The Names... RIYURA SHIKO! - 名前は…リユラ・シコ!

The Names... RIYURA SHIKO! - 名前は…リユラ・シコ!

Some people perform joy so completely that nobody notices they’re drowning until the water is already over their head—and Riyura Shiko has turned that performance into an art form. Fifteen years old, purple-haired, red bow-tied, and explosively cheerful in the specific way of someone who learned early that being cheerful was safer than being honest, Riyura arrives at Jeremy High not as a normal transfer student—but as a walking thunderclap in a school uniform. Officially, he’s there for a “fresh start” after an incident involving pudding, a ferret, and one tragically heroic trampoline. Unofficially, he’s there because wherever Riyura goes, normality quietly packs its bags and leaves. Jeremy High is no ordinary school. Founded in 1876 under impossible circumstances—three suicidal teenagers, letters from a descendant who wouldn’t exist for a century, and a foundation built as much on suffering as it is on survival—it attracts the broken, the chaotic, and the unexplainable. Riyura fits in immediately… and completely disrupts everything anyway. From shouting greetings at trees to challenging athletes to dribble pineapples, from staging lunchtime operas about dumplings to turning every hallway into a stage, he floods the school with a kind of absurd, relentless energy that feels almost supernatural on its own. But beneath the chaos is something quieter. Something fragile. Because Riyura isn’t just trying to be seen—he’s trying not to disappear. Over the next four years, what unfolds is everything. Not just the ridiculous, high-energy nonsense of flying fruit and social disasters, but corruption networks, government conspiracies, psychic abilities tied to Edo-period bloodlines, time manipulation, preserved souls, and a brother who dies… and comes back? Government agents become allies. Truths unravel. The very sanctuary that saved them reveals the cost of its existence. And still—beneath all of that—the people matter most. Yakamira, sharp and analytical, alive against all odds. Miyaka, opening her pencil case every morning as an act of quiet defiance. Subarashī, scars catching the light as he declares himself to the world. Jisatsu, holding steady, fourteen months without a crisis. Pan, baking at 4 AM not because he has to—but because he chooses to. None of them are whole. All of them are trying. And together, they form something stubborn and unbreakable: a family built not from perfection, but from the refusal to let each other drown alone. Then comes graduation. Osaka. Cherry University. Cherry blossom seasons that feel too soft for everything they’ve survived. And the slow, difficult realization that surviving and living are entirely different skills. And many more characters in the main stage at that as per-usual. Riyura Shiko isn’t just the loudest person in the room. He’s the one most afraid of silence. His absurdity isn’t there to make you laugh—it’s there to overwhelm you, to push past the limits of what “normal” even means, to prove that being alive isn’t about fitting in, but about refusing to disappear. The humor isn’t clean, or even traditionally funny—it’s chaotic, excessive, and sometimes deliberately irritating. Because this story doesn’t aim to be funny. It aims to feel. Loudly. Uncomfortably. Honestly. This is the complete story of Riyura Shiko. From a teenager hiding behind a crooked bow tie and a perfectly rehearsed smile… to someone who slowly, painfully learns what genuine laughter actually feels like. From impossible walls to open skies. It costs something. It leaves something behind. Neither cancels the other out. THE NAMES… RIYURA SHIKO! - RATED MA26+. Still here. That’s always been enough. Because this series has the worst humor you could ever wish for. >;)

The Crescent Lake Cycle: Names That Return

The Crescent Lake Cycle: Names That Return

Five boys grew up with nothing. No family. No history. No names. They were orphans — strangers to each other at first, then brothers in every way that mattered. When a kind volunteer gave them names and a brass locket with a faded photograph inside, they finally felt like they belonged somewhere. To each other, if nothing else. But the locket had a history older than any of them knew. And the names they were given were not new. They had been used before. Twenty years later the five men reunite and travel to Crescent House — an abandoned stone manor beside a dark lake three kilometers south of the town where they grew up. A place they have been drawn toward their entire lives without understanding why. A place the town has feared for generations. A place where a family disappeared in 1962 and was never found, leaving behind nothing but an empty dinner table and a brass locket. One night in that house will cost them everything. Something ancient lives in the lake beneath Crescent House. It does not hate them. It does not wish them harm the way a person wishes harm. It simply needs them. It has been preparing for them for twenty years, since before they had names, since before they had each other. It knows their fears and their loves and the exact shape of what each of them cannot bear to lose. And it has been very, very patient. By the time dawn comes, one of them will be gone. The ones who survive will carry what happened in that house for the rest of their lives — in their sleep, in their silence, in the specific way broken people learn to keep walking. But the story does not end with them. Because somewhere in Nainpur, in the same orphanage where five nameless boys once grew up, five new boys have arrived. No family. No history. No names. The cycle is turning again. *Some stories do not end. They return.*

Nexus of Names

Nexus of Names

In a world where names are the threads of fate—woven into the very fabric of existence—Elias Voss was born to unravel them. A linguistic prodigy exiled from the opulent halls of the Lexicon Empire for daring to question its tyrannical grip, Elias uncovers the Nexus Quill: an ancient stylus that rewrites the ontological ledger of reality. With a single stroke, he can rename a foe as "The Doomed," forcing their empire to crumble from within, or dub an ally "Eternal Vanguard," forging unbreakable loyalty from doubt. What begins as a whisper of vengeance—for the purge that claimed his family—ignites a shadow war across gilded citadels and whispered alleys. Elias, sharp as a scalpel and ruthless as the void, pens his rebellion: a guard becomes "The Traitor's Whisper," spilling secrets that topple a viceroy; a general is rechristened "Hollow Command," leading armies to phantom defeats. But every inscription exacts a toll—the ink seeps into his own name, eroding memories, blurring his humanity into echoes of forgotten syllables. Hunted by the Empire's etymological inquisitors, who decode his wordplay like cryptographers unraveling a god's cipher, Elias dances on the knife's edge of genius and madness. Alliances fracture under renamed betrayals, lovers become unwitting pawns in verses of deceit, and the final stroke looms: rewrite the Emperor's title, or unmake the world itself. Nexus of Names is a cerebral symphony of intrigue and power, where words are weapons, identities are illusions, and one man's lexicon could shatter thrones—or his soul. For everyone who craves a Death Note-style webnovel packed with pulse-pounding cat-and-mouse intellect, dive into this tale of an intelligent MC who rewrites fate with every calculated flourish. If you're hooked on Code Geass-inspired revenge stories that topple corrupt regimes through sheer cunning, this is your next obsession. Explore name-based superpowers in a fantasy realm where linguistics bends reality, or lose yourself in psychological intrigue as an empire falls stroke by treacherous stroke—your mind will never name it the same again.
