He was the founding ruler and a warlord victorious in a hundred battles. Unfortunately, in this life he had three children who gave him nothing but trouble. The eldest was said to be born under auspicious signs: clever, perceptive, kind, and upright.

   The male protagonist is a ruthless and powerful figure with both strength and intelligence. I'm drawn to him because of his familial bonds; his personality is quite charismatic. Part Two: The author's updates are inconsistent, so the later parts weren't very exciting to read. So when I reread it, I usually only read the part where the present and past lives are swapped (around chapter 77, which was initially quite cheesy, but after reading a few pages, I found the father-son relationship in the later part to be really good, and I even got hooked on it, so I specifically bookmarked this part to reread it). Third viewing: Rewatching it again has reignited my passion! Second Master, you're so charming and handsome!! Ahhh, in short, if you like Chinese succubi, come see this! A true hero, a true wise ruler! I love it so much! A blend of divinity, humanity, and chivalry; the three words "beautiful, strong, and tragic" are all pronounced; a lover of sweets, cats, dogs, and children; a contradictory figure emphasizing both personality flaws and charisma; after watching, I'd give my life to Brother Zhao!!! Seriously, men and women, young and old, both inside and outside the text, were all captivated!

2. 2 我 I Really Just Like Balls 我真的只是喜欢球而已 Gao Er Gao高二糕No CP3.0M WordsCompleted [Bonus side story in progress] I transmigrated into a world where everything in sight was made of blocks. Dad's head was a white block. Mom's head was a black block. My twin brother and I had white block heads. "His hair is the same color as his dad's," Mom said in her lovely Kansai accent. Oh... So I wasn't a block. My vision was just pixelated. Well, that's fine, then. In this world of blocks, only spheres didn't look like blocks to me. They had such smooth, beautiful, elegant curves.

   Perfect, the number one fanfiction of a personal sports anime. The scenes with various balls are integrated very well. Aku is very vividly portrayed. It can be included in both of my book lists of "characters who would fit perfectly into the original work" and "charismatic protagonists". This story is totally on my soft spot! Plus, the author has a huge amount of high-quality bonus chapters, with 30,000 words of them all free to read. I have to say, this is a real treat! Three sentences: ① If you like watching twins being close and having a sweet, harmonious friendship, come and watch! (Ps. The atmosphere on set of Blue Lock is a bit heavy, and some characters have a bit of a "more than friendship" vibe, but it doesn't feel forced or awkward; they're all just good friends who tease each other!) ②For those who love winning and enjoy championship-level performance! ③ I like watching this show without the original characters' bonds or the playful, mischievous interactions! ④ I like cute vocabulary and adorable metaphors. I want to read this so that I can have a pleasant reading experience! The following is a detailed introduction; I'll just talk about whatever comes to mind. ① If you love watching Gemini, you're in luck! Aku and Shi are the best! Aku and Shi are each other's other half, inseparable white mushrooms and dandelions! The family-themed parts are delicious, and the friendship-themed parts are just as good! Aku's personality is charismatic, and everyone in the world is Aku's ball-playing partner. Come play ball! ② Characters from different film sets will appear in various locations, for example, playing soccer with Osamu and Yu, watching a soccer match with Yukimura and Sanada, playing tennis in the Blue Prison, and playing dodgeball with basketball on the volleyball court with Aomine and Kuroko, etc. It's incredibly cute, and verbs can be paired with any type of ball, and balls can be paired with any other type of ball. This leads to situations like kicking a tennis racket, soccer, or tossing a basketball racket or volleyball. There are also situations where someone is clearly playing volleyball, but the rules are actually soccer. ③ It won't overshadow the original characters' bonds or steal their spotlight (the author does read official guidebooks!). Asu remains Rei's treasure, and Ness continues to follow Caesar (Caesar even brings Ness along to be his side); Kiyo's brilliance remains his, and that ahoge (cowlick) on his head is still adorable; the Ito-Shiki brothers will clear up their misunderstandings, Sae still cares for Rin despite her words, and Rin has finally learned of her brother's love for her. Yukimura's illness naturally progresses, but he remains the Great Demon King. Sanada will take the initiative to challenge his best teammate and the best opponent. A particularly favorite part is when Yukimura loses his grip on the tennis racket after a match and says, "You're really going to catch up with me, Genichiro." Moreover, there's no blackening of Seigaku, and the interactions between the various schools are incredibly cute. There are no bad kids among tennis lovers! With an extra spot added, Aoki and Shiratorizawa are regulars across the country, so the King has no regrets; Inarisaki remains the strongest challenger, charging upwards and having won a championship once; and Taiyo is also diligently studying volleyball. Kise is still completely captivated by Kuroko, hehe, the era of miracles still only has them; the most memorable scene is when Aomine and Kuroko argue and then encounter Akashi. After Aomine says some harsh words and leaves, Akashi looks at Kuroko in the bushes, and Kuroko says: "I just said some harsh words, and I didn't want Aomine-kun to know" (I forgot the exact words), and Akashi is so cutely amused; in the match between Aomine and Kise, Kise is exhausted and has to leave the court, and Akashi comes to his aid. After tying the score, they don't let either side score again, dragging the game out until Kise is rested, giving the time and position to the original characters for the final match. ④ See comments below

   I sincerely recommend this to everyone who loves HP! Both original characters and characters from the original work have remarkable highlights (including insignificant minor characters). Moreover, it doesn't exaggerate the good or conceal the bad. Like the fiercely debated Snake and Lion, it manages to write about the strengths and weaknesses of both sides, and then their growth. It made up for many people's regrets, and one thing I really liked was that the two brothers changed each other's fates; they saved each other. (And although they saved each other, it didn't diminish Kreacher's brilliance.) Extremely touching

4. 4 运 The Athletic Demon King Has Arrived! 运动系大魔王来了！ A Bowl of Rice, Please来碗大米饭No CP1.2M WordsCompleted Going VIP on October 23! Anti-theft set to 40%. Bonus baseball arc: 35% complete. Parallel Lives is a game produced by Millefiore, and the player is a devoted fan. The game is all about training through sports.

   Curator note

   I love Golden Retrievers, I love hot-blooded idiots. The main character is a large dog. He is completely sincere and praises his teammates and people he trusts and likes. He will say tough words to his opponents on the field, but he will also affirm their efforts off the field. When faced with bullying his "own people", he will be protective and sarcastic (sometimes he is a natural jerk when it comes to his teammates). With a 100% hit rate, the King is in his full form! Although he's a player, there's no obvious sense of cheating. The protagonist is always the first to arrive and the last to leave, someone even his substitute teammates can't bring themselves to hate. He's not upset when he loses (because it's not a one-man sport), and he's proud to be praised when he wins. He's adorable! Without a doubt, he's the soul of the team. What's great is that, because the previous playthrough (the first book in the same author's series) was from another school (Seido), he had a clear understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of his Seido teammates. The protagonist didn't want to use the happy memories of getting along with everyone in the previous playthrough, but he also wanted to win in this playthrough (□□). Knowing the weaknesses and not using them is not his style, so he chose to close off the memories (retaining some emotions) and re-analyze to find the weaknesses again. He's so handsome! (By the way, this guy has the face of a typical second male lead in a shonen manga, plus the personality of a male lead—that is, a cool and aloof guy who's actually a hot-blooded idiot.) Oh, I should mention that the author takes reader comments very seriously. They correct any errors they see, and adjust the rules if pointed out. Part Two: Almost Finished - Overall Summary Baseball > Volleyball >>>>> The Last World I didn't watch the dance at the end, but I subscribed to the whole series to support the author (I'm not feeling well). Firstly, I wasn't interested, and secondly, the female supporting character had a lot of screen time (with a love triangle plot), which made me even less interested. P. S. The author gave advance warning that the female supporting character would have a lot of screen time, and I even glanced at a few scenes when I subscribed. Third compilation: Fukuban, baseball, forum style, grand slam of championships, peak retirement, so awesome!!!

He was every midfielder's favorite striker, a raz 34.7kFavorites74.4kClicks/ch237.9kGifts

   Curator note

   I stayed up for several nights and gradually finished watching it. (I didn't subscribe to the whole thing; I skipped parts of the match, the loss to Drago, and the coach's side story. Oh, and I also skipped some of the later matches. I'll catch up on those parts when I rewatch them. I won't catch up on the parts I skipped earlier that I found offensive.) Tio, the Italian phoenix, possesses exceptional personal charm. He's the type of protagonist I really like from the book-hunting thread next door. He's a bit cheeky but lovable, and it's super cute that he'd give his trophies to people he's close to. His biggest hobby is haggling over ice cream. He has a wicked sense of humor, unique tastes, and impeccable fashion sense. He's so vividly real that he seems to exist in real life. He lacks love, is loved, and is good at sharing love. While reading this book, I was often moved by the bond between Teo and his fellow Dad Bus teammates. He plays soccer for the people he loves. He often bickers with his Dad Bus teammates, but he will also go to great lengths for them in crucial moments. He is loving but not a saint, and he is incredibly vibrant. I could really enjoy watching the early days of the chick before he grew into a phoenix; it was so lively and charming. Later on, the Italian pillar was heartbreaking; he carried a lot of pressure, but he was still that lovable kid. Tio is incredibly charming, embodying friendship and family ties, and his allure is captivating. However, if you're a fan of the main character, you definitely shouldn't watch the parts I skipped (especially his loss to Drago, which made watching the little dragon uncomfortable for me).

6. 6 我 [Western Crossover] I'm the Butler in Gotham [综英美]我在哥谭当管家 Chao Jiangjin朝江烬No CP962k WordsCompleted [The full story is complete.

   The world can't be without a butler! A quick transmigration CEO romance versus the Bat family—it all strangely matches up. While laughing out loud, you'll occasionally be struck by the butler's handsomeness; he truly loves the Bat family. The housekeeper is very reliable. (April 26, 2025) The three flavors of the balls are especially delicious! (2025.10.23) I highly recommend everyone check out the third side story of the series. Seriously, it's a completely different flavor, I even think it's more captivating than the main story (.). Go watch it! It really made me ship the round-faced chick and Bi. I love this side story so much! I can't even describe the feeling—love so subtle, hate so ethereal, leaving only emptiness, and two accomplices. It's so good, please go watch it! Third section: Rereading the first extra chapter, "Little Cat and Little Bi's Childhood Sweethearts," deeply moved me. I thought I had hardened my heart and didn't have any emotional fluctuations before starting to read it. I hadn't even read any CP (couple) stories for a long time, but this childhood sweetheart relationship was like a breeze that stirred up ripples on the lake. In short, I highly recommend the first side story! Good cats are like family to you all forever!

   A very interesting protagonist! It has a strong gamer feel to it, I love it! Okay, this is currently my favorite book in the Fourth Calamity series; the inhuman feel is so strong and I love it. I also really like the twisted emotions, and the cover is really cool. Second part: The beginning was quite good, but it's clear the author's love for Blue Lock is greater than for other ball sports. Soccer/Blue Lock segments > Basketball > Volleyball. They finally introduced volleyball, but then went back to Blue Lock. Basketball only appeared in the very beginning, and even then, the author dragged people from Basketball and Volleyball into Blue Lock. It's getting a bit boring now. Bored again, adding 1 more. Currently waiting for more chapters to be released. Third section: I was recently experiencing a reading slump and the main story had just finished, so I picked up this book again. I enjoyed reading it and found it to be a delightful read. I really liked the story of Xiao Hui's transformation and the most relatable CB plotline. The protagonist jumps back and forth between being cool and cute. It's clear the author loves Lan Suo; she's currently the most featured character and character in the story (so the second half of the story hasn't been covered yet, and the current subscription rate is around 80%). But the side stories are amazing! The star player storylines (including "Little Gray Chasing Light") are a must-read. The forum-style posts are also great, and the parallel universe/what-if storylines are very interesting. Currently enjoying the side stories. Okay, what also attracted me was the cover; it's so cool! All of the author's covers are so handsome.

   Delicious Bro, Perfect Bro, I especially love the interactions with Gemini, and Gemini's personality is great with a strong sense of incest (those who love incest will especially love this book). His interactions with other characters are rather lackluster. However, the interactions with the original characters (excluding the twins) were a bit too sadistic, making it feel a little awkward. Quick update—the Gemini phone calls have been going on for months.

    The main character is a husky-like creature, Yunzai, a cyberpunk character with a strong youthful vibe. She's strong but makes you want to pamper her; her family and friendships are especially sweet. I rewatched it again near the end, and I'm still amazed. I really love Yunzai. Yunzai is finished. Part Two: After reading the extra chapters, I reread it again. My previous reviews were too hasty. If nothing unexpected happens, this is my favorite original comic-style novel, and Yun Yan (Chu Xiuyan) is my absolute favorite protagonist in this genre. The whole book is completely on my liking. First of all, the protagonist's personality (a husky and golden retriever mix) keeps switching between destroying the house and showing off. At the same time, he makes you want to punch him, but he is also incredibly charming. His spirited and youthful vibe is practically overflowing from the screen. It's hard not to like our Yun Zai! Moreover, while focusing on the protagonist's highlights, this book also vividly portrays the supporting characters. Although there are many supporting characters, I can remember their abilities, names, and personalities, making it feel like watching a genuine shonen manga. Moreover, the world-building is complete and vast, so there's no need to worry about the settings being altered or the characters collapsing—there's none at all! One thing I really like is that the main character is the darling of the group, but it's not pretentious. Rather, the main character wins over all sorts of people (both inside and outside the story, and in and out of the comic) with his straightforward social terrorist approach. How satisfying! The film is full of family and friendship moments, so don't worry about the knives—the main character kicks them all away! Even if there were glimpses of knives, it wouldn't be too unpleasant to watch because the main character, a husky, is always there to distract you, haha. Looking forward to the second part! Third installment: [August 10, 2026] It's still great even after rewatching! I love Yunyan, Uncle, Water Monster Brother, Chu Li Brother, Dog Erji, Zai Zhe Brother, Lion Boss, and so on. Still looking forward to the spin-off and the second part!

Second reading: Even on my second read, I was still stirred up by the passion (which shows the author's writing is so moving). Eagle is an exceptionally vivid protagonist. Constantly stopping updates and limiting access to premium content will only deplete the reader's enthusiasm. He's clearly here to find love, isn't he? Third section: Yes, I rewatched it again. Kokonoe is one of the few OCs we're willing to believe exists in that world. The character development is very realistic; every step of her growth and transformation is traceable. Her interactions with friends, seniors, and juniors are also the kind of playful banter I like. Her childhood friends with Oikawa and Iwaizumi, her basketball trio with Susumu and Nijimura, and her interactions with her juniors and seniors... I can't describe him with a specific label. Popular labels like cold-faced, cute, innocent yet cunning, beautiful, strong, and tragic seem to describe him, yet they don't quite fit. I can only say that if you're willing to keep watching and watch attentively, you'll believe that he existed in some parallel universe. Sigh, rereading it, seeing the author's notes go from initially being enthusiastic and actively sharing every foreshadowing and clever idea in the title, to becoming shorter and shorter, and finally reduced to one update a month or even April with VIP chapters and silence, really makes me sad. But if the author doesn't give up, I think I'd still be willing to keep reading.
