Kari never wanted her powers. When she was surrounded and faced with the gnashing jaws of horrifying monsters, a voice offered her a chance to save herself and her best friend Makina. Once she slipped on the gem-studded ring dropped before her, the Apocalypse System activated, transforming her into and granting all the powers of a magical girl. Her outfit, however, looked nothing like the cute ones others wear. Her robes appeared as though stained with blood and her skills were all brutalizing attacks.

She didn't want this at all, but the system left her with a cryptic message that couldn't be ignored...

Apocalypse is coming, Kari Tachibana.

A new take on a by-now-classic formula. ... more>>

Jonathan Rosewood, along with newfound friends Simon and Sarah, ends up in a school for the magically gifted, meeting all kinds of magical people and creatures.
Some of them can turn into animals, and some can perform incredible feats of magic — as long as they have a familiar by their side — and they're all being trained to defend the worlds from evil spirits that break through from the other side.

But not everything is as it seems, the gang realizes, as a world built on secrets is slowly revealed to them. <<less

Financial analyst Martin Warner managed to royally piss off the Bryce family - not a good move, considering that they turned out to be one... more>> of the most influential families of warlocks in the world. Transformed, renamed 'Natalie', and sent to a sinister and mysterious girls' boarding school, Natalie is determined to escape and somehow return to her old life. However, Natalie soon discovers that she just might have the once-in-a-generation magical talent to turn the world of witchcraft on its head. <<less

When Hunter and his friends come to school one day, they find out that a magical contest has pitted him and 49 others against each other. What the winner gets, they don't know yet, but the losers?
Those get turned into girls. ... more>>

What follows is an arms race of hare-brained schemes where the boys try to avoid being turned into girls at any cost - and maybe avoid falling for each other as well. <<less

This is the tale of an epic battle between the embryo of a hero and the egg of a demon lord.... more>>

Okay, so perhaps 'epic' is overselling it a bit, given that there are serious mobility issues on both sides of the conflict, but they're trying their best, bless them.

Then perhaps it is the tale of a reincarnated magical girl lover, excited about finally living out her dreams of slaying evil with the powers of love and friendship?

But again, the way a truck-wielding goddess interpreted her request to return her memories immediately after reincarnation rather too literally means that it'll be a long time before the frilly dress fits, and the demons don't seem to want to wait.

Then it's the tale of a pair of new parents growing progressively more confused at the weird happenings around them, particularly when people start receiving involuntary flower-based makeovers? Of an unborn hero speedrunning the plot so efficiently that it'll all be over before she even gets around to being born?

Yes, that one's more accurate.

Also, some numbers go up, with accompanying dings. And one (highly important) number goes way down.

This story was born as a complete joke on discord, out of someone complaining about womb arcs and how utterly ridiculous they were. I responded by threatening to write a story that was entirely womb arc. And then, because I'm a bit silly sometimes, I did. It's not pure skill grinding, though; I was nice enough to let her have some interaction with the real world. Nevertheless, at time of writing, I seem to be averaging two dings per chapter.

While this has the sexual content tag, this applies only to the very last chapter, titled 'The obligitory NSFW chapter'. The rest of the book is clean. (Or, well, as clean as a book about a magical girl-obsessed foetus can be...)

When Natalie Bryce finally graduated from the St. Circe's school for witches, she swore revenge against Rowan Bryce, the man who'd transformed her body and... more>> forcibly enrolled her there.

Will Natalie be able to get her revenge before the Gangling Men abduct her and her friends? Join Natalie in Consequences of Magic, a tale of friendship, witchcraft, romance, kinky sex, and, yes, revenge.

The Angelic Saints are the only force protecting the hearts of innocents from the evil Abyssal Forest and its monstrous Beasts. Juggling their responsibilities as magical girls with high school and their other friendships, the Saints will never give up their struggle against the forces of Sin and darkness!... more>>

But Charlie isn't one of them. He has no magic, no powers and no hidden wells of inner strength he can use to always triumph over the villains. He is not beautiful or strong or brave, no matter how much he wishes he could be. Instead, he finds himself held hostage by what feels like every other monster of the week.

Charlie would give almost anything to stand with the Saints. And yet, when he finally gets an offer to step onto the stage and claim everything he's ever wanted, Charlie finds that the price may be too high. <<less

Or: "Help! I'm an Incompetent Magical Girl, I Messed Up a Ritual, and Now My Familiar Owns Me?!"... more>>

Emma Hawthorn is having a rough life. She's clinically depressed, doesn't have any friends, hates her job, doesn't get along with her co-workers, is constantly broke, and she's easily the worst Magical Girl on the West Coast. But, being Chosen to save humanity doesn't come with a retirement plan, so she keeps up the good fight to protect San Francisco from extradimensional giant monsters.

Abandoned and out of options in her latest battle, Emma is forced to make an unconventional decision with potentially disastrous consequences. On the downside, yup, it was a terrible decision. On the plus side, she has a new roommate.

One with... a strong personality.

And opinions about wearing clothes.

And speaking without permission.

And who, in fact, owns who? <<less

"No, not that. Not teenagers!"... more>>

What would you do if you were blessed with Godlike powers? Would you play Hero, become a Despot, or maybe a quick trip to the moon to see the stars in all their heavenly glory. As for Juniper... She'd rather hide under her bed?... more>>

****
Core Pacifica is cursed city at least by modern standards, Super powered individuals rule the streets.

Juniper is trying to get by. Debt is compounding, and she's a jobless NEET, her sibling's health and well-being is at risk, and her own future is unclear. Video games and scrolling are her only remaining comforts. She dreads the outside world, yet needs compel her to leave the apartment. A simple grocery run wouldn't be fatal would it? Perhaps a wrong turn is all it took, to turn life upside down.

What kind of story is this: A tale about capes, superpowers, and surviving in a world where heroes aren’t necessarily paragons of justice. It follows a young woman thrown into chaos, forced to adapt to the impossible and confronted by moral dilemmas. Whilst she struggles to carve out a way forward for her future, her actions may lead to accidental villainy—or flawed heroism—in a city that doesn't play by it's own rules, one thing is certain she can't go back to the life she had before.

(18+ Only) Edward had hoped that college would be a new beginning, an opportunity to grow into the man that his parents expected him to become. What starts out as an attempt to join a fraternity quickly becomes a chance encounter with a magical girl.

In a version of Earth under constant threat from invading demons of the dark dimension, magical girls empowered by the light dimension have spent centuries fighting back against the scourge. Despite their early losses, modern technology means that encroaching demons are detected the moment they dare poke their tentacles out into the world, and careful logistics ensures the demons are disposed of within minutes, long before they can do significant damage.... more>>

That is generally considered a good thing. However, there's a black lining to every clear sky, and perhaps one could claim that those under the magical girls' protection no longer have the respect they once had. Treated more like celebrities or idols than soldiers of war, the protection they offer is taken for granted. Demons are no longer perceived as a threat. Some people have even begun to view them with desire.

For Wendy, a chance encounter with a demon is literally a dream come true. However, the dream has always ended shortly after her 'rescue'. Reality isn't quite so convenient, especially when it turns out the demons are engaged in subterfuge of their own.

This is a shortish story (~40k words) about a normal girl getting more than she bargained for after a run-in with a demon, spreading the taint to her housemates, then doing her best to undo the damage. While many chapters have NSFW content, there are no highly detailed sex scenes.
