This is a minor list, so will not get much updates as other lists. You better to check out my other list about popular love interests, there are plenty of them MC like a loner but because I can't check them all so I decided to add them after reading them. <<less

Loner mc, pragmatic and deserve the word "smart", with plot that's readable. ... more>>

Deeply cultivation based, with no world saving drama. Only for pure Daoists.  <<less

Stories where a single MC (or the protagonist stands out and is the focus) who struggles, travels, explore and maybe fights in a fantasy world (detailed and solid). The world will definitely suck you in. ... more>>

The ranking doesn't specifically correlate to its quality, each and every novel in this list kept me awake through the night.

These novels made me into an addict so beware!

I have read a considerable number of chapters of each novel even if not all. 

I have a very specific intolerance, so all the novels would have high ratings. <<less

Novels about MC's who only care about themselves. To them, everyone else is a side character who they don't care if they live or die. ... more>>

*Note: Some novels on this list will have the MC care about literally one person, if they care about more than one it's not going to be added* <<less

Super cool list. 

The six best that I have read so far (hundred+) 

Although i m not the person who has read all the novels i most certainly consider my self as one the crazy novel readers.... more>>

One of my favorite types are where you get to see the reactions of other people based of the mc's action and i thats the really fun part and probably the sole reason why "underestimated tag" is famous.

My list belongs to the type of novel I read and Let me tell you what you won't/will Find here

1. Bull sh*t about Friendship Spirit and love which makes me puke out of cringe.

2. Novels which people disregard based on things like "this doesn't make sense how can there be magic and modern day" 

3. Novels which people disregard saying" the explanations are too much" which you can skip with enough intelligence and some other dumb shit. 

4. Novels where the MC gets lucky at every single step one after another like a who*e who succu....*chough* *cough*..... You get it.

5. Novels which are worth read and you will be spending time on them and the novel with too few chapters wont be there or if they are then you can be sure that the mtl is readable and its available on lnmtl

5 Make sure to know the novels won't have all the tags but most probably atleast one.

6. Looking for Male protagonist novels doesn't mean im a sexist

Enjoy

<And oh yeah if you have read all the novels on the list then congratulations mine and yours tastes match woooo!.. so now you can suck my d**k.(you know i m kidding right ;p. ) <<less

little to no romance

Common POints-MC with : [ Or ] < System > < Unique Power > < Cold and Calm Character > < Rebirth > < Apocalypse > < Comedy > < Fan-fiction > < Solo > < Cheat > < Killer >.... more>>

I like novels in which upper mentioned things are there (anyone). But, MC should not share his powers with others and form an Adventure Party or so. Reality doesn't work like that.

I don't want MC to share his unique cheat or system power with others.

[ Just think if everyone can become iron man, then MC is no longer unique but instead too common. And in a fantasy world if you are not unique then do you think one day you can become strongest or God or something. Then no. Giving my system to others. WTF? Why not become a side character instead and help MC to become strong ( like a stepping stone ).]

MC who are high over heels behind girls, I don't like.

If MC is not unique, then alright. But, he should at least have a strong mentality or great ambition. Not like I want to live a happy life but instead, I want to become strongest, WHY? Go ask Goku why? No need to have a reason for this, right.

It's like why you want to be rich?

I don't like MC who is too kind and childish and author show it as it is best and noble and good.

Even many RAWS link is also here which are on-site such as [ Uukanshu ] a Chinese site. <<less

Just a list of SoL romcoms when you are having a hard time searching. 

Characters who have self-serving personalities or tendencies, and may or may not show it in interactions, actions, emotions, intent, and thoughts. Or just that the character has a willingness to do things that aren't compatible with our modern and diverse views regarding morals, ethics, principles, and ideals of good. Of course these books have different tones and also handling of this subject.... more>>

The list was created with much subjectivity, as I won't put protagonists whose good qualities overshadows all their impactful grey actions and evil actions, which is important to me regardless of whether they are truly good or evil. -> Different examples of who I won't include are Song Shuhang (kindness), Klein Moretti (principles and heroic actions), Kim Dokja (altruism), and Chen Ge (goodwill and generosity).

Work in progress. Of course I have read these, I will simply state if I did not. Most are good novels but I will add some non-favorites, which is purely my opinion because I have a personal standard of quality.

UNRANKED

Let me not bother about my face and recommend my list for top quality novels I've enjoyed:  https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/16488/ <<less

I hate harem. Why? Because most of the time it leads the story to a direction that's not pleasing. And most of all I don't... more>> fantasize about having thousands of girl on my lap.  Hell I'm not even interested in romance . Anyway this list contains novels that have zero harem and maybe it will have novels that have romance, but almost all of them are not focused on romance
So enjoy (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*.✧ <<less

 Be basked in the world of your delusions! Japanese romantic comedy novels to read that will never happen to you in real life...... more>>

If for some reason you did experience it in real life then, dang you're amazing! You must be blessed ( must have been troublesome)

And for those who didn't...seek comfort by reading these novels where your dreams takes on a whole different level! May you be blessed as soon as possible...jk!

( no ranks) #Romcom is an EXPLOSION!  <<less

This might be your ordinary or unordinary list, that it, I guess.... more>>

Not every series has the tag, but as long the heroine is known for something that almost the whole school knows then it's included.

I will update the list regularly, so make sure you follow especially new novels later.

Todo: Sort the list based on personal enjoyment, it's a mess right now lol (In Progress, so far only the first three)

Note: I am likely to exclude triangle love drama that has been dragged/milk for so long, well harem mostly skipped too.

***

Any reason why I'm making these romcoms list to be each category? It's obvious to give what people needed at the moment since there are many romcom novels out there, but the real reason is due to most of them are only being trialed and then dropped due to lack of readers and low exposure due to so many similarities that we can find with "Series Finder" and not many people can utilize them fully. By making these lists people can know more novels when they check the "Recommendation Lists" and what look they like by category though it does not really have a big impact really much since the older lists will be forgotten/pushed to bottom with the new ones. This is the one of NUs lacking currently, many new translated novels are not getting enough exposure to people hence dropping after a few chapters translated due to reasons including demotivating the translator each time their project doesn't gain any attention. CMIIW, the end. <<less

Evil and Ruthless Male Protagonists... more>>

More info on what i am searching: (The title may not be entirely accurate.)

Evil mc ( someone who do not care about other people, and can do anything for his goals )

Ruthless mc ( someone who do not hesitate to kill )

Neutral mc ( Neither a good person, nor a bad person, But care more about his own profits, Rational-Pragmatic type of route )

No Romance ( For this one, i also mean, less romance or none maybe, as well. No romance and no female lead are different. )

No Heroine ( i will use this word for those novels where there is no female lead. ) This is a word you find usually in mtl.

Since i have used all these tags, then the novel i will recommend can be any one them or maybe mix of a few or all. I will leave some info in most of em, so you can know which one it is. If i just go to search books that are no romance or such tags, i can get too many books, but in this list i will recommend only what i know or what i have read or think is unique.

Book lists order might be messed up as i continue adding book, and even then order will be based on my personal liking, so treat it as non-existent and read the one you like more.
