A few hidden gems ... others not so much but all of them totally worth the read. List spans quite a few genre such as Fantasy, sci-fi, cultivation, management, mystery.... more>>

Not all novels in the list will have top ratings. In my opinion the best novels are rated around 3.2 - 4.5. Anything over is mostly BL or FL with some exceptions. Anything below is mostly tr*sh with minor exceptions of novels for people with very specific taste. 

PS: All my recommendations are based on MTL. I rarely read human translated versions ..  <<less

These are STRAIGHT CHINESE & KOREAN NOVELS in which the transmigrated/reborn/reincarnated MC gain popularity by presenting other people's ideas or works from different world/era as theirs. Please advise if there are any misses.... more>>

Currently obsessed with reading these kinda stuff. No harem. No romance. <<less

Just see the tags.. Only add Complete novel (translated or MTL), and no BL/GL. There still some novel in my bookmarks chrome that yet i move here..... more>>

Oh, i can't add anymore (⁠・⁠o⁠・⁠)  i already make the sec list \⁠(⁠ϋ⁠)⁠/ <<less

This list includes web novels focused on making money (or bartering in the case of more primitive settings) using modern knowledge. Some of them are small-scale business owners, whereas others create kingdoms and focus on macro-economics. 
Some are gxb, others are BL, but barely any harems!! The harems included are basically inoffensive. I usually stay away from game elements like systems or cheats, but they're kind of inevitable in the genre. ... more>>

All of them are completed on mtl! 

On other websites: 

-Lady of the Lord From the East 

- The Landlord and His Wife 

- Mountain People  <<less

List of favourites based mainly on:... more>>

isekai in any form (reincarnation etc.),  game elements, overpowered protagonist, country building and management, army building, modern knowledge in fantasy world and technological gap, crafting .

MC is pretty much always in control, always has a plan and always ends up on top. Or just has plot armor.

I don't exclude harems (even bad ones), if novel is good by itself. 

No yaoi. No pure wuxia or xianxia.

I don't include novels that are too short (less than 20-100 chapters depending on chapter length).

Some of novels may not be available on NU or be incomplete, but they are somewhere in web.

Novels are mainly Korean or Japanese. There are some Chinese novels included but they are either heavily west-influenced or not cultivation oriented. Basically, they are not Chinese-heavy if You know what I mean. The World Online is the only exception, as I simply skipped most of boring chapters.

Novels are kind of sorted best to "worst", though last novels on list my be unsorted at all. <<less

List of novels in my To Read list for my favourite trope, rags to riches! To my best guess anyway since I haven't read them XD. Also usually slice of life. ... more>>

I'll also put what made me want to pick the story up. Just be warned that I will delete the story from the list after I've read so the list will frequently change. I like to view the cover art of the book, and be able to see a lot of novel details on the list in one place instead of having to click to the web novel page. I also include any translation detail like where to find them if they aren't on novelupdates so I can read the whole story without getting stuck halfway because of no translations. Not in any particular order but I try to put similar novels, either in expected tropes or vibes together. And the incompleted ones at the back.  Recommendations are very welcome! <<less

These are my go to, like I can't put them down. They are in no particular order, it's a mixer of genres so bare with... more>> me.  <<less

No bad endings, may have spice mixed in some of them although "some" of them may include *rape* (if interested they are at the end of page 1, not that there are many)... You are WARNED!!! ... more>>

Still updating part 2 so you can wait for new discoveries when you finish this list. ^^

1 to 24: Novels I read completely (if not ongoing), sorted in order of personal preference.... more>>

25 to ?: Novels I plan on reading in the future, not sorted.

Male centric (male protagonist) novels in both modern and ancient settings, no BL unless it's a little bromance (meaning, author may have added a dash of bromance for fan service, but no actual shounen ai or yaoi included in this list). Shounen, seinen, xuanhuan, no-CP (no romance) or novels featuring a little straight romance but mostly focused on action/adventure (ie, romantic subplot). One novel is harem with a sis con, but I enjoyed the MC and plot enough that it didn't bother me too much. Another novel is harem but only depicted in the extras, which I skipped!

Majority of these had fan translations completed at some point, so you can find them on various novel aggregator websites if the chapter links are gone from NU. <<less

Chinese BL set in ancient times, whether an alternate history on Earth or in a different world. These can be fantasy, xuanhuan, xianxia, wuxia, mpreg,... more>> or just ordinary historical. Includes shounen ai, yaoi, and BL with smut. Sorted in order of writing quality/personal preference. <<less

Novels where the MC knows he's not alone in the world. Another person transmigrated with him! (Or reborn).

Criteria:

1. This person who also transmigrated CANNOT be the ML. MC needs some support from other people too.

2. Must have memories of the modern world.

3. Must acknowledge that the other person is also a transmigrator. (SPIDERMAN MEME)

4. This person can be of any gender!

5. Must not be from a QT genre (multiple world-hopping). <<less

No description.

Danmei novels in modern/contemporary settings. No transmigration, no cultivation, just slice of life.
