I'm pretty sure 90% of my readers would be more familiar to COTE than Yamiyo no Hotaru so I'm gonna put a brief summary here.
The official title of the novel is "I Was Reincarnated as a Nameless Combatant in a Japanese-style Fantasy Depressive Erotic Game, but the Women Around Me Are All Dangerous, and I Have a Bad Feeling about It."
The title already tells the story and there is no further explanation needed.
The heroines that appear in the story are generally yandere and can easily die from one wrong choice. Even without making a mistake, the irrationality of the world (created by the author) can come and kill anyone.
Yamiyo no Hotaru (Firefly of the Dark Night) is a Japanese-style dark fantasy game that was initially released as an eroge in the main character's (Tomobe, or now, Kiyo's) previous life. The eroge's main character was a plain child from a wealthy and peaceful village, but when the village was destroyed by youkai, he awakened powerful abilities and was taken in by the Kizuki family, a landowner and exorcist family.
It was a depressing game that mercilessly depicted violence and had numerous bad endings. Players were not only slaughtered and violated by youkai, but also betrayed and trapped by supposed allies. The heroines were not always a source of comfort, and players could end up with bad endings if he mistreated them, as they could become yandere and try to eliminate other heroines or kidnap the main character.

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka (Tomobe) (May or may not appear in the theater, you guys decide) - The main character of this fanfic. After being murdered, Kiyo found himself reincarnated inside the eroge he was forcibly played by Sotomura. He first planned on having a slow peaceful life, but being born in an extremely poor family and having the threat of youkais around, he eventually gave up and decided to give the eroge's main character a helping hand by manipulating events from the shadows. Despite having significant fighting abilities and knowledge that he gained from his past life, he intentionally hides them as to not get any interest from the higher ups.
After being adopted and demoted in the Kizuki household, he is given the name "Tomobe" as he is repeatedly sent to the front lines as a lowly underling, facing certain death at every turn. Despite this, he manages to survive thanks to his extensive knowledge of the original work, his own efforts, and a strong mental fortitude.
The heroines from the original work are recognized as "landmines" that could kill him if he gets too close, so he does not view them as potential love interests. He firmly believes they are fixated on the original Main Character and is completely unaware that he himself is being targeted.
A/N: Since Kiyo is the one reincarnated here, he'll be the new Tomobe.
