This is a list of the stories I read that I felt could be recommended, be it for comedy or interesting plot reasons.I find these... more>> to have the more interesting approaches on things, and although not necessarily faultless, can be entertaining enough and surprise you with how far it can still go. <<less

but went downhill

A random list without specific themes.

Don't expect many harems with characters who can't think for themselves or fall in love with the MC before page 1. Many might have a slow moving plot... have to invest yourself into the characters to find the tragic, beautiful and poignant!... more>>

First, some English original webnovels that are superb and easily googleable (in order of best characters, not necessarily plot): 
1. Trailer tr*sh
2. Iron Teeth
3. Castle Kingside (rewrite)
4. Metaworld Chronicles
5. The Good Student
6. Worm (Parahumans)
7. AnimeCon Harem (18+)
8. Mother of Learning
9. Selena's Reign
10. Double Blind: A modern litRPG
11. Tidal Lock (unfinished)

Note that I've been recently pruning and updating the list to remove some that were just good stories with average characters and move them over to new lists that are top of their genre. You can see all my rec lists at https://www.novelupdates.com/user/10378/tallrice/ <<less

More often than not, stories I included had some grim parts to them. Where I find it necessary, I'll put a warning.

Just random stuff to read

A list of some of my favorite dark fantasy stories.  Where monsters are really monsters and people struggle to survive. Most of these will be mature due to gore, fighting, and deaths. They may contain adult scenes, although that isn't a requirement. ... more>>

Most will contain a mature MC (Alpha Mc). Often times they are ruthless or don't have problems killing someone if they have to. Another example is that they don't shy away from le*d events.

[Not Ordered] <<less

Novels I have read or am reading, which include skills, level/game system and/or reincarnation, basically isekai, or just some kind of similar fantasy setting. The list also includes my score for them and what I thought about them which might include slight spoilers (sorry), some novel 'reviews' are shorter either because I've forgotten about them or just didn't have a lot to say about them. Mostly Korean and a few Japanese novels, I haven't and don't plan on reading any Chinese novels, i honestly can't understand the cultivation and divinity thing most of their novels have so i tend to avoid them, and I avoid slice of life novels like the plague. The list isn't... more>> in any particular order, the ones near the end are the ones I've read most recently. I will update this list and add novels I like and find worth reading every time I discover one. Unfortunately, there is a limit of a hundred novels per list on this site so if you want more recommendations, you can go to part 1 of my journey through isekai-esque novels!

Link to part 1 of the list: novelupdates.com/viewlist/11416/ <<less

I've read many Isekai novels(mostly JP) and many of them suck... Dense MC, trying to make this foreign world to be Japan/Earthlike and In Japan killing is wrong so I will not kill anyone here ... also I don't disrespected women so I'm just gonna ignore their feelings and not go out with them and will keep adding more trying my best to make them fall for me and then ignore them type of sh*t.. if you are tired of the nonsense I just mentioned then give these a try.... more>>

Here are some worthy mentions from Qidian, give them a try:

1. Chrysalis.

The list will keep on expanding as I read more good ones. <<less
