https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8096183/1/Harry-Potter-and-the-Natural-20 Consumed all of this, which I believe Ebiris recommended some time ago.  Sadly been on hiatus for a while.

Also read some fic called Legion (worm) that just wasn't really all that good (so not going to go grab a link).  Very sob-world focused.

https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/threads/dread-rising-of-pathfinder.21733/ This is an excellent tale of a Lich long past his time, cursed to hear puns, songs, and be a harem protagonist.

It is the best anime I have read in quite some time.

On the Wings of an Eagle is getting a rewrite.

Well crud. I was hoping for a continuance.

Same Same, Yuth.

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10080850/18/Devil-You-Know  This got an update in december.  Setting up Harry's training with McCoy.

Been reading the web novel I'm a Spider, So What?

Pretty similar concept to other stories like Re:Monster or I Reincarnated as a Slime.  It's incredibly lengthy, with 200+ chapters.

Synopsis: A classroom of high schoolers are accidentally killed in the fight between the hero and demon king of another world due to their use of dimensional magic, and the deities/administrators of that world resurrect the souls of the students and teacher as members of that world, all with their past memories.

Pretty much all of them resurrect as humans or elves. The one exception so far was the main character, Kumoko, who resurrected as a small monster spider in a high level dungeon. The story mostly follows her, with occassional side chapters involving some of the other students resurrected and how they all adjust to the new world, which has levels, skills, and evolutions.

I found it amusing for the most part because it's one of those OP resurrection fantasy stories which are occassionally fun to read, and it thankfully lacks that annoying harem aspect (although the side story's main character might be developing into one) most of those have.

Oh, someone continued the translation?  Nai wa.

I'd posted a link to it when it was being translated on Moon Bunny Cafe, but once they caught up to the writer, they stopped translating.  I'll have to go catch up on the rest.

Also, Drawing of Sailormoon updated with chapter 115.

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10225608/22/A-Demon-Among-Devils - Updated and was really really kinda predictable.

A Song of Ice and Fires That Weren't All My fault - Read all of this through.  Harry is stranded in the early story of Song of Ice and Everybody Dies, with his daughter Maggie.  Proceeds to do Connecticut Yankee making himself enormously wealthy and also destabilizing the world further.  I...have little context for some of it really, having no familiarity with the source material of the main setting...but with a character who also doesn't have any context beyond what he mostly learns on screen, it sort of works.  Also kraken fighting.

Read this which was an interesting exalted quest against the backdrop of worm... but at the same time there were points, particularly in the later parts, where it was just excessively showing that it was a quest, dozens of options showing up, often with little rationale for coherency (I get that the other exalted are a big deal vote wise, but still it became incoherent seeing the options trotted out narratively).

Mrgle.

I read some of that. My opinion is that the QM is a good author and only so-so at being a quest-runner.

https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/danmachi-percy-jackson-prytaneum.352191/ Percy Jackson in the dungeon after some bad end?  I never actually read that series, but I am familiar with Damichi... the weird harem in a dungeon setup.  A ryuugi fic that really hasn't gotten anywhere yet (Percy has met and joined Hestia.  Zeus' kid hasn't shown up, probably replaced, taking an angle of demigod power versus Harem Protagonist power which is a more interesting take on the dungeon to begin with).

https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/queen-of-blood-worm-castlevania.363842/ read the few new chapters of this.  Which is really still sort of a love letter to the newer castlevanias, not written very well.  Conflict is being framed as against scion and eden, who devoured and imprisoned the gods of the castlevania world.

Until now, I hadn't noticed that DK:A updated.

Not sure what I just read. I suspect some sort of English Lit. pun or joke.

It's a joke, but less about English Lit, and more English grammar.  It's about stacking prepositions in ways that make sense, but sound like gibberish.
