Naruto: Shippuuden

It has been two and a half years since Naruto Uzumaki left Konohagakure, the Hidden Leaf Village, for intense training following events which fueled his desire to be stronger. Now Akatsuki, the mysterious organization of elite rogue ninja, is closing in on their grand plan which may threaten the safety of the entire shinobi world. Although Naruto is older and sinister events loom on the horizon, he has changed little in personality—still rambunctious and childish—though he is now far more confident and possesses an even greater determination to protect his friends and home. Come whatever may, Naruto will carry on with the fight for what is important to him, even at the expense of his own body, in the continuation of the saga about the boy who wishes to become Hokage.

Potion-danomi de Ikinobimasu!

On her way to meet friends for drinks, Kaoru Nagase suddenly collapses. While attempting to fix a distortion in the space-time continuum, the god managing Earth made a mistake that resulted in Kaoru's death. Fortunately, the god preserves her mind and soul, granting her a second chance at life in another world, Verny. To make up for this divine error, Verny's goddess Celestine provides Kaoru with various blessings: a youthful body, proficiency in all languages, an item box with infinite storage, and—most importantly—the ability to spontaneously create any kind of potion, limited only by her imagination. However, her powers prove too advanced for a medieval world like Verny. As she tries to enjoy her new life and escape those who covet her abilities, Kaoru travels across different nations—but the bits of influence she leaves behind may soon amass into something out of control.

Yuusha, Yamemasu

When Demon Queen Echidna begins her invasion of the human realm, the people turn to the hero Leo Demonheart to protect them. Blessed with insurmountable power, Leo easily repels Echidna's army, thereby saving the world. But instead of gratitude or admiration, Leo is met with disdain and scorn from his fellow humans, who fear his overwhelming strength and believe that it may eventually cause humanity's demise. Banished from the kingdom he once called home, Leo wanders aimlessly throughout the land until, one day, he hears rumors of Echidna's efforts to rebuild her army. Hoping that demonkind might accept him as an ally, he returns to the demon queen's castle and offers Echidna his help. Naturally, Echidna immediately rejects him. Still, not all hope is lost, as Leo manages to convince Echidna's four generals to let him secretly work under their supervision. Donning the identity of a masked dark knight named Onyx, Leo solves the demon army's problems one by one—gradually improving the quality of life around the castle. Above all else, however, Leo wants to accomplish one goal: to learn why Echidna started the war in the first place.
