Yes it's another one of those list of main characters transmigrating to a novel, game, or having a 2nd chance at life.

If you don't like romance and harem novels, then this list might help you find good novels.  This list of Japanese novels is generally of the SOL, fantasy, and adventure genres with the theme of family and friendship.  ... more>>

For example, the adventures of a father and his daughter in a fantasy world.  Or it could be SOL's story that warms the heart.  

Apart from avoiding the harem and romance genres, I also try to avoid red genres as much as possible (genres are forbidden or should not be read by children or under 15 years old) such as adult, mature, ecchi, and gore. But it could be that in the story there is some content as subplots even though it is not the focus of the story. I mean, I'm also disturbed or uncomfortable with the existence of the red genres or similar contents, even though sometimes the contents are a little needed for plot story development.

The following are recommendations for Japanese novels without romance and harem but focusing on stories of family and friendship in a fantasy world. I hope that you all enjoy reading these novels! <<less

As a man, I am not interested in shoujo novels in general... However, there are some that I've dared to try out that I've quite enjoyed. Here's a list!... more>>

Some I've admittedly not yet tried but soon intend to do so since they look like they would appeal, so my confidence level in the appeal is high for the first 15 titles, and... more experimental for the following...

Also, check out:
- The calamity of a reborn witch on RRL, it's a really great novel

The list consist of :

1) Main genres that dominantly story (about 70-90 %) 

2 )Theme - setting this novels eg ancient China, xiaxia, fantasy wold, MMORPG, etc

3) Reason - i will explain why this novels outstanding aspects

I make this arrangement so readers  have can find easier and suitable novels according preference.

I do not read yaoi, yuri, R-18 and world hopping so none of them on list. I mainly read CN and KN so if u search JN u might find little in this list. Lastly i will try to update monthly so u can check if there are new change on list.
