    Dimension Wave: Vol1 - VR MMO RPG isekai where MC instead of going and fighting monsters like a normal person would. They go fishing. There is a gender bender theme but MC isn’t angry or at least annoyed at his sisters for pulling a prank on him but also he isn’t embracing his new avatar like I would expect. I enjoyed it nontheless.

    I became cute one in the troubleshooter sqad - Web Novel 22 chapters Really nice worldbuilding with guns and magic in cyberpunk setting. The MC isn’t really a focus here but it was allright read.

    I am also trying to branch out from LNs a bit with a bunch of manga and western Sci-fi. So I piked up Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir not as good as The Martian but still good

      I piked up Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

      Oh, I love Project Hail Mary. I’d say it’s right up there with the Martian for me. If Martian is a 9 out of 10, then PHM is 8 or 8.5 out of ten. I think there’s a movie releasing in 2026 or something.

      If you want some more Western Sci-Fi recommendations, I’d recommending Old Man’s War or Redshirts by John Scalzi. OMW has a more serious tone and is the first in a saga (but stands on its own) whereas Redshirts is a parody on Star Trek. Just depends on what you’re in the mood for.
