After the first list exeeded  100 Novels I created a second list with Female MCs (japanese).

Novels which are still in MTL (high-readability, guaranteed minimum brain cell mortality) and not yet translated:... more>>

- Bulgarian Empire (same author of Holy Roman Empire)
- Holy Roman Empire (60 chapters translated, the rest just go to MTL, high quality MTL is the reason translators didn't bother to translate it in the first place)
- Rise of Rurik (thank you Zurdonx for recommendation)
(More will be updated later) <<less

Generally stuff I find “good”

A list of novels with women/girls who know what they want, how to get it, and stand up for themselves. ... more>>

Note: the novels in this list are not in any particular order! My favorites are noted with two asterisks (**)! <<less

The good stuff

Female Protagonists. Romance. Comedy. Dislike yandere obsessive ml. Aversion to iceblocks. 

No description.

For recommending female protagonists that don't immediately lower their IQ and EQ when a (ML) man enters the picture. Strong is also used somewhat lightly. This recommendation list will be more geared towards female leads who's actions/words are pivotal in the story. Due to the landscape of light novels with female protagonists, this list will not be completely romance free, but stories recommended will either be slow romance or the story itself will not pivot around the male lead's actions/story.... more>>

Order added as I recall them. Some I haven't read in a while so my thoughts aren't necessarily accurate. If you have a recommendation, please leave a comment of what I should try out! <<less

A really good kingdom building book isn't really about simple making bigger buildings. It's about improving the lives of the people the MC cares about... more>> around them and in doing so improving a nation. There's this heart felt way of doing it so that's what I want out of these books. Some of them do have harems but the female characters are done in such a way that they are fully develop human beings and it's classy or I just enjoyed it. It's really hard to find kingdom or development books like that in this space so I wanted to highlight them when I found it. <<less

Stories of people focussed on creating and/or maintaining a kingdom or any industry (usually businesses). Most often they become influencial.... more>>

 Some may have romance, others it's not a focus at all. <<less

A list containing novels with female mc's.

Farming, family raising, and face slapping.... more>>

Been looking at my rec list and realize I never made a list for the three Fs.

Funny how many of these are from my "Complete and Will Recommend" list. <<less

Stuff I really liked, and would support. Depending on that month's budget.... more>>

Not in any particular order. All Japanese, because I haven't yet looked into Chinese or Korean stuff. One foreign culture at a time.  Many genres, ranging from profound to banal, from cute and fluffy to full-on chuuni.

List created in May 2024, probably won't bother to remove titles if and when they're licensed. Also, not comprehensive or definitive. <<less
