Here's a list of novels you might enjoy if you, like me, want to read some good stories that don't force an unnecessary & underdeveloped romance subplot where it isn't needed.... more>>

So these stories will have minimal to no romance, and I despise the harem trope in general. On the other hand, I'm a sucker for good bromance/brotherhood/friendship/found family stories. I also won't add any series to the list that I haven't personally read.

I decided to create this list because I've seen many similar 'no romance' lists on the site from which I've gotten many great recommendations to the point they have now become my go-to sources for new novels.

- - - - - - - - - - -

I'll be trying to organize the list based on how good I personally think the books are, but I'm only really certain about the first 4 being my favorites, the list then gets quite ambiguous, but I personally really like everything on the first page.

In the descriptions, I'll include how many chapters of the series I have read as well as how much romance there has been up until where I've read, as well as additional thoughts/opinions/warnings that I might have about the series.

I'll try to update the list whenever I find another good series to add. If you know of any series you think I'd like based on my list I'm more than open to suggestions! 

UPDATED JAN 1ST: Added 'The Nebula's Civilization' to the list. <<less

Those are all the novels I can remember I read, this list is solely for archiving purposes so that I can look back on books I read or dropped or am planning to read so that I can remember them and re-read them if I suddenly want to.... more>>

In there are lots of different things, you got generic isekais I first read when I was just starting out with novels, then villainess/otome game novels since I started liking the concept, and since I love female protags. You have oneshots and lots of yuris and some genderbending stories in there since I'm also into that.

What you won't find in here is any BL/yaoi stories, anything with a harem (except for some since I started with isekais), nor tragedy or hard psychological things, I hate those.

Though I got way more than that, since the limit for lists is 100 novels, I'm gonna stop at that

Not privated since I don't see the purpose and maybe you may find a hidden treasure within that list <<less

Don't you just love reading novels about delicious food of any sort and drooling over the description or the pictures. I do! ... more>>

These novels may not necessarily concentrate on cooking or food but it is a central part of the novels. <<less

Novels that I'm waiting to have more released chapters or novels that I'll read for later

Isekai+Foodies+Adventure 

1 to 24: Novels I read completely (if not ongoing), sorted in order of personal preference.... more>>

25 to ?: Novels I plan on reading in the future, not sorted.

Male centric (male protagonist) novels in both modern and ancient settings, no BL unless it's a little bromance (meaning, author may have added a dash of bromance for fan service, but no actual shounen ai or yaoi included in this list). Shounen, seinen, xuanhuan, no-CP (no romance) or novels featuring a little straight romance but mostly focused on action/adventure (ie, romantic subplot). One novel is harem with a sis con, but I enjoyed the MC and plot enough that it didn't bother me too much. Another novel is harem but only depicted in the extras, which I skipped!

Majority of these had fan translations completed at some point, so you can find them on various novel aggregator websites if the chapter links are gone from NU. <<less

Boy/Girl romance and romance fantasy novels that I've read. Will mostly have BG romance but may include a few that are non-romance that have the miscellaneous historical European-inspired fantasy setting. Will have BG romance in other settings as well.... more>>

I'm going to try to keep the list in alphabetical order. <<less

Stuff I really liked, and would support. Depending on that month's budget.... more>>

Not in any particular order. All Japanese, because I haven't yet looked into Chinese or Korean stuff. One foreign culture at a time.  Many genres, ranging from profound to banal, from cute and fluffy to full-on chuuni.

List created in May 2024, probably won't bother to remove titles if and when they're licensed. Also, not comprehensive or definitive. <<less
