Syosetsuka ni Narou Discussion Thread
 
http://syosetu.com/

"Syosetsuka ni narou" (小説家になろう) or translated as "Let's become a novelist" is a web-novel posting site. With some publishing light novel companies printed several titles, I think this site need to be recognized more. Who knows? you might find any interesting title here and then find that its adapted into other media (Hopefully). Some titles from this site that has been published: Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei, Log Horizon, Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari, Next Life, Mushoku Tensei -Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu, Re: Zero Kara Hajimaru Isekai Seikatsu, Nee-chan wa Chuunibyou!, etc etc

This thread is for discussing several other titles that doesn't have their specific thread. Feel free to discuss, suggest, introduce, or talk anything else about Syosetsuka here.

As a start, I'll introduce one title which is quite new and I really loved this one

Original Title: モンスターのご主人様
Romaji: Monster no Goshujin-sama
Alternative Title: Master of Monster

Quote:
Majima Takahiro didn't know if he is lucky or unlucky. Suddenly transported to a forest, he and the other students and teachers are soon attacked by a dragon. He is pushed back by the masses and falls down. When he was about to accept his death, one student managed to kill that dragon with one attack, and he is saved, thanks to luck. Students and Teachers start to gather and to survive in what they perceived as another world, they decided to work together and make a settlement there. They called themselves as "Colony". The colony are divided into 2 group: Exploration Group (around 300) who possessed "Cheat Ability" and Resident Group who didn't (around 700). Unluckily, Takahiro are one of the latter. One weeks had passed, and the Exploration Group decided to start an expedition with mission: to find a way out from the forest and meets with resident of that world. But unlucky tragedy happened, as soon as half of Exploration Grop depart, several members of "Exploration Group" who stays behind, start a coup d'etat and as a result, annihilated the only place they can live in. That day, the Colony is gone, a violent fight occured between 2 parties, and the "Resident Group", who didn't possessed any power to fight, are forced to run. The tragedy didn't stop, victim of the uproar started to appear between "Resident Group" and some of them started to assault the others, Takahiro are one who is attacked, by his own classmates. He falls to the ground, and by luck, didn't get killed. He then run and loiter in the forest for 3 days, before he finally found a cave in the morning to shelter himself. His body injured and fatigued from stress and hunger, his mind wounded, which started to hollow from sense of powerlessness and being betrayed, he then realized: that human being are just trash, he can never and ever believe humans. In that state, a monster approached him, a slime... closing on his hand, the slime attempted to swallow him. Finally realizing that his luck may have just run out, he squeeze out his feelings, "......Someone, please help me"

This is the story of a fantasy, of a human, and his "family", finding the light of love and trust even if the light was surrounded by the darkness of human hearts.
Another Tenshou, I wonder why this theme of "transported to another world" is so popular? I also wonder why some titles have similar setting? but I don't care about it anymore, as long as the story good, I'm in! To me, reading a story is like eating a cake (I love cake~ :meh:) as long as it's delicious, the topping doesn't really matter be it tenshou, tensei, or Isekai :smile:

Why do I like this title? Fantasy is a man romance they say, and then the theme about human hearts, and then the Heroines are just cute~~ :hyper-^v^:

My search keywords usually are: fantasy, ongoing, arranging from title with the most evaluation or arranging from title with the most unique users.

EDIT:
Spoiler for translation for easier narou page navigation:

The MC seems to be really weak from the synopsis. Being a chuu2 lover, will I enjoy this?

amatsunagi 2014-02-13 15:03
Psychological and Slice of life should be the tags of this title, protagonist power is to "communicate with certain monsters". This title is not really that chuu2 but it still has some action. Kouen like Chuu2 story with very strong protagonist right? wait a sec, there are several titles that might be your cup of tea~

Second title that I recommend to read.

Original Title: ありふれた職業で世界最強
Romaji: Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou
Alternative Title: From Common Job Class to the Strongest in the World
Author: Chuuni Suki (厨二好き)

Quote:
Among the class that was transported to another world, Nagumo Hajime is an ordinary male student who doesn't have ambition nor aspiration in life, called by his classmates as "Incompetent". The class is summoned to become heroes and save a country from destruction, students of these class are blessed with cheat specs and cool job class, but that's not the case with Hajime, his job class is a "Synergist" and his stats are very normal (mediocre). "Synergist", to put it in another word is just artisan class. Being the weakest, he then falls to the depth of the abyss when he and his classmates are exploring a dungeon. What did he find in the depth of the abyss and can he survive?
This is my most favorite title that I really liked right now (with Monster no Goshujin-sama as the second). Lots of templates, but it didn't reduce the enjoyment of reading this!

amatsunagi 2014-02-13 16:30
Third Title!


Original Title: この世界がゲームだと俺だけが知っている
Romaji: Kono Sekai ga Game dato Ore dake ga Shitteiru
Alternative Title: Only Me who know this world is a game

[New Communication Online] (AKA Nekomimi Neko Offline) is a popular virtual reality game known to be fully-loaded with bugs. Sagara Souma who is a fan of this game, is thrown inside the game thanks to a mysterious tools activated by his sulky cousin. Surprised at first, but that's the world of game he know. This is the story of Souma who uses the world bugs against it's inhabitants and gaining fame for himself.
Comedy fantasy story. The idea is unique, and it's quite funny, I laughed quite a lot when I read this.

Ougon 2014-02-13 17:00
Wait, Amacchi, create new threads for those, for they deserve it.

amatsunagi 2014-02-13 17:13

Avrorrange 2014-02-13 17:49
Traveling to another world is popular these days, isn't it?

amatsunagi 2014-02-13 17:54
It's the most popular setting to be used in Narou. I guess writing those kinds of story are easy compared to making renai stories.

Fourth Title!

Original Title: 邪悪にして悪辣なる地下帝国物語
Romaji: Jaakunishite Akuratsunaru Chika Teikoku Monogatari
Alternative Title: The Tales of Wickedly Vicious Underground Empire
Author: Haamitto (はーみっと)
Illustrator: Unknown (???)
Publisher: Alphapolis

Quote:
It's 5 years after the falls of Magic Empire.
The Holy Kingdom who leads the Union of several countries, While restraining the other powers, neglected to keep peace. The people of Holy Kingdom dreams of perpetual peace, with the wealth taken from Magic Kingdom, buying all slaves from minor powers, pillaging and indulging themselves with the territory they snatch. However...
Unknown to them, there are forces that moves behind the darkness.

These people, are memento from the dead Empire.
The prince and princess of the long gone empire, a siblings.

Harva, the princess, is a weak but lovely and energetic little girl
Alarc, the prince, is a handsome young man with beautiful kind smile.

"That day, is the unforgettable day for us right? brother!"
"Yeah"

The siblings escaped that day, the day when their loved country turns into land of nightmare, the day when the white sacred walls turn intos crimson walls of blood and fire, and the day when they lost everything. The siblings trained themselves, enduring pain, sadness, losing soul and sanity, selling their soul to the darkness and evils, and know... losing their former self, they create the foundation of what would be their last and dearest wish...

""To grant our wish (revenge)..., ---we create the, wickedly vicious Underground Empire""

....thus, start the dark tale of revenge and retribution.
Okay, you might have realized from the synopsis that this title is different from what I have introduced before, but I'll say it anyway: this title is dark, so beware. In short, this is about siblings who sold their soul for revenge: the sister became sadistic and vengeful, the brother became cold and emotionless. These siblings create a dungeon, gathering monster, killing any intruders to train the monster they gathered, capturing the useful ones to work for them, and then raise them into army to defeat the enemy and bring upon them retribution. Alphapolis is going to publish this, and set to be released february (or maybe march?), illustrator is still unknown.

Not a fan, no. Bro-cons can be funny on the side, but any more than that gets too squicky for me.

Ougon 2014-02-18 18:23
Same here, incest turns me off....

Fifth Title!

Okamura Hiiro is introverted and loves books. To him, books are his raison d'etre. His story starts with usual gimmick of Heroes summoning. Five people summoned, but one of them is just an outsider dragged in accidentally, that person is Hiiro. 4 others are his classmates, but it's not like they are friends. Unlike him, they are Riajuu's. Hiiro decided not to help the country, reason? "I don't believe you, I'm not friend with them, It's not my business, and I'm an ordinary person who cares for his life, so bye", and he set for his own journey. Little does other knows, that this ordinary person, Hiiro, actually hides a power which could change the world!
Yeah, the usual gimmick of Tenshoku. The plot is light, simple and straightforward, protagonist adventuring, learn about his power, dragged into war of races, slowly became the true hero the world need. Protagonist? Awesome, he is cool and arrogant and badass and incarnation of OP and wear glasses. Lastly, I ROFLed at the harem~

Anyway, this title is the cause of 2 days MIA~

Bro-cons arent that entertaining to me, I have this odd craving for the brother to actually get together with the sister. The only good thing about it in my eyes is the fact that you never know if it'll happen. :smile:

BW95 2014-02-18 19:45
I see. This is sounds somewhat similar to the Sendai Yuusha you introduced a while back and after reading your synopsis I can see how you'd be immersed in it for 2 whole days. Let me guess. The guy's OP powers have to do with books?

Another Tenshou, I wonder why this theme of "transported to another world" is so popular? I also wonder why some titles have similar setting? but I don't care about it anymore, as long as the story good, I'm in! To me, reading a story is like eating a cake (I love cake~ :meh:) as long as it's delicious, the topping doesn't really matter be it tenshou, tensei, or Isekai :smile:

Why do I like this title? Fantasy is a man romance they say, and then the theme about human hearts, and then the Heroines are just cute~~ :hyper-^v^:
could you give some information about the heroines in this?

Yeah. That's what I actually meant. A power related to words. Predictable and truly monstrous.

With these heroines, particularly Rose, we might hit the uncanny valley. Empathy takes a sharp drop just before something reaches being human and rises again as it get closer. How are they power-wise?

I was referring to how some of these would-be jerks rampaged and destroyed the village. Were their motivations ever explained?

So I'm guessing the protagonist in your latest rec will eventually be able to cast just by speaking instead of writing? Or carry some general Kanji on his person.

Yeah, Word Master is similar to Tate Yuusha in plot device, but that's it. Differences, in Word Master: plot is a bit lighter but does not lack plot twist, Hiiro luck is not bad like Naofumi.
