A list of the novels that I remember reading and have enjoyed to some extent.... more>>

Only criteria for inclusion: Personal Enjoyment

Also pls remember average score for a novel is 2.5/5. That means that anything above 2.5/5 is above average. Above average is good.

Novels are not in any defined order. I am just placing them as I have added them.

Will add more novels with time          (current : 27/4/24) <<less

BxB romance that I loveeeee

Here are some stories i've enjoyed :)... more>>

No Bl or Gl though, not my cup of tea 

P.S Pls give me recommendation <<less

All of the descriptions are allegedly, I haven't read most of them. Mainly focused on completed novels. Only male protagonist. I hate anti-hero or Villain protagonist novels that have no morals so none of them will be in this list! If you have any other recommendations please comment them!... more>>

Novels from other websites:

Worm - Interesting dark fantasy superpower.

One Piece: Reborn as Enel - Hype transmigrates as a character with an amazing devil fruit in One Piece.

The Runesmith - Man with technological knowledge isekais into a fantasy world as the 4th son of a noble family. Cool sounding western written isekai

World Keeper - Isekais as the manager of a world, kingdom-building sounds cool.

Tree of Aeon - Really good kingdom city building western novel, being made into a book.

Life Hunter - Overpowered protagonist isekaied, seems interesting but the accelerated progression tag is worrying.

Harry Potter: Dimensional Wizard - Isekai into Harry Potter world, realises that other media must also exist. Wish fulfillment going into the world of various media worlds. Harem story. Could be good, or not.

Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor - Sounds interesting, non-cliche Xianxia progression novel. <<less

Or to rephrase: "Novels worth reading"... more>>

All of the novels have lots of translated chapters so that you don't have to worry about them ending after a day of reading

Novels are ranked roughly according to my enjoyment of the novel. Take the ranking with a grain of salt though as you would have a different opinion. <<less

There are too many novels with cliché romance and harems with annoyingly useless girls. Reading them gets extremely tiring. There are too few novels with absolutely no form of romance or harem. Here are some novels I've found to not have romance/harem or have an harem/romance theme that didn't affect the plot of the novel to the point of it being annoying. 

Feel free to recommend novels that fit the criteria, arigatou^o^

P. S. I haven't read all the novels in this list so I might not be accurate in judging them. And there are some I've read but didn't finish and the novel ended up having romance or harem elements in a later chapter, please feel free to correct me anytime you see that I wasn't accurate. Arigatou minna-san <<less

This is a list of the best translated cultivation style novels I've found. Stories from genres like Wuxia/Xianxia/Xuahuan/LitRPG are all qualified as long as they have some sort of constant power progression that characters deal with throughout the story.... more>>

Overall Considerations:

For a story to be included they must have a great prose, excellent translation, superior worldbuilding, and three dimensional side characters.

Personal Considerations:

I personally abhor evil/edgy/"anti-hero" mcs and so those will not be featured on this list. It's very easy to be selfish, immoral and evil. It's much more difficult to be kind, just and principled when the going gets tough so I find stories with main characters who have a code and stand by it the most interesting. MCs don't need to be paragon's of justice, but when confronted with difficult choices they must display some semblance of empathy and kindness in their actions.

I also love discussions of philosophy and morality and find their inclusion in the context of wuxia and xanxia worlds to be extremely interesting.

I like romance. I dislike harems, but if I have to make a choice I prefer harems to no romance.

I have a personal preference to reading male main characters.

Organization:

I've tried my best to order the list in by considering both general quality of the novel itself and the personal preference concepts I've listed above. I hope this list can help. <<less

These are the translated novels I find to be the best of the of the best. They're arranged in no particular order and have no... more>> genre limitation. The only requirements that I've placed on them are that they have great prose, excellent translations, superior worldbuilding, three dimensional side characters and most importantly a kind main character. <<less

Sequence is CN- JP- KR- Fluffy- (Comedy)- Exceptions- To-reads. Not ranked by number. 
My descriptions varies greatly from a gist, polished review, impressions, or explains key points.        ... more>>

[Flexible Preferences] 
A. Protags are somehow mostly male but I read both!- interesting, has compelling qualities, flawed with development
B. Entertaining, Distinct, & Creative
C. Steady premise, no TERRIBLE plot hole 
D. Romance: good execution, pacing, build-up, & evokes emotion; no bullsh!t drama & brain-dead denseness
E. Vital, relevant, fleshed-out characters
F. Comedic & Fun
G. Danger, Wars, Battles, Strategy, Tactics, Trials, Fights, Thriller, Suspense
H. Lore, Culture, Kingdom, Worldbuilding 
I. Political Intrigue, Schemes, Mind Games, Manipulation, Mystery
J.  Pure tragedies rarely - it hurts!
K. No BL/GL(yet?)
L. Can be R-18 
M. Polygamous-like IF great story | even if you're averse consider my recs. ;)

[Criteria]
1. These are (mostly) 4/5 stars in story, translation and enjoyment according to my flawed evaluation that is mainly 3/10 objective, 7/10 subjective.
2. I have perused the novels or adaptation before sharing my thoughts.
3. Writing must be consistent, coherent and engaging and the ending must at least not be sh!t. Clichés to a point are fine however it needs to be purposeful & executed well. 
4. I will keep adding books that are promising, satisfying, translated.  <<less

I've made this to keep track of those I'm currently reading. You can still use it as a reference though. I guarantee that what I'm reading is currently the cream of the crop of the current translation era. If you don't see your favorite novel, please feel free to comment and please relate it to my current list if possible. I'm also open for suggestions and I'll try to update the list as much as possible. Please be aware that this list composes of those I deem good or in my taste, so you might disagree with the few on the list.... more>>

Note: I remove the things I've completely read, so the list is very short. Also, the order is very relevant, though the top 5 usually swap position most of the time. <<less

Personal favourites, in no particular order.... more>>

Idk if I'm allowed to put this here but anything QI in this list? Aggregators lmao

All stuff I've read till the end and ranked by personal preference. The ones at the front are more accurate, the ones at the end are unsorted. ... more>>

My preference: Meandering slow-burn novels like Mao Ni's stuff get extra points. Harem/romance/face-slapping power fantasies get minus points. Completed novels get bonus points, and terrible endings get points knocked off. Also plus points for character building friends/family/enemies and down points for solo yolo.
