In the "From the new world" anime it seems like whenever a human child might not have powers or be underpowered then they are culled by the education board. I've heard it said in another answer by someone that read the manga, that in the manga the education board is afraid that people might bec...

I was revisiting Rowling (and Yudkowski) and it occurred to me that the professors teach Defense Against the Dark Arts in the first six Harry Potter books all had hidden identities… except for Dolores Umbridge maybe? Quirrinus Quirrel: Hiding part of Tom Riddle's soul, which had occasion to com...

Ok I am just going to say everything I remember about the book. So it started with a boy and his uncle and they found a girl, and I believe she was hurt. They went to a hotel and the girl marveled at the hot water in the bath. She also ate a good meal but she threw it up outside of the hotel. Al...

During The End Times, Gotrek: and Felix I’ve not read much of the Age Of Sigmar, I just can’t bring myself to invest any time in it. But can anyone tell me if there has been any mention of either Gotrek or Felix since the Age of Sigmar began?

From what I remember, the manga was set in a world the people's magic power was determined by the symbol they were born with. There were four symbols. I think that the weakest symbol was suited for blacksmiths,so lets call it the blacksmiths symbol.. So the protagonist was this really smart(or st...

I read this probably in the 1990s but it could have been written earlier. It was probably in an anthology and in English. The story is about a person, probably a man, who is in some kind of stasis or suspended animation on a spaceship for a long voyage. I think there were hundreds of other crew/...

I remember the movie was based in or near lousiana. The creature was a black type ooze and attacked by body heat. The folks hid in gas station in a cooler from the creature and at one point a state trooper gets killed by the creature.

For those advent Marvel Comics readers may remember ROM AND THE SPACEKNIGHTS. It was the comic that the DIRE WRAITHS first appeared— they had shapeshifting abilties through contact but their touch was deadly, absorbing life from the victims—- you later learned that they were evolutionary offshoot...

i like to read some books about feeling as woman during sexual activity and see the world in there viewpoint, so i searched some eBooks about gender swap and found some eBooks like this. Also I see this video and this post: Controlling your genes using just your mind? Sounds like fiction, bu...

I once read a short story in a magazine (most likely Asmiov's or Fantasy and Science Fiction) about reincarnation. I am trying to locate the story. Here's what I know. I'm hoping someone might be able to help me identify the story, author, and/or source... 1) Society has developed a way to i...

I watched this anime a few years ago. Its about a few girls (i think 3) that get given a power by a little creature (actually an exiled prince from another world). The power is they can transform into different versions of themselves to help others. The main girl (i think has pink hair) has a cru...

David Zindell's Neverness setting uses a lot of obscure and foreign language words to evoke the feel of the setting. While nowhere near as obscure or dense as Gene Wolfe, there is still at least one word whose usage or derivation I don't fully understand: "Tubist." It's used most often in conj...

I am looking for this sci-fi book I read sometime in the early 2000s, and I believe it was published around then too, definitely no later than 2007. I have been looking for this book since about 2007 with no luck whatsoever so I appreciate the help! I vaguely remember the cover being minimalist ...

I remember in high school 20ish years ago reading a short story probably in an anthology or collection about lovers who time travel while they’re together in their apartment bedroom. It was quite a simple premise, well executed, and very romantic. It also had a great ending where they ceased to e...
