Anchor Chart Realistic

Japan – National News Broadcast The polished news anchor sat upright, her gaze sharp as she adjusted the stack of papers before her. The newsroom behind her hummed with quiet urgency, the weight of the moment settling over the broadcast. "Authorities are baffled by a sudden and unexplained surge in sleep-related deaths across Japan," she began, her voice steady yet tense. "More and more citizens are passing away in their sleep without any prior health concerns. Experts are working tirelessly to determine the cause, but no clear explanation has emerged. Authorities urge the public to remain vigilant and report any unusual symptoms before bedtime." A graphic appeared, displaying the spike in fatalities over the past month. Behind her, unsettling photographs flickered across the screen—blurred images of individuals found in their beds, their faces frozen in expressions of terror. The anchor’s tone shifted. "Health officials recommend citizens avoid excessive fatigue and maintain healthy sleep habits. More updates will follow as investigations continue." --- United States – Paranormal Podcast In a dimly lit podcast studio, the host leaned forward, his eyes wide with curiosity. Across from him, a rugged man in a worn flannel shirt, gripping a faded photograph in one hand and a beer can in the other, leaned back in his chair. "So, you're telling me you saw this creature firsthand?" the host asked, clearly intrigued. The man scoffed, shaking his head. "Damn right, I did. Ugly thing had wings bigger than my body—slow but sneaky. Thought it could steal my pigs again, but I was ready this time—camera in one hand, shotgun in the other." He slammed the table for emphasis, then shoved the blurry image toward the host. The photograph depicted a small, red-skinned humanoid figure with large, bat-like wings, its eyes glowing faintly in the darkness. "Spit, the thing didn’t know what hit it when I fired!" the man chuckled, his voice full of excitement. The host held up the picture to the live chat. "Alright, what do you think? Mothman? Demon? Or is our friend here just seeing things?" The chat exploded with theories—some skeptical, others eager for the investigation to continue. --- China – Liangyuan Street Market Surveillance footage from a bustling night market in China captured a chilling scene. A woman in a red qipao walked gracefully through the crowd, her figure striking in the soft glow of lanterns. Suddenly, she paused. Her body flickered—like a glitch in a video—before vanishing completely, as though she had never existed. The footage zoomed in, replaying in slow motion. In the final frame before she disappeared, her face distorted unnaturally, her eyes hollow and empty. The screen cut abruptly to black.

His name was 25. On Avalis, he was just one of many tasked with fulfilling missions for Earth’s people. This time, he was given a simple one—live as Zeno Han and have an ordinary life. Easy. Or so he thought. The moment he took over Zeno’s body, someone shoved a script into his hands. “You’ll be perfect for this role!” And just like that, he was on set. [Fame Meter: Unable to Measure. Off the charts.] Doctor? Check. Pilot? Check. Eunuch? …Regrettably, check. Every script forces him to relive past missions, and somehow, he’s nailing every performance.

The MMORPG 'EVR' was released unexpectedly one day, along with its advanced equipment that allowed players to fully immerse themselves in the game, even though prior VR technology wasn't nearly as realistic. To prevent people from replacing their real lives with the game, the servers were shut down during the day and on weekends. I was the best at the game, but since I had no friends or family, I could only watch and bet on sports while waiting for the servers to reopen—until the day I died and regressed to a week before the game was released. I know everything that will happen in the game. I know the game is not just realistic; it's real. And for some reason, I don't need to log out! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a no-harem story. It starts off quickly after narrating unnecessary details, so I suggest reading at least a few chapters to get to the heart of the story.

Adopted as a starving child, Wolf was taken in by the queen of Aestonia. She raised him to be a man of value and through his own efforts, Wolf even managed to overshadow her real son William. But with the king’s death, the two brothers must enter a competition to prove their worth against numerous other warriors. Only once they’d defeated them would the two face each other, and the result of their battle would decide the future king. But it would be tame if that alone was the reward, wouldn’t it? Thus, the victor must choose a queen from the crowd witnessing their battle, and for Wolf, the answer couldn’t have been easier. The queen, of course! He’ll have her–even if he has to defeat her true son in front of everyone! However, this is just the start of his many conquests for the whole is filled with opportunities and many such women to make into his queens!

Isekai, self-insert MC, overpowered, science fiction, strategy and spaceship battles. Chat-GPT for chapter 1-8. Starting from chapter 9, I will properly write. This is for anyone who see all of that and are still interested: I want to make a novel with as realistic physics as possible. I will, almost definitely, create a bunch of magical sci-fi stuff, especially later on, but I will try to stick to established rules as much as possible. Much of the orbital mechanics and warfare is learnt from the game Children of a dead Earth and Kerbal Space Program. This is my very first book, so expect no planning and shitty execution, even with GPT.

Memories shape who we are—they define us, anchoring us to our pasts. They are like videos, playing endlessly in our minds. But everything changed one day when people began to relive their memories. However, it wasn’t the pleasant ones that resurfaced. Instead, they were forced to experience their worst moments—or even memories that weren’t their own. Those who managed to survive this haunting experience found themselves watched by strange creatures, and in turn, were granted their powers. As if the world weren’t already thrown into chaos, these same bizarre monsters began to manifest on Earth, threatening humanity with the very real prospect of extinction. Amidst this upheaval, a small, seemingly insignificant beast was born. But it quickly rose to power, only to be betrayed and killed in a cruel twist of fate. Or so it seemed—because somehow, the beast found itself reborn in the body of a human.

When CERN's collider collapsed into an 11D obsidian sanctum, I became the city's last glitching data stream. Vampires etch reverse-thermodynamic laws into neon with entropy algorithms, werewolf howls rip gauge field fissures—and my DNA helix encodes Yang-Mills steady-state solutions, each activation carving three years from my quantum-chronometer heart. 72 hours to either blood-recompile the cosmic code or watch humanity forged into Observer Civilization's dimensional anchors.

in the world where other races exist, humanity being at the bottom of the chart must find away to survive

Apollo Musashi, the main character is a hard worker. Training each day to get stronger and stronger. He has aspirations of being above everything and has the will to make it happen. With this story I dream of bringing back old Shounen and characters that are mean in just the right way. I've seen many new shows try to make their characters as nice as possible, and although I'm making my character nice, he going to be a bit of a pain in the ass. I'm going to try to make the most realistic characters I can make within the confines of this verse. I watch most things nowadays realizing many of these character are just too unbelievably nice with no outbursts and I find that entirely unrealistic. No, I'm not going to have a harem for the main character, because that too I believe is entirely unrealistic from the real world. Without a further adue, I hope you like it.

Shantel Hale has spent her life trying to live above the dark shadows her mother’s reputation cast over her. She has seen powerful men fall at Jessica Hale’s feet— the infamous seductress popularly termed the modern day ‘Jezebel’ only to be left ruined afterwards.

But in their past, there was one exception—Avni. She was their light, their anchor, the only warmth in their cold world. Fate, however, was merciless. They lost her. Years later, on a mission, a cryptic message from a homeless man haunts them: "One day, you will find what you lost."

But some truths are meant to stay buried… Will love and destiny bring them together again, or will this second chance lead to even greater heartbreak?

Keith, a regular office worker from Earth, suddenly transmigrates to the world of the novel he had been reading for the past decade. The new world, which was also called Earth, was slightly different. People with various powers existed who were called awakeners, making this world comparatively dangerous and also mysterious. While he was thrown into the novel's world, he was also given a mystical ability to grant systems to other people. Armed with his special ability, he slowly climbs up the power ladder by taking "taxes" from the people he would give systems to. The only question that remained, was what would a realistic normal man, when faced with a similar minded protagonist, do when their goals opposed each other.

Acheron Noctis should have died the night his family was massacred. Instead, he escaped—sealing the portal behind him and vanishing into a world that was never meant to be his. For years, he has lived in the shadows, haunted by a past he cannot return to. But the past has never stopped searching for him. When an ancient portal stirs in his presence, the illusion of his freedom shatters. Zephyris Vailen—once his closest friend, now the ruthless leader of the Keepers—has spent years weaving a web of deception, ensuring that if Acheron ever returned, he would be seen as the murderer who destroyed his own bloodline. But Zephyris’s obsession runs deeper than vengeance. He doesn’t just want Acheron’s return—he wants to own him, mind and soul. With the world turning against him, Acheron finds an unlikely anchor in Cytus Lysell, a sharp-tongued wanderer who refuses to believe the lies. But clearing his name is impossible when the truth itself is drowning—buried beneath illusions, rewritten memories, and a villain who never loses. As Acheron fights to reclaim his identity, the abyss that once nearly swallowed him calls again. And this time, if he cannot break free, he won’t just lose himself—he’ll belong to Zephyris forever.

This series exists for the purpose of practicing my imagination skills. I will not write anything unless I do so it with complete immersion and realistic graphics from within my head. If I end up rushing myself, I will stop and start until I can maintain a highly intense emotion from beginning to end. Whether or not these stories end up having consistency or are random moments that may seem like nothing at an outsider's glance, they will all be significant memories to me. Through these experiences, I should be capable of being truly creative and passionate at that, not just being able to perfectly fake creativity like I have been for the past couple of years in the name of 'efficiency'.
