Cold/cunning/calm/crazy/ruthless mc
No rankings! All random order
Just a list consisting of characters who apply to at least one of the following tags as stated in list. Some characters will have all 5 of the applied tags, others only would have 1 tag at most. Some might only be ‘slightly’ cold or calm but still will be on this list, alas falling under the category.
The story will consist of all types of novels like the typical Korean transmigration stories to the angsty danmei. All types, infinite flow, a deep slice of life I keep my word…
Currently updating so more stories will come on here, will try to find some hidden gems, I have been on this site for a while and have only just made an account so you will have to bare with me, as I try to find those stories I have read a long time back
Also would be very nice if anybody reading this recommended anymore stories to add onto this list as I have been desperately searching for actual decent stories with this tag. Surprisingly not many stories actually fulfil this tag successfully and I rather not add some derelict dull 2000+ novel with op mc, rather stories that will captivate your interest

This novel is exceptional. Our main character falls under the more extreme side of the cold and calm tags, maybe also sadistic characters but it is more of a indifferent personality than anything sadistic... more>>

Lmao I really need to make an ‘evil’ characters list, this one and the one above definitely fall into that category. So you have a mentally wrong mc who would definitely kill 1000s of people to check if he felt anything afterwards (of course if given the chance) in the end however he really does make you feel pity for him. Even if he is a sadistic ruthless cold maniac... more>>

Ok this story. So I would say our mc is falling within the ranks of calm cunning and in the middle of sadistic. Actually not sadistic, he does play his role as a villain well but he isn’t truly immersed in actually being a villain. You could also say cold but I’d say the later tags relate more to him... more>>

This bro is cunning. Coming back to the past it a typical reincarnation story in which he pretends to act tr*sh while solving mysteries surrounding his fate. Despite acting like an idiot to hide himself, in reality he is a calm not so much cold but he does meet the standards of it. All and all a good read... more>>

Ok this story also fairly great, yet alas flawed. Our main character does not fall into ‘cold’ more so, but rather cunning and calm. You go Kim rok soo. I guess he was kind of cold (but was he really lol I would say but its a huge spoiler) but from the point of when the story actually starts, you won’t see Cale acting ‘cold’ just very calm (as seen when he was really apathetic about waking up in a foreign place)... more>>

So our mc here is very similar to Zong jiu (thriller trainee) in the fact that they both are seemingly emotionless and void of life but of course the truth is our mc here is also much different in the way he loves his ml. It’s a completely different type of love story. That is a very dull explanation without spoiling either stories. Either way try this story out. ... more>>

Cunning. One word cunning. Also calm. This story is most definitely an information dump, and every action can only be understood by reading the paragraphs carefully. Most definitely not a story for beginners. Lol, but you can always try. Shy away from the trending stories and read this as your first I guess.... more>>

Ok this story is long. Very long and for the first start of the story, our mc does not follow any of the tags I’ve stated. However don’t be disheartened, after the first 100-200 chapters you will get your time back, ok there is little romance but you do get a very cold and apathetic character.... more>>

Let’s just say this story is one on the darker end. A lot of the stories here will be. Our mc while more on the ‘rough’ end of cold, is still as said cold. Not ice block cold or emotion devoid, he is more ruthless but once again that is still under the umbrella term of ‘cold’. He has a snappy mouth and won’t hesitate to sh*t on you. Of course you will read the story and see why, but doesn’t change the way he will act. Regardless if you’re into dark stories then this is one for you. Also a very psychological based relationship. Not so ‘toxic’ but you will see as you read... more>>

Ok so our mc here is a calm boy willing to enter this ‘game’ to find about his deceased brother. He is also very very smart but I wouldn’t necessarily say he is cunning . Cold? Nope not really more emotionally indifferent, but his inner monologue isn’t boring and more comedic at times, so we can throw that away. But really if your looking for a nice infinity flow novel try it out,... more>>

Ok our mc here does fall in line with the calm tag. Maybe also just breaching cunning with his antics. Regardless it’s a good rags to riches novel and the mc is very calm but not heartless and emotionally drained (well he is sometimes) he has a soft side to those who deserve it, of course he won’t spare those who intend to hurt him, (he does full on becomes Ruthless in that instance) he isn’t s*upid. Compared to others on the list he is a lot ‘nicer’ Anyway just a good read to spare time I would say.... more>>

Okay we have another cold and calm mc. He really is apathetic too. As you read on you will see how he questions everything with indifference, almost like he sees no purpose with it. You know the kind who would look at a dead body and not be fazed by the blood but rather would ask how they died. That’s how I would describe the main character. However what caught my attention was the synopsis and the fact it was tagged Shounen. It was a very interesting read to say the least I think you should try it. :) also if you like hell app then you may find mc similar? The story not so... more>>

Now this is a fun one. Well fairly famous i remember, back when i was in the danmei side of novels. Now I would say our mc is most definitely a cold and cunning person and I really love all the conflicts and politics involved with the story. It will keep you entertained so yes read it. (This is to fufill the Danmei expectations I wrote, of course there will be more but I will try to find more ‘hidden’ novels)... more>>

Ok my friend our main is ruthless. Ruthlessly cold and calm. Great, except he may be a little overbearing for some. Not really for the faint hearted i would say, yet I doubt anybody checking this list came for fluff. Anyway in my opinion a good read. ... more>>

Now this is spectacular. Want a mc who is cold cunning and calm yet still holds onto this passing humanity? Want a mc who doesn’t understand why he feels pity for people despite being this ‘immortal’ person? Well this is the novel for you. Not only is mc cool you will get insight onto other characters ... more>>

Mc is a psycho killer. Cold calculating and hiding under the guise of a forensic psychologist. Best of all he won’t change, this is a book about serial killers people, and when I say it is under rated it is. Definitely recommended :)... more>>

This is genuinely wholesome as hell. Our mc comes from a sect where they are forced to lose each and every emotion becoming only stoic and void. Aka fitting the cold calm and apathetic tags. However I wouldn’t say cunning. He seems almost dull and clueless as he desperately finds himself in love. Regardless a very nice and short love story... more>>

Our first fl. so she isn’t cold (is tagged cold however?) but I would say she is a bit distant and apathetic in a comedic manner. She is most definitely cunning. The girl has wits. All and all it’s a very smart and clever fl who can maintain a calm composure. Her behaviour isn’t extreme and she is not an ice lock cold character nor a cunning mastermind. Just a very smart medical girl. Also I think one of the few characters on the list tagged with all the filters above. (No joke we have cautious protag, cold protag, pragmatic calm etc) ... more>>

Once again the reincarnation stories are back. Our mc is definitely fitting of all the tags, fairly level headed, but when he wants to be ruthless he is. Anyway it’s a modern mafia story for those who enjoy that thing... more>>

Another aloof cold fl? Yeah why not. So currently this story is only translated with 10 chapters but that isn’t stopping me from recommending it. Our fl is very crafty and cunning and overall despite 10 chapters I have found the story quite good. Definitely recommending to everyone. ... more>>

My the protagonist here is Ruthless and cold. Above the borderline iceblock cold. He has no sympathy in him whatsoever. The main reason for this is that he sees a games for what it is. A game. So he does what we do in games by making ruthless disastrous decisions that ruin multiple lives. ... more>>

Another work from the author of reverend Insanity. Sign me up. This novel I will say is slow. But it is going to be. Other novels of similar story easily exceed 1500+ to 1700 chapters so don’t be turned away from reviews complaining of slow pace or boring story. It is a good one... more>>

This compared to all the dark angst stories is more simple minded. (Really a variety of stories here) our main is more apathetic like a doll than cold on his own instinct. ... more>>

Nice list! Will keep an eye on this
Something that could fit this would be "Soul of Negary", depending on how much you like it lol
Thanks, appreciate the support (do keep and eye out, constantly finding new novels to add)
Also a good recommendation, I just added it, in the beginning I was contemplating whether I should or shouldn’t add it, but in the end I decided the mc fits a few tags and I have already put other works where the mc barely fits even one tag so in the end I put it. Regardless thank you for the recommendation.
