    Great list, only one I disagree with is Ecstas Online. It's a good series imo, I love how the author managed to make a series with an interesting plot(the mysteries and twists were really nice) mixed with le*dness, plus, MC's character development was good too.

      damn I didn't think anyone would actually read this list, thanks for commenting! tbh my problem with ecstas online is that past a certain point, I started losing interest and wasn't really invested in what happened next. I think if the story was shorter and faster paced, I would have liked it a lot more

      @NemCraft Fair enough, I prefer stories with slower pace tbh, and I personally think it was a good thing that the pace in Ecstas was like that since aside from the le*d, the focus is more in the mystery about what is actually happening and Kakeru's development. I do have to say that volumes 5-8 are more fast paced than the previous ones tho, I guess if it had received a full manga adaptation, you probably would have enjoyed it more, it does strike me as a series that would be more interesting to some if it was a manga instead of a novel. In any case, thanks for the list, the choices were pretty nice!
