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.

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.

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.

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?
