Not ranked in any particular order. Leads that make you root for evil

these are stories that have pulled me in and made me want to continue reading, whether because of the story itself, because of the world-building, because i have found myself invested in a character and their circumstances, or because it's just a genuine joy to read.... more>>

i add comments to my recs, as well as briefly summarize their listed summaries so that you don't have to check yourself.

not in any particular order aside from the first and last items. <<less

Mainly reincarnation. I like transmigration.I hate Stallion(Harem) novels. I don’t care if something is Bl/GL/BG, good is good dammit. ... more>>

Loved all of them tbh

Reading list for novels with female mc's that aren't annoying or have an idiotic personality.

No description.

Many kinds of Novels ranging from Sci-Fi to (Dark) Fantasy, Comedy, Romance but mainly Action and Adventure, trying to avoid excessive Harem, Ecchi, Smut, no Yaoi/BL either.... more>>

Roughly sorted from best to weaker Novels (in my opinion). I also try to add descriptions to every Novel I can, if I can think of something to say that isn't already in the synopsis, they might contain minor spoilers though.

I'd like to add two more Novels here that I am reading but aren't listed here because they are Original Works from "Webnovel . com": "World Domination System" and "The Mech Touch". Both are pretty decent and are worth a look. <<less

A list containing novels with zero harem[love triangles in some] and good stories to my preference. Not tags as there is no central themes. But... more>> I can promise you that there is no filler stuff in my recommendations.I will be updating the details and why you should read them often enough. And don't go with the way they are queued, as things may vary from person to person, just take them as a list.If you want to use MTL for novels... use comrademao.. its the closest with OG quality I have come across, they use some good software. <<less

Author god's hand involvement in story is very little. Basically no plot armor.
NOT UNLUCKY or DELIBERATELY TRAGIC, BUT ONLY NATURAL. ... more>>

Mc can be defeated, betrayed, disabled, fooled. Teammates can die. Females can be r*ped.  <<less

Novels that: (1) explore values and social constructs, (2) have a character that explores/questions their identity or existence, and/or (3) makes you, the reader, question your own existence.... more>>

Each novel is (roughly) ranked by how much it fits the above description, as well as a bit of a personal preference bias.

For some novels, the "existential" aspect may not be obvious in the beginning, but will make itself clear as the novel progresses.

Most novels listed are completed. <<less

What I think are pretty good novels to read.

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

If you want good novels, then you've come to the right place.... more>>

Though if you are searching for harem novels and cliche titles, then i am afraid that you've come to the wrong place and should probably find another list. I dislike harems, repetitive novels and just bad novels in general. I made this list to invalidate the claims that NU doesn't contain any good novels anymore. I know the vast majority of translated works caters to the harem/anti-hero loving part of the community, but i quite frankly dislike the vast majority of titles in those genres due to how bad they are. As a result, i have created this list to include novels that IMO stand out due the excellent execution in story beats, excellent translations/localization (English primarily) and just have good characters. That's all. <<less

All sorts of genres-comedy, tragedy, post apocalyptic, fantasy, romance, and more!

Good Military novels - with a female protagonist! ^ - ^

Completed series that are not a waste of time. Added benefit of binging and not waiting for updates. No need to be worried if the... more>> series will suddenly be dropped by the translator. Ranked by how much people will enjoy the series as a whole. No BL <<less
