Captivating storytellings. 

When the protagonist is an unfaithful loser, do you have the urge to transmigrate into the novel to give him a good beating? If so, I present to you a list of novels I enjoyed with an overpowered male protagonist and no harem. Featuring:... more>>

- overpowered protagonist
- no harem, preferably no romance
- loner, antihero, or evil protagonist (not a guarantee) <<less

A list of books I have started but have not finished for one reason or another ... Just a place to bookmark ^^ Mainly gaming/skills... more>> gaining/level up novels. <<less

Short list of novels that I wish to check up with daily.

Primarily Career/Shop/Kingdom Development, but there also could be some novels that I like. Most of these novels do not have romance or harem tag as I am not a big fan of these in novels that aren't primarily written as romance.... more>>

I now have a part 2! <<less

Ongoing novels, most of them are updated regularly, though it may not reflect on novelupdates status. You can find them on other sites (eg.webnovel). Please... more>> read on the translators' site to support them. <<less

Novels where the MC creates Systems to power/manage their minions/followers and mostly stays behind the scene and let their minions/followers do most of the hard work... more>> or face the problems for them. <<less

My favorite interesting novel apart from love-related novels as main points, there other theme like war, hero etc (I'll put system-related novels here as well)... more>>

If you want to find other novel besides this category, there are another recommend list : BL or BG novel. (I even made list about father mission novels hahahah) <<less

....

i like them for very specific reasons. (i often edit my reviews/switch orders, as a heads up)

Let's stockpile some chapters first before reading~

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

Novels that I’ve read and enjoyed, exclusively for brain dead readers. I read without using my brain so take it with a grain of salt.... more>>

>>> Feel free to recommend me novels in the comment section below, so after I'm back I know what to binge read and give my thoughts on it.... more>>

One of the easiest to tell a novel is a 'Game Elements' is if it has a GAME SYSTEM included - most notable of it being part of the MC. Another one is that the Protagonist got transported INTO a Game World/Fantasy World - most notable are ISEKAI's.

HUGE DISCLAIMER: I only include novels that have Game Elements as mentioned BUT ALSO that I have already read from a quite decent amount of chapters to finished reading. Though do not fret for I would accept and feel feel to recommend novels to me and If possible tell me about it.

NOTES: I have tried my best to rank them based on the depth of the world/lore of the novel and it's writing. Every tier (namely Great -> Amazing -> Excellent) have a sub-tier with 1 (+) being the lowest and (+++) being the highest. I would like to say that it is inevitable that there would be a novel being in the same tier and sub-tier - that you would think isn't even on par in terms of quality. Hence why If you could tell why that specific novel about why it deserves to either to go up or down at the ranking - then I would thank you for your time telling me your point. Novels with no tiers can be only one thing - They could have been good.

PS: I seem to have underestimated the sheer amount of Novels with Game Elements... also I'm not expert in identifying Alignments <<less

That are all novels that I read till the last chapter at that point. The higher ranked the better, at least in my opinion...... more>>

Part 2: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/57754/?ft=yes <<less

Nah f*ck harem and cluster f*cks, sure I got 2-5 sh*t harems in my list, but none of em got the f*cking ass polygamy tag. Prefere character driven novels, master minds and badsh*t crazy dudes. Good romance, with women with brain instead of a platonic big ass and the character traits of a tr*shcan, combined with action is good sh*t as well, but u wont see any novel without Action. And hell nah I have to read a story about a guy who is that heroic that he doesnt even take a shit.  Grey character are best character.... more>>

This is the stories that I like, you can read it if you want but I warn you, they are wholesome but some of them are tragedies that's why even if you are fulfilled and the ending is so good you will be frustrated because there are no more chapters...... more>>

Anyway don't mind the descriptions down there ↓. I'm a role player in Rpg games and gaming community that it even affect me in real life....

Oh there's no harem here, I'm not really fond of that genre.

I still have so many to recommend but still finding them.

- No Ranking. <<less

Brotherhood, sisterhood, familyhood, funnyhood, peoplehood, hood.... more>>

Basically fun stories where MC has a friend or a group of friends who go along the story with him/her. My definition of fun is power fantasy and comedy, but I tried to include exciting books from all genre's and audiences. <<less

A list about Novels where the Main character (or a System) creates a Virtual Reality Game in Another World and Players from Earth play it. Also includes Novels that have a similar theme. ... more>>

I will add more Novels if I find new ones, but it might take a while for me to find them <<less
