Protagonists(Male/Female) that just frankly aren't traditional good people and have negative traits, but I just like them anyway. Anti heros, grey moral characters, and even... more>> villains. <<less

I am more of a lurker reader than a commenter and it's hard to find novels that I would really like so I decided to... more>> create this list for those people who want to read novels with amazing female leads such as these.  <<less

Mostly calm and rational mcs who are smart enough to know how to play their cards right if they want to turn the situation into... more>> their favor  <<less

All the High-to-God Tier Novels where the MC is pursuing immortality or invincibility at all costs and is willing to do anything to achieve it.... more>> These MCs aren't bound by typical novel stereotypes as their moral compass is very faint so you will seem them act in unconventional ways. I have at least 100 I can add here but I've aimed to be consistent with the title and only include the best of the best here! Most of these characters are not in romantic relationships and if they are, it's mainly for personal benefit and they don't allow it to hold them back or be used against them. If needed, they will throw them at the enemy and run away. <<less

A collection of the best novels that i read so far.
The list ranks the novels based on the best Main Character (Protagonist).

Whether it be mentally, physically ,or emotionally, these leading ladies are badasses. Strong female leads who either are or become strong in their own rite!

No description.

Top Tier Novels which I have personally read. All of them are worth reading for many reasons. No specific genre, only top quality novels.... more>>

Note: Most focus is given on "fun" element, so even if Translation is bad or novel has some other defects it will still be a quality read. <<less

My favorite kickass female lead stories. These ladies aren't just strong mentally but can beat up most people physically too. ... more>>

I wanted a list that featured physical strength in women because it's reassuring, y'know? <<less

Don't just watch the anime this is epic stuff worth reading

No r*pe, no reverse r*pe, no pregnancy, no first-time interc**rse, no polygamy, no harem

Most of these are bl and are not rank in any particular order

novels I've enjoyed reading with a male mc

"Lord of All Realms" - the MC can fight not just a few levels higher, but with tools almost up to no limit. Besides bloodline skills such as Life Drain, Life Blend are really interesting in use. Close to the end you gonna dive in a cosmology similar to "The Silmarillion" :)... more>>

In "Martial Peak" I like how cunning and unpredictable the MS is. His trumps are unrivalled and numerous, so it always exciting to see which combination he uses to solve a problem. 

"Against the Gods" is a little bit special. The author can really play the soul strings. From time to time, you put down the book and think about and feel it. It manages to evoke quite strong emotions, which is untypical for light novels.

Apparently "Heavenly Silkworm Potato" has written "Battle Through the Heavens", "Wu Dong Qian Kun" and "The Great Ruler" in the given order, actually progressing with every new book. The last one is exceptional. The MC is especially interesting; he never stops surprising you.

The author "Mad Snail" is presented in my list with "Tales of Demons and Gods", "Nine Astra Skies" and "Cult of the Sacred Runes". All three are really cool, especially TDG which has the highest potential, but all of them are unfinished and abandoned (what a pity!). 

I had really good times while reading "Martial God Asura" and "Versatile Mage". But probably these are a bit overextended. <<less

Novels I read and which I think are high-tier.

A list to remind myself to read/finish/reread this novel

Mainleads are scheming or dark past and ruthless or both

Quality Stories with a more dark theme , no romance if possible , absolutely no bl gl yaoi shoune ai  shoujo  josei yuri stuff.... more>>

PS : no. 4.5 " Arrogant Young master template A variation 4" , score : 60 , amazing , meta mc, refreshing trope for a xianxia , and on thr above only it would have gotten 30 points but the execution and cohesion is so well done that it produces synergy,  i had to add 20 , and 10 is my personal bias since this is something new for me. 

Added here since not available on novelupdates ( check royalroad )  <<less

A list with characters who are fond of plotting against their enemies, are uncovering great schemes and/or of characters who are caught in the schemes of their enemies. ... more>>

Stories with big schemes that will make your mind blow and your head dizzy.

Top 17 are some of the most scheming protagonists imo, only the first three are ranked according to whom I belive are the most schemming of all, the other ones were hard to decide qwq, though they are more or less ranked too. Those guys are really cunning...

The ones more at the bottom are, either not soooo schemming or not really schemming at all, they were caught in other people's schemes and conspiracies, don't know if it would be convinient to point them out to differenciate. <<less
