AHHHHH one of my faves everrrr! Although it's not fully translated (and I haven't gone ahead and read the raws either), I haven't yet read... more>> a QT that can beat this one just yet. One of my favourite arcs was the ice skating arc - the side CP was so cute, and ofc, I totally ship the main CP!!!!  <<less

Read this quite a while ago (at the beginning-ish of my light novel journey), but I remember loving it so so much! I really enjoyed... more>> it when the MC got stronger through training himself and hard work, as opposed to receiving some non-sensical OP power-up that somehow just fell into his lap.  <<less

LOOOVE THIS! Their interactions are so hilarious and funny before they got together and even after they did get together, the hilarity DIDN'T STOP! For... more>> reals, I feel like some novels are good... up until the CP gets together. You know what I mean? Like, after they get together, everything I liked about the characters individually (their independence, character quirks, etc) and together (their fun/entertaining interactions, the cute, fluffy, tense moments that actually made my heart pound) disappear, and even when they're together in the same scene, I can't feel the same tension and/or affection anymore because it's all tastelessly shoved in my face like actual dog food... then I just don't feel like shipping them anymore, and nor do I have any motivation to continue reading. Yeah... that was a bit of a rant, but anyhow, this novel DOESN'T DO THAT! It doesn't feel like it's dragging on after they get together and it's still humorous and sweet!  <<less

I love this! I really like the MC and his quirks, especially his unbeatable acting prowess! It's a bit of a super OP skill but... more>> hey, it's the MC we're taking about so... I'll take it!  <<less

Ahem... a bit of shameless self-promotion here, but speaking as the translator for this novel, I really liked it! This power couple, especially the MC,... more>> was super cool, and the ML was super respectful! Their dynamics are super cute and entertaining to read, and it also discusses some heavier issues such as the responsibilities of public figures to inspire others who may not have had the same opportunities they do. Also, the MC works really hard to improve, he doesn't just receive some nonsensical powerup, so there's a reason he gets more and more OP!  <<less

This one is so cuuuuteeee!!!! the shadiao ML is actually so funny and the MC gets really cute after the first couple of chapters as... more>> well... Currently my fav school/uni life novel I've read, LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! <<less

LOOOOVE THIS! (binged all 160-something chaps in like, 2 days) All they cases they solve from some very limited clues are so interesting -- I... more>> think this has to be the best detective/case/mu*der mystery novel I've ever read. Also the main CP goes so well together! (Although on 1 occasion the ML was a tad bit more forceful than I would have liked, there is literally nothing else to nitpick about them) <<less

Strong FL! tbh, the novel's ending was a little ehhhh... But I really love all the interstellar/mecha/highly dangerous underground competitions/school tournament stuff! (Although the FL... more>> was just a tiny bit illogically OP, I'll turn a blind eye to it :P) <<less

Should I say the MC is so exceptionally narcissistic that he literally fell for himself and worked hard for their HE? Haha jkjk, there's an actual (though still somewhat sketchy) explanation for it. Welp, anyhow, this was a wild ride and I enjoyed every second of it. ... more>>

(question though: is it in*est if you fell in love with yourself? :P) <<less

Side note... not 100% respectful, but what can I say... I just ship them so so so so much!!! they're so cute together!!!! 

Gong perspective... super cute and respectful relationship! I daresay it'll rank top three in "respectful and equal MC/ML relationship" in all the novels on this... more>> list!  <<less

cuuuute!!! I'm a sucker for strong/hard-working and self-confident Os and this was it!

Was pretty good! *slight spoiler alert (not too spoilery cus It's in the tags as well but like... just in case)... more>>

I laughed so much at all of ML's cross-dressing sections, it was definitely one of the highlights that secured this book a place in my "faves" list! :P

Also, the only thing negative thing I have to say about this book is that the "horror" relied solely on gore and blood. I would have liked it even more if the "horror" was more... how should I say this... sophisticated? psychologically thrilling? dunno... but anyhow, it was a pretty enjoyable read! <<less

Has to be one of the best done online gaming/streamer genre BL I've read. It's also the first one I've read so I wasn't that... more>> familiar with this genre, but the ones after just didn't really click for me like this one did. Tbh though... I still didn't like this novel as much as some of the others in this list, but I guess I'll put a modern/gaming/kinda typical rich ML novel in here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Hey, rich-MLs are popular for a reason, amirite? <<less

The magician thing rocks!

ok... before y'all come at me for lying, this wasn't 100% respectful/equal (cus yandere), but it's within an acceptable margin for me. What I really... more>> loved about this novel was how much it made me laugh - seriously, I was laughing at my phone screen at like, 2am in the morning and I couldn't stop! <<less

This novel is formatted very differently to literally all other novels -- I was a little unused to it in chapter 1 or so, but... more>> I got used to it really quickly and the unique formatting just made it all the more hilarious! <<less

In the same universe as PUBG online romance of the century! The characters make cameos every now and then :) This novel is another pretty... more>> good online romance / gamer romance trope, and I think this author does it better than works from other authors I've read. This novel was also super cute and I wasn't bored at the end! Same comment as PUBG online romance of the century tho.  <<less

Ok just finished reading this, and I kind-of-really liked it! It kinda dragged on a little in the middle but the last 30 chapters or... more>> so was absolutely riveting! The respectful-ness level was ok considering the ML is pretty much a yandere, and the CP's really really shippable, unlike some tastelessly dominating and obsessive yanderes. I love scheming power couples and hilarious identity reveals, and this does it really well! Also, ghost things aren't usually to my taste, but surprisingly, I really liked it in this novel :))) <<less

The world-building in this novel was really unique and well developed. You can find the full translated novel on CG (chrysanthemum garden) - some chapters... more>> are password locked, but the password is on discord! Tbh not really my top faves, but it does have best world-building I've seen so far in webnovels - most likely cus it's based on HP Lovecraft's novels, but still, its okay i guess haha. So yeah, not really "fave", but I thought it deserved a place on this list because of the memorable world-building :) <<less
