I've ranked these based on the ones I've enjoyed the most considering the plot and possessiveness of the male lead by a 2:1 ratio ~

Only straight romances 

(I have another list only for BL)

Based on my personal scale of yandere intensity.... more>>

NOTE: THE RATING IS NOT A RATING OF THE NOVEL, ONLY THE INTENSITY OF THE YANDERE. 

This list includes all the books I think are solid 7+/10 and very intense male yanderes. BL included. Most novels are completed. Spoilers beware! 

The Scale:

1: All bark no bite

7: Glaring red flags, but red is my favourite colour. 

9: Perfect intensity. The most intense just below abusive imo. 

10: My friend, if you don't get out of there, imma call 911 to drag you out of there. Somebody get a restraining order pls im begging.

Please note: These are intense yanderes, there will be toxic and abusive relationships. Please read the tags for TWs. <<less

THIS HAS NOW BEEN CHANGED TO SHOUJO/JOSEI ONLY. I HAVE A SEPARATE LIST FOR BL LIGHT NOVELS... more>>

Collection of light novels with Male Yanderes who are crazy for the main character (Shoujo / Josei). 

###

There is now a separate list for Male Yanderes in BL novels

###

Currently in no order - WIP

Categories:

Male Yandere Male Lead - An important character (usually the ML) is yandere

Male Yandere Side Character - The yandere is only a supporting character and/or may only appear for a short part of the story. If the novel doesn't have a yandere tag at all then it probably means the yandere plays a very minor role.

Possessive Male Lead - Perhaps not quite a yandere but does show signs of possessiveness

Not Enough Chapters - Too early in the novel to tell / character hasn't demonstrated yandere traits yet but it's tagged under Male Yandere <<less

Where MC is a girl. Some maybe 1v1 and some not, and some maybe more mature and yandere-ish than others

Adding some novels as I go and read more! I only add here completed novels, unless I see one that's really good or its in hiatus with no hope

These are QTs that I've read and liked and in my opinion (lmao) i have good tastes. Click on the story for their actual summary because what you'll see in their descriptions here are my thoughts and intro of the story. I tried hard not to spoil anything though

I update this everytime I read something I like so feel free to follow

If you have any suggestions, feel free to comment at the end

P.S. I also have another one of these that's BL <<less

I intended to make this list to compile novels I liked that has Strong Female Leads but I also like Powerful Male Leads so added that as well hehe.... more>>

By Strong Female Lead, I don't mean what most thought of, like the MC having advantages since she knows the plot of the story reincarnated in, that's not strong that just her being in the lead since she know what's gonna happen. By strong I mean, either physically or mentally strong. A pretty vague answer but in short here are novels with Main Characters that I deem strong.
Beware that I prioritize the characters here rather than the plots so you may agree or disagree with my selection, but otherwise, these are all just suggestions for people who doesn't know what to read next.

Characters ; 10 - unique, has their own personalities | 8 to 9 - not common or uncommon, but decent nonetheless | 5 to 7 - a character on their own, make sense but also doesn't, not so detailed or well written.

Plot ; 10 - unique and interesting | 8 to 9 - not common or uncommon, but tolerable enough to read | 5 to 7 - written solely for the main characters to shine, not so detailed or well written. <<less

We all have a guilty pleasure for tr*shy novels (or at least most of us). These are tr*shy novels that are good. There is a difference between tr*shy tr*sh and good tr*sh. Good tr*sh are novels that are cliché, tropey, and brainless with little character development, world building, and littered with Mary Sues and Gary Sues. However despite all their flaws, they still catch your attention and are addicting reads. The genres are varied but I do have a preference towards romance. From what I remember, none of these novels are terribly problematic. Don't think too much when you read these, just read and have fun. So come, come find a brainless read here! I hope... more>> you find a novel you will enjoy! 

*I tried sorting it into order of what I enjoyed the most at first, but then it got harder to rank them, so I gave up (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ*

*Also there is a hierarchy within good tr*shy novels, so some novels are like high quality tr*sh, Michelin star tr*sh.* <<less

Novels with either plain obsessive love or twisted relationships. Keep in mind that these are all my personal ratings so it may not be the same for you but still, take it as a reference if you're unsure of what to read next. ... more>>

Yandere Levels ; 10 - borderline obsessive w/ actual reasons   ▎8 to 9 - definitely obsessive but not too much  ▎5 to 7 - obsessiveness that came out of no where (aka just bcuz fl's nice to ml etc.)

Plot ; 10 - interesting and unique  ▎8 to 9 - decent / common but tolerable  ▎5 to 7 - plain and usual / not so surprising  <<less

Hodge podge of novels I enjoyed over my long long reading journey. Reading taste is all over the place.

Chinese romance webnovels with obsessive possessive and maybe yandere male leads. Including a few scum men who deserve face slapping - even if they play the role of being the novel world's ML. ... more>>

Enjoy! <<less

Novels with FL that have systems.
