"He who fights with harem tropes should see to it that he himself does not become a harem protagonist. And if you gaze for long into a narrative, the narrative gazes also into you." ~ Friedrich Nietzsche (...probably?)... more>>

How would you react if one day you found yourself in an environment running on tropes and clichés?

For allegedly average high-schooler Leonard Dunning, this rhetorical question became uncomfortably real on the day he woke up on a strangely pristine island in the middle of the Atlantic, without any memories, surrounded by classmates who are barely more than characterless placeholders, and with a classic indecisive harem protagonist and his impossibly beautiful love interests for friends.

That would be hard to deal with already, yet his investigation into the tropes governing the world, trying to avoid harem shenanigans, and his odd blend of outside-context knowledge, unique abilities, and a penchant for causing trouble wherever he goes ends up dragging him into the center of the action anyway.

From their secret headquarters in an ancient temple, they send out armies of criminals and monsters to wreak havoc.

They're ruthless, cunning, and closer to world domination than ever before.... more>>

But the Chosen Ones have a big problem... they squabble and fight among themselves constantly! Leaderless and disorganized, the Elders languish in their temple like five-year-olds snatching toys from one other.

In desperation, the aging Elders have brought in an efficiency expert to organize their operations and help them get back on track. Her name is Miss Planner.

A mysterious girl with blonde hair that flows like a waterfall, perfect skin, and an incredible intellect, Miss Planner is a young lady of many talents with a plan for everything. She's organized, hard-working, and beautiful, and she knows exactly what to do to make the Chosen Ones the most efficient criminal organization in history. With Miss Planner's help, they'll stomp out all resistance in their path to world domination and usher in a new era of evil!

Riko is an ordinary girl in an extraordinary world. Among the human population it has been discovered that there are individuals with psychic powers, a vast and dazzling array of abilities, of which Riko has absolutely none. That's right, she's just a girl. No, she can't even nullify psychic abilities, they work 100% as well on her as they do on any other normal person.

How is she special, then? Well, she dreams big. She knows what she wants. What she wants is Aimi, her classmate, who is every bit the powerful esper that Riko is not. Of course, Aimi would rather not give Riko the time of day if she could help it, but that's not stopping Riko. Riko's determination is too strong to let a little ambivalence bordering on outright dislike stop her. Besides, they're both in the parapsychology club, so they're going to be seeing a lot of each other.

Plus, maybe she really does have a special ability. <<less

Cibele always wanted to be a heroine, and always wanted to be loved. No one ever told her you should be careful what you wish for.... more>>

After a chance encounter with a speeding truck, Cibele Epeli Imanis wasn’t whisked away to another world – that would be too easy. Her future self has given her miraculous powers, all to save the world from the so-called Queen…and yet, all she can think about is using these brainwashing powers on girls!

In the twilight of the Reiwa era, as humanity awaits the end of the world…can Cibele resist temptation? Can she save the world? Will she have to resist her powers and fight against the insistence of her future self…or is it possible to find love, or even become a ‘hypnotic heroine’, beneath a Southern Sun?

A tale of ethical dilemmas, late capitalism, freedom and justice, temptation, bad thoughts, nerdiness, hypnokink, and – of course – cute girls.

Welcome dear friends, to the Virtual Reality Full Immersion System called Bookworld Online!
