read it now! super underrated and definitely my favorite of all time! rich second-gen loner gets trapped in a vr dating game, where the target character seems a bit strange. it has an incredible plot and crazy romance, a lot of drama and humor, some existential moments, and is all around awesome. i love the story and the ending, and the plot twists go crazyy... more>>

sobbing,,literally a masterpiece. this can barely even be considered danmei bc of how perfect it is. only second only because i'm a sucker for tr*shy danmei. a post-apocalyptic love story between a mutant human/mushroom and the guy who kills mutants. the romance is important, but the best part is the general plot and worldbuilding of the story, which give me chills every time. if you like good literature this is just perfect <33... more>>

no need for much of an explanation. like you've probably read this already. if not then get your ass to it!! it's f*cking popular for a reason. but if not: the big bad guy gets reincarnated 13 years later, where he discovers the guy he treated as an enemy was in love with him this whole time, even as the rest of the world chased him down to hell. the main and subplots are incredible, and all of the characters are written super super well. the ultimate villain reveal also goes hard omg... more>>

read this if you need something lighthearted after erha;; mc's cousin gets cheated on by her online game boyfriend, so mc catfishes the scum with a female account, but then realizes that the guy isn't as bad as expected? a lot of funny moments, and it's definitely one where both fall in love on accident. also both the mc and ml are gods of gaming so there are some pretty satisfying moments!!... more>>

one of my favorite reincarnation-to-villain cnovels!! rich second-gen who killed himself gets reincarnated as the emperor who tortures the protagonist of a yy novel,, he ends up freeing the ml and helping him in countless ways, even though they are destined enemies as rulers of opposite kingdoms. sweet, funny, sad, and well-written, with loveable characters and a lot of heartbreak <//333... more>>

also a really good reincarnation story! actor who plays the villain from a novel adaptation gets reincarnated into his body. he tries to save the protagonist and tries to act evil, but nobody really buys it. a lot of misunderstandings and secret lore that doesn't get revealed until later!! i love love this plot, and the way they hint at the nature of the original novel throughout the story. ... more>>

omg...sweats.... basically prison warden and prisoner pairing, but the prisoner is a financial criminal and business magnate. also it gets spicy in a lot of different ways LOL. the characters are really interesting and are definitely some of the smartest mc/mls out there.... more>>

funniest sh*t ever lmaoo. mc gets yin-yang eyes that let him see ghosts, but touching the ml makes them disappear! so he touches the ml a lot, until misunderstandings start to form. it's really funny and cute, and mostly fluffy dog food by the latter half (i nearly died). a pretty lighthearted read for anyone >:)... more>>

*dies* read at your own risk. this will mu*der you if you're not prepared. the tyrant emperor of basically everything, who took over the world with blood, dies after a long life of bloodshed and loneliness. he reincarnates back into when he was a disciple, and he despises his master for ruining his life, so he'll try everything to ruin his master's life. this novel is misunderstanding central and reading it makes me want to cry. both the ml and mc are misunderstood to high hell and don't see it until it's too late.... more>>

this one also gets crazy LOL. but it's definitely one of my favorites. modern-day reader of a danmei is transmigrated into the novel as the first villain, the evil shizun. but he ends up pampering the protagonist, which leads to misunderstandings as he continues the plot! the plot gets crazy though omg. the protagonist is kind of batsh*t at times but i love the plot/subplot and the side pairings!!... more>>

cute!! a regular office worker falls in love with the game villain's NPC and always brings him gifts and talks to him. he gets transmigrated (in his dreams) into the game world, where the villain has secretly been aware of him this whole time;; it's so cute and funny. mainly just about the game and the romance, but the setting is pretty unique and adorable! ... more>>

so funny lmao. a streamer known for sh*t talking gets recruited onto one of china’s best league teams, whose captain he’s secretly a huge fan of. the captain shows a unique interest into him,,,it’s so funny because of all the sh*t that mc gets into. he’s constantly in some online controversy or caught with the ml doing something sus. also, this is from the same author as Guide on how to fail at online dating, who constantly puts out bangers btw... more>>

one of the classic unlimited flow series!! personally my favorite one bc of the incredible translation. a librarian gets s**ked into a funky game where they compete to solve mind games or puzzles for their lives. he meets the ml because of a talking egg (for real). i swear to god my iq increased reading this novel, do it if you wanna read something dramatic, gay, and makes you smarter all at once... more>>
