Synopsis

-WSA 2025 Entry- Action/Comedy



At the end of the world, he gave his life to save a friend, only to be reborn as an orphan with 'Crab Affinity'.



The apocalypse has come and gone, claiming humanity with it. All humans have had their 'Souls' stolen and claimed by monsters - vampires, demons, zombies - you name it.



Reborn as Barnacles (Barns for short), the once-legendary hero claws his way back to strength under the tutelage of the gluttonous King Crab, a sentient crustacean with more vice than virtue in his shell.



Follow Barns' journey as he rediscovers his power of rebirth, which when combined with a little 'crab magic' has the power to reset humans back to their original selves.



It's time to take a crack at resetting the apocalypse.



Updated daily.



Reincarnation, Isekai, Kingdom-Building elements. No outright smut (but we have fun here).

I'm really enjoying this story, it's got comedy in it, and sultry teasing between some of the characters, with really great choreographed action scenes. I have snorted at a lot of silly things written here, and also been on edge waiting for what happens next on the action side of things. The story is full of interesting characters like a very lovable giant crab that says so much with such little vocabulary. The hero, which the crab steals the show, but he's awesome too with his quips and banter between everyone including his great friendship with his crab. There are other really fun characters but I don't want to spoil it, but their relationship is something else! The writer does an amazing job updating daily and sometimes you even get 2 or 3 chapters that day which are great reads. Give it a try!

A simple premise: world ended, how to fix it? Yet even with a simple idea, one can find a lot of heart in a story like this. The story has a good amount of world building to kick off the plot without raising too many questions. And even when questions come up, it feels like they’re addressed swiftly while still making it feel like there’s more to discover later on. Writing is polished and clean, a welcome surprise given how often the story is updated (sometimes multiples chapters a day!). I can’t get enough of the character interactions. They’re fun, heartfelt, and even at their silliest moments, it feels like most interactions carry tidbits of hidden meaning if one wants to ponder further upon the themes and messages behind lines. Or you can take it at face value and also enjoy simplicity. There’s something for everyone. Highly recommend giving this story a try. Hoping to see more people become crab enjoyers.

I am really enjoying this story so far. its_alan appears to pump out updates much faster than I can read them because I read pretty slow if I'm honest. There is a really interesting way the story is written where the dialogue of the characters feels more natural than many other stories I have read. They have a certain bond between them whether it is a heated exhange, or a loving exchange. There is a voice and accent even to a lot of these characters that I can hear in my head. The world even though it is an apocalyptic scene sounds like a paradise in the works with beaches and housing at the click of a button with a special system in place that is explained early on. More gets explained through each chapter. The crab Clancy is a very fun character premise and he seems adored by commenters. The story has a lot of promise and a lot of ways it can go. There are villains that pop up and great friendships made along the way. Mysteries, suspense, humor, romance, and perhaps a love triangle. Not sure yet.

I must say the characters are quite well written. The world building is very well done and it keeps you wanting for more. Really love how much detail the author has put into the story doing it just right, neither too much not too less. Will I recommend this yes

I like the first few chapters, first chapter gave the vibe on how the battles will be, and the Crab thingy was 'out of the box'. Definitely will continue reading the next chapters!

The premise is refreshingly unique, and the characters are well-developed with distinct personalities and depth. The writing flows smoothly, with a natural rhythm that makes it easy to stay immersed in the story. It’s a compelling blend of originality, strong characterization, and polished prose. overall its 10/10.

The story follows the main character, a vanilla hero with the ability to bring back dead humans. With the help of a crab that can purify the humans that had been turned to monsters due to the apocalypse, and a goal of 1million humans brought back alive, he embarks on a journey of survival, kingdom building, and war to preserve the hope of humanity and being them back from the brink of extinction. A great novel so far and I am hoping to see many more chapters soon! Keep up the great work!
