No Romance

No Romance
I don't like romance and I hate harem with a passion. If you are alike, WELCOME, FELLOW COMRADE!

Do not worry, I have read all of these either to near completion or TO completion so you can rest assured. I put them here with confidence.

Novels are slightly ranked. The only noteworthy rank you should be paying attention to is the novels on the very top and bottom of the list. Top meaning I love them to death, bottom meaning it's the novel I despise the most atm.

Note; don't worry! My list won't contain even a little bit of romance. Some might have some one sided love for the MC. You don't need to worry though, MC will not ever return feelings even at the end of the novel!

(In desperate need for a female MC with no romance, so if you've got any, PLEASE comment!)

A very laid back novel about a dude who turned into a snake with a level up and evolution system. It's pretty good honestly. Plot is pretty crap imo, but this novel is more about the grinding to reach new evolution heights. Not story, relationships, etc. ... more>>

    I see your number one list and I applaud. Let's marry Ning Shu, lol! That novel makes me feel so down to earth, contemplating over my life, and accept the joy of ordinary life instead of Mary Sue or Tom Sue protagonists.

    It's so hard finding a action novel with no romance/harem (half the time theres always a love interest). Thank you for this! W for putting Lord of the Mysteries and tr*sh of the Counts Family. BTW, have you read Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint? It's an amazing plot, no romance (although there is a lot of queerbait), good action, amazing female characters and side characters (the side characters aren't used as things to make the MC seem OP. The characters are very well made). This novel made me shed more tears than an average novel (especially with the edits on TikTok!).

      Yes, I've read it! Not to completion though. I stopped reading when MC and that girl (maybe?) kissed. I got too frustrated to continue reading, probably won't read it for a few years LMAO

      @Thatoneasianteadrink Yoo Sangah and Kim Dokja didn't kiss as KDJ snapped out of his trance due to that Constellation. Infact, Yoo Sangah and Kim Dokja are like siblings. They protect each other like siblings and care for one another like siblings, so do not worry, they definitely did NOT kiss! (Ut was an almost kiss tho).

    the thing i wanted most was a female mc from an action novel without romance clear.png but I don't remember ever finding one. and it's good to know that there are people who don't like romance at all like me, I can't help but roll my eyes every time I see one

      True. Finding a book with a FMC with no romance is near impossible... I've only found a handful that I like clear.png

      Also, SAME! I just can't help but gag when I see romance in books that aren't... Well... Romance books lmao. Like, I wanna read action, tf is this??? Why is the latter half of the story just couples smooching?

      @Thatoneasianteadrink exactly! I'm reading an action and out of nowhere a romance appears! That was the main reason I started to dislike romance. and when they are not on the tag then? I feel cheated

      @Mamamian OMG THATS THE EXACT THING THAT HAPPENED WITH ME AND SECOND LIFE RANKER!!

      Saw it so much in no romance lists and so I read it. Only after I got super into it did the romance appear and I goddamned near threw my phone LMAO. Planning to make a no romance bait list so I can warn fellow romance haters...
