Hurts. Hurts. It hurts. 

Help me! I can't breathe!

Let it end. Let me die already.

PLEASE.

Getting kidnapped was certainly not on her to do list. Getting her throat slit and bleeding out while tied to a chair was definitely not a follow up task. 

Yet, it still happened, and now she's dead.

But she's not?

Reborn anew as a baby girl in a different world, she thinks that she may be able to live her life to the fullest.

Until her second birthday, when a mysterious book appears under her pillow that's written in language from her home world.

That's when she learns that she's living in the novel as cannon fodder that eventually gets killed off.

What's worse is that the plot line of the novel is absolutely horrible, and that the empire in the novel(or her home, as she should now say) is obviously doomed to fall due to the foolishness of the female lead and her equally brain dead love interests.

"This is my only chance to live happily, I can't let a senseless girl ruin it!"

A reincarnated cannon fodder resolves to take the reins and steer away from her inevitable doom.

Til Death Tears Me Apart Once Again [Discontinued] by Neverxinagain

"If I'm going to die anyway, there's no point in trying to live." A typical reincarnated into a villainess story, except the protagonist isn't your typical 'I want my happy ending protagonist', but a death seeker. XX 《'Til Death Tears Me Apart, I Will Always Love You》is a very successful otome game. As much praise and admiration the game recieves, it is also, however, notorious for being absurdly difficult. One wrong step and the player would be drowning in an ocean of death flags, for both the Heroine and the Capture Targets. Anything short of perfection wouldn't even get the player a glimpse of a happy ending for the Capture Target the player chose. Enter me; Just a simple, normal girl reincarnated into a game as dangerous as that, as the villainess no less. Destined to die no matter what, I think there's no point in me trying to fight fate. If I'm going to die regardless, might as well die sooner rather than later. But that desire for death causes more than just a few changes to the definite plot; From little ones that have no effect at all, to life changing ones that may destroy the world of Arraxus. So the God of the world makes a deal with me: They'll give me a peaceful and happy afterlife, as long as I get a happy ending for myself. "Let the game begin!" -- Discontinued.

Unfortunately, he's a side character who is scripted to have an abrupt ending. Determined to live his life he gains a sense of purpose, a feeling he hasn't had in a long time. He's not just any side character, he's the protagonist of this story! Come and watch as he lives his life and perhaps regain some of his lost emotions. ---------- As per usual, I don't own any of the pictures that are used.

She's spent her entire life in a world that was 50/50 for her...school was rough but she had companions. Her home life was great but it had its ups and downs. She was beautiful! But...she didn't feel that way. Perhaps another life could give her that? A sense of renewal, a chance to be someone better and greater than the person she originally was. "But! I'll take the latter, I could use a change. A chance to be a different me is always appreciated. After all, it's not like I'm going to be a world-renowned hero right?" ___________ What happens when you die? Do you go to a religious after-life? Do you simply float in black nothingness or do you wake up in the body of another person? Well...for 17-year old Eos Theodoric, a girl who died in a tragic car accident, she knows the answer. Waking up in the body of an animal in service to an Animal Guardian who lives in a different world known as Balerion! Get ready for this one, a fantasy life isn't what it seems!

Rei, a former samurai lieutenant is reincarnated into the body of an 8 year old, who happens to be the main villainess in a romance novel for foreign girls. A villainess destined to be executed by her fiancé the crown prince for cruelty towards the heroine of the novel. To avoid being executed she must to make allies among her enemies, get out of the heroine's way, and untangle herself from the poisonous intrigue of court the best she can in the role of a future courtier. However, the vaguely described backdrop said nothing about the conflicts building beyond the heroine's understanding, or that women weren't allowed on the battlefield. I am honestly left speechless. I am very touched and honored by all the attention, by all the sweet, beautiful and fun comments I've received over the last month, it's been truly amazing. To those who already enjoy it, I hope you will continue to do so. To those who decide to pick it up, I hope you have as much fun with it as I did!

One day as I was taking a bus home from my college as usual while playing an otome game on my phone since I was regularly one of the last few people to get off the bus an... An incident happened which lead me to an early death. If this had happened a few years ago I would have probably celebrated this. However, since the universe just hates me so much It decided to take me when I was finally free from one of my greatest chains. My "family". But that didn't even compare to what happened next... I thought that after dying I would finally be set free of this crappy world, but instead... I just got transmigrated into a worse one. As the villainess. Now I'm stuck in this damn game trying to get one of the many interests who were supposed to ruin my life as a villainess to kill me so that I could possibly return back to my original world whether it was in my original body or by reincarnation since this damn game wouldn't let me die on my own. Now the question was will I be able to somehow return back to my original world or chained to my dreadful fate as the villainess?

Warning : Gore, mass murderings, assassinations, tortures and inhumane actions. Read at your own risk. MC died in real world and when he regained his conscious, he's a spirit inside a little boy. After the long talk with the boy, he came to know that the world he got reincarnated was just an otome game that he played in past life. Knowing exact history and future, they planned together to saved kingdom and princess a.k.a female antagonist from her despair. When the boy ask why antagonist, MC answered "because I love her voice actor". As you can see from cover, I took references from that anime. I love Angelica and I make similar character like her. But this is my original story. Also.....this might be little trashy like the rest of my books. I didn't own artworks.

Life is weird, Elizabeth Wellfringer thought to herself. She had just turned 33, going to work on her birthday, when she died and found herself surrounded by inky blackness before floating in front of a blinding iridescent light. She knew who it was, she could feel it in her very soul. God spoke to her, she had a choice to enter into rest eternal or a chance at rebirth into a world at random, but to live again she would go through hard ships worst then she has ever known. Her life was unsatisfactory though, she wanted more from it. She had been plain, boring, normal. Work, home, eat, anime, read, be antisocial. That was her life for many years. She wanted to start anew. Now being reborn, her new name was Namari. She didn't know her last name and had awoken in a filthy ally way with no memory from her life there. She was filthy and wounded, not only that but there were monsters everywhere. She barely remembers that she died and was reborn to another world. Had trouble recalling much, probably because of the injuries on her head, but the monsters before her were familiar. No one could see them though and she briefly wondered if she was crazy, delusional... Welcome to the world of Jujutsu. This is an Itadori Yuji x reader x Ryomen Sukuna fanfic! This is going to be part of a series of fanfiction about a person being Isekai'd/Reborn into an anime. I have many I want to write from Naruto, to One Piece, to JJK etc. Each can be read, once created, by its self! Each book is a book where the person was reborn into that world instead.
