Time Stop Brave Challenge
Time Stop Brave (Jikan Teishi Yuusha) is an ecchi manga by Yasunori Mitsunaga, the same person who made Princess Resurrection. Kuzuno Sekai is a typical loser teen who suddenly gets transported to a fantasy world that resembles a video game because people can level up. He only has the clothes on his back and his video game controller, which he learns can freeze time indefinitely when he hits Pause. He does... exactly what you'd think a horny teen would do with it. One of the biggest running gags is that whenever he meets women, he freezes time to strip and grope them, then returns their clothes so they don't notice when he unfreezes time. He does have standards because he never kisses or rapes them, and he acts chivalrous despite his perversions. He is at least smart enough not to advertise his ability. For example, his usual method of dealing with attackers is to freeze time and strip them naked, then resume time to embarrass them, and he pretends he did that via Disarmament Magic. People often mistake him for having super speed because he often appears or disappears from their perspective.
Anyway, there is a timer only Sekai can see that counts down. He has no idea what it means, but he worries that if it reaches zero, he'll die, so he does his best to fulfill whatever mission he has. When he completes a mission, there is a brief fireworks celebration and the timer resets, usually to three days but sometimes up to ten days. Fortunately, the timer stops when he freezes time, but there are many times when he has no choice but to let time flow, like if he is waiting for someone or something to arrive, if he is traveling by ship, or if he has to ask a cleric to heal him. When dealing with a problem, he'll often leave time frozen for hours or even weeks while he figures out how to solve it. After training for weeks while time was frozen, he has become a formidable swordsman, and he'll often cheat by stabbing or slashing monsters while time is frozen, giving others the illusion that he's fast enough to kill in an instant. King Woz II Belltree gives him the title National/Salvation Brave, a hero of the country, and assigns him missions. The biggest mission of all is to defeat the King of Darkness, a demon who is trying to take over the world. In spite of his perversions, Sekai is fundamentally a good person and does his best to help and protect people.
Sekai's main companions are the thief Niña (since she's a loli, he hardly does anything with her other than occasionally ogling her) and the Dark Elf Fury (who is somehow able to tell when he gropes her while time is frozen and scolds him every time; she was also able to figure out he can stop time on her own).
So far, he has met many lovely ladies and some are attracted to him. In order of appearance: Niña, Princess Alicia Belltree (an ingenue type with holy powers whom Sekai is really attracted to), Fury, Alicia's sister Princess Clau Belltree (a powerful knight), Clau's three companions: an archer, a mage, and a cleric (so far, only the mage's name, Yelda, was revealed), Fiona (a girl he rescued from goblins; goblins here are similar to the ones from Goblin Slayer), Leafa Colby (a swordmaster who is so fast that she can hit Sekai before he can react and even just as time freezes, giving him a valuable lesson that time freezing does not make him invincible), Zaraza (a demon minion of the King of Darkness and an enemy, but she seems to slowly become attracted to Sekai over time), Lovisa (a mage), Ranga (a really tough woman from a mountain tribe), three unnamed witch sisters whom Sekai had to beat in a fight to get them to help him, and Miria (an island shaman). Though he hasn't met her as of Chapter 21, Miria has a sister named Mirei. These aren't even counting the background girls.
As of this writing, 21 chapters have been released online, and it is awesome if you can find the uncensored versions as the fanservice is out of this world. Heh heh.
The challenge is: Just like Peter Grill and the Philosopher's Time, there are no Time Stop Brave stories on this site. Be the first to write one. It can be about anything: the final battle against the King of Darkness, Sekai needing to use his time freeze to solve some kind of problem, or even an M-rated one where Sekai finally indulges in his harem.
It could even be a crossover. Could you imagine what someone like Issei Hyoudou from High School D×D or Kazuma from Konosuba would do if he were in Sekai's shoes? If Sekai were present in a setting like Goblin Slayer, Overlord, Re:Zero, or Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?
AN: After further research, I discovered there are actually two Peter Grill stories on this site, but one is a cancelled crossover with Naruto and Devil May Cry called "A Devil's Philosopher's Time" where Naruto, who has become part-Devil, takes Peter's place. The other is a crossover with the Total Drama series called "Cody Anderson and the Philosopher's Time" where Cody Anderson takes Peter's place. The Peter Grill and the Philosopher's Time Challenge is still on. Just make new stories. Hopefully, one day this site will have sections dedicated to Peter Grill and the Philosopher's Time and Time Stop Brave.
