Upd. May 2023: Latest worthy addition: Fushisha no Deshi (Disciple of the Lich). ... more>>

Upd.:  I encountered several novels that blew up my top ranks in 2022.

I have a specific taste for Isekai novels, and I'm able to tolerate many things and sometimes even issues with the plot, world building and flatness of characters. But what I can say about this list you're about to witness, is that I'm positively able to re-read each and every of this novels, given the time.

In some cases, like Wortenia Senki and Hachinan Tte, I read both WN and LN, but I don't think it's needed to bother adding both versions to this list.

P.S.: While the list isn't fully complete, I'm starting slowly to add my biased comments for you to see.

P.P.S.: My memory is good, but I can still miss your favourite novel, if you think I did (I'm mostly talking about Isekai stuff), feel free to leave comment under the List. Most definitely I'll reply and if I didn't miss it for a reason, I'll add it (at least into my reading list, hehe). <<less

Chu Feng who you ask me? Don't worry, just read Martial God Asura for about 1000 chapters or so and you will be familiar with... more>> him inside out. He is currently trapped in a bad novel right now, but imagine what will happen if he transmigrated into another novel's MC with all his power intact, and of course, without that pesky third-wheel companion of his! <<less

Isekai novels with male protagonists without the harem trope. Books preferably without age gaps ot in*est of any kind.

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

A comprehensive list of novels I’ve read including, but not limited to: dropped series, BL, smut, good reads, etc. This is my personal opinion and does not always reflect the actual reception or rating of the novel. Listed in no particular order.... more>>

Personal Recommendation Level:

5 — You have to read it!!

4 — Satisfactory

3 — meh 

2 — not my tea

1 — I can’t... <<less

Ever get tired of novels where the MC is always running around beating up bad guys? If you sometimes just want a relaxing read where fighting isn't the focus of the novel, then this list is for you!... more>>

*Note: While fighting isn't the focus, it doesn't mean that it is not present at all.  <<less

Anything I find interesting, whether it’s tr*shy OP isekai, gamer-type stories or even more, I’ll collect them to read and enjoy in my free time.

All of the descriptions are allegedly, I haven't read most of them. Mainly focused on completed novels. Only male protagonist. I hate anti-hero or Villain protagonist novels that have no morals so none of them will be in this list! If you have any other recommendations please comment them!... more>>

Novels from other websites:

Worm - Interesting dark fantasy superpower.

One Piece: Reborn as Enel - Hype transmigrates as a character with an amazing devil fruit in One Piece.

The Runesmith - Man with technological knowledge isekais into a fantasy world as the 4th son of a noble family. Cool sounding western written isekai

World Keeper - Isekais as the manager of a world, kingdom-building sounds cool.

Tree of Aeon - Really good kingdom city building western novel, being made into a book.

Life Hunter - Overpowered protagonist isekaied, seems interesting but the accelerated progression tag is worrying.

Harry Potter: Dimensional Wizard - Isekai into Harry Potter world, realises that other media must also exist. Wish fulfillment going into the world of various media worlds. Harem story. Could be good, or not.

Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor - Sounds interesting, non-cliche Xianxia progression novel. <<less

Continuation of general things I've read. Again, no particular order.

 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

The ranking is irrelevant.
