If you could step into the world of any LN, which would it be and why?

Here are the top ones based on the LNs I have read.


1 - Making Magic

Pros:

  1. Before and After Chise is reincarnated the world is mostly at peace. There are monsters and criminal gangs but they are not as common as in other worlds.
  2. When Chise is reincarnated she is given creation magic as a gift from the gods and is able to gain skills.
  3. Commoners seem to be treated fairly ok and are not abused.
  4. It seems to be fairly easy to generate money so living should not be too hard.

Cons:

  1. I can’t think of any major Cons

2 - In the land of Leadale

Pros:

  1. Before and After Cayna the is reincarnated the world is mostly at peace. There are monsters and criminal gangs but they are not as common as in other worlds.
  2. There are other players who may be able to relate / help
  3. Commoners seem to be treated fairly ok and are not abused.
  4. It seems to be fairly easy to generate money so living should not be too hard.

Cons:

  1. If you didn’t have skills in the game you don’t have them after reincarnating
  2. You are unable to gain any new skills
  3. Opusketten-Shultheimer exists in the world

3 - Log Horizon (Based on Anime, I haven’t read the LN)

Pros:

  1. You are not alone - There are lots of other people with you
  2. It looks like you can still level up but things have changed compared to the game
  3. The world is changing - It is evolving with the flavour text becoming real and people becoming the Avatar, this opens the possibility for positive paths
  4. There are a lot of smart people working on solutions
  5. You respawn if you die

Cons:

  1. You respawn if you die - There is no escape
  2. You lose memories if you die
  3. There are Factions, hostages, unknown variables

Making magic was one that I thought about as well. I would like to live on the flying island as a dragonkin or angelkin (forgot their correct name) but I would be pissed if I reincarnate as a peasant in some random kingdom.

Statistically speaking a peasant in a random kingdom is the most likely option. So I am aiming for a world where peasants aren’t abused, or at least not abused as much.

What about the riskiest worlds?


1 - So I’m a Spider so What?

  1. The protagonists were reincarnated as the being that most suited their soul. There is a real possibility I could be reincarnated as a slug or worm
  2. The world is ruthless. The MC was reincarnated as a spider in a dungeon about to get eaten by their mother

2 - Ascendance of a Bookworm

  1. If you are born with the devouring and not a Nobel there is a high chance you will die.
  2. If you are not a Nobel and upset one you could be killed.

3 - Death March to another world rhapsody

  1. There are lots of stong monsters
  2. Demons seem to pop up regularly

So I’m a Spider so What?

Chances are you'd get eaten by your spider mom seconds after hatching.
