Stories where a mysterious system appears and affects the lives of one or many people on Earth in no particular order. The story has to take place on Earth or a modified version of Earth to count. ... more>>

Every time I visit the front page of NU and I see a long title for a JP WN, I know its story and characters are going to be shallow and a waste of my time . I've been sick of the infinite number of the "fantasy RPG" Japanese WNs out there and Chinese WNs that drag on for thousands of chapters. Korean novels tend to be better in that respect by having a unique story and being easy to read without seeing half the chapter used up to describe insignificant details. ... more>>

Yeah there's still some isekai novels here but at least it's going to have good progression and character growth. <<less

Sturgeon's law: 99% of everything is terrible.... more>>

I know many people say that there are no good novels on this site, and it oftens feels like the top lists are filled with overpowered MC's, undeveloped harems, 2D characters, and lacking plots.

There are some novels that stand out, however, whether that be for their plots, characters, or translations.

This is a list for my personal 1%. It is ranked in order. <<less

What I think are pretty good novels to read.

A list from the best novel, I found. They cover a pretty large pool of genre. They mostly go with  action, harem, male proto &... more>> ''romance''. <<less

I'd rather read these novels when they update than sleep... more>>

#49 - #57 are short stories/one-shot novels <<less

Cooking, farming, business management and the likes. Might be boring for some.

Disclaimer: Some of these novels are extremely cliche, loved, and hated on. Aka, you DON'T have to like all of them, or even any of them really. These are just some of the more well-know novels that, I believe, are all worth checking out (lol mainly because of the amount of reads and reviews they have ;P). And walp, that's kinda the whole point of this list >.>... more>>

This list introduces the various popular/common/cliche tropes and genres of the translated novels community. I just want to point out the fact that this list is supposed to cover a wide range of genres and audiences. It doesn't cover everything, but I think most of them are here. I enjoyed these, and I think it's a good place to start reading from. (I tried to have novels for both male/female preferences). While some of these novels may be long, that does not mean you have to finish the entire thing -_- , if you enjoy it, good, keep on reading! If you don't enjoy it, then stop, no one's forcing you to continue.

The list is in no particular order, although I did try to put them into categories ... that kinda worked, ish. Some of these novels are officially licensed, so you may have to get the rest of the chapters from other sources (Google and *cough* aggregate websites *cough*).

Pls don't hate Orz. When I was first introduced to translated novels, everything seemed pretty good to me T^T.  <<less

Small list of the stories I've found to be compelling even if flawed due to at the very least getting the basics right if not excelling in one aspect. (world building, character growth, character development, action, humor, etc.)... more>>

Quoting a user from the discord: 
"The best stories with a super overpowered protagonist don't rely on combat to be the motivating force for plot progression. 
It's interpersonal relationships, it's a time limit on how long they have to reach a goal, it's severely limiting factor on their powers, any number of other things. 
Making a story about a super overpowered protagonist, and then making every single piece of conflict in the story based around fighting severely drags a story down."

I've omitted any stories hosted only on webnovel/Qidian.

Work in progress, in no particular order. <<less

My favorite ML/MC <3

PS: There are some novels here that I haven't read, so I don't know if they are good or not.  <<less

These novels don't have too much excitement, but they are fun in their own ways. ... more>>

Note: a lot will have some fantasy elements (being reborn, getting second chances or having systems). 

Note 2: the list is in no particular order.

Note 3: I only add novels that I personally read and enjoyed. If there are sugestions for more novels, do remind me in the comment section. Each novel has to have at least enough chapters to be able to enjoy reading it for one evening. <<less

This list is composed of all the stories that I have enjoyed reading but did not make the cut for my very detailed  'Fun Reads and Good Reads' recommendation list. This list also contains a variety of different types of stories and there is no real number ranking. Take a look and see what might suit your taste. ... more>>

Stories may be added or removed as I see fit. <<less

Wait 

If you guys are looking to have a 'swell' time, then just look at my list. It mostly has Japanese and Korean light novels as you can see from the list. But, don't let that discourage you. I add any books i have read personally or just books that have good ratings and what not. But, do not rely on the ratings alone. I hope you find something that piques your interest while going through my list and hope you have a happy time! Good day :3... more>>

(BTW the ones with the comments are the ones I've read and I will always be objective with the actual rating! :D) <<less

S tier - absolute masterpiece ... more>>

A tier - excellent

B tier - really good

All of the novels have enough chapters, have something special and are my favourites, therefore there are no bad novels here.

Of course this is purely my opinion. <<less
