I have a soft spot for naive and oblivious MCs, so here goes my list.... more>>

BG - heterosexual. BL - boy love <<less

reincarnating into an over-powered main lead trope

Slower paced web/light novels that require you to pay attention while reading them. Generally a larger focus on dialogue, philosophy and descriptions.

Top Tier Novels which I have personally read. All of them are worth reading for many reasons. No specific genre, only top quality novels.... more>>

Note: Most focus is given on "fun" element, so even if Translation is bad or novel has some other defects it will still be a quality read. <<less

Don't expect many harems with characters who can't think for themselves or fall in love with the MC before page 1. Many might have a slow moving plot... have to invest yourself into the characters to find the tragic, beautiful and poignant!... more>>

First, some English original webnovels that are superb and easily googleable (in order of best characters, not necessarily plot): 
1. Trailer tr*sh
2. Iron Teeth
3. Castle Kingside (rewrite)
4. Metaworld Chronicles
5. The Good Student
6. Worm (Parahumans)
7. AnimeCon Harem (18+)
8. Mother of Learning
9. Selena's Reign
10. Double Blind: A modern litRPG
11. Tidal Lock (unfinished)

Note that I've been recently pruning and updating the list to remove some that were just good stories with average characters and move them over to new lists that are top of their genre. You can see all my rec lists at https://www.novelupdates.com/user/10378/tallrice/ <<less

My favorite cultivation/magic novels. romance usually is pretty late or as a subplot.... more>>

The ones with male MC have no harem.

The ones with female MC are ACTUALLY READABLE.
