If you happen to enjoy lib brainworms, the Mistborn saga from SandersonIndustries™ is something like this. But extremely lib.

The main character in Mistborn is literally the most special special person, tho.

I feel like the answer to this is more The Boys, where normies paramilitarize to confront Magical Corporate Fascists.

Alternatively, if you don’t mind kid drama, The Rescuers Down Under or An American Tale. Or even just 101 Dalmatians.

Stories about little guys and underdogs standing up to old corrupt establishments.

The second era has some industrialization and capitalism and the inklings of worker solidarity in that there are strikes and riots over the conditions. Still full of lib brainworms in it’s handling of course.

After the three first books with the whole reset of the universe by God himself? They already had monarchic capitalism and workers revolts, and in the second book there is le evil gommunist taking over a whole city, but luckly our heroes prove they were evil and make them see the Kauskyite light, yet of course, the bestest system remains a parlamentarian monarchy with a rich dipshit special emo boy as king because reasons.

exactly, after the reset I wanted to read more about the riots and the demands of the common folk but the books are about some boring noble who looks to be going a class traitor route but just ends up like Batman, going after the common criminals.

Not really?

The second book is the one where the socdem monarchist boy realizes that the capitalist elite will band with the nobles in order to keep their capital even when there’s a massive war coming. The answer to this? Fuck them, eliminate their entire power and install an absolute monarchy/roman dictatorship where at least the king is kind of ok.

Then the third book has the ebil comunist mind controlled guy. Which really sucked.
