Looking for novels with good development and pace.... more>>

None of that braindead MCs, copy-pasted scenarios over and over, or slow paced stories that drags on forever. 

Inspired by novels like Solo Leveling which got me into this genre. 

List will be updated as I read more. Do comment recommendations if you have any. Completed novel preferred. 

Nov 2020: Currently reading the novels on Kindle Oasis, great PDFs collated by traitorAIZEN (on vn-meido).  <<less

Now a classic sub-genre of the Isekai genre, getting transformed into a monster is often accompanied by game elements or ability to evolve...... more>>
