title number #48 and up are new titles, still waiting for a few time for the global rating to settle before sorting it based on the rating. <<less

I really like ✓unique (world building/game rule/setting), ✓logical development, ✓solid plot, ✓all character in the novel have a life of their own that not serve for the purpose of the plot and finally a ✓logical MC. If there are at least two of these qualities, LINNIL APPROVE!!... more>>

I've reached the max 100 novels per list so I will start removing unfinished dropped novels so that I can add regularly-updated novels. I might just put the removed novels in the comments so I can go back to them. <<less

I will only include the one's that made me stick through thick and thin. Mostly no romance, if it's harem then you should expect that the MC is just using them for greater benefits. I don't like DUmb characters so you should also expect that most of the Male leads here or Female leads are smart or sharp. half of my list also include survival and teaches you some bitter reality lesson unlike those cliche novels that makes you scared or dream about nonsense fantasy stuffs.... more>>

I JUST RANDOMLY PLACE THE NOVELS AND I WON'T RANK IT. ( for me, they're all the best on their own way and techniques) 

[disclaimer: as I said, ‘mostly’ no romance- what I meant is in the survival stories, and if the protagonist is a man. But if the protagonist is a girl, they’ll be really romance. Book like that (top tier books with Female Mc w/ no romance) are very rare. I myself having some troubles finding them.] <<less

Just a compilation of some of my favorite KR novels... more>>

I am still adding some more novels in the list as I just added the ones I remember ^^ <<less

Welcome one, welcome all! We got yanderes galore over here - possessive ones, obsessive ones, clingy ones, two-faced ones, (blood)thirsty ones, and even the bat-sh*t crazy psychos. Do you like 'em spicy or sweet? Tell ya what, I'll even throw in a tragic backstory and a sprinkle of angst, just for you. *wink**wink*... more>>

Like what you see, you can take them home! But be careful, they're very hard to tame~

[Strict no returns, refunds, or exchanges policy. All sales are final. Waiver required. We are not liable for any injury, death, confinement, or torture resulting from the adoption of your yandere.] <<less

Mainly strong female characters with brains, beautiful leads, power play or intrigue, good plot and world building. I do have soft spots for handsome men... more>> and handsome female leads. Sometimes with a dash of fantasy, but almost all the time historical. Not in any order. <<less
