2nd List -- Stories that have been noted down for their interesting and unique plots / writings / translations. These stories can be in various eras; they can be stone-age, historical, modern, fantasy, and even end of the world kind of era~ ... more>>

Most QTs have very long chapters and are still WIP. Some I have personally MTL'ed just to satisfy my curiosity ^_^ 

Just a bit of warning: a few of these stories have quite bizarre plots.. and some are mature/R-rated. So be careful. 

You can steer clear of them if you're uncomfortable with unorthodox plots and uncensored scenes; be it sensual, violent or gruesome--

Hope you'll have fun reading them~ <<less

I will try to put on novels that I’m sure there isn’t any romance nor harem and have already read them so to be double sure and some are recommended to me and had told me there isn’t :>

Any that are involve with the tag romance is explained in the bottom ^^*

Loving family for the beginning, knowing, and get transmigrated in a novel or another world ✌️

Novels that are 9-10/10 ratings for me

Insert:

Mother Of Learning (Beautifully Written!)

PS: The list are not in order <<less

No romance, no harem, no marriage, MC just wants to live with his/ her family and his/ her friends

these are some korean+chinese novels that i have read in the past and really liked. there are obviously a lot of really famous ones. they are a wide range of genres ranging from action to slice of life (no romance tho). hope you like my list. ... more>>

p.s. im still writing my reviews and thoughts, so the list is not finished lol. it is not exactly reviews, its more like my stream of consciousness... 

i wanted to create a separate list for bromance, but i realized that almost all of the novels here have it. so, i will put them together here, but will specify the status of romance plot and bromance in each novel.

also its so hard finding good no romance novels...

p.s. there might be some novels with romance subplot. mostly it will be really minor and never interfers with the main goal or it is usually written in the extras after hints of romance in the main story. <<less

No description.

Any recommendations are very welcome! Stories where nothing really bad happens or if they do, there are really wonderful feel good scenes throughout most of the story. Something warm and sweet to read when stressed to make you smile, laugh or just feel happy. It's ranked according to rating which is basically how much I enjoyed the story. It's not ranked on how heartwarming the story is.... more>>

I wish I can put my own tags but I can't so I'll add some here haha:

Family is Important, Feel Good, Family Love, Warmth, Sweetness, Friends that feel like real friends <<less

Sweet BL story base on my preferences. A mature, calm, no bloody drama

What I mean is the FMC is really a child with child mentality. Not an adult transmigrated as a child or rebirther. ... more>>

I’m not adding Korean novels this is mainly Chinese novels  <<less

Read the first part for more recommendations (Link: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/24850/) 

P. S. Not in order <<less

Criteria:... more>>

1) story-focused, grand outer plot

2) world-building, specifically not about romantic growth, but personal and professional growth

BLs focusing on MC-ML's life and adventure, not checking off romantic checkpoints. Story is filled with world building. Low to NO romance in the early chapters, Aro-Ace friendly. Not in any order. 

//friends, rivals become lovers //three-dimensional side characters //plot focused //love grows over time //fake bromance <<less

The following is a list of the top Japanese gender bender fantasy novels without romance and harem that I have ever read.  Novels with the gender bender genre give a sense of how a man was changed into a girl for certain reasons.  ... more>>

Generally, novels with gender bender will fall into gender identity deviations so that they often fall into deviant genres such as yuri and yaoi.  

However, if the author is sane enough to present plot stories, gender bender novels can be interesting novels because these present the point of view of a man in a girl's body in living his life story without having to be trapped in romance and harem. 

 Therefore, novels with gender bender genre must create conditions in which the MC does not want to be trapped in the deviation of gender identity by engaging in romantic relationships that end in deviation.  

In other words, the MC must be single for life and focus on her life goals. <<less

As Japanese novels generally contain brocon / siscon as a spice for the story. However, these novels are quite heartwarming regarding the meaning of family life.... more>>

Some novels may still be in ongoing status, I will try my best to avoid a distorted ending, namely 'in*est'. This list will be updated further if a 'win in*est' ending is found.

I mean, brother and sister should forever be a family, not lovers or anything like that. Thus, a good brother and sister relationship is an older brother and younger sister who care for each other. 

The plot of the story may contain romance and harem as sub plots or genres although I try to avoid them as much as possible.  Don't forget I will avoid the red genres as much as possible so that it is friendly to read everyone.  And here are the novel recommendations: <<less
