These are my favorite novels so far. The order of the novels entry is random.

Much like my list "Korean Action Novels" this one has only japanese originals. And it meets the following conditions:... more>>

Action, Adventure and Advance. The triple AAA that the following novels have in my opinion^^. Mystery is a plus and the rest are accesories. <<less

Continuation of general things I've read. Again, no particular order.

the best of the best fantasy novels when it comes to male protagonist getting teleported to another world or reincarnated in different body in another world.... more>>

I've been reading novels for about 6 years now , this list culminates that experience and in hopes to find like minded readers of the isekai genre. 

this list will include novels from japan , korea and china . <<less

It's probably the "I reincarnated into another world and am OP" type of story. Or maybe it's something more. Either way, I enjoyed it and I'm not a fan of stereotypical stories. ... more>>

I've tried to keep the list to novels that are more known as webnovels rather than published light novels. <<less

Different genre of jnovels

So if you guys are tired of waiting for the new chapters to the novels that you're currently reading, then why not try reading those that was completely translated already? <<less

I have collected the few stories with reasonable & moral characters and character development. In most of these stories, the powers  MCs have are earned... more>> not given. I have avoided harem tags like the plague, due to many cardboard cutout supporting characters. However, the few stories with harem tags listed actually have characters with at least 2D/3D personalities. almost all of these have a rating of 4+ as the quality(rating) is more important than the quantity(popularity). Incomplete stories can be pirated using nyaa.si, vn miedo, ect. <<less

Binge worthy novels that just suck you in. Try at your own risks.... more>>

Random order, don't pay attention to that. <<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.

One that I could re-read again;especially if I dont have any idea what to read next.

I have been reading novels in novelupdates for close to 4 years already and it is nice to have a place where i can share... more>> my experiences with everyone. These is my favorite novels so far. I can't say that i am a professional reader but I can assure you the quality of all the novel in these list. I hope you guys enjoy it ^^ <<less

This is a list of things I have read which I think are great from the perspective of 'quality of craft' & 'quality of story'. In general those will be great reads for everyone as well, but will less include 'because I like this' focused listings of other 'great so long as you like this' stories.... more>>

That said, there are only so many 'objectively great' stories, so farther down the list I will put caveats (etc.) with less 'full measure' stories- either 'just good', or 'great if you like this', etc. I moved all the anri-social protags to another list.

If you know of something I should add to this list, feel free to comment a suggestion or PM.

I have written quite a few reviews for most of these and other works- feel free to check them out, and vote them up if you find them helpful. Thanks! <<less

If I haven't dropped a novel after 500 chapters and still remember its name a month later, you'll find it here. It is arranged in no particular manner.

Don't just watch the anime this is epic stuff worth reading

Typical fantasy/second-chance usually. Was mostly KR, but I start reading more CN stuff. Rarely read romance-centric novels. Don't like specifically harems usu.... more>>

No description=TBD. Review-ish comments. May be slight spoilers but never something like xx dies. Most of the stuff I like/recommend are on the first page. I started getting lazy with updating rankings though.

List includes basically everything I've read before.

Other novels:

Birth of the Demonic Sword (C641)Good for like first 500-600 chapters. After there's a couple time skips, which I don't mind but events also just feel filler/boring. Also kind of feels a bit like a Reverend Insanity rip-off. MC has parts different enough but there's not enough meaningful character interactions (esp. later on)/inner monologue (for philosophical stuff) imo.

Author's POV - 4.5/5; C646; Good series inspired by Novel's Extra. Romance is handled much better imo.

Shadow s*ave- 2/5; Finished Vol 2. Vol1 was good. Vol2 felt like MC only ever interacted with the other MC and the side characters sort of just followed the party along without interacting/much presence. Also just didn't like the logic of vol2 so dropped.

Cultivation Online -3/5; C560; Enjoyable for 3/5 but the MC sort of just keeps levelling up without any impending threat so it feels kind of boring after the initial mystery of the world is lost.

I've reached the list cap so I might start tracking my reading list elsewhere. <<less
