Not exactly everyone’s typical thought when they’re about to die. What will a cowardly young man do when reincarnated with the evil powers to redefine his destiny?

Locke is a middling officer in the Kingdom of Faustian's army. He happens to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, or... more>> the right place at the right time, depending on your perspective, and happens to save the kingdom's princess. As fortune would have it, love prospers, but in a world of peasantry and nobility, a middling, peasant-born soldier has no right to love a princess. Locke is nothing if not determined, however, and sets out to become someone worthy of loving the princess, someone her family can accept. But that path is neither short, nor safe, as our hero will soon discover. <<less

Honoo no Mirage (Mirage of Blaze) is a complexly-plotted novel which incorporates a large number of elements, including romantic melodrama, historical politics and supernatural fantasy. Japanese history predominates the heavily structured story-line, which mainly involves the continued aggression between power-wielding guardians ('possessors'), and the denizens of a 'feudal underworld'- a group of restless souls belonging to long-dead samurai from the warring states period who are attempting to re-ignite those age-old wars in present-day Japan.... more>>

Night of the wedding, “wife, be good, wipe the saliva.” She collected the handkerchief and wiped her lips. “Come, be good, blow!... more>>

Really taking me as a fool ah! Sadly he’s right, this big wedding night, facing a s*upid wife, wiping the mouth, not to even talk of urine.

Want to have a hot night with the new wife, but has snot on her face together with a runny nose.

Heavens ah, when will this bitter ‘b’ day end! <<less

Roan ran away 20 years ago from his rural village in the aim of becoming a Great General. However, all he got 20 years later was just a handful of money and the lowly position of squad commander of the First Legion’s.... more>>

In the end, he became a cold corpse in the battlefield… but somehow, he came back in the past.

“Alright. This time, I won’t become a Great General but a Monarch.”

His previous life’s aim was becoming a Great General, but, he only became a spearman squad commander.

This time, his life’s aim is becoming the Monarch.

“Then I guess I’d become at least a General, right?”

Roan, who remembers 20 years of his future, now starts his unstoppable march. <<less

They say to leave when the applause dies down, and so I tried to depart.... more>>

I intended to give the Empress, who had married me despite her utter disdain, the gift of our marriage annulment…

But the Empress glares at me and says,

[ Did you really think… I would let you go? ]

Something is going terribly wrong. <<less

Even the eldest son can’t stand it! Now I’m free!”... more>>

Rest was born the eldest son of the Count family in a powerful kingdom.He was forced to study various things necessary for aristocratic society to succeed him, saying, “Because he is the eldest son,” and he wanted to escape from this position by being fed up with such education and the world of aristocrats.

Rest took advantage of his stepmother, who had begun secretly to succeed his half-brother as the heir and Rest was expelled from the Count’s house as he had hoped. He planned to live a slow life in remote territory with his S-grade gift [craft skills], but it was the last undeveloped giant island what he was given.He began to develop a territory to live leisurely with his subjects, but the island, which was isolated from the outside world, was surprisingly free from boredom.

~This is a story about the pioneering of the strongest lord who uses the strongest gifts and solves everything with his [craft skills]~ <<less

I’m an imperial uncle; his imperial majesty’s uncle.... more>>

Once, someone with nothing better to do took a comprehensive survey of the current dynasty, and summed up the imperial court’s three great cancers.

Wang Qin leads in corruption; the treasury is never full.

Yun Tang favours a few, forming cabals; leading to corruption in our politics.

Prince Huai plays with power, and serves as the head of a hundred poisons — thus causing instability to the throne.

When they talk about the most venomous of vipers, the wicked one who plays with power, the biggest cancer of them all, they’re talking about me: this insignificant prince, Prince Huai, Chengjun.

I can only say that I feel rather hapless in the face of these theories.

In truth, I have been ever dutiful, ever devoted, devoid of intention to monopolise power, and possess even less of a heart to covet the throne. In the entire imperial court, I dare say there is no loyal subject more loyal than I.

But, most tragically, in all the realm, the matter of me being a loyal subject is something that not many would believe. <<less

I became a supporting character in a captivity-abduction classic novel set against the backdrop of a world war. Unlike the protagonist’s sister, who was treated coldly and abused at home, as “Diana Claire,” I was abducted in place of the protagonist in order to get out of this hell.... more>>

“Don’t leave me, princess. All right? You can’t die.”

The Duke that abducted me was a beautiful madman, an educated madman. He would visit me from time to time and stare at me as if I were an important piece of art he had carefully stored away. His eyes were ascetic yet strangely decadent, sensual yet full of flavor. I didn’t know why this man, who seemed insane, would do this to me.

What was inside the pretty wrapping paper of gentlemanly manners, elegant and graceful appearance, was a kind of madness. The man’s madness gave off a calm, eerie, and bizarre atmosphere like a work of art with a twisted meaning.

“I want to kill everyone except you, my Diana.”

She tried to control and tame this man, possessed by a cruel demon.

Originally, the word she always heard in life was “madman”. <<less

In the world of the near future, an epic war rages between the Earth Federation and the rebel space colonies that call themselves the Principality... more>> of Zeon. The most fearsome weapons of this new era are the robotic vehicles known as mobile suits, armored giants with the firepower of battleships. The Federation has pinned its hopes for victory on its advanced mobile suit prototypes, but when a young cadet named Amuro Ray becomes the pilot of the mobile suit Gundam, he discovers that machines alone will not be the decisive factor in the conflict. For a new stage of human evolution is dawning, and the future - if humanity has a future - may well belong to the Newtypes... <<less

The series begins in U.C. 0001, at the very beginning of human space colonization, when a space colony called Laplace is destroyed. The main story takes place in UC 0096, three years after the events of Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack and 27 years before Gundam F91.... more>>

The story revolves around Banagher Links, a seemingly normal boy living and going to school in the space colonies. His life changes one day when he meets a girl named Audrey Burne, as the encounter brings him into contact with a new Gundam and its connections to an item called "Laplace's Box." <<less

By its eleventh expansion pack, the massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) Elder Tale (エルダー・テイル Erudā Teiru) has become a global success, having a following... more>> of millions of players. However, during the release of its twelfth expansion pack: Novasphere Pioneers (ノウアスフィアの開墾 Nōasufia no Kaikon), thirty thousand Japanese gamers who are all logged on at the time of the update, suddenly find themselves transported inside the game world and donning their in-game avatars. In the midst of the event, a socially awkward gamer called Shiroe along with his friends Naotsugu and Akatsuki decide to team up so that they may face this world which has now become their reality along with the challenges which lie ahead. <<less

It is the turn of the century and humanity has ignorantly stepped into the starry space to lay themselves bare under the eyes of gods. The young man Luo Nan bears the sins of his forefathers. He walks out of a laboratory and is seen holding burning notes up high, his feet treading on the bones of gods. A myriad of living beings are formatted in writing. Universes are added and deleted in the star records.... more>>

Know now… All living beings be ready for me. Believe with certainty… For my mind is a universe. <<less

“Why should I only marry one man?” the female emperor declared. ... more>>

“In past generations, the emperor has had at least five concubines, and an average of fifteen. Now that I am emperor, I should have at least five concubines too. The son of a chancellor? The successor to a powerful family? If they are good, send them to the harem.

“My favorite one will become the male empress.” <<less

An ordinary thirty year old salaryman, Kim Seung-soo.... more>>

One day, he is spirited away into his old game ‘Darkworld’, and……

In the game which was incomparable to any hardcore difficulty, no, in the world that has now become reality, strangely familiar characters appear!

‘Wait, are they… my sub characters?

But, are the screws on their heads loose?

Kim Seung-soo reborn as Bloodknight, and his Demonic companions’ Darkworld odyssey! <<less

Han Tingxuan who started from scratch and now was president a big company died in a car accident.... more>>

Heaven blessed! He was reborn, but the target was a bit awful.

He was a punk, who got two mu of barren land, parents died, a husband, and a shabby hut.

He liked drinking, gambling and all bad habits, and good at brawling and beating his wife… What kind of person is that???

After going in such a body, Han Tingxuan was super sullen. But as he saw his husband… In a world there was no women but only men, he found that… it was not that bad now! <<less

Serel, a young boy living in the capital, calls himself just a librarian.
He works at the Royal Magical Library, where he spends his days organizing, reading, and spending time with books.... more>>

As a librarian, he thinks he's busy, but he's having fun, and he's doing his job just fine, but apparently the people around him think differently.

In the first place, it is abnormal to be the sole librarian of this huge library.
He has a huge amount of knowledge and is a living textbook.
I'm sure you'll agree with me.

I've been told that I'm the only court librarian in the capital, and I've been told this by people who have come to the library.
‘I'm just doing my job as normal’, I thought, as I went about my day at the library. <<less

Say, is it reasonable for someone to exploit millions of people in a virtual game for the sake of one's own selfishness?... more>>

Simply said, Yes, it's just a game after all.

As a through and through player who follows this principle, Zuo Chang believes that the function of [Marriage] that is implemented inside the game that he was playing is just a game mechanism, and he uses this mechanism to its greatest potential, using it as legitimate means to achieve victory. There is no emotion nor love involved in his ‘Wedding’ with his ‘Wife’, the only reason he does it is because the rewards that he got are plentiful.

Then, out of a sudden, he was thrown into the virtual game that he was playing by some random being that he does not know of.

Only when he was inside the game does he realize how scary is the ‘Wife’ that his character married to.

Turn out, she’s a Yandere

Damn it! No one told me I would be thrown into the game! If I were to know, I would choose a demure, kind and sane lady to marry instead! <<less

Did heroes write history or did history create heroes?... more>>

Someone returned to the time of the Three Kingdoms Era, which was originally just history to him, and he became a hero.

After that, it became a dance between heroes and history.

Then again, whether it was changing the course of the long flowing river of history or thinking of the heroes under his command like clouds, what was most unlucky was that he transmigrated into a minor emperor nicknamed “The Broken Jar”. <<less

Some people transmigrate into Emperors, others become wangye.... more>>

They live in luxury; their hands covering the Heavens.

Some people transmigrate into shizuns, or sect leaders.

They would have the respect of all, their powers supernatural.

Some unlucky souls become villains, but even with their terrible reputations they would still have enough power to summon rain from the sky, maybe even manage to kill off the protagonist.

But Li Changtian, a stand up young man from a good family, who died on the battlefield protecting someone, widened his eyes.

He! Transmigrated!

Into a person everyone wanted dead, with an unabsolvable crime!

Li Changtian: “??? Wait wait, did something go wrong somewhere?”

The magistrate of the Imperial Justice Bureau, Yan Shu, who hated injustice more than anything in the world had just stepped onto his head and said in an ice cold voice: “A life for a life.”

Li Changtian: “&%%%￥&￥#@” <<less

A young man, Haru Tajima, wanders into another world while playing a video game. Despite his bewilderment at this magical world, he tries to use his modern knowledge to make a name for himself... but finds that he isn't the first hero from another world.

The six prefectures of Zhongbo were offered to foreign enemies on a silver platter, and Shen Zechuan was taken into custody in the capital, reduced to a drowning dog* loathed and condemned by all. Xiao Chiye followed the scent of the furor and made his way over. But instead of setting others on him, he kicked Shen Zechuan with his very own leg, rendering the latter an invalid. Who would expect this invalid to turn around and bite him in a counterattack until he was all drenched in blood? That was the start of an epic feud between both men who tore at each other every time they come face-to-face with one another.... more>>

“Fate wants to bind me here for life, but this is not the path I choose. The yellow dust submerged my brothers deep under. I have no wish to bow in submission to an illusory fate. The imperial edict can’t save my troops, and the imperial court can’t fill the stomachs of my mounts. I’m no longer willing to lay down my life for this purpose. I want to surmount that mountain. I am going to fight for myself.”

Note : a 'drowning dog' is someone who is down and out, having lost favor or power. <<less

"There are trees in the mountains and there are branches on the trees,... more>>

I adore you, oh! You do not know."

~From Song of the Yue Boatman

—

Hundreds of rivers converge, the thousand-mile rise of Taishan’s bluffs, and a myriad of waves surge in the Eastern Sea.

All beneath the heavens, is the extent of the ruler’s land. All within the territory of a state, are each the ruler’s subjects.

Beacons light up all over the Divine Land, danger lurks in every corner of the State of Yong.

After reuniting with Geng Shu, Jiang Heng begins to put all his effort into assisting the ruler of Yong State’s plans, but he unexpectedly falls into perilous situations time and time again. Geng Shu, who always accompanied Jiang Heng by his side, is acutely aware that the various mishaps all appear to be closely related to Jiang Heng’s past—was Jiang Heng really his own blood-related younger brother?

These two extraordinary young men wander throughout the country from state to state, experiencing trials, however, the truth obtained uncovered a cruel and unexpected past that couldn’t be erased. The lingering heroic spirits each possess their own unfulfilled long-cherished wishes. With the great Divine Land finally unified, how would they confront their own choices of the future?

The seven stars of the Northern Sky bore witness to the end of a stormy period of history; until the ruins once again transform into the richly ornamented tall towers of a manor.

When the blazing city lights languidly flicker, those people and events worth engraving into memory, will forever be preserved within every stroke of ink in a painting of this vast expanse of rivers and mountains. <<less

Four seemingly normal brothers, Hajime, Tsuzuku, Owaru and Amaru, begin to discover that they may not be as normal as they once thought. Though fiercely... more>> protective of each other, the entire world seems to be against them. <<less
