Just some novels I've read. My expectation for novels aren't that high and the ratings below are just my own opinion. But at least I've read through close to the entire novel or latest chapter (as of the last updated) before giving my thoughts. Last updated: 16/10/2023... more>>

Format for the remarks below:

THE TITLE

The best of best isekais, IMO

Novels which have a large amount of girls (>10). I have seen only one list of this type so I thought why not make one myself. I will only mention novels that are not on that list. Keep in mind that not all novels like this are good. Rating will be purely based on my enjoyment of that novel so take it with a grain of salt.... more>>

No yaoi or reverse harem <<less

a

I believe reading serves different purpose for everyone yet there's so many people who are just biased against harem novels, making it hard to get good grasp on how the novel is from the mixed reviews.... more>>

So I make this list in hope that it can hopefully help someone find the novel he wants. The reviews may not be so good but hey at least they will be consistent, even if bad. Also, the order is by the novels I remember and I'll try to add only ones I remember but some I may not remember too clearly since it's been so long :P <<less

All novels that I did not put in my other list/belongs in here. I enjoyed most of them as I definitely did read enough chapters to add these here.... more>>

Though  these reasons are not simply negative though as some good novels are here ---- reasons these may be here:

(a) Dropped because not good enough, not to my taste, too boring, was mistaken of the story, or I enjoyed them without thinking of the quality itself (b) Not bad, but reading-on-hold for now, (c) Hiatus, Stopped novels (d) Enjoyed and read but not good enough (e) Locked behind paywall so I put aside for now because I'm paying for other things (e) Not translated yet or only read the start so I have initial impressions (which may be neutral or has some negative in it, for example: Dungeon defense WN as I inevitably get somewhat disappointed it isn't more like the LN)

You want a main character that summons a lot? Well this list is for you!... more>>

Note: NO BL, NO SHOUJO. There is generally romance, could be 1 to 1, could also be harem. No particular order. <<less

For the novels that don't just expose endless descriptors, but also have a clever and well thought out story to tell. Whether it be tragic grinds that test your limits or joyful romps that celebrate life, these novels are things that I consider fulfilling reads from cover to cover. The novels that I unironically think are well written.... more>>

I have a bit of a hard on for Korean Novels in particular. It's just because of the stylistic choices these authors make. If Chinese Novels are about blood-thirsty, cruel, never-ending, arrogant, one-sided and shallow stories; and Japanese Novels are about weak-willed, nonsensical, piddling constantly hesitant stories; then Korean Novels are a different beast all together.

There are also novels that I REALLY loved reading but have no entries on this site. These novels are *legally* hosted on WebNovel and elsewhere. I will list the novels that struck me as abnormally good here in the description.

Reincarnated with the Strongest System

Divine Emperor of Death

Villain Cultivator

God of Tricksters

Tyranny of Steel

The Beginning After the End

Vile Evil Hides Under the Veil

Why Should I Stop Being a Villain

Supreme Magus

Rupegia

The Simulacrum

Worth the Candle

Shadow s*ave

Dimensional Descent

Sword God in a World of Magic

Jackal Among Snakes

The Bleak Walker <<less

List of novels I've come across, as far as I could remember, in no particular order(Wish I did this when I first started reading novels so I could list everything I've dropped/loved)... more>>

Note: This isn't really a recommendation list. As mentioned in the title, I'll only mention if it's good or bad with no particular explanation because this list is mostly for me... and that I most probably forgot the details on the novels listed here lmfao. 

Most of the "On hold" are novels that has something I don't like(petty or not... well, mostly petty since I'm petty) which makes me stop reading, but put on hold in case I want to read it again(is what I had in mind). It just accumulated because whenever I try to continue to read some it just makes me remember why I put it on hold in the first place and stop reading it entirely, but still have enough hope to not drop it.

Not on NU:

Teaching Heroes Might and Magic (Wanna read) (Hiatus)

I Don't Want To Court Death (Ch. 72) (Good) (Hiatus)

Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (Ch. 255) (On hold) (Good) 

Abyssal Lord of the Magi World (Ch 105) (Dropped, prophecy bs)

Unnamed god (Ch. 168) (On hold)

Immortal's wine store (Vol. 1 Ch. 131) (On hold)

Inexorable chaos (Ch. 100) (On hold)

Dual cultivation (Ch. 725) (On hold)

Supreme magus (Ch. 32) (On hold) <<less

Never judge a book by its harem tag...... more>>

Some novels that are not available in Novelupdates

- My Three Wives Are Beautiful Vampires.

- Dual Cultivation

- Cultivation Online <<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
