The Only Answer Is DEATH! (唯一の答えは...DEATH!)

In the sprawling, neon-lit labyrinth of Tokyo, Yasakchiru Mahitaro's life has always been a quiet torment. At 37, trapped in the grueling grind of a supermarket known for overwork and ruthless management, his days are filled with exhaustion, ridicule, and the unshakable shadow of a childhood tragedy. Framed for a fellow student's death, ostracized, and scarred by a world that never forgave him, Mahitaro has spent decades wandering through life like a ghost, surviving but never living. One night, pushed beyond the edge of despair, he ends his life-but death is not the end. Awakening in his own past, he is given a second chance, though it comes tangled with the memories of every failure, every loss, and every death he endured. Trapped in endless loops of time, Mahitaro faces a cruel reality: no matter what he does, fate has a way of repeating itself, and the faces of those he loves-and those who torment him-return with relentless precision. Through the haze of depression and the sting of grief, Mahitaro begins to fight back. With each reset, he searches for patterns, allies, and answers, uncovering the dark figure that has haunted his loops: a mysterious red-haired student whose cruelty and cunning seem limitless. Alongside him is Barisu Vultari, a brilliant but enigmatic peer whose knowledge of time theory may be Mahitaro's only hope of breaking free. The Only Answer Is DEATH! ( 唯一の答えは死だ!) is an emotional, harrowing journey through despair, rage, and resilience. Every reset brings heartbreak, every choice carries the weight of countless lives, and every loop forces Mahitaro to confront the darkest truths about humanity-and himself. This is a story of horror, heartbreak, and the fragile sparks of hope that survive even in the most relentless cycles of time. Season - 2 - Desciption: In Tokyo's neon-lit sprawl, fourteen-year-old Mahitaro walks a world he has already bled to save. Past loops haunt him-bloodied streets, the shattered bodies of his brother Yasuke and closest friend Gekidō, the lives he could not save. Every scream, every death, is etched into his mind, yet tonight he steps again into a storm he cannot escape. A bright day at Tokyo's newest amusement park descends into nightmare. Mahitaro, Gekidō, and the now-adult Yasuke face rides meant for laughter-where steel cables snap, restraints twist into deadly snares, and hidden mechanisms lie in wait. In a world where a single misstep can mean death, Mahitaro moves with the precision of one who has survived a thousand grotesque deaths, each more horrifying than the last. From the shadows, Eruto Kaiju watches-a figure once close in a past future, now consumed by bitterness and revenge. Alongside a masked, enigmatic old gran gran, he orchestrates carnage with cruel intent. Blood spills, screams echo through neon light, and Mahitaro teeters on the edge of despair, tested to the limits of sanity and resolve. As loops press relentlessly, each death more grotesque than the last, Mahitaro faces a chilling truth: he cannot save everyone. Yet in the darkness, amid suffering and terror, a fragile spark remains-a burning resolve to protect the family he loves so dearly once more. Every heartbeat, every step, becomes a battle against fate itself, in a tale of relentless horror, shattered innocence, and the haunting question: how much can a person endure before the world finally breaks them?

The Crowned Greed: Transmigrated into a Demonic Dragon

"Is this death?" Food. Water. A blanket. A roof. For a crippled, homeless boy like Dante, that was all he ever wanted. But until his last breath, he couldn't live the happy life he dreamed of. When he finally accepted death, he opened his eyes only to find himself in a supernatural world. A world where logic doesn't make sense and where magic isn't fairytales. And his body? It's the body of a real demonic dragon rather than his old one. Before he could understand what was happening, a spinning axe buried itself into his skull… yet he stayed conscious. Feeling that sharp, immense pain, Dante realized—he was being hunted. Hell had just begun. But whether it was his or his enemies'… no one could tell. ¢¢¢ Note: The MC starts as a naive 16-year-old boy. His choices at the start of the story will be realistic for his age and experience, so don't expect a ruthless, cunning, cold, dark main character when he's only 16. He'll grow gradually, his morals will change, and his mindset will adapt to the dark world... and remember that the novel has tragedy tag. Regarding the MC's morality: he'll keep changing. I can only promise that by the end of the story, he won't be a dark villain. Regarding r18: It's mainly for the gore and dark theme (medieval settings with no religions, I want to take my freedom in writing this). If you're here for smut, then you can leave. anything like smut will be described in a suggestive way or only mentioned quickly without description (and that's only if it's necessary, I hate smut and I won't fill the story with fanservice) Regarding romance: Slow romance (and a bit late), No Smut, Single FL, No Ntr, No Yuri, No Yaoi, No Useless FL, probably no Tsundere (Idk how to write a good tsundere fl).
