Be basked in the world of your delusions! Japanese romantic comedy novels to read that will never happen to you in real life...... more>>

If for some reason you did experience it in real life then, dang you're amazing! You must be blessed ( must have been troublesome)

And for those who didn't...seek comfort by reading these novels where your dreams takes on a whole different level! May you be blessed as soon as possible...jk!

( no ranks) #Romcom is an EXPLOSION! <<less

Just read it don’t hesitate( actually hesitate on some of them.)
Also, not in any particular order and take these with a grain of salt cuz it’s made by a 15 year old.... more>>

FYI some might not be fully focused on romance, but I still add it because if you're like me, even if its plot is like the plot return of mount hua sect, if it has even a tiny hint of romance in the first 50 or so chaps, I'll dig that sh*t out.

For all the short stories or oneshots just read, they’re short anyway, or read some review on it first.

These novels aren’t on NU, but they are still good 

Author’s POV (still good but got a bit wack at some parts, but it’s 800 chaps so that’s normal.)

Shadow s*ave (got kind of boring after first arc for me.)
I started to gain sentience in an eroge (it’s quite good and it’s a “bit” crazy, just a bit)

FYI my review’s ratings for NU are always low standards, so if I gave it like a 4, it’ll probably mean that it’s cliche but pretty enjoyable. And a 3 is like, it’s aight but I didn’t enjoy it that much and got bored easily at some parts. And 2 is don’t even, also I change my ratings and opinions quite often once I look back on it because when I am reading it I read for pure enjoyment and not with a critical view. Like if there’s a plot hole, I just skimp over it, it’s only when I look back on it then I see the flaws. <<less

In no particularly order. Some of the NU link are broken so you have to google it to be able to read the novel.... more>>

My list of best translate Japanese romance/harem novels.

No NTR bullshit. <<less

Just some romance novels that i enjoy and want to read. I personaly prefer stories without harem, so i made this. I made this list for myself, but everyone can view too. I hope this list could help anyone who saw this.... more>>

A few of them might have the equal amount of POV for the ML and FL.

English is not my first language. Sorry for my bad English, i hope it's still understandable. Some of these novels might have my opinion/note and some doesn't, mostly because i just don't know what to write. 

Some of these might not be heavily focused on romance/the romance progress is slow. Tell me if i put the wrong novel in this list, since i can't remember all of the details. <<less

Whether its sh*t or good novel i still read them in my free time to pass time i guess.... more>>

taking recommendation and read it myself might add to the list if its poggers <<less

No particular criteria except it has to be fluffy and sweet. Nothing will be excluded(ex: might have dense protags, harems, etc.) as long as it... more>> is sweet enough. That being said, if said bad elements(previous but also including things like low TL quality, rigid dialogue, etc.) detract too much to the point where it makes the story not feel fluffy/sweet enough then it won't be on this list. Exception to this rule is isekai cuz f*ck isekai. Anyways, prepare to die to sugar overdose. <<less

Romance with harem heroine, pure love, isekai romance, a little hardcore stuff and something like that

doja cat

not actually best list but all i remember that ive read. still best list. also now ive "ranked" stuff, up to the 2nd page now

Fluffy + Sweet

LN/WN that I enjoyed reading.

No description.

This rec list contains all the novels I have read and considered of high quality in one way or another. Pattern could be seen among the novels I've picked that is that these novels contains non-obnoxious MC, satisfying (to a certain extent) plot, good translation, focus mainly on MC and such. Though I highly rated these novels, there is no guarantee that this list will satisfy all the readers, that is because a good story is a story that provides what the readers wanted or needed. No YAOI/BL elements in the slightest. ... more>>

NB = There are novel series which I've only read their Manga/Manhwa adaptation, and not their novel version. They are noted with MANGA/MANHWA VERSE. Still, I can assure you that these series I've picked still excels in their manga/manhwa version. 

Other recommendations not on NU = Beware of Chicken (10/10), Forgotten Conqueror (?/10) Number One Under Heaven (8.9/10), TBATE (10/10), Skyrim: Dragonborn Within (15/10 absolutely fantastic, a must read for sure), Goddess of Ice; Reborn as Naruto’s twin sister (9.2/10), The Simulacrum (9.5/10), Life in Vain: Jobless Reincarnation (9.6/10), The Second Coming of Gluttony, the First of Vainglory (9.3/10), Redemption's Rose (9.5/10)

Websites for reading novels = Novelupdates, Royalroad, Webnovel, Scribblehub <<less

No description.

Idk what too put for the description LOL

The rank doesn't really define the quality.

Literally the WNs/LNs that I've been reading so far and next to be read. (Unavailability of notes means I have not started or finished it... more>> yet.) <<less

Those I liked, ones I loved, the junk food, and more!... more>>

For all those I wish to remember from my reading journey

Ones I think I have not read a sufficient amount of yet are not on here. Otherwise, I might just not like it

I might add some specially memorable ones even if I didn't enjoy them

Edit: I have stopped most of my activities in reading web novels as of late, so there may be very few updates to this list

Additional recommendations not found on Novel updates:

- Fold all the ruin flags in the remaining day: Well RTA record 24Hr <<less

Novels that avoid the typical jp “beta” protagonists

Making this 3 years after beginning to use this site, so I am missing a lot of things. (Especially the Cultivation ones…) Despite that everything... more>> here will be things I enjoyed reading! <<less
