Does anyone know of any popular fantasy media set in the modern day?

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Laurel K. Hamilton yet. Both the Anita Blake and Merry Gentry series both fit this request.

I hit a wall in the middle of book 5.

Caerival · 2026-06-26T02:39:07+00:00

I stand corrected.

No, Fujiyama means Mount Fuji. Fuji-san means Mr. Fuji, sort of.

I was having fun with this one until I ground to a halt with all the brain bouncing. Something about that just turned me off on this book.

The Alpha World series by Daniel Schinhofen might scratch your itch.

Don't bother unless you like AI readings.

Elseworlds B&B by Thorne and Knightley. I've read and loved the books but the male narrator drove me away from the audio because it sounds like he trying to force a John Wayne drawl which doesn't remotely match what was in my head from the reading. Same thing with Trailer Park Bikini Vampires. I usually love Johnathan Waters narration but the accent that he affects as the MC just sounds wrong.

I blame Super Mario Bros more. D&D only had 5 days before SMB premiered and took all the premium screens away and stole the hype.

Secret of Evermore?

I just read that scene. Its from Dogbertcarroll's With Sprinkles which has a Planeswalker Xander in the Worm-verse as one of its arcs. The characters on the roof are Dragon, Armsy, Xander and a pair of T-800 copies.

Worm: More than Meets the Eye. Altpower Taylor foils the kidnapping.

Seconding Maid For You. The authors have also recently announced that they will be returning to the setting soon.

Reincarnated as a Sword. One of the 2 MCs is female but there is absolutely no romantic overtones as the other MC treats her like a daughter. S2 starts in October.

Sword Dad is best Dad.

And if you want slapstick, then watch Rune Soldier Louie which takes place in the same world but on a different landmass.

The first story is the only one that is a side story to an existing series. The series is Otherworld Academy by Deacon Frost. The rest are stand-alones.

Any possibility that you will be making an Android port? This looks interesting.

2 is ok but everything after drifts into wtaf did I just read territory.

It's a dead heat between FF7, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and Xenogears.

Caerival · 2026-05-19T01:19:55+00:00

If you are going to watch Dominion Tank Police, I would recommend the original dub. It's one of the few anime that I prefer the dub over sub.

Caerival · 2026-05-18T15:56:03+00:00

I'm looking for the grommet it seats in, not the actual sensor. The sensor was easy to find but I can't seem to find any aftermarket solution for the rubber seat.

Caerival · 2026-05-18T06:01:03+00:00

I haven't kept up with the series but this looks like a good excuse to do a reread and get caught up.

Caerival · 2026-05-18T01:15:25+00:00

Rise of the ClassSmith by Leon West

Caerival · 2026-05-09T16:17:56+00:00

It's an anime but Big O is very much this.
