Accel World: Beyond the burst

“Haru-chan.” …Haru? HARU? The chubby kid from that poster he saw once on MyAnimeList?! Before the panic properly sets in, a notification pops into his tiny, horrified brain: [ SYSTEM ACTIVATED] Congratulations! You have been reincarnated into… accel world, a world you know absolutely nothing about! Complete tasks to receive random gifts! Random. Gifts. Not useful gifts. Not logical gifts. RANDOM gifts. [Task: Don’t cry for 30 seconds] Reward: Slightly Above Average Patience] [Task: Don’t fall when standing up] Reward: A sticker] A STICKER. Not chakra, not magic, not a Sacred Gear. A STICKER. Haru quickly realizes he has reincarnated into an anime world he only recognized because of the name He doesn’t know the plot. He doesn’t know who’s dangerous. He doesn’t even know the genre. Is this sci-fi? Is it action? Is it slice-of-life? Is he supposed to fight people? Hack computers? Lose weight? Gain weight? Make friends? Who knows? Certainly not him. But as he grows up as Haruyuki Arita, the system keeps giving him tasks that are sometimes helpful, sometimes emotional… and sometimes: [Task: Stop eating cake for one whole day] Reward: +1 Self-Control / -10 Happiness] Now trapped in a life where the biggest enemy might be his own BMI, Haru must navigate childhood, bullies, friendships, and the mysterious digital evolution happening around him, completely blind and armed only with a system that thinks giving him “slightly improved reflexes” is equivalent to granting immortality. And maybe, just maybe, he’ll discover that even if he didn’t get reincarnated into a world full of anime oppai, ninjas, or power levels, this life might still be worth living. Assuming he survives middle school. (A/N:I don’t own Accel world, all rights belong to their original creators.) Havent seen much Accel World Fics here, so i decided to create one (Disclaimer: This fanfic is set in an alternate universe based on Accel World. While it features the original characters, certain events, abilities, and background details may differ from the official light novel. These changes are intentional for the purposes of this story.) (will probably make this into a shared universe with sao or something if i felt it needing a little bit of spice)

Architect's Resonance

In Vidyashree Academy, Domains decide everything — future, opportunities, status. Aryan chooses Business & Management, the toughest path in the school. Not because he’s ready. But because he has no choice. His classmates see him as quiet. His teachers see him as promising. Only he knows the truth: He is one mistake away from collapsing. But when failure hits him on Day 1, Aryan does something no student has done before — he writes down the exact words of everyone who refused to help him. Not to complain. To understand. Every word. Every rejection. Every consequence. Because in this school — like in the world — every choice has a price. And Aryan is done paying silently. With the rise of DHARA, a VR-world reshaping global power, Aryan’s small decisions begin to ripple far beyond school walls. A grounded, intense, emotional coming-of-age story about ambition, consequence, and the cost of becoming someone who refuses to break. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.

The Greatest Game Developer

Makoto Yoshida is a novice game developer working at a major company in a world where creating games means crafting entire realities. With advanced virtual reality tools, developers shape vast and vivid worlds using only their thoughts and imagination, yet the process is both more effortless and infinitely more complex. In this era, game development is one of the most prestigious careers in society. But despite Makoto's education, passion, and potential, he's stuck creating forgettable mini-games and ad mascots, until everything changes. When his company launches a program to promote new talent, Makoto stumbles upon a genre in the selection list: Survival Horror. That single term shatters something deep within him. In a surreal burst, a flood of foreign memories pours into his mind, entire franchises, characters, plots, mechanics, and music from another world. Armed with this mysterious knowledge, Makoto enters the SeedNet system and begins his project. His brilliance shines through character design, voice direction, game balance, and realism. And as the days pass, his legend begins. Makoto would go on to become the visionary mind who redefined the Survival Horror genre, with masterpieces like Resident Evil, The Last of Us and Outlast. He was the soul behind the emotional brilliance of To The Moon, revolutionizing the RPG adventure/visual novel experience. He reimagined what storytelling meant with the noir-fantasy drama The Wolf Among Us, pushed the boundaries of cinematic action with Uncharted, touched the world with the emotional weight of Undertale, and breathed life into Pokémon, the beloved franchise that captured generations. Makoto Yoshida was not just a developer. He was the creator who made us feel again. --- @GamerSoul99 > "I still remember the first time I played Resident Evil. It wasn’t just scary, it was art. The mansion, the atmosphere... chills every time." @MoonlitDev > "To The Moon literally changed my life. The way Makoto writes about love, regret, and memory... he’s not just a dev. He’s a poet." @OutlastedMe > "How the hell did one man manage to reinvent horror and give us that brutal Outlast trilogy? He’s insane, in the best way possible." @WolfAmongFaithfuls > "The Wolf Among Us made me believe in storytelling again. Bigby’s voice, that style... the man’s a genius." @ChocoPika88 > "Makoto’s Pokémon Origins made me cry. Like, actually cry. He gave so much heart to a world I already loved." @Undertouched > "Undertale was perfect. The choices, the music, the FEELS. Makoto is the only game creator who tells stories with such passion." @DevWatch_Journal > "We witnessed history. Makoto Yoshida isn’t just a developer. He’s a generational artist. A legend."
