Ongoing list.  If you're looking for some sad or dramatic stuff (with a HE). 
Some have a lighter tone than others. But all of these contain elements like ~complicated relationships, dogblood drama, tragic pasts, betrayal, or deaths. ... more>>

All of these have English translations. 

I have them sorted by genre

1-5: modern setting 6-7: world hopping novels8-13: xianxia 
14-18: more general fantasy or primarily historical  <<less

An ongoing list. I'll add more as I find/read them. If anyone has any suggestions for good ones please lmk!! ... more>>

Trying to only include novels with completed translations. There is one exception on this list, but a large part of it is translated and there's readable MTL for the last part.

I'm going to include a little "Is it actually 1v1?" note on each one, since it's pretty common that the harem ends up just being one guy lol and it can be nice to know in advance imo.  <<less

A list of BL works with Tragedy, Angst and Drama.... more>>

The levels of pain may vary and the time the angst last too; some may have just a few chapters or an arc of it, a little shorter, but meaningful (painful qwq) enough to be in these list. Others may have an (torture) of angst. (There is practically no dogblood-type of angst, only for a few exceptions.

I will rate them from 1-4 depending on the amount of tragedy or angst they have and how they hit (according to me, at least >.<

1 Being little (side characters tragic stories amd few chapters of pain) angst.

2 Main characters tragic past/story, etc. few chapters.

3 Several chapter or an arc of a Main or important character's suffering, physical or emotional.

4 Suffering prolonged for longer time, emotionally or physically, provoking an severe impact in the way the character sees the world and interacts with it.

Could be HE, BE or OE, however all are satisfyingly painful. <<less

List contains novels that have tags and/or summaries that caught my interest. I may have read them. I may not have. ... more>>

No particular order.  <<less

Just some of my favorite reads

A loves B, C hates D, but is it really the truth?... more>>

Hidden plot! Onion layer BL where the story is slowly uncovered, or narrative holes being fixed when one element changed. <<less

Reincarnation and transmigration. A character dies and is reborn, but in another body.

Ordered by the most recent novels read first.... more>>

This list contains danmei I've read, or plan to read, which coincidentally also means that most of them are non-isekai, since I am really not a fan of this genre.

HOWEVER, I am making an exception for certain novels where the reincarnation plot, or the knowledge of the future, is an actual plot point and not just there for the sake of it.

Additionally I don't really read slice of life and school life. Just not my cup of tea. Sooooo... most of the novels listed here are historical, fantasy or sci-fi. Just a heads-up. <<less

Only book world ...... more>>

Just some novels I've read. My expectation for novels aren't that high and the ratings below are just my own opinion. But at least I've read through close to the entire novel or latest chapter (as of the last updated) before giving my thoughts. Last updated: 16/10/2023... more>>
