    Mark of the Fool, starts akin to a chosen ones fantasy story, except our MC's chosen mark is, well, of the Fool, which is while not as bad as the Shield Hero, is kinda considered useless at best and hindering at worst, with the Fool's mark actively interfering with combat (Mark of the Champion), spellcasting (Mark of the Sage), calling upon divine miracles (Mark of the Saint), or all three (Mark of the Chosen).

    So, our MC, deciding to say NO, left the continent and the impending invasion of dungeon denizens to seek his luck elsewhere.

    The story then goes on, to show that, no, the Mark of the Fool is not exactly useless. It still denies direct combat, and interferes with casting spells, but does not deny spellcasting. And then our MC is a Wizard.

    Sporemaggedon, dead mushroom enthusiast reincarnates in a fantasy litRPG turned industrial smogpunk setting. She is blessed by the goddess of nature, whose requirement is, loyal unto death, just doesn't have to be your death, nudge, nudge, nature vs. industry, see the title, nudge.

    So far, it has been a great semi slice-of-life as the reincarnated unnamed mushroom growing MC (because naming will show that she has a blessing of the goddess, and the parents have decided to hide that), but industrial revolution troubles have come to the fore on the latest chapter.

    Only Villains Do That is... Oh, boy, it is hard to explain without spoilering a whole lot of stuff, but, here goes. An asshole hafu musician from Japan, alongside with an otaku highschooler, died trying to save someone, and, surprise! They both get isekai-ed by the Goddess. Double surprise, they are reincarnated as the Hero, and the Dark Lord.

    Guess what the asshole MC becomes?

    Alright, the new world is like, a very different fantasy world, geologically (yes, not geographically, geologically), ecologically, and culturally. The MC tries to keep himself alive, and perhaps, grow and thrive enough to upend the world's assholish society and overthrow the Goddess.

    See his struggles to stay alive and maintain his sanity.

    Master, This Poor Disciple Died Again Today is a comedic xianxia story, as per the title clearly suggest. The MC is a reincarnate, whose nature is craven and cowardly, and was taken in by a bigshot of a sect.

    This is the MC's story of trying to keep alive in among the toxic xianxia norms and culture, playing dead enough that he is developing a totally absurd self-death cultivation Dao.

    Liches Get Stitches is the tragic story of a hedge witch turned into a lich from a necromancer's failed lich ascencion ritual. Well, tragic, since the necromancer slays the witch's whole village, but hilarious because apparently the witch is kind of a misanthrope anyway that she pretty much celebrates being an undead.

    Using, or bumbling with, her newfound lichdom, the MC cuts through many problems with a battleaxe, or just by ripping out souls, as she tries to keep to her homey cottage and knitting business.

    Double Blind is set on an Earth that is facing a System hostile takeover,. The MC is kind of a jaded cynic highschooler, who is trying his best to take care of his two younger siblings and his alcoholic mother.

    As the System-made cordon goes on, society starts to crumble little by little, and the MC, with his rare class has to do his best to survive, for himself, his family, and the small circle of friends he made.

    Edge Cases starts differently, in a more established litRPG setting, with a semi-established team of main characters with rare and, well, kinda absurd and system-breaking abilities. But on the other hand, it seems like the System is actually having some kind of breakdown anyway?

    The Butcher of Gadobhra as a story, has lots of similarity setting-wise, to the original world that Momonga of Overlord comes from. Futuristic grimdark world, with giant megacorps and peons looking for release of the drudge by VR gaming.

    On the other hand, our team of main characters instead WORK in VR games, earning their credits as NPCs to facilitate great roleplay immersion for the actual players.

    Now, there is a new game, Genesis Engine, an AI-run game that the megacorps are eager to break into, while our MCs also are eager to get into the ground floor.

    Our MCs jumped into a contract to become adventure-neutered NPC Workers, but unbeknowest to the corps and the workers, the AI decided to meddle.

    See, there is a background story about AIs, AI revolution, AI prison, AI prison warden, then AI prison explosion, and then the only remaining AI makes a game, wait what? This is the story.
