One of my favorites (popular book and manhwa)—the MC tries so desperately to be a slacker and denies his self-sacrificial nature but this man coughs up blood like it's his job XD... more>>

Lots of misunderstandings—our MC has gathered quite the following as well. 9.5/10, definitely read this! Part 1 is completed.

Very popular book (and manhwa) and for a good reason. Our squid MC has caused quite a few headaches for his group. I haven't completely finished this but I would rate this a 9.0/10.... more>>

This is completed. 

SSMC <<less

Loved this—though it includes the typical otaku guy obsessed with girls (which, although not really my thing, didn't take away from the novel). Interesting and quite funny to see how everyone adores the MC—the MC pretends to be a perfect saint but in reality, is far from it—I would rate this a 9.0/10. ... more>>

This is completed.

SSMC & MS <<less

Reader reincarnates as the main character of a novel who was a ruthless killer in a hardcore family—I'm about 60ish chapters into the novel—it's alright, the misunderstandings are interesting and I like the way that the MC's family is slowly adoring her. 7.5/10... more>>

This hasn't been completely translated. 

MS <<less

Interesting storyline—the MC is assumed to be OP (he is, to a certain degree) but actually has a lot of weaknesses so it has some misunderstandings. He's slowly building up loyal subordinates. I've read up to chapter 80.1 and its pretty good so far. 7.5/10... more>>

Again, another story with an interesting storyline where a female actress becomes a Duke who was known for being corrupt after the death of his wife. I like the realistic struggle of the MC to adapt to the Duke's life. 7.5/10... more>>

This hasn't been completely translated/incomplete. 

MS <<less

Lots of misunderstandings about the MC—everyone assumes her to be a saintly girl who is self-sacrificial. The only issue is the major fujoshi trope where the MC is obsessed with yaoi. Otherwise, it's pretty comedic. 7/10... more>>

This hasn't been completely translated. 

MS & SSMC (kind of) <<less

Quite good—the MC and ML relationship is quite fun to read and the misunderstandings about the MC are snowballing from where I'm at. The ML assumes the MC is sacrificing a lot for him which is fun to read. Also, as you can probably tell from the tags, this is a BL! 8/10... more>>

Almost completely translated? 

MS & SSMC  <<less

Cute novel—story starts with the MC as a child and consort of the female Emperor. The MC has reincarnated as the consort who is eventually framed and killed by the Emperor's jealous consorts, which leads MC to be afraid of angering the consorts. The consorts all come to adore the MC though, and they come to believe (misunderstand) that the MC is afraid/unhappy/mature because she has some sort of tragic backstory. 7/10 (not completely my thing). ... more>>

Incomplete. 

MS <<less

The MC desperately wants to take the blame so badly but everything ends up making the MC look like a pure person who is so self-sacrificial XD (Warning: BL!!)... more>>

8.5/10—almost completely translated.

MS & SSMC <<less

Lighthearted and funny, our MC travels back in time after being executed and does everything she can to undo her death flags—her actions end up making everyone think she's a genius and a wonderful princess, but in reality, she's really just very simple-minded lmao... more>>

Everyone has Mia-itis—this also has a manga. 8.5/10—incomplete.

MS <<less

Quite good, the MC gathers a following like in ORV & TCF and is very protective of him. There are a couple of misunderstandings and although I haven't read too far, I sense some of his self-sacrificial nature. ... more>>

7.5/10 (not completely my thing)—incomplete

MS & SSMC <<less

Pretty good! The MC doesn't have very good self-preservation skills (cough cough, like almost everyone else on this list) and he's targetted by enemies at the get-go. The only sad thing is that this novel will never be complete with the passing of the author...Still, I'd give this an 8/10. ... more>>

Permanently incomplete.

SSMC <<less

The MC's POV is so funny—multiple misunderstandings and one really good scene where the MC "sacrifices" himself. Definitely a good read, but I don't want to spoil. (Warning: BL!!!) 8.5/10.... more>>

Completed!

SSMC & MS <<less

The amount of angst in this novel is unreal but it is also one of my favorite books, words cannot describe my love for this novel. The MC goes through so many tragedies (and the ML at that). Definitely recommend!!! (Warning: BL!!!) 10/10. ... more>>

Completed!

SSMC & MS <<less

It was pretty good with misunderstandings, but I ended up dropping it because I wasn't a big fan of the romance and who the MC ends up with. Thought I'd list it though, as it does have MS. 6.5/10. ... more>>

Completed!

MS <<less

Mainly read the manhwa because it's cute, but everyone thinks the MC is dying and the misunderstandings snowball after. 6.5~7/10... more>>

Incompleted

MS <<less

MC comes in as a professor of an elite academy after becoming wrapped up accidentally in a huge scheme by an evil organization (he has to trick both the academy and the organization). The MC also has a mysterious backstory himself. ... more>>

Incompleted—7/10 (7.5/10 for the manhwa).

MS <<less

Has really good potential—it seems like a really good novel, I've been trying to read the MTL but it kind of ruins the actual greatness of the novel. Hopefully an actual translator picks this up! ... more>>

Incompleted—7.5/10 (would have rated it higher if not for the translation). 

MS & SSMC <<less

Good potential—there's misunderstandings and the MC appears to have the qualities of a SSMC! He's slowly building his fanbase/protection squad and I'm loving it. ... more>>

Incompleted—7.5/10 (has potential for a higher rating!)

MS & SSMC <<less

Similar to ORV and TCF, I think this novel has a lot of potential but the only issue is that it doesn't get enough attention and deserves a better translator! Thankfully, a translator has been kind enough to pick this novel up again though, so I'm predicting (because this novel is so good) that this one's popularity might increase. Similar scenario as the Novel's extra, but I prefer this one more! ... more>>

Incompleted—7.5/10 (has potential for a higher rating)

SSMC <<less

WARNING: The MC is really tr*shy so if you were looking for a righteous protagonist...maybe don't check out this one. But the misunderstandings and "self-sacrifice" in here is great—I'm about 500ish chapters right now and I'm loving the bromance. 7.5/10... more>>

Incomplete? Translation (Not sure—I'm pretty sure I saw a complete translation of this somewhere)

MS & SSMC <<less

The manhwa for this is great—I'm loving it! The MC is seen to be a cold OP noble but his thoughts show how 'cowardly and weak' he is. There's more to the MC than this but I don't want to spoil it. The storyline is very interesting so far, so I can at least say the manhwa is an 8/10 (I haven't read the novel just yet). ... more>>

Incomplete translation

MS <<less

Pretty good—as the title indicates the MC often commits su*cide to solve his problems (my dude has no self-preservation skills like please don't this isn't healthy in any way) so trigger warning! But this novel has an interesting storyline—my only complaint is one arc with the MC finding his "love interest" which felt forced, but other than that its okay. I'll give it a 6.5-7/10. ... more>>

Incomplete translation. 

SSMC & (Slight) MS  <<less

The MC goes back in time and restarts his singing career—there are some misunderstandings that the MC is a genius and that he's had some unfortunate accidents though haha. 7/10... more>>

Incomplete translation—I believe this has been dropped so it would be great if this was picked up again!
