I Became The Scoundrel In The Popular Dating Sim

Ares_00

B71/100
Never play a game 100 times, no matter how addicting it is. ~My Lovely Harem School Life~ is a well-known dating sim famous for its beautiful heroines and the significance of player choices that influence the endings. So why did the protagonist end up transmigrating into Yagami Reiji — the scummiest character in the game, heir to the biggest Yakuza group in the country? The trash who harassed the main cast, bullied students, and stole heroines if the player made the wrong decisions. A walking bad ending. Now trapped in a life that isn't his, surrounded by classmates who flinch at his presence and a father who expects him to inherit an empire built on blood, he must decide: can he rewrite Reiji's fate before the past drags him down with it?

AQUILA

nyctophilus

B71/100
At twenty-one, everyone manifests a symbiont — a creature invisible to all but its host that shapes their destiny. Conrada "Conrad" Dorrien harbors a dangerous secret: she alone can see everyone's symbionts. Revealing her gift could trigger a buyout of her contract, separating her from family and placing her at the mercy of ruthless corporations. As manifestation approaches, Conrada hopes to follow her father into academia. But her extraordinary connection to the symbionts means she's destined for anything but easy obscurity. A single word — Classified — and she becomes the latest acquisition of Aquila Operations, a boutique corporate consulting firm known for unorthodox methods and a reputation for always getting the job done. A low-fantasy dystopian corporate-feudalism story with grey characters, a queer-normative setting, and a slow-burn romance.

Underdog

Alexey Osadchuk

Despite being treated as a freak and outcast his entire life, Eric discovers that his affliction — the very thing that makes the System's normal paths unavailable to him — may be a hidden advantage. The story of a nulled boy's struggle to survive, and to rise.

Finding himself alone in a forest that is clearly not on Earth, he must learn to navigate this new world and the System that governs it. Armed with nothing but his trusty penknife and a Legendary Class, Nate will fend for his life — conquering dungeons, discovering runes, and being drawn into battles against enemies he didn't even know he had, all while making new friends along the way. Torn between returning to his old life and the friends he left behind, or making a new home in a world filled with magic, he will have to decide where his heart truly lies.

JPwrites

Lukas Zaun has been a thief, an assassin, a spy, an ambassador, the herald of a dragon god, and a demon lord's enforcer — and he did it all sitting on the beach, watching the waves, enjoying a cup of tea. That's the advantage of having clones. Now he wants to become an archmage and try his hand at godhood. It means starting from scratch in a new body on a new world — but that's no problem for someone who can live multiple days while others toil through one.

Underkeeper

Bernt might have graduated from the Mage Academy, but not everyone has the money or connections to launch a prestigious career as a mage. A few years later, Bernt finds himself working for City Maintenance as an Underkeeper among the other rejects of Halfbridge's magery. But hey, it's a stable job. With the help of his unlicensed, unregistered soul-devouring demonic familiar, he'll save enough to launch his career as an adventurer — just as soon as he can afford some proper gear. If only there were a faster way. Adventure, it turns out, has a habit of finding him first.

Dmitry Sheleg

B70/100

It just wasn't the same soul. Now the outsider soul inhabiting Ivan's body must navigate a world where aristocratic bloodlines with magical abilities hold all power, learn to kill demons, and survive the trials necessary to become a true master of the Morozov bloodline.

You Are Summoned

Dean Henegar

B70/100
It was supposed to be another boring day at the insurance office for Rico Kline, but powerful forces had other plans. Finding himself repeatedly summoned to other worlds as a disposable minion, Rico must face deadly foes, disarm insidious traps, become a test subject, and run errands for his various summoners. At least when each summoning ends, he is rewarded and sent back home — but being home has its own set of problems. A unique spin on isekai LitRPG: Rico is the summon, not the summoner, dragged into a variety of adventures and missions as his power grows with each return. But is any of it truly random?

Deadworld Isekai

RC Joshua

B70/100
Lots of people get isekai'd, and Matt is no exception. After a quickly resolved misunderstanding with a truck-shaped system assistant, he's sent to Gaia — the garden planet. The truck assures him it's a really good fit. It would probably be right, too, if Gaia wasn't a burned-out wasteland completely devoid of life. Matt has all the system-granted advantages of a LitRPG isekai hero — it's just that he arrived a little late for them to do anyone any good. Now he's starving, wandering a sterilized featureless wasteland that doesn't much care about his improved stats, and searching for a system-issued guardian that might not even exist.

Then he was Elsewhere: a completely different world where magic and stats were his new reality, with no support and only a marginal clue. Imprisoned Archmages, corrupt rulers, mysterious forces from beyond, and ancient dungeons all want a piece of him. He's happy to take them all on — and show everyone what happens when you mess with the Duke.

Lost In Translation

Dissonance

B70/100
If you're one to travel the roads, you may have heard of me — the Skystrider who walked with the wind, the Voiceless man of song without speech, the Tutor who taught the Lion of Summer how to fight, the Traveler who has walked all roads of the earth. I have spoken languages lost to time, sung to the earth, outwitted Demons, and danced with the Fae. My songs have been heard by lords of wind and ash, and my steps have echoed in the bellies of gargantuan beasts. People have branded me a myth. But I'm no legend. I'm just the bard stupid enough to poke the real ones with a stick.
