List of works adapted to Donghua anime. (JP works excluded as there are too many)

Random novels that I have read, am reading, or plan to read. Will update over time as I remember and find them all. 

Too little wives like 2 and 3 , don't count. I mainly prefer harem and polygamous novels as they are the reason I turned to light novels in the first place, anime,manga etc just don't have enough true harem endings, most just choose one girl and break my heart. That's why I make major concessions on certain novels to continue, as beggars can't be choosers. List is not optimized and places may change as many of them are close and the middle is hard to sot, there are a few great novels and tr*sh novels and more middle novels... more>>

, comments haven't been finished yet and I don't want to talk all day on one novel because I totally could. <<less

Personally recommend novels which I got after extensive searching. Any recommendations please leave em in the comment section.

All men beware! The effeminate main characters have invaded our masculine paradises. This list is the start of my attempts to help readers discover good, mostly mature, and masculine male protagonists. Only stories about the manliest, yet well-written male main characters may be found here.... more>>

The best of all stories which embody the strengths of the Masculine Heavenly Dao and reject the weaknesses of femininity and indecisiveness will be placed in this list.

Join me brothers in this most profound path so that we may seek enlightenment and cast off the shackles that bind our true masculine selves! <<less

An order of when I first started each novel. No particular ranking. Some good, some bad, some on pause.

I grew up with the development of Chinese Web Novels. In the beginning of 21st century, I started reading online novels, when Qidian set about... more>> expanding its business. Eastern fantasy was my favorite type. In every summer and winter vacation, I would read dozens of them. It was a great surprise for me when I heard NovelUpdates, which gave me the chance to create this list and share with you many memorable fantasy novels serving as milestones. <<less

This list is specifically for second chances/age regression in fantasy, historical or VRMMO settings. 
- Not transmigration stories (see: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/16246/)
- Not time loop stories (see: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/10681/)
- Not second chances in modern society (see:  https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/10745/)... more>>

I'll start with a big recommendation for:
1. Metaworld chronicles - wonderful series with well developed characters, magic, monsters and dragons, all set to a really well explored alternate modern Earth fuelled by magi-tech. It's the best in the genre and you should try it out!
2. Selena's Reign - only around 20 chapters out so far, but they're really well done. Beautiful descriptions (though sometimes a bit verbose) and the best depictions of a late 18th century setting that I've seen in an online fantasy. Read this for the magical second chance messiah in a gritty, Louis XIV->Napoleon type time frame world.
3. The Calamity of a Reborn Witch - more of a shoujo take on things, it's filled with political plots and conspiracies of a cinderella type heroine in a rather dark fantasy world
4. Forgotten Conqueror (this was on hiatus for a long time but restarted on the author's site) <<less
