*please recommended more like this to me*

Korean Novels about men who have either reincarnated, got a second chance, or transmigrated, woke up in another body, into noble sons, side-characters, villains, or extras. They sometimes have animal companions, and definitely have loyal followers.  <<less

Even if he pretend he is not! ... more>>

Hmm... I hope I'm not delusional... <<less

Novels where the MC is reincarnated/ transmigrated/possessed/transported into a Dating Sim/Novel/Game world as a character or something similar to that.... more>>

I said that, but some of the MCs can actually be the original inhabitant of that world (not reincarnated/transmigrated/possessed).

Tell me if i put the wrong novels in this list, since i don't remember all of the details of these novels/ i haven't read some of them. You can also suggest other novels that might fit this list too.

Sorry for the bad English.
This is a non-harem and non-BL list, since i'm not really interested in those genres. <<less

Stories with a close friendship/relationship between two male characters that is not romantic in nature.

this is mostly just male mc without female leads like "love interests" or harems :)... more>>

Korean Novels #1 - #25
Chinese Novels #26 - #53
Japanese Novels #54 - #70

* There might be some s*xual tensions towards side characters but mostly it views the improvement of the main characters
* Novels like this just focus on the plot and battle towards mc's main goal and shenanigans but most of the novels here are my male protagonist 'to be read' and I hope you guys find something that suits your tastes <3 so yeah happy reading ^^)/ <<less

No description.

these novels aren't ranked. all are good and i recommend all of these for you guys to read. there's no (or some may have a little) romance here,  but no harem. ... more>>

A collection for my sadistic side lol—the title of the list basically sums up what's listed. ... more>>

ORDER DOES NOT CORRELATE TO MY SPECIFIC THOUGHTS TOWARD THE BOOK!

SSMC = Self-Sacrificing MC

Misunderstandings = MS  <<less

Here's a list of novels you might enjoy if you, like me, want to read some good stories that don't force an unnecessary & underdeveloped romance subplot where it isn't needed.... more>>

So these stories will have minimal to no romance, and I despise the harem trope in general. On the other hand, I'm a sucker for good bromance/brotherhood/friendship/found family stories. I also won't add any series to the list that I haven't personally read.

I decided to create this list because I've seen many similar 'no romance' lists on the site from which I've gotten many great recommendations to the point they have now become my go-to sources for new novels.

- - - - - - - - - - -

I'll be trying to organize the list based on how good I personally think the books are, but I'm only really certain about the first 4 being my favorites, the list then gets quite ambiguous, but I personally really like everything on the first page.

In the descriptions, I'll include how many chapters of the series I have read as well as how much romance there has been up until where I've read, as well as additional thoughts/opinions/warnings that I might have about the series.

I'll try to update the list whenever I find another good series to add. If you know of any series you think I'd like based on my list I'm more than open to suggestions! 

UPDATED JAN 1ST: Added 'The Nebula's Civilization' to the list. <<less

Just stuff I liked with no romance (since that stuff annoys me, esp w/ op mc) - romantic subplot = removal
- some unread + under review ,,, going to update when I’m free lol... more>>

Mostly stuff like transmigration / new body possession / traveling back to past

While looking at the selection you may realize that I have way too much time on my hands, which causes my friends to have a lot of questions about me, ha ha ha... I'm probably fine...probably...... more>>

Feel free to give recommendations in the comments!

Also, this is the continuation of this list called, "BL Medieval/Western Fantasy #2" (incredibly original, right?): https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/62564/?ft=yes

(cause I ran out of space in this one <3) <<less

A list I would've loved to have when I first started reading WNs. Most of these are beginner novels, mix of genres, and not ranked.... more>>

I haven't gotten to the end and most are still being translated, but they're definitely more plot-focused. If it turns out there's romance in one, I'll just remove it :shrug: <<less

(Mostly) no harem no BL, male lead on fantasy novel setting with his over protective companions.... more>>

***
Some is tagged Yaoi/Shonen Ai. BUT their relationship is mainly bromance, dense MC, super slow romance and barely had any explicit contents. Save read for those who doesn't like BL, like me.

Note: Some with yaoi tag  still ongoing, I'll update if it's bearable to read or not. <<less

No description.

Just bromance, boys love,and Shounen-ai . This is not the place for anti gei people!!! I WILL ALWAYS ADD NEW NOVEL IF I FOUND ANOTHER... more>> ONE,SO DON'T MISS IT!! And check my other lists ♡(˃͈ દ ˂͈ ༶ ) <<less

A compilation of my favorites (CN, JP, KR) in alphabetical order.
*read the comments for additional recommendations (original novels)
*will update when I find and read new interesting ones <<less

These are the Novels that caught my attention and most of them are still haven't been read yet. (taking time to read one by one). Except... more>> for the novels that I put comments the rest are not ranked just random order. There are various genres here but mostly in this list are reincarnated, transmigrated, weak to strong. Waiting for more chapters since I can't handle cliffhanging. <<less

I'm gonna sort this list from gaeey-est to straight-est/ "brotherhood" level lol (except of course those novels which I haven't read yet, just recommended by many . I will just put them on the bottom, in accordance with their NU ratings) - you may also recommend some below if I ever missed one or anything. This is all for our quest on finding these types of novels anyway lmao.... more>>

.

EDIT: On second thought, I won't put the ships anymore cuz some readers may put off reading it because they're spoiled as to who to focus on or that they're already suggested as to which relationships between 'bros' to invest on so yeaahh~~ Just gonna put some of my thoughts and its synopsis instead.  <<less

(just for organization)... more>>

stories that mainly follow an MC who's 'too busy for romance'- zero romance plot (almost)- majority of them are reincarnation stories, and I found more male-leading stories that fit the requirements. <<less

Exactly as the name says; this is a collection of shamelessly terrible main cast characters. Mentions of what tr*sh can be found within in the descriptions.... more>>

(Please note that the use of language such as “tr*sh”, “scum” and “slag” are meant in a positive way, unless otherwise stated.) <<less

Vomiting blood? Overworking yourself? Self injury? Always choosing the self sacrificial route as plan A? Misunderstanding? Of course.... more>>

Anyways, here's a compilation.

PS: Self sacrifice that I mean in this list doesn't necessary mean it's for other people. Can be MC just constantly putting themselves at risk. <<less
