Growing Sideways

Reiji Kazama, a 17-year-old delinquent with bruised knuckles and a shattered heart, is known across Mishiro High for his short temper and constant brawls. He doesn’t trust adults, doesn’t care for grades, and his motto is: “The world hits first, so I hit back harder.” But one rainy afternoon, after another fight gone sideways, a woman offers him her umbrella and gently wipes the blood from his cheek. Her kindness is like a foreign language to him. He doesn’t realize she’s his new substitute homeroom teacher—Asuka Minazuki, 26, warm as sunlight, with a soft laugh and a five-year-old daughter named Yume who calls Reiji “Punch-kun.” Thrown into unexpected class dynamics, childish mischief, and late-night heart-to-hearts, Reiji finds himself falling for a woman who’s everything he isn’t—gentle, patient, and full of light. But Sensei has scars of her own. And loving someone like Reiji may bring more pain than peace. Can a boy who only knows how to fight… learn to protect what he loves?

Threadless When memory doesn’t fade — it rearranges. In a quiet town where nothing ever seems to change, two students — Rin and Aro — begin to notice the seams of reality pulling apart. It starts with a thread. A memory that doesn’t belong. A face seen once in a dream, then recognized in daylight. As familiar places begin to shift — rain that doesn’t fall, mirrors that blink first, classmates that no one remembers enrolling — the two are drawn into something older than their lives: a forgotten architecture of rewritten memories, unfinished stories, and a hidden system that watches back. Together, they begin to unravel the layers of their world, discovering abandoned workshops where time is forged, truth is mined, and forgotten selves echo like song fragments. But the deeper they go, the more the story starts writing itself — and the line between who they are and who they once were begins to blur. Now, with their names etched into a book they haven’t written yet, Rin and Aro must decide: Are they here to remember the past? Or to finish what someone never dared to start?

This is a story of a prince who is abandoned by his family to the Borderland of the Kingdom, they thought he died but the another soul from the earth taken his body and with the help of system we will see his journey

Everyone has a dream, right? Though it varies from person to person, it's still more or less the same. As for Eric, he had already achieved his dream at a young age. At age 26, he had already made what people call generational wealth from cryptocurrency trading. He could now retire himself and his family. He could now afford to take things slow and enjoy all the good things the world has to offer. But who knew that he would die the same day he was about to start the new chapter of his life. But it seems like the universe of fate wasn't done with him, as after experiencing the premium version of truck-kun and final destination, he was given the opportunity to reincarnate into a magical world by an Omnipotent Being. And it was the so-called random Omnipotent Entity that carelessly caused his death. And had also given Eric the opportunity to reincarnate and a gift to help him survive the new, brave world he was going to find himself in. With a new chance at life, all Eric wanted was to achieve the dream he had achieved in his previous Iife. But unfortunately for him, this world was far more complicated than Earth. Dangers lurked everywhere and his gift didn't make things easier as it was something that every being ultimately wants—a special variant of immortality. [You died] [You have acquired a skill: Lightning Magic.] [You will revive in three seconds.] [No revival point was saved. You will revive on the spot by default.] “Yeah, this is going to be fun,” A maniacal laugh echoed through a foggy, gloomy forest. No Yuri, No NTR, Harem, Succubus, EIf, Angel, Vampire, Cat girls, Dragon, Fox Girls, Monster Girls, Slaves, Princess, Yandere, Demon, Dragons, Giants, Primordial Entities—Godesses of course.

Beom-seok was a virgin gamer with a simple dream: to get his first kiss. After years of loneliness, he finally lands a girlfriend, a shy, nerdy otaku girl. The day they planned to share their first kiss was also the day he completed their favorite RPG. But fate had other plans for him. And smashes into him. Literally. And just like that, he died. Just inches away from her lips. The next time he opens his eyes, he’s no longer on Earth—but inside the world of The Magic Academy's Genius Scholars, as his avatar: Arthur Arcain, a character so fragile and pitiful he was only added to the game for fan service. Ridiculed by players. Unable to store unrefined mana or force. And destined to die no matter what route you played. But Beom-seok knew the truth: Arthur wasn’t just some extra. He was the sole male heir of a powerful, all-female demonic dragon clan, and he possessed the greatest magical potential in the game—if only his body could handle unrefined mana and force. Luckily for Beom-seok, a mysterious system activates, changing everything. A system that links his survival to the game's female leads. A system that rewards him for completing their scenarios… and growing their affection bonds. The more they fall for him, the more refined mana, force and stats he gains, making his power and talent close to none. But there’s a catch. If he fails a scenario? The world ends. And he dies.

ROMANCE! APOCALYPSE! DRAMA LOVING GOD! REBIRTH! The hospital lights buzzed faintly above her, the edges of her vision already blurring into white. Blood pooled in her lungs. No family. No friends. Just the relentless beeping of a monitor counting down her last seconds. Rosalie stared at the sterile ceiling, tears sliding sideways across her temple. "I didn’t even get to do anything." She whispered. "No love. No one will remember I was here. If anyone’s out there… God, fate, whatever you are, hear me. Let me live again. Somewhere. Anywhere. Let me matter." When she woke up again, she wasn’t Rosalie anymore. She was Mei Shen, a forgotten noblewoman trapped in a story of cold nights and cruel tyrant hands. One night. No promises.

So picture this: you wake up in a rusty, beetle-shaped contraption sliding sideways across a murder-dune in a place called Scarragon. Your shoulder is basically shredded toast, your memory's fuzzy, and there’s absolutely no customer service in sight. That was Grahilo’s morning. Then things got weird. After limping through the desert like a very angry tumbleweed, he spots a glowing green orb chilling in the sand like it’s waiting for a meet-cute. The orb hypnotizes him. Forces him to swallow it. Cue excruciating cosmic body reboot. There’s screaming, convulsing, and then—boom. New upgrade unlocked: silver hair, neon eyes, and gamma veins that look like someone installed a nuclear reactor in his circulatory system. After that? He tests out his fancy powers. Accidentally punches the ground so hard it opens an ancient ruin. Then he raises his hand and materializes a black dagger with green runes and “probably haunted” vibes. Grahilo officially levels up from "lost desert guy" to "walking superhero origin story." Kirigaar, the city that kicked him out like last season's leftovers? They’re about to regret that. Grahilo vows to leave Scarragon completely and start fresh in a new country. One small problem: the country is dealing with portal chaos. Monsters, energy signatures, things that snarl and break physics. Naturally, Grahilo decides to join the local defense force. And while he might not understand the rules, he’s got glowing eyes, punch magic, and void daggers. He’s the guy they didn’t ask for—but might just need. Expect mystical relics, combat training, teammates who aren’t sure if he's a threat or a miracle, and one gamma-born outcast rewriting his fate with every sarcastic thought and every step forward.

Skie, a Black girl with stars in her eyes and a voice too big for the walls around her, has always shared her world with Conner—her charming, loyal next-door neighbor and childhood best friend. They've grown up side by side, tethered by backyard games, scraped knees, and the kind of bond that doesn't need words. But everything begins to shift the summer a quiet moving truck pulls up to the house across the street.

(Currently being revised so the story may be incoherent) "Knowledge, There you are! We need to do this quickly before the other gods notice." Valor says as he motions for her to approach. "I'm surprised you agreed to help with this." Gluttony adds with a cruel smile. "I never would have thought the God of Knowledge would be the one to give us aid." Knowledge mearly nods at his words. "Now, this is it! That crazy bat from the far continent has made some crazy monsters before but this one is the cream of the crop. Fully capable of self-evolution and self-replication. It can breed a whole army of different monsters by gathering the essence of other lifeforms!" Valor says as he points to a large egg on the ground. She nods again. "You know, I thought you'd be as excited as I am with this? Endless war and power; we'll have full control of the system once this thing begins its rampage." Knowledge raises her hands in the air and shakes them unenthusiastically. "As sarcastic as ever I see. Well, whatever. Place your hand hand here and help us with the seal." She does as she is told and a huge beam of light descends upon the egg; but her attention is elsewhere. Using the ceremony as a distraction, Knowledge brings lost souls from other worlds and implants them in unsuspecting inhabitants. She can see it. Tiny seeds of change have been sewn.

"You got it wrong. What you needed wasn’t money. They do it to you. Yeah, that was basically it. What you really needed was... support. Care. Love. You need to grow up. And understand that money means everything — and nothing. Because the things you chase? They can vanish in the blink of an eye. You should know that by now." ---- Nova was only fourteen when the world first called her special. A song, a screen, and a million views later — she was the girl with the voice, the face, the future. But nobody warned her about the price of becoming someone. As fame wrapped its glittering hands around her life, Nova let go of the people who mattered most — her family, her friends… and Caleb, the only one who ever saw the real her. With each red carpet and fake smile, her soul faded, and the dream she once chased turned into a prison she built with her own hands. By twenty-two, she had it all. By twenty-three, she lost everything. Now at twenty-six, Nova is done pretending. This is not a story about a pop star. It’s a story about growing up too fast, losing yourself too easily, and finding your way back — when no one’s watching. A raw, emotional, and unfiltered tale of identity, healing, and the slow, painful beauty of rediscovery. ---

They say war takes a piece of you. For him, it took everything — and gave something else in return. In a war-torn future where humanity clings to survival across shattered worlds, a single fireteam wages a desperate retreat from the alien force known as the Upyr — a biomechanical species that doesn’t kill its enemies… it repurposes them. When a mission goes sideways, the unnamed protagonist is left behind, captured, and dragged into the nightmare of an Upyr research facility. There, beneath black suns and sterile lights, he becomes the subject of grotesque experiments: his body flayed, remade, and fused with invasive alien technology — not as a soldier, but as a prototype. Implanted with the Carrion Fork — a living nanite weapon — and sheathed in Wraithskin stealth armor, he emerges as something no longer human. Memories blur, identity fragments, and purpose becomes a ghost. But he remembers one thing: his name was once spoken with love. And the ones who left him behind? They're still out there. Still fighting. Now, hunted by the Upyr and feared by the species he once protected, he must decide if there’s enough left of him to save anything — or if the monster they built is all that remains.
