Description
Waking up in a new world with a odd Gaming power? Not the worst thing... Waking up in a world of hungy ghosts, genocidal reapers, and things not quite covered in manga?
Well, that was a little harder to adapt to.
Story is OC inserted into pre-canon Bleach. This story will be a massive derail from normal Bleach. Expect random ideas, extremly slow start up, and more focus on characters and trying to be a better person.
I don't own Bleach. The who does is Tite Kubo, please support the offical Manga/Anime.

- XaldrecaRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Fantastic story in every way. If you've read any story be Stew before, such as "There is no Epic Loot here, Only Puns", then you will love this. Really, the only complaint someone could have is that the pacing is slow, but that's more of a feature of how he writes and how he focuses more on characters rather than an actual flaw.
- Lord WasdRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0If you like game elements or the anime Bleach, then this is for you.
Another great novel by The Stewart - EvrinRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Hilarious.
Fun.
Sarcastic.
What's not to love?
Admitedly, having a passing knowledge of the Bleach anime/comic world helps, but thus far (chapter 17) the influence on the story is small to negligable.
Seriously though, give it a try.
In the mean time, I need to find a doctor. Pretty sure I just bust a gut laughing. - Major_general_troyRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Most unique gamer book I've read so far with awesome characters and quirks. I wish for the first few chapters to be revisited and fixed up a bit but other than that I love the story and hope it continues. I'm coming from'there is no epic loot here only puns' so far am satisfied thank you for the read
- Mobilegames 52Royal Road★★★★★ 5.0I want more 😭 and I have to make this thing 50 characters long for no reason. Anyway I hope that he doesn’t get too many transformations and then he can’t use them
- nekolordRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Its wonderful. Really good! But for some reason i saw this thing had over 200 chapters( probably pages) and was ready to read all night long. When i reached the end my brain stalled and i cried. (on the inside) edit: just got the patron, now madly cackling. Love this book
- Sam SladeRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0This story is amazing! The system is creative and unique, the main character is both likable and relatable, and the story fits in perfectly with both precannon and postcannon bleach! This maybe my favorite novle that stewart92 has ever written!
- toddRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5The premise of the story is that post-death, the MC Russ is tossed into a pseudo-reality run by a snarky system and anchored around the pre-canon Bleach timeline. The story starts off slow, with the MC primarily trying to figure out what they should be doing, as well as trying to figure out how to avoid the collateral damage that is going to spill out of oncoming Bleach events. Despite the setting, it isn't mandatory to have a strong grounding in Bleach, since the majority of what you need to know is introduced as the story progresses. This makes for a surprisingly free-standing piece, in that references are made and ties are slowly pulled closer to canon events, but the story isn't reliant on the setting for more than the world-building. Overall, it's a fairly independently standing story within a pre-existing fictional universe.
The writing itself holds to the characteristic wit and underlying optimism that you would expect from the author behind No Epic Loot Here, Only Puns although I will say that the quality isn't quite at the same level. Spelling and grammar errors are fairly common, to the point where they distract from the story. That said, I found it entertaining enough that it didn't bother me overmuch. Regarding the protagonist, their growth and reactions to the things that they see are very well done. It's slow, stable, and done with a healthy dose of self-preservation. Unlike many isekai stories where the author bends the world around the character, this is very much a case of the character doing their best to scramble through the world and figure out how they're going to stay alive and out of trouble.
Overall, I think this is worth recommending. A solid edit would improve the readability, but as it is, the story makes for a worthwhile read that steadily improves as each chapter goes by. At 25 chapters, there isn't a ton of material at the moment, but I would say give it fifteen chapters to see if it grows on you before deciding whether to continue or m - ReneeWolfRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0What says on the tin. So far every chapter has had a couple issues but nothing story breaking. I like how the system jokes. And it even provides little learning moments that some stories skip over (the eating of cheese) and miscomunication that doesn't cause me to want to forehead slap.
- Lypros MelfdanRoyal Road★★ 2.0"The system reward effort."
*throw a rock*
"magic skill earned"
*want to cast a magic spell like a chuunibyo*
"magic spell and magic affinity earned"
I'm pretty sure everyone can see the problem here, there is brainless training that does work.
If you managed to read the whole first chapter you find that the explanation for why is "You are here, and so be here".
We are told how a dungeon costs too much energy to be created and so a hospital with probably less than 100 normal people dying in it creates a dungeon, I don't even want to think about a supernatural war.
I thought you couldn't mess up the world-building in fanfiction but here it is.
I don't know how long the author takes to think about his chapter while writing it but he should take more, nothing makes sense here.
Still fun to read, but nothing more to expect from this.
(Why is the mc complaining about his energy regen ??? he doesn't need to do something to regen his energy, he doesn't need to be smart about using it because it takes 5 minutes to regen all of it, whereas in other stories it takes hours, even days for some, really feels like a rich complaining about lack of money.)
last detail, stop making HP in stories, it breaks immersion and a lot of things, it's used in video games because pain doesn't exist, when there is pain Hp is pointless. Hate on the guy who thinks about it, even tho he probably did it better than all the people who were inspired by him.
