I’m Gotou Hitori—Who Are You?

In a Terra where men and women’s values—and power—are completely reversed, Chen Mo is a male Draco who only wants one thing: to erase his name and live quietly in obscurity. But the world will not let him. “I won’t let you run. You’re the key to continuing the Draco bloodline.” “You’re my brother. As a man, you can’t be this rude and coarse. I’ll discipline you personally.” “Little brother… are you truly my blood relative?” Like hell I am. I’m a fabricated nobody, conjured out of thin air—I don’t have anything to do with any of you.

Su Luo had been set up by capital and went bankrupt in Tokyo. On the verge of starvation, he awakened the Lose-Money System: as long as the investment projects he chose lost money, he could obtain corresponding profits from it. And so, just to be able to afford a meal, Su Luo decided to get involved in a field he had never touched before— Uma Musume. You can’t earn money outside your own understanding! As a so-called “armchair Uma Musume fan,” I’m going to invest hard in the most unremarkable horse girls—then lose races hard and lose money hard! A grey-haired horse girl can’t run fast? Then the race is guaranteed to lose, right?! Then I’ll invest in you! Tokai Teio, who broke a leg twice and should’ve retired? If she returns to the track, she’ll definitely get kicked to death by someone, right?! Then I’ll invest in you! The classic five-years-in-a-row losing Silent Suzuka? You’re even more of a money-burning general! I must invest in you! In the end, Su Luo stared at the neat row of trophies filling his trophy room and fell into silence. Su Luo: “No—seriously… you guys actually won races??”

A thousand years have passed, and the Invisible Empire has returned. But standing before them are three insurmountable mountains. Kurosaki Ichigo: The invincible 'stat monster,' the ultimate hybrid, and Captain of the 13th Division, known as the "Annihilation of All Things." Aizen Sosuke: The 'inspiring' God-King, Lord of the Soul King Palace, and master of the "Dream's Shattered Flower." Shigū Takeru: The veteran transmigrator, the "System's Favorite," the Second-Generation Captain-Commander, and the "God of Combat." ... "...I see. A nightmare, you say? What a truly good omen." "Your Majesty, what on earth are you talking about?"

Waking up, Lin Mo finds himself transmigrated as King, and right from the start he’s nose-to-nose with Vaccine Man. Just as he’s about to be taken out, a gleaming bald head abruptly flashes into view. “Normal Punch.” Lin Mo is saved—and the emotion-value system in his mind activates. [Detected Saitama’s wistfulness (extremely faint): +1 point.] [Detected Vaccine Man’s astonishment (residual): +5000 points.] From then on, Lin Mo begins a life of utmost caution, until the Monster Association attacks. Facing four dragon-level monsters, King quietly pulls out a five-minute True “Emperor Mode” trial card: “You know nothing about power.”

[Host, we must use love to save the beautiful girls! Change the tragic ending of the original story! Achieve a sweet romance! We’re going to do great things! Go!] "I refuse." My name is Yu Yachen, 23 years old. I live in the Lungmen urban district and I'm just an ordinary office worker. Although a thing called the [Succubus Nurturing Simulator] keeps pestering me, I haven't performed a single one of its so-called [simulations]. Because the system determined I'm remarkably similar to some guy named Yoshikage Kira, it also granted me a Stand ability called [Killer Queen]. This has amplified my inner desires. Thankfully, even though I sometimes transform into a perverted serial killer due to these desires, I always manage to get away with it and erase any police suspicion. [Host! What happened to the succubus nurturing we agreed on?! Ugh, forget it. This system is now issuing an ultimate mission! Complete one simulation to get [Star Platinum]! Complete five simulations to get [Wonder of U]!] [Mission Issued: Prevent the fall of the Reunion Movement.] "Those rewards are quite generous. Alright, I'll accept." After playing out countless 'hero saves the beauty' scenarios within the simulation, Yu Yachen opened his front door, ready to head to work. To his surprise, he found a group of beautiful girls surrounding his house. "Wait a minute, how did you all find my house?"

At the age of 20, Aoki Kai's relatively stable life came to an end when he was suddenly reincarnated in Japan. Now 17, his new life has a single, driving purpose: to study hard enough to get into the prestigious University of Tokyo. He believes that working harder can change his future and that by out-competing everyone else, he can forge a new path for himself. Even starting from an orphanage, he is determined to give his all and climb to the very top. That was his entire plan. Until, while studying in Tokyo, he met them—a group of girls who would change everything. According to Aoki's original calculations, he would get into Todai, try to become a civil servant, and live out his days. His life might be plain, perhaps even dull, but it would be secure. He firmly believed it was better to play it safe and live peacefully than to hesitate and become entangled in messy emotions. ...But if he had the choice. If he truly had the choice, Aoki Kai no longer wanted to be the "perfectly rational one" just watching from the sidelines.

Good news: the Ashen One has been isekai’d. Bad news: it’s Dark Souls 3! Luckily there’s a chat group—except something’s seriously off about his group! Kevin: “What savior warrior? I’m just a working stiff who just moved into the Golden Courtyard.” Doctor: “Holy crap, weren’t there supposed to be girls? Why is the one opening the coffin some mysterious masked guy? Also, stop calling me Rhodes Island’s Doctor—call me a Reunion college student.” Stelle: “Trailblazer? Don’t know her. I’m just a staffer in the Herta Space Station’s maintenance department.” Ashen One: “…What the hell? Why are my chat group buddies all spin-off versions of people? This makes zero sense!” Putting aside whether this bunch can even help him beat Teacher Gundyr… Right now, the four of them are facing a problem of their own: Rainy night. Overpass. Maybach. Staring at the figure ahead—mounted on a tall warhorse— Ashen One: “…This chat group might as well not exist.” But… since we’re here, he’s got no choice but to step up. Let that lunatic riding a horse on the highway learn what it means to be undead! Ashen One: “Do you really think you can kill me?!” ------- Enjoying the story?

“Who are you calling repressed, X?!” “Alright. Look— we’ve been living together for two months now. We’ve stayed in Lungmen all this time, too. Most days it’s just the two of us— a man and a woman under the same roof, constantly in each other’s space. This place is thirty square meters, for crying out loud— there’s barely such a thing as privacy here…” A brief pause. “But has anything happened between us?” “That only proves we’re close,” X replied. “And that we’ve been… careful.” “But I don’t want to be careful!”

Doctor Su Yi, suffering from amnesia, originally planned to spend his whole life with Exusiai in Penguin Logistics. But ever since Ch’en Hui-chieh forcibly kissed him, everything changed. Amiya: “All that once was… have you forgotten it all?” Kal’tsit: “I fulfilled what you hoped for. I learned to love. I found myself—only to lose you.” Savage: “I want to give little Amiya a complete home.” Exusiai: “Texas, the kid’s hungry. Go feed it.”

“Have you ever been a Uma Musume? And you’re out here writing nonsense—pure guesswork!” A former web-novel author is transmigrated into the world of Uma Musume, becoming an un-debuted little filly: Fūka Shirayuki. Fūka Shirayuki is just about to conquer the light-novel rookie awards, get an anime adaptation, and rise to the top of the entertainment world… when she unexpectedly awakens a system. As long as certain conditions are met, she can perfectly recreate scenes from her books in reality. So Fūka Shirayuki decides to start writing Uma Musume fanfiction. [Debut Race: Tokai Teio meets the greatest nemesis of her life, becomes “fermented tofu,” loses her debut, and returns to the dorm to secretly shed tiny pearl-tears.] [Total Popularity Points exceed 10,000. Reward: Perfect Recreation (1 use).] Writing novels makes you stronger? … When Tokai Teio first reads the fanfic, she thinks it’s just a prank. But she never expects that on debut day, some random Uma Musume will suddenly jump out, treat her like roadside trash, and kick her away! And as the book grows more and more famous, Orfevre and Elegant Lady—one after another—begin running into the “prophesied” endings! Years later, Fūka Shirayuki stands at the very pinnacle of the Uma Musume world. And only then do the others finally discover the pen name she’d been hiding. They fall into deep thought: “…So was this a criminal warning letter?”

“Got isekai’d because some ‘Jailbro ghost-meme’ shoved itself in my face? No problem—watch me speedrun my second playthrough!” Having just finished collecting every Persona mask, Bai Qian discovers he’s been added to a chat group—and to make things even worse, he’s swapped bodies with Bad-Ending Herta. Bai Qian is all set to follow the old, reliable routine: use spoilers to trade for resources. But he quickly realizes the group members aren’t quite what he imagined. Kiana: “Sirin, next move you defend—I’ll attack!” Toyokawa Sakiko: “Is this funny to you? Can someone tell me why I’ve become the embodiment of the Lord of Cinder? Where’s the Phantom Thieves crew you promised?!” Talulah: “From the skies over Ursus to the farthest edge of Terra—if I can’t save it from your failure… then let Terra burn.” Herta: “Before you say all that, can you at least pair up Laogushi and Machine-Head into a set of star-crossed sufferers?” Melina: “Here, I cast aside my dignity.” … “That’s not how a chat group works! You’re supposed to chat with me first, raise my affection, and trigger special events at specific locations—only then do you get to see my special CG!” Many days later, when Bai Qian sees the notification that the group has already finished building a basement, he’s stricken with grief. “What on earth is our chat group going to turn into?!”

【Day 1 after transmigrating — Japan, Tokyo. I’ve just turned five. Good news: my family is rich. And my childhood sweetheart in a kimono is adorable.】 【Day 3 — Bad news: it’s 1983. Japan’s bubble economy is about to burst. And, of course, my family happens to be in real estate…】 【Day 10 — Holy crap! A system! My childhood is saved! This skill makes money? Learn it! This skill boosts intelligence? Learn it! This skill lets me see through lies? Learn it! Combat skills too? Way too expensive. I’d only end up increasing medical bills and compensation costs. Not learning those.】 【Year 6 — The real estate economy collapses and companies go bankrupt left and right, but my family’s business is booming. We invest in schools, build bridges, and even take over the main family’s assets after they go under. The branch family’s time to shine has arrived!】 【Year 6 and 3 months — The main family’s woman remarries my father. My new bargain-priced cousin is really cute.】 【Year 15 — University entrance ceremony. I run into my childhood sweetheart for the first time in ages.

Yoriichi Tsugikuni has transmigrated. Looking back on his past, he failed to protect his wife. He could only watch as his older brother became a demon. He never even managed to kill Muzan… It could be said his entire life was filled with failure. At the age of eighty, he died of old age… and then awoke again as a boy named Tanjiro Kamado—wearing the familiar hanafuda earrings of the Sun. Given a second life, he swore that this time he would end Muzan’s life once and for all. By a twist of fate, he rejoined the Demon Slayer Corps—an organization he had once been expelled from—and discovered that in this era, the Hashira’s Breathing Styles all seemed to have problems, one way or another. “Water Breathing is far too fixated on defense. Flame Breathing has plenty of blazing fighting spirit, but no idea how to rein it in. And you…” Yoriichi looked at Shinobu Kocho, hesitating before he spoke. “Injecting poison into your own body… is that what you call Poison Breathing? That isn’t how a Breathing Style is meant to be used.” The smile on Shinobu’s face had long since frozen, a vein twitching faintly at her temple. Staring at this genius boy who had turned the Demon Slayer Corps upside down, Sanemi Shinazugawa let out a howl of despair: “Who in the world let him join the Corps in the first place?!”

With only one year left to live due to a terminal illness, Fujimura Hikaru drifted in a haze of emptiness—until he accidentally discovered something unbelievable: He had gained the ability to transform into a horse girl for a limited time, using that power to extend his own life?! But as a trainer, could he really accept dying alone and leaving behind the horse girls under his care? “No. I refuse!” Fujimura Hikaru snapped back fiercely. “I can’t… I can’t stand the idea of never seeing them again—never seeing the way they shine on stage…” “A tragic ending like that… I will never accept it!” Heh-heh. I’m going to live, no matter what!

“Manager, I should have reminded you many times—please keep your distance from those dangerous Abnormalities. Their related work will be handled by the employees.” “But those Abnormalities are really cute, aren’t they? Don’t you think so?” “Then, you believe…” Behind Angela, the office door slid open without a sound. The humanoid Sephirah from every department, along with the employees, stood in silence—every gaze turning in unison toward their Manager. “Compared to us… which side do you think is cuter—Abnormalities, or us?” “Well…” X shot a glance at Punishing Bird—perched affectionately on his shoulder, looking like a harmless little girl—then, without drawing attention, reached back and gently pressed a hand down on WhiteNight behind him, who was itching to spread its wings and do something. With great difficulty, he forced out an answer: “Uh… can I say you’re both equally cute?” In any case, this is a story that takes place in one of the City’s infinite parallel worlds—one that has slipped free of its intended track.

Twenty-two years after transmigrating, Su Ming had already confirmed this was a peaceful, everyday timeline—one with no Honkai at all. And he had long since become a winner in life: he’d married a rich, beautiful woman and was preparing to step into the role of CEO at ME Corporation, ready to reach the very peak of success. True, his wife’s white-haired, blue-eyed best friend—and another close friend with silver hair and gray eyes—both seemed to harbor certain feelings for him. But as a devoted, faithful man, Su Ming would never even consider being unfaithful. [Ding—] [Conditions met. “Degenerate Romance System” has been loaded. Please use whatever shameless methods you like to攻略 the heroine!] Sigh. Life was already pretty great as it was… but with a system, the possibilities were limitless. [Ding—] [Conditions met. “Classic Heroine Route System” has been loaded. Please use righteous, straightforward methods to win over the heroine!] Oh? Two systems? Interesting. Looks like I’ll have to let Mei down after all. Let me see what this is about! Wait—what the hell? There are dungeons too?! Don’t tell me this “romance system” is literally about clearing dungeon instances?! Damn it, what kind of rotten system is this? Hold on—are you kidding me?! Why is there Honkai energy resistance listed among the rewards?! Don’t tell me Honkai is about to happen?! This system is going to ruin me! No, please—give me back my relaxed, easygoing slice-of-life days!

After transmigrating into the world of DanMachi and arriving in Orario, Evan quickly realized something was… off. For some reason, every time he entered the Dungeon, it felt like the place he explored wasn’t quite the same as everyone else’s. Ambushes around corners. Mimics disguised as treasure chests. And the most infamous classics of all—those “three wolves at the doorway” and the “twin-archers on the castle walls.” The sheer malice packed into every encounter was honestly hard to bear. But it didn’t matter. Evan: “Anything that can’t kill me will only make me stronger!” And so, many years later… … Black Dragon: Breaks through the seal of Dragon Valley, runs into Orario’s strongest fighter. Stats are completely absurd—strong like a monster. Fights with everything it has and still can’t win. Damn it. Who the hell raised a freak like this?! Dungeon: Yeah… who knows… (guiltily averts its eyes)

First World: Re:Zero — Starting Life in Another World … [Supporting-Character Popularity-First System successfully bound.] “Hm?” “Kids these days really don’t know their place.” Walking down the street with his close friend, Suguru Geto, Gojo Satoru tipped his head back and sipped his drink, shaking his head with an exasperated sigh. “They actually said I’m a supporting character. Seriously—oh my.” “What is it, Satoru?” Suguru Geto looked at him, puzzled. “Nothing.” “Just some young sorcerer with no sense of the sky’s height used a weird technique on me.” Gojo waved it off like it was nothing. “Calling me a supporting character, of all things.” [Proceed to the first world and carry out the Popularity-First mission?] [Popularity gained during the mission can be exchanged for any items from your original world and any worlds you have traveled to.] “Oh?” “So there’s more to it?” Gojo raised an eyebrow. “Alright, then. Let’s give it a try—see what new tricks you’ve got.” “If it’s not fun, I will spank you, you know.” “And if you call me a supporting character again… I might actually get a little angry.” [Confirmation received. Beginning world selection… World confirmed… Re:Zero — Starting Life in Another World… Initiating transfer… Transfer complete.]
