Hey all, so I'm working on learning german. I'm looking for some german-language stories to really immerse myself. I generally read fantasy smut, but i'd be open to pretty much any, as long as it's written well!

Anyone have any suggestions?

Hey, there is a treasure trove of German books on readfy. You will need to download the apk because otherwise readfy is not available outside Germany.
Happy reading!

I recommend Mein Ka............ok that was a bad joke
coincidentally, that was on my list. I've read the english translation and wanted to read it in the classic german. Don't get me wrong, the dude was sick, but I like to read books written by psycho/sociopaths because it's like a glimpse into their minds.

but I was more or less hoping there'd be some on here that I could check on. or on WP if needed.

Thanos and Hitler are both sick.




But in fact. They are fucking idiots. Like the joker or lot of villains.

Why purge/kill innocents?
Can't they simply kill bad guys !?
Heck if they simply killed bad guys, they would be praised as heroes. Even HERALDED into monuments and into history books. And their goal would be without end and/but satisfying to do.
And thanos snapping fingers 50%, if he snapped bad guys, i am pretty sure more 50% would be erased hence doing the job he wanted without receiving so much backlash from the avengers. And probably wake-up some idiot heroes that humanity isnt THAT good. ESPECIALLY politicians/capitalists.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ps : there was a xianxia novel (the good kind and modern one, not the shitty old ones)
where MC basically transmigrated and basically received the powers(system) of the "retribution/karma" of the world. The forgotten-trope where villains when they do evil, get karma, than get retribution/back luck/thunder-strike.
And MC see that the "retribution of the world" was not working of who-knows-how-long. So eons ago, evil cultivators discovered this fact and all began to "white-wash" their evilness. So now MC see that all "righteous sects" are in fact all evil sects but keep a facade of being good ones. Wearing white, looking handsome, smiles, etc. And even created a new "job" about white-wash/inventing fake righteous stories/change identity.
But in short. THE BAD GUYS, are smart that being evil got the detriment of being spurned on. WHY NOT be evil AND being praised? TON BETTER.
Its similar to the logic i once saw in a chinese novel : [A bad guy that 24/7 evil thoughts, but never do bad actions his whole life isnt a bad guy. But a good guy that do 1 crime is evil].
Edit : oops, remembered. Its "tribulation" the word.
ps(2) :
saejima highschool of the dead from highschool-of-the-dead.fandom.com
Saeko Busujima (highschool of the dead).
Its not often mentioned but she got murderer craving/impulse. Lore : in the past, she basically baited a rapist, so she should beat/cripple him.
In apocalypse, her craving is satisfied by killing zombies. And without apocalypse, even with her murderous impulse, she probably would never kill anyone in her entire life.
ps (3) : Hitler and Thanos are also very unlucky that they are ugly. Homelander is a shitty villain-hero. But he got a whole fanbase.
Guide To The Boys Superheroes Powers And Abilities

Meanwhile Hitler got a shitty mustache. Thanos is freaking purple and striped skin like a old man, and too thicc body. Totally different if they were a blonde and a sunny smile (hitler was bullied in childhood i think i saw somewhere because no being blonde like others). Heck just now i remembered the villain in "The watchmen" movie. The cool bad guy that did "I did it 35min ago" classic scene of a villain not pointlessly monologuing for no reason. HIM too is/was popular because of being handsome.

EVEN ntr doujins are selling well because of the art. And vanilla rarely do anymore "ahegao".
Lot of young people read manhwas more because of how beautiful it looks. I was surprised few months ago, to see a comment of someone being SUPRISED of how good looking and well done it is despite MANGA being simply black-white monochrome. His comment was like seeing antique stuff, like Charlie Chaplin monochrome movies. DESPITE mangas being mainstream was just 7+ years ago.
>THE LOOKS influence people, just like a girl will fall for the beautiful hero saving her but not a fat ugly hero

Yep. Sign up on Belletristica. They have English but German language was actually their default and there are many German chats still going. It's a mix between the two for stories and groups.
