Part 2: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/64452/... more>>

Most of the novels I read have complete proper translations so if the red completed tag isn't there, that means there is a quality translation somewhere on the internet, it just isn't linked here in NU for REASONS. 

So just search it up because I'm too lazy to edit every novel description QAQ (maybe I will still eventually do that in the future tho). 

I will also try my best to indicate those I MTLed, but they should all be with many chapters released already (maybe some are even completed now bcs a few of these I read a long time ago), I just google translated the last 15 chapters or so. 

Hope I help some of you find good novels to read. In alphabetical order for now, will sort later~ <<less

My favorite cultivation/magic novels. romance usually is pretty late or as a subplot.... more>>

The ones with male MC have no harem.

The ones with female MC are ACTUALLY READABLE.
--> there is no specific order in the rankings (Although I tried to put some general order as much as possible)  <-- <<less

This is a list of all the novels that I have read with a female protagonist. Most of them have romance. Everything on this list has a happy ending of course. Some are more slice of life and some are very dramatic, but in the end these novels all left a good impression on me.... more>>

Not all the novels on this list are equally good. Some are okay, some are good, some are loved a lot. Nevertheless, I managed to complete them, so that means they're all readable.

For novels that are my absolute favourites which are those that I will reread many times, I will mark them with a "Best-Loved" award.

Some may get a "Honorable Mention" if they don't quite make it to Best-Loved, but they do stand out from the rest.

I will try my best to leave my impression of the novel in the comments. For some novels I will only say it's an enjoyable read which means for some reason or another they don't make the Best-Loved or Honorable Mentions list.

Acronyms I use often include FL aka female lead (also MC aka main character) and ML aka male lead. <<less

Cleanse yourself of overbearing CEOs, obsessive yanderes, cold and low EQ snobs, insidious black bellies, mu*derous tyrants, and needy man children, and embrace the beauty... more>> that is the firm but fair, sweet, kind, healing and gentle male leads. On this list we stan men whom are not just excellent boyfriends but excellent men in general. I tried to only include MLs that were sweet and considerate to the FLs all the way through (no midway personality changes, no tsundere tendencies, etc.).  <<less

Ancient trope of transmigrated female leads. Can be a bit fantasy-ish in genre, or a bit further to revolutionary age. Magical. Josei. Please heed ratings,... more>> as this list also include smut (but good ones). <<less

Ended up falling by mistake into the world of cultivation's cauldron. Didn't gain any superpowers sadly, just a good old mundane high from it. Particularly for cultivation novels with a female MC. Looking for more.... more>>

Hey there! Are you in for some novels where fate causes mischief in the face of our various MCs?? Well~  you’re in the right place! =^o^ As I, your ‘one of the many readers’ humbly present to you my selection of novels that left the most impression on me regarding the tags 'transmigration', 'reincarnation', 'world hopping', and 'transported to another world' ^w^=

My favourites are at the forefront of the list whilst the ones at the back are up for you readers to determine~

Happy reading! =>o^ / ~ <<less

We all know that some novels when MTL'ed can kill a few of your brain cells,  but here are some that I'll willingly sacrifice them... more>> for.   <<less

These are romance novels with various kinds of varieties that I have read and have not read that I find interesting and happen to have the urge to share it to you guys just bc I find it a waste to haggle all of these treasures for myself. ... more>>

The novels you're gonna be seeing here are of course, romance novels, that are straight and are either realistic, fluffy, no dog-blood drama and 109876 chapters spent to resolve misunderstandings, no 5 men chasing after the protagonist, no male lead with 1000 concubines, makes sense to at least at the bear minimum, light-hearted, or some philosophical really deep stuff(though rarely). But mostly, it's gonna be more about fluff, light-hearted and more focused on romance.

Found out there's a limit on how much you could add on the list so... I'm gonna be making a Recommendation list no. 2!

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
