A new, darker age is dawning. The greed of kings has ignited a seemingly endless war. As men fight, the monsters of the untamed wilds devour the frontier — villages abandoned, fields gone fallow, murderous bandits roaming the desolation. None of that matters to a nameless goblin slave. He just wants to eat as much food as he can shove into his mouth when no one is looking. But fate runs a twisted course, and instead he is whisked away to the far-off Iron Teeth Mountains. To stay alive, he will have to evolve into something more than a simple goblin and carve a bloody path through the forests of the North — if he can first get over his crippling fear of trees, and survive in a place where everything considers him the perfect size for a quick snack.

On the brink of death, a burned-out man in his late thirties is offered one last chance at life through experimental early access to a full-dive VRMMO — with one condition: he cannot log out. Sent into the world years before launch, he becomes something no developer planned: a seemingly permanent inhabitant living inside the game long before players arrive. While future adventurers dream of fame and leaderboards, he chooses a quieter path — claiming land in the mountains, learning blacksmithing, mining deep veins of ore, and slowly building a life with his hands. For a long while, the world is his alone. Then players begin to appear. To the first of them, he looks like a strange NPC with skills that shouldn't exist yet. He doesn't correct them. He would very much like to be left alone. Unfortunately, the world has other plans.

For the millions who log in every day, Warcross isn't just a game — it's a way of life. Struggling to make ends meet, teenage hacker Emika Chen works as a bounty hunter, tracking down Warcross players who bet on the game illegally. To make some quick cash, she hacks into the opening game of the international Warcross Championships — only to accidentally glitch herself into the action and become an overnight sensation. Instead of being arrested, she gets a call from the game's creator, the elusive young billionaire Hideo Tanaka: he needs a spy inside this year's tournament to uncover a security problem. Whisked off to Tokyo and thrust into a world of fame and fortune, Emika soon uncovers a sinister plot with major consequences for the entire Warcross empire.

After a lifetime of bounties and bloodshed, Viv is hanging up her sword for the last time. The battle-weary orc aims to start fresh, opening the first ever coffee shop in the city of Thune. But old and new rivals stand in the way of success — not to mention the fact that no one has the faintest idea what coffee actually is. If Viv wants to put the blade behind her and make her plans a reality, she won't be able to go it alone. But the true rewards of the uncharted path are the travelers you meet along the way, and whether drawn together by ancient magic, flaky pastry, or a freshly brewed cup, they may become partners, family, and something deeper than she ever could have dreamed.

The age of Man has come and gone. His bright and glorious works are ruins, his heritage scattered and forgotten. Vicious things now walk his empty halls and hunt his empty streets. Men are few in number and huddled far away on the last weary stretches of land that have not cast them out. For a boy like Dirt, there is no food but what he can scavenge and no shelter but what he can dig. If he wants to survive, he must find allies in even the most unlikely places — because in a world the wilds have reclaimed, there is no mercy from hungry jaws. An adventure story about friendship, courage, and the unrelenting savagery of nature, following a boy with a mysterious, forgotten past who must quickly learn to contend with the supernatural to survive.

After dying and being reborn into a world built like a video game, Jim finds himself stuck in a very old-fashioned new player zone for low-level adventurers. Unfortunately, the zone fell out of use centuries ago, and no one told the monsters to take it easy. To make matters worse, Jim is the only new player around — and he comes with a literal shoulder demon. Jim has been given an opportunity, and he'll do his best to take advantage of it.

Kaius just wanted to unlock his class — instead, he restarted the apocalypse. After years of training, Kaius has barely acquired the first two of his family's legacy skills: powerful, vanishingly rare abilities whose method of creation is a secret people would kill for. Narrowly surviving a bandit ambush, he gets trapped in the Great Depths — a world-spanning dungeon. To escape, he must slay one of the Guardians defending the exits, a feat no classless fighter has ever survived. If that weren't bad enough, succeeding will reignite a forgotten trial that nearly ended civilization.

Things were going great for the demon Bael-Sharoth until a little girl summoned him to open a jar of tomato sauce. Now he's trapped in the human world along with his arch nemesis, the beautiful and capable Maharet Flameheart. Life isn't easy for a demon in a small town — but at least the parks are hellhound-friendly and the werewolf at the local bookshop seems nice enough. Bael and Maharet must find a loving human family to take in this powerful young witch before time runs out, or risk being stuck on Earth forever.

Summoned to a fantastical world and granted powers by a broken System, most freshly minted protagonists would get ready for their stats to start climbing. But Fischer isn't like most MCs — he doesn't want to be a hero at all. Fame, fortune, power? He had enough of all that in his old life. Discovering forbidden fishing techniques and petting every cute animal in scritching distance? Now that's a good time. Unfortunately, cosmic forces rarely care for mortal feelings. Fischer is hounded by inept cults, conspiring nobles, and more magical misunderstandings than a preteen relationship. Even his dutiful pet crab is firing energy blades like an anime antagonist.

Meanwhile, people back in her own world are reading and commenting on the manga as it updates — so she must always stay in character. With death lurking at every step, Amy must claw her way into the main story by any means necessary: scene-stealing entrances, manufactured drama, a possibly fabricated tragic backstory. Whatever it takes to become a fan favorite before the end of the world arrives.

Sofia isn't too keen on finding out.
