Ruinous Return
Defying initial expectations, this isn’t a straightforward revenge story. Rather than returning as herself the protagonist instead returns to the fantasy world as the demon/dragon king after a decent timeskip… only to find that the ‘evil’ races aren’t as evil as initially thought. So, at this point at least, it ends up more a kingdom-building story. Which isn’t a bad thing.
SOUL WEAVER CHRONICLES
A non-Earth isekai featuring both cultivation and system core aspects with a protagonist that can empower and resurrect people (both necromantically and as fully resurrected thralls). Interesting so far, but could get bogged down in any number of ways.
Lost Souls and a Demoness
Despite having a succubus protagonist, there isn’t much in the way of sexual content (which I consider a positive). Instead the story focuses more on the charm/dominate and demonic rage aspects, with most of the content so far centered on combat and combat-adjacent activity… although there’s also an appreciable amount of character building.
ADVENT OF DRAGONFIRE
This story stands out for not beginning with tragedy or family trauma of some kind. The protagonist here doesn’t really have a personal goal and mostly (at the start) just wants to become powerful because her brothers are powerful. Which makes all the violence and death she ends up having to wade through during her first trial (which takes up the vast majority of the story so far and doesn’t seem anywhere near finished) all the more shocking. In a way it ends up feeling more grimdark than the above Soul Weaver one.
WAIF
A zero-to-hero story that for some reason I couldn’t get into. Something about the character interactions just felt off.
CORPO AGE
A Cyberpunk-like story with a completely unexplained System implementation and a murderhobo protagonist who’s only interested in money. Not really my kind of thing.
