Reader insert is fanfiction that involves an original character who lacks a name. THey're just called Y/N (Your Name). You're basically written into the plot.

It's relatively common on deviantart and wattpad.

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

Yes, but I dislike all of them. I'm more tolerant to ships than Character x Reader in this espect. I also dislike 1st/2nd POV literature. They're just not my cup of tea

Read personally no, seen some arts of someone putting themselves into the universe, Yes I've seen already few people who made their own anime style designs for Bleach 5th/4th/3rd seats for X division of Gotei 13 (actually never seen someone doing that with VanderReich or Hueco Mundo)

Yes. I'm a simp so that's my go-to. I'm not big into character x character unless it's a ship that I really like.

I have read some, but it's not my thing. I'd rather pick hot character/other hot character(/third hot character) fic, they're usually more interesting both in bad and good way.

Sure, I've probably read like 50% of all English self insert fics with my preferred character. I've even considered writing my own, haven't gotten that far yet though :P

not really, ive tried reading some but most of them are poorly written and it irks me because every two sentences there's something wrong with the grammar and i also usually prefer reading in the 3rd POV too. so maybe i'm just being picky LOL

Is that the same as SI OC fics? But the characters have names... so I'm not sure if my answer is yes or no. I've read several SI OC fics in the Naruto fandom though it's been years since I read one.

Sort of, it's the same idea of including an original character and works exactly the same. Just look up something like Naruto x Reader or something.

I've read them before, but not because I wanna insert myself into the story - I'm just curious.

Maybe I made some weird magical girl fanfiction comics as a child, but I don't think I've ever read any fanfiction, much less the self-insert ones.

I've only read 1 fan fiction and that was in like the late 2000s I want to say and it wasn't a self insert and more of a non-canon ship scenario mixed in with some niche fetishism for good measure.

Self-insert fan fictions are a hilarious concept though.

No but that does sound interesting... not sure if I'd enjoy it or just ignore it & read it as a normal fanfic

Yes, the spin off visual novel/rpgs for half of the anime shovelwares. Making you the random memoriless person who happens to be there. I confess it was fun choosing between dating Lelouch or Nunnally in Code Geass Lost colors game.

There’s a lot of it but it hasn’t piqued my interest ever. I’d rather read or write about existing characters.
