will. Opposing them is the Plasma Nexus, a rebellion that fights for freedom… even if that freedom leads to destruction. But what is freedom without order? And what is order without truth? At the center of it all is Iver Tanaka, the Masked Drifter—a boy forged by tragedy, searching for purpose in a world that sees him as a monster. He doesn’t have the answers. And neither do we. Through his journey, SUNDIAL explores identity, survival, and the cost of choice. It asks a simple question with no easy answer: Would you fight for freedom… even if it meant embracing chaos? Or would you accept control… in exchange for peace? There are no right sides here. Only consequences. Welcome to SUNDIAL. Freedom isn’t always what it seems. And neither are the people fighting for it. "SUNDIAL" is a sci-fi manga about survival and rebellion in a chaotic galaxy ruled by the oppressive Judgment Order. It follows Iver Tanaka, a 17-year-old scavenger from Earth's slums with the unique ability to manipulate friction. Known as the Masked Drifter, Iver works for his own survival until he's drawn into the struggle of the Plasma Nexus, a small rebellion fighting for freedom. As Iver uncovers truths about his past and the universe's corruption, he faces tough choices between selfish ambition and becoming a symbol of hope in a lawless world. The story combines intense action, morally complex characters, and a gritty, dystopian setting, exploring what it means to fight for survival and justice.

INTERTWINED (WHEN TIMETAKES YOU BACK) What if the past held your future? When Isabella “Bella” Carter, a brilliant, skeptical college student from the city, steps into her campus lab that fateful day, she expects to witness science in motion, not magic. But one wrong spark sends her spiraling through time, tumbling from her modern world into the ancient Kingdom of Joseon, where honor rules, secrets kill, and one misstep can cost your life. Waking in a world that feels like a dream and a nightmare entwined, Bella becomes an outsider in every sense, her skin, her speech, her clothes mark her as something other. Yet amid suspicion and whispers, a widow and her spirited young daughter take her in, offering not just refuge, but the first flicker of belonging in a world that shouldn’t exist for her. But fate isn’t done with her yet. When Bella saves a wounded stranger on the roadside, she has no idea she’s just altered the course of history, because that stranger is Crown Prince Lee Ji-ho, heir to the throne and prisoner of duty. Bound by gratitude and curiosity, he seeks her out, and from that moment, their lives become perilously intertwined. Drawn into the glittering yet treacherous palace life, Bella discovers a world of dangerous beauty, where power wears a smile, betrayal hides behind silk screens, and every whispered secret could be her undoing. As her bond with the prince deepens into something forbidden, she faces an impossible choice between love and survival, between destiny and return. With rebellion staring in the shadows and time itself beginning to unravel, Bella must decide: is she meant to go home, or was she brought here for a reason that defies every law of nature? “Intertwined (When Time Takes You Back)” is a sweeping, emotional, and time-bending historical drama where romance burns through centuries, and one woman’s journey through the past might just rewrite the future.

In the future world, high-tech as magical as magic and bizarre events beyond reason prevail, and bloody primitive rituals rampage in the dazzling cyberspace. And the group known as Apprentice Death Gods are the rulers of the world. Using superpowers far beyond the ordinary, Death Gods have brought peace and stability... but at the same time, they have also brought oppression. Mortals can never compete with gods, this was an eternal and unchanging axiom of the world, but the appearance of Yun You changed it all. She looked at the lofty gods, then at the humble mortals, and calmly said... "Come." "I will teach you how to hunt gods." ...

In times of war… What is a Battle Mecha engineer expected to do? Are they expected to do research and realize their imagination? How about a Battle Mecha pilot? Are they expected to enter battle with their mechas as they display their exquisite control through bizarre and bewildering techniques? What about a member of the special scouts? Are they expected to infiltrate deep into the enemy lines as they use stellar unarmed fighting skills to suppress the enemy with a single move? Or are they expected to make use of disguises and stealth techniques to take out the enemy? And what about a military officer? Are they expected to analyze the outcome of a battle? Or are they expected to create brilliant strategies to triumph over the enemy through a miraculous move? For someone who excels in human psychology, deceit, assassination, and disguise, what happens when that person is merged with all those professions? This is the story of a cowardly, wretched, and despicable fatty.

In the post-apocalyptic era, amidst the wasteland and chaos, the great path reaches the heavens. Mad Outer Gods, uncontrollable cursed cultivation methods, extraordinary martial artists facing ominous old age... Above the starry sky, deities circle, and below, ghosts roam at night! In this doomsday scenario, Xu Shu carries the "Primordial Scroll" and transmigrates. Through a simulation game, he achieves one exclusive accomplishment after another, seeking a sliver of hope for survival. The ten-day apocalypse, the Dragon King returns, resurrects his lover, and saves the world; With a passionate and generous heart, he fights and conquers while carrying the burden of a grieving father whose child was stillborn... As more and more accomplishments are achieved, he gradually lets himself go within the simulation game. Until... A true disciple of the Female Void Palace is pregnant overnight, announcing an emergency lockdown; The long-extinct master of the White Jade Capital rises from the grave, destroys enemies with a wave and proves his Dao as a Great Emperor; A shepherd boy arrives at the gates of the Holy Temple, claiming to be Ye Su; Moreover, a young man riding a cow attains enlightenment, leaving Hangu Pass and preaching with a scroll: - The human race must strengthen itself. You may admire me, but there's no need to worship me; - Together, we punish those who claim to be gods! ... Dreams reflect reality, and more and more people begin to spread his name and words across the land.

Dreams are… a reality that only those who are capable can speak about. This was an era marked by the births of geniuses! This was an era where heroes could be found everywhere! The fierce conflict between the aristocrats and the civilians, the open and veiled battles between the Federation and the Empire, the restlessly lurking extraterrestrials… When the principles of truth were within the range of battleship cannons, when order had no place in this world… Mu Fan, with the mysterious intelligent life “Black” and his unwavering will, fiercely tore open the magnificent Great Galaxy Era!

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.

In a world torn apart by war, a soldier faces the ultimate betrayal—by the woman he once loved. Amid fire, ash, and shattered lives, he struggles to survive and protect what remains of his family. Every step through the battlefield pushes him closer to the edge, as innocence dies around him and humanity’s cruelty becomes undeniable. Blood, loss, and heartbreak mark the path of the forgotten. This is a story of love, betrayal, and survival in a world where war takes everything—even the people you hold closest. “This story contains mature themes, emotional trauma, and violence. Reader discretion advised.”

In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, humanity stands upon the precipice of annihilation, its fate dangling by a frayed thread amidst the endless storm of war. Across the stars, the Warp boils with madness as the Dark Gods weave their eternal conspiracy, whispering blasphemies that twist reality and chain the future to their will. Yet, from beyond the veil of certainty, a figure emerges, an anomaly, a scourge upon the predestined path. The Doom Slayer! Herald of ruin, breaker of chains, scourge of demon and tyrant alike! May your blade feast upon the lifeblood of the damned. May your wrath echo through the galaxies, and may your name be etched in fire upon the bones of eternity. KAR EN TUK!
