Good novel i recommend

Good novel i recommend
To be fair, i am not actually a fan of light novel. but, there are still some gems in this site that i genuinely like. Novels on this list are mostly korea and china, since i really hate jp light novel and their troupe (harem, boring generic op MC, forgettable world building,...). if you can find some good jp ln, please tell me. And 1 is the best and follow.

Will update when i come across novels worth recommending.

    Woah I already read most of novel in your list (except for CN cuz I'm not a fan of chinese novel). Yeah, I know your feelings 'bout JP novel. When MC died cuz truck-kun or car-kun. Or in the isekai troupe, the MC (a man) has plenty beautiful woman... Dunno why, I hate harem cuz JP novel. clear.pngWhen a novel has good start, but screwed cuz the harem... Many JP novel with harem's tag like that... clear.pngclear.png

    Oh, but I still a fan of JP novel (except harem). 

    I'd like to give you recomemdations for JP novel! 

    1. Tensei shittara slime datta ken (isekai without romance, but still has woman who like him. Well, he doesn't like someone. He is genderless//a slime. Now, I use 'he' cuz in before, he is a man.) 

    2. Miss Demon Maid (like sequel for other novel but can read alone. This is bloody-fluffy-slice of life. Prepare for blood.)

    3. I alone level up (KR novel. I think you already know this. The manhwa is very amazing!) 

    4. I am an evil lord of intergalactic... (still don't read, but has good reviews)

    5. The S'classes that I raise (KR. Plan to read)

      Dont shy away from Chinese novel. Even if 90% of chinese web novels are tr*sh that consists of dumb young master, steroid bill that make you stronger, info dump, overlong fight that make your head spin,..., there are still some gems.

      i already watched slime and read solo leveling manhwa. Not sure about 5 since it has some pretty negative review. But thanks for your recommendationclear.png

    As you guy can see, novels my list have something in common: op protagonist. So why are this list only have 2 jp ln, and one of them is slice of life, and another is weak to strong? I do have some criteria when i pick novel:

    1. Mc power must feel earned. Their mentality should somewhat match their opness. I dont want to read mc that are dense, edgy, jesus, naive, foolish or just there to react to things beacause that is just garbage in my eye.

    2. Overdramatic is something i hate the most. Self-doubt mc really pissed me off. It make me think about his action and eventually, see a lot of plot holes i usually ignore. It is fine if the novel is flawless, but light novel can never be flawless, so...clear.png

    3. Action should come with mysteries and adventure. 

    4. Mc must have goal or at least want to have a goal. He also must actively act to reach that goal. Maybe this is a very basic requirement, but a lot of novel (jp especially) dont have that. I am sick with isekai, which Mc died->op skill-> wander around and have girls as achivement, rinse and repeat. 

    5. Side character. I cant ask for 3d side-char, but they should be atleast likeable, not boring and bland as paper. 

    And there you have it. If you have intersting light novel that you seem fit, feel free to recommend me. I can post this but i think that only those who see my list can actually know my taste.clear.pngclear.pngclear.png

      Thanks. I will check that.clear.png
      Edit: yeah, already read that. I already have a review, but my conclusion for the lazy king is: a 1 hour movies that feel like 3 hour.
