Still the best novel I've read so far. Deals with heavy fantasy and transmigration, zero romance with a smart and cunning MC. If you like misunderstandings, I reckon you'd enjoy this. The world building is unlike any other and the power system is incredible and you'll find yourself wanting to learn more, to the point of wanting to ingrain every name in your brain. The characters are well-written, so fleshed out that it pains me sometimes when we don't get to see them a lot. Overall fantastic story with a fairly active fandom, would recommend 10/10. ... more>>

 Ps: If you ever think of dropping it, I commend you to at least finish volume 1. It's an unwritten rule in the fandom that anyone who doesn't make it past volume 1 and critics it negatively isn't paid attention to xD.  <<less

Regression with no romance, as of yet. I felt actual pity for MC's past self who didn't know any better and was constantly mocked and... more>> taken advantage of, and it's incredibly satisfying to see the MC act so bravely despite all the hurdles. You truly feel as if he deserves to do such a thing. The side characters could have been more fleshed out but they're not lacking in foundation so it's not bad, but there lies a heavy emphasis on the MC himself but it doesn't damage the quality of the novel. Sometimes I do wonder if he's too OP but the translation and wonderful pacing erases those thoughts very quickly. <<less

The story of Van Gogh, who died whilst in extreme pain and agony, somehow possessing the body of a young boy in modern South Korea.... more>> Heartwarming story as Ko Hun [the name of the boy whose body Van Gogh posseses] lives his life as both a child and an incredible artist. Very lighthearted, the scenes of Ko Hun discovering the changes in the modern world (pizza, electronics, new art materials) make me laugh out loud a lot and him spending time with his grandpa is the best. The side characters are very endearing and loveable and it doesn't use flowery words to describe a painting like it's forcing you to understand that the painting is beautiful. Healed my soul. <<less

This has completely exploded in popularity the past few years and I doubt many people haven't given it a shot. MC is suddenly met with... more>> the reality that he's been transported to his favourite novel, an unpopular series where he remains as the only reader, during a train ride after work. Desperate and with the knowledge and privilege he has for finishing the novel, he tries to survive the apocalyptic world of constellations and supernovaes. <<less

Slight romance but it doesn't disturb the plot so I'll put it here. MC is at the peak of human tr*sh, the literal definition of scum. With a gambling addiction, a family who hates him, and bankruptcy crawling up his ankles, he turns to drowning himself. But, suddenly, a certain feeling hits him, it's incomprehensible, it's just some sort of feeling — instinct, perhaps? ... more>>

Basically, a story of a desperate and sad man turning his life around. It's sort of a harem, but not quite? It's annoying but bearable. I would reading this with an open mind and completely skipping the side stories, I would've been a happy man if I just stopped at the main story. MC is dedicated to a fault and somewhat skilled but acts like a man child sometimes. <<less

Extremely fun read, the banters and relationship the MC has with the people around him (who aren't trying to get him killed) are cute. MC... more>> was the black sheep of his prestigious family, the untalented youngest son who couldn't even swing a sword right, the shame of the clan, the embarrassment that they didn't want to acknowledge. After being "mercifully" spared from death and just getting kicked out, he discovers all sorts of things. Misfortune seems to follow our MC everywhere though as he gets killed in the middle of his sleep at the peak of his life. After suffering from his death, lo and behold, he has regressed as a baby with the chance to redo it all over again. <<less

Regression. Our MC, an untalented student in a prestigious performing arts school as an opera major, faces misfortune one after another. In the end, he... more>> ends up as a hopeless NEET for 5 years, doing odd jobs singing at weddings and churches. Suddenly, one winter evening, after performing at a church while intoxicated, he finds himself 20 years in the past. Using his extensive experience, he aims to reclaim his abandoned dreams. <<less

A good twist to the Necromancer class setting. Our MC is transmigrated to a game after being electrocuted inside his VR pod. The body he's... more>> come to posses? The scum seventh imperial prince who was banished, left to become a grave keeper in the desolate Ronia fiefdom. The worst part? He's become a necromancer! A being usually killed and hated by the empire.  <<less
