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

Books I read using MTL. Some novels I read long time ago so It might not be a completely accurate rating. Bottom of list are books I plan to MTL, Will update and move most recent commentaries / reviews to top. Beware there might be some spoilers if you read my commentary.
Rating Readability using MTL based on my opinion : 
Highest 5 Stars = Very Easy to Read ☆☆☆☆☆
Lowest 1 Star = Very Difficult to Decipher ☆... more>>

Generally Historical novels are harder to decipher than novels in Modern setting so I tend to gravitate and read more modern day novels.  <<less

These are random but usually have emotionally and mentally strong mc's. It's also arranged randomly(rank doesn't matter).
