Kawasaki Satoru is the standard Japanese light novel protagonist.
A socially awkward shut-in, a gaming ace, a virgin, and someone who died young after saving a person.
Just before he dies, a new RPG option suddenly appears in the garbage game that is his life
[If you had the chance to be reborn, which creature would you like to become?]
A. A skeleton that could be knocked down by a gust of wind
B. A cannon-fodder slime
C. A weak spider
D. A severed finger with a manicure
Kawasaki looks utterly devastated. Can't I just be a normal person in my next life?
[Sure, consider it done.]
Kawasaki is overjoyed to be reborn as a human, but
Rimuru, the cute Demon Lord, Dragon-Demon Sticky Star God: "A cannon-fodder slime?"
Ainz, the Bone King, King of the Undead: "A skeleton knocked down by a gust of wind?"
Shiro, the Undying Spider Queen: "A weak spider?"
Ryomen Sukuna, King of Curses: "A severed finger with a manicure?"
Kawasaki Satoru (smiling while thinking, "What the hell"): Okay, I regret it. Can I get a do-over on life?
Fortunately, his longtime companion hasn't given up on him. She gently comforts him: "Isn't being human pretty good? At least I don't want to die together with some weird creature."

One day, the protagonists of reincarnation anime decide to hold a get-together and share their achievements.
Bone King: "So, I have a villainous organization, and every day I match wits with thin air."
Cute Demon Lord: "So, I have a kingdom of monsters, and I'm working hard to become a Demon Lord."
Spider Girl: "So, I have a grandmother, and I'm doing my best not to get killed by her."
Finger: "So, I have no idea what I'm doing, because I'm in someone else's stomach."
Kawasaki Satoru, who has accomplished nothing, looks to his left and right and thinks for a long time before finally understanding. He shyly declares:
"So, I have a super smart, beautiful wife who's immune to supernatural abilities, and I'm working hard for our happy future!"
A bunch of single guys who either lack the right equipment or have dead wives: ... I feel like we've been insulted.

Fun fact: Before being transmigrated, the Cute Demon Lord was called Mikami Satoru, the Bone King was called Suzuki Satoru, and the strongest sorcerer is called Gojo Satoru.
So, you know what that means :)

*The skeleton, slime, and spider queen jokes came from the anime comments section. They're not original, and any similarities are purely coincidental.
A silly, comedic story with no outline, written after watching the anime to come up with jokes. Third-person narration. OOC warning. CP: Dazai. If you like it, please add it to your favorites~
Theme: You only get one life. Once it's gone, it won't come again, so cherish life and don't live with regrets.
