〈Hello, Handsome Stranger!〉... more>>

Your voice is 〈A Whisper in the Night〉, your 〈Sweet Fragrance〉 a memory I am unable to forget. You are my good 〈Brother〉, my 〈Study Companion〉, my 〈Safe Haven〉, 〈Heaven‘s Gift〉 to me.

Maybe it was 〈Love at Second Sight〉 that brought us together. 〈The Next Natural Step〉 would be our 〈Two Confessions〉 and to 〈Make It Legal〉 at last. From the 〈First Time〉 we met, to our 〈Anniversary〉 or to our 〈Wedding Night〉, I want to 〈Treasure Every Day〉 with you and tell you 〈Welcome Home〉 when you return in the evening.

〈A Bowl of Rice〉 and 〈Ten Pieces of Gold〉 are the same to me as long as they‘re shared with you. I want to go through the 〈Good Times〉 and the bad times with you. I 〈Dare〉 you to 〈Fight for It〉 if we are ever about to lose hope. It‘s just like an 〈Adventure〉 that the two of us will only be able to pass together.

If you have to 〈Walk Alone〉 for a stretch of this path, then I will be 〈Waiting for You〉 at the finish line whether it‘s for 〈Five Days〉 or 〈Twenty-five Years〉, not caring if we move 〈Into a Palace〉 or live in a 〈Lonely Hut〉. I would only be 〈Brokenhearted〉 if you weren‘t with me at the end.

So please, 〈Promise Yourself to Me〉 because among all the men of this world, I am unable to choose anyone but you.

Ryan is watching a horror movie when he hears strange noises coming from the other room. He goes to investigate. Halloween Prompt #20: Snap

CHAPTER 1:... more>>

* Tired from the endless cycle of deaths, and pain, MC believes it is all his fault that every one of his friends either dies or disappears. As the direct vessel of the player, he gains knowledge beyond that of even Monika. Enough to reset the world more thoroughly than Monika ever could. But at what cost? At his own cost of course.

- "What if I never joined the club?"

MC now holds, the pain of all the Dokis on himself, no longer bound to the player, how long can he hold on before everything collapses? Is there someone out there that can save him from his reality?*

This story comes from the premise. What if MC was the one that was depressed, something that has appeared in other stories, but I felt like going a little more extreme, not sure if it has been done before. Some characters, like Sayori, may be slightly OOC, since she doesn't have depression here.

CHAPTER 2:

Yuri comes to terms with what she did to MC, what he did for her, and how she blames herself for the burden the boy forced himself to carry for her and the others, all while struggling to accept that it is too late for her.

In a world where the boundaries of anime universes have merged, a high school has emerged where characters from across the multiverse coexist. Our protagonist, Orion, has been reincarnated into this new world with the knowledge of all fiction ever created on Earth, giving him a unique perspective and understanding of the diverse cast of characters he encounters.... more>>

As Orion navigates through this fascinating new environment, he finds himself attending a high school filled with a vibrant mix of students and teachers from various anime backgrounds, creating a melting pot of personalities and abilities. The teachers at this high school are not your typical ones, with Moka Akashiya, Yoruichi Shihoin, Rangiku Matsumoto, Boa Hancock, Hatake Kakashi, Momo Yaoyorozu, and Korosensei each bringing their unique skills and quirks to the classroom.

From the intelligent and resourceful science teacher Momo Yaoyorozu to the enigmatic and playful philosophy teacher Yoruichi Shihoin, Orion's natural charm and aura make him a popular figure among the female characters.

Moka Akashiya's literature class is always full of surprises, as her two contrasting personalities can cause unexpected shifts in the classroom atmosphere. In philosophy class, Yoruichi Shihoin teaches complex subjects by relating them to cat-related analogies. Meanwhile, Rangiku Matsumoto's biology class is an experience in itself, as she unconsciously accentuates her figure and often leaves her students blushing.

Boa Hancock's theatre class brings drama and excitement to the school with her daring acts and suggestive play selections, while Hatake Kakashi's PE class is a test of the students' physical limits. The unconventional and enigmatic math teacher, Korosensei, helps students overcome their struggles with numbers using innovative and engaging methods.

As Orion's relationships with these teachers deepen, so too does his harem, creating a captivating and comical experience that keeps viewers hooked. However, the ever-present conflict between good and evil forces threatens to disrupt MC's high school life, making every day an unpredictable adventure.

In this universe, characters' ages have been altered to fit into the story better, creating a unique high school experience that fans of the harem and slice-of-life genres will love. High School Chronicles: The Otherworldly Harem is a delightful and entertaining journey through the unique world where beloved anime characters collide.
