Korean novels with Male Protagonist which have been adapted as a Manhwa. ... more>>

This list includes Novels of Shounen, Seinen, Yaoi, Shounen Ai, etc. Genre

I'll add more as I find them.  <<less

Novels that are at least good enough to past time. Admittedly, I prefer sub-romance and harem genre so there will be plenty of them here.

Hunter and dungeon stuff primarily but might have other things I’m waiting for updates for.

i put stuff here that i've finished reading

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

There are too many tabs on my school computer. I finally need a list so it's not too suspicious... and to lessen the lag.... more>>

I'll update this whenever I can/whenever I'm on the list/whenever I'm not busy in class...or when I stop reading the novel I'm currently reading.

At its current state, it is nowhere near how many I actually read/want to read. (The first few are my favorites.)

I decided to sort the novels as my new year's resolution..will I even do it? How would I sort it?

This list will be mainly fantasy with either no romance or no bl/gl. (Currently fixing my lists because I JUST discovered that the limit is 100 novels.)

I also realized I put quite a lot of unnecessary information into this list but I'll leave it because why not? <<less

Sharing several years of my reading experience.... more>>

I was slowly creating this list for about a year. When I've got nothing else to do I was gradually expanding it and that's the result.

***

To make it more descriptive and clarify some things I've put what I consider the main focus of the story under the 'Main Tags' line.

I've also added some comments to express what I thought about most novels that I've read.
As a bonus I've thrown out here some things that people look for or try to avoid like romance and mentioned similar titles that I've read myself.

***

Tags' explanation:

Mature:
FL - foul language, G - gore, E - ero elements.

Romance:

'No Romance' - nothing worth mentioning/mc is a loner, No Romance(?) - I haven't seen any, 'Romance' - only 1 heroine, Yanderes - self-explanatory, Harem - if MC is in CONFIRMED relationships with
several love interests, not a japanese useless one.

***

'My reading progress' line is a show of my 'sincerity'. At least I know what I'm talking about cause I've read it till cXXX.

Rating:

10/10 - Perfection (for me).

9/10 - Not 10/10 but pretty close.

8/10 - Something good/worth reading

7/10 - Readable

6/10 - Read with caution / Only 'Readable' under specific circumstances

***

P.s I've read a lot of novels (more than 200), so I've chosen more popular titles, or at least novels that I've liked more than others. So very few novels here can be considered questionable or 'hidden gems'. <<less

Fantasy action with little to no romance with a good plot and decent characters.

 Fiction and fantasy have allowed many of us to break the limits of reality and experience a lot of joy. Thank you to the authors, translators,... more>> and broader community for creating these novels. These are some of the novels that helped pick me up and distract me from the noise around me. <<less

Why fall in love when there is so much more to life?

The most common reason I drop a novel isn't that I hate but, but that I get bored; or that the translation isn't good enough.... more>> Also, even if I drop something I still try to read 50% of the available chapters for that novel before dropping it. The only exception to this is where the translation is of insufficient quality.  <<less

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
