I am doing this list for people like me who enjoy family and friendships or gets entrained by MC building there organizations directly or indirectly—
(Unedited) They are all in alphabetic orders, # or A-Z

There will also master-follower relationship or master-disciple relationship being recovered or building up between them…

And some overstate themselves even though they are OP or haven’t released their power-

There are no romance nor harem but there might be people around them having favorable impressions on them or bad reputation trying to be fixed or just leaving it…

I will try to put on novels that I’m sure there isn’t any romance nor harem and have already read them so to be double sure and some are recommended to me and had told me there isn’t :>

Any that are involve with the tag romance is explained in the bottom ^^*

Loving family for the beginning, knowing, and get transmigrated in a novel or another world ✌️

MC - Main Character
OP - Over Powered
OG FL - Original Female Lead
FL - Female Lead
OG ML - Original Male Lead

Some of the novels I have read and liked.... more>>

Only like the top 15 are in order the rest are in random order. <<less

My favourite novels that I particularly enjoyed

The isekai here is pointed to another world, but not only to the usual Jpn isekai with reincarnation/rebirth/transmigrate MC. It can be the world that's totally not in the earth, and maybe it's not a reincarnation/transmigration and MC is from that world. ... more>>

My ideal isekai novel is the one with the world building as its central theme and the romance is non existent, even if there's romance element in it, usually it's slow and just as unnecessary side dish.

NO HAREM for me. Tho few of them has harem and romance tags, for me there are those that are not romance and harem, so I'll explain in related description instead.

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

Well, since I am a girl who enjoy action genre manga and novel, and very recently quite enjoying isekai type story building. I admit that it's quite hassle to look for new decent series without the overload 'harem fan service'.. ... more>>

Here's a few decently one.. And a few other without harem tag that's also quite good.. Fufu..  <<less

The following are Japanese novels about the lives of parents (father/mother) with their children living in a fantasy world.  The plot of the story generally... more>> focuses on adventure, drama, comedy, and SoL.  The plot of the story may contain romance and harem as subplots or genres although I try to avoid them as much as possible.  Don't forget I will avoid the red genres as much as possible so that it is friendly to read to everyone.  And here are the novel recommendations: <<less

JP Novels with Diverse Genres... more>>

Not in any order

Mostly Isekai's & fantasy SoL

NO BL, Yaoi, Tragedy, 18+, Fan-fics

Just for Light Readings. <<less

If you don't like romance and harem novels, then this list might help you find good novels.  This list of Japanese novels is generally of the SOL, fantasy, and adventure genres with the theme of family and friendship.  ... more>>

For example, the adventures of a father and his daughter in a fantasy world.  Or it could be SOL's story that warms the heart.  

Apart from avoiding the harem and romance genres, I also try to avoid red genres as much as possible (genres are forbidden or should not be read by children or under 15 years old) such as adult, mature, ecchi, and gore. But it could be that in the story there is some content as subplots even though it is not the focus of the story. I mean, I'm also disturbed or uncomfortable with the existence of the red genres or similar contents, even though sometimes the contents are a little needed for plot story development.

The following are recommendations for Japanese novels without romance and harem but focusing on stories of family and friendship in a fantasy world. I hope that you all enjoy reading these novels! <<less

These are the best recommendations of novels about life of the wholesome family in the fantasy world

Good world building isekai with minimal harems. Mix of shoujo/shounen and seinen/josei. Some might have mild background harem, but trying to keep that at a... more>> minimum. <<less

No description.

As Japanese novels generally contain brocon / siscon as a spice for the story. However, these novels are quite heartwarming regarding the meaning of family life.... more>>

Some novels may still be in ongoing status, I will try my best to avoid a distorted ending, namely 'in*est'. This list will be updated further if a 'win in*est' ending is found.

I mean, brother and sister should forever be a family, not lovers or anything like that. Thus, a good brother and sister relationship is an older brother and younger sister who care for each other. 

The plot of the story may contain romance and harem as sub plots or genres although I try to avoid them as much as possible.  Don't forget I will avoid the red genres as much as possible so that it is friendly to read everyone.  And here are the novel recommendations: <<less
