Game of Monsters by Adrian King1 reviews
He was a relatively normal guy, he really was. So, why was it that after his death, unfortunate thing that it was, he woke up once more. And he did so in a similar but also very different world from his own and with a very strange Gamer System… But he had a second chance at life, so that was ok. What wasn't ok was that he had no idea what world he was in. That could be a problem.

Go Away I'm Watching Porn by Third Fang reviews
Issei Hyoudou is the Sekiryutei. Not many people knew how powerful he is, or what he's done. And he's perfectly fine with that. He's done with people. All he wants to do is sit back, relax, and watch porn without being bothered by school or homework or devils or fallen angels or annoying conspiracies and why the hell won't they just leave him alone already! Perv OP Issei Harem.

Dungeons and Devils by flameclawsxx reviews
So Reincarnation's a thing, right? That's good to know. what's more I've got a special cheat that makes me basically a D&D character... and just take a guess at who was a big D&D nerd in his past life! having my race changed to 'Devil' wasn't part of the plan, however. ironic. a devil with the powers of something that was said to be satanic in a past life.

Reborn in Flames by The Goal of All Life reviews
I hadn't been overly special in my first life. When I'd died, I'd expected nothingness - oblivion.
