mostly, BL

Includes persistent and shameless pursuers who are bold enough to chase and passionately show affection to their loved ones.... more>>

- tons of passion: bold flirting, teasing, seducing, shamelessness, boldly standing up for each other, s*xual tension, bold straightforwardness, hot action, and dog food, wife/husband-chasing <<less

With e-sports being such a popular genre, I thought I should create a rec list for it. This list includes online gaming, video games, and game streaming. ... more>>

What makes this list different from other e-sports rec list? Nothing! BAHAHA 

So why am I making this list? Because I felt like it! 

- hope you enjoy!

- I’ve tried to include all forms of love. But this list contains more BL since it seems like many of the gaming novels are BL; sorry if this doesn’t suit your taste <<less

These are my collection of mind-blowing novels that I really recommend everyone to read. Every novel placed here means I feel they deserve to be Top... more>> 1. I’ve read hundreds of novels (completely read) but only a few deserve their place here. I will not be rating them on a scale as placing them in this list is after filtering out all the hundreds of novels I have read to find those that cannot be forgotten.  <<less

Danmei adapted to manhuas that have official English translations (completed/ongoing/discontinued) + where to read them (status included: ongoing unless stated otherwise). Most manhuas are R15 even when the novel's genre is yaoi.... more>>

Novels/manhuas that are printed or announced to be printed are put on the first page of the list. Works written by the same author are put together. Novels are sorted by their popularity.

Since the list reached 1oo positions, I created its second part, however they will be _both_ updated if and when new titles appear or get licensed, with new title's place based on the novel's popularity and/or whether the author's other works are on the list already. If you know danmeis with official English translations of their manhua adaptations that are here on novelupdates but not yet on my list, please let me know in the comments.

not in any order

*3-5 STAR RATINGS ONLY, MOSTLY 4 THO* 

- This list includes novels with the e-sports and gamers tag, whether the MC is the one in the spotlight or whether they are in the background as long as the tags are present I will add them. Recommendations are welcome

-------------------------------------------------

[DESCRIPTION] –The description of the novel.

[ROMANCE] - Indicates if there is romance in the story or not. I always base the novels that I read if it has good romance, since in some instances the romance completely ruins the story for me and sadly makes me drop the novel. In addition this helps categorizing what kind of romance genre it is, i.e yaoi, yuri, straight, shounen ai. 

[STATUS IN Country Of Origin] – Indicates the status of the novel whether it is completed or still ongoing, as well as a to compare it to the tl status.

[TL STATUS] - Indicates how far the translation team/person are. I added this in for I was sick and tired of sorting the story status to completed, finding a story that piqued my interest, then finding out it the tl chapters available aren't finished yet, really puts a frown on my face :( #stopthetranslationrickrollTo note I may be a bit late in updating the tl statuses as this list has many novels and I simply can't keep track of all of them.

*cough cough* more things to read.... the list is never ending...

Things that I've read with varying levels of enjoyment. Not exactly my favourite, but it's okay.

Mostly completed BL novels that I keep seeing on rec lists but I haven't gotten a chance to read yet

[work in progress, no particular order]

No description.

Gaming danmei's I love

tracking novels i read

No description.

no more looking up danmei recs but not writing them down n never knowing what to start next!... more>>

i don't read a/b/o, mpreg, prominent dom/sub dynamics, noncon/underage s*x, sex-focused plots in general, abusive relationships, mafia, first person pov.. also im not rly keen on master/disciple n apocalyptic settings but if the story is good enough i'll consider it

i like slowburn, strong characters, fantasy elements, some humor to balance the hurt n angst, and i love it when the men r a bit pathetic <3

(current reads at the top; updates added sporadically n places r often switched, this list is as messy as it gets) <<less

No description.

This list has no order and there are no harem novels here! (Sorry but I'm not a fan). Also there are some novels here that I haven't read, so I don't know if they are good or not.... more>>

PS: This is not the only list of BL Novels I made (Couldn't put all together because of the limit of 100 novels per list), if you are interested in more BL Novels feel free to check my other lists. <<less

For my personal reading list 

not in order 

No description.

No description.

bl novels i've read

what the name says

Part 2: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/64452/... more>>

Most of the novels I read have complete proper translations so if the red completed tag isn't there, that means there is a quality translation somewhere on the internet, it just isn't linked here in NU for REASONS. 

So just search it up because I'm too lazy to edit every novel description QAQ (maybe I will still eventually do that in the future tho). 

I will also try my best to indicate those I MTLed, but they should all be with many chapters released already (maybe some are even completed now bcs a few of these I read a long time ago), I just google translated the last 15 chapters or so. 

Hope I help some of you find good novels to read. In alphabetical order for now, will sort later~ <<less
