Some reader says its unacceptable since MC does not have super power like the witches in Release That Witch but the author keep mentioning the MC have an almost photographic memory and he is an engineering soldier who focus on technology knowledge. Warning: MC is grooming his teenage fiancé to be his wife. There are s*x scenes too. (Recommended but with warning: Adult/Mature tag.)  <<less

Upd. May 2023: Latest worthy addition: Fushisha no Deshi (Disciple of the Lich). ... more>>

Upd.:  I encountered several novels that blew up my top ranks in 2022.

I have a specific taste for Isekai novels, and I'm able to tolerate many things and sometimes even issues with the plot, world building and flatness of characters. But what I can say about this list you're about to witness, is that I'm positively able to re-read each and every of this novels, given the time.

In some cases, like Wortenia Senki and Hachinan Tte, I read both WN and LN, but I don't think it's needed to bother adding both versions to this list.

P.S.: While the list isn't fully complete, I'm starting slowly to add my biased comments for you to see.

P.P.S.: My memory is good, but I can still miss your favourite novel, if you think I did (I'm mostly talking about Isekai stuff), feel free to leave comment under the List. Most definitely I'll reply and if I didn't miss it for a reason, I'll add it (at least into my reading list, hehe). <<less

NO PARTICULAR ORDER <<less

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.

Stuff i've read ages ago that i want to be able to easly look back on, appreciate and reflect on the passing of the time, whenever i go back here.... more>>

This list is based on my sentimentality, memories of time well-spent, of things close to my heart. Not on the novels' quality (you should still check them all out). I will try to sort them somewhat reasonably, at least.

If you think this list is missing some novels, you should cry about it in your closet. If they aren't here, I haven't read them (or liked them enough). Prolly because they got buried in my 'to read' list. (Yuusha, Aruiwa Bakemono to Yobareta Shoujo; tr*sh of the Count's Family; M E M O R I Z E, Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint; Sevens; Monster Paradise; Pivot of the Sky; Release that Witch; Reverend Insanity; The Dark King; etc.)
Don't read anything below 50th place on this list, it's not worth it.

Also, this won't ever be updated, I think. <<less

临渊行 SS+ (Lin Yuanxing or Journey on the Brink of Abyss). Oct 21.
Mother of learning SS-. Jan 21.
Original Wizard B+. ~ Apr 21.

SSS - it was incredibly interesting for me to read, I consider it an excellent work, the shortcomings do not strike my eye.

SS - it was very interesting for me to read, I consider it a good work, some shortcomings are striking.

S - I was very interested in reading, the work may be shit, but I was interested in something and did not want to pay attention to the shortcomings.

A - it was interesting for me to read, I think the work is at least normal, there may be many flaws.

B - it was interesting for me to read, it may be shit, there are many shortcomings, but I ignore some.

C - it was a little interesting for me to read, I think the works are shit, there are a lot of shortcomings.

Estimates can be corrected and specified. The meaning can be distorted due to translation.

Although imo the most correct classification would be: what I finished reading was interesting to me at that moment, and what I never finished reading was not. <<less
