Reincarnation (trope): Difference between revisions
→Anime and Manga
Line 53:
* ''[[The World's Finest Assassin or The World's Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated in Another World as an Aristocrat]]''. The elderly protagonist is a hired gun who is done in by his employers in what is to be his last job, but is saved by a Goddess who gives him two choices: be reincarnated in his own world with no memories, or be reincarnated in another world with all his memories and skills. Given the title, he takes option 2, but there ''is'' a catch here, he must use those skills to slay "The Hero" within 18 years of his new life. This isn't going to be easy - he's not the first one to be given this offer.
* Tanya von Degurechaff, the title [[Villain Protagonist]] from ''[[The Saga of Tanya the Evil]]'' was initially a workaholic salaryman and corporate tycoon in modern day Japan, he was murdered by a co-worker, reincarnated as a girl in a fantasy version of World War I, raised to be a remorseless soldier, all with memories of her previous life intact. Having been roped into a life she never wanted not asked for (yet incredibly good at it), she seeks revenge on the one she holds responsible - [[Rage Against the Heavens| namely, God]].
* {{spoiler| Luffy}} in ''[[One Piece]]'', possibly. {{spoiler| It was revealed in the Wano Country Arc that his ''Gumo Gumo no Me'' Devil Fruit, long thought to be a Paramecia class fruit, was in fact a Mythical Zoan, which bestowed the power of the Sun God upon it's user along with the title and powers of [[Messiah| Joy Boy]], the previous user of the fruit. Whether this means Luffy is the true Joy Boy reborn (his true self “awakened” by mastery of the fruits powers) or whether he was simply bestowed with the title of Joy Boy is up for debate.}}
