General Reading Recommendation Thread (Not Series License Requests)

@Raitoiro thank you for the recommendation, i checked with the summary and a chapter in; however this doesn't seem what i am looking for hehe.. thanks though!
-
@HarmlessDave
Do you happen to have any recommendations similar to FUNA sensei's story ? I am starting on Kuma kuma now and its silly fun as you said !😆 -
@peropero1234 I only watched the anime, but Bofuri: I Don't Want to Get Hurt LN is probably very similar to the feel of potion loli, but probably a little more extreme in the silliness.
-
@peropero1234 All on JNC:
- Tearmoon Empire - For your female MC that bumbles around not knowing what she's doing but everything works out anyways (extremely fun).
- SOAP - For a completed story in 3 volumes with a female MC that helps the isekai'd hero.
- By the Grace of the Gods - MC is isekai'd with cheat abilities but does his best to lead a quiet life anyways.
- Ascendance of a Bookworm - Female MC who is isekai'd with a weak body into a fantasy world and her story of ascending her status in order to read books.
- My Next Life as a Villainess - Female isekai MC who thinks she is in peril but actually makes herself a huge harem of guys and girls.
- Welcome to Japan, Ms Elf - Cozy fun with a Japanese MC who gets the ability to go to a fantasy world and bring an Elf back to Japan every time they go to sleep.
- An Archdemon's Dilemma - Fantasy series with cute interactions between awkward lovebirds, some cool action too.
- Walking My Second Path in Life! - Cute fantasy series where female princess runs away from her captive life to disguise herself and apply to be a squire and eventually a knight. Unfortunately stalled.
-
@peropero1234 I seconded LegitPancake's recommendation of Tearmoon Empire
I would also recommend Altina the Sword Princess: Strong female lead paired with book-loving protagonist, fun banter, political intrigue, clever military tactics, and all around good adventure.
And I have not read this one yet but Gear Drive shares the same snarky protagonist tag with Potion Loli so it might be up your alley.
Hope you find something you really like to tie you over until to the next volume of Potion Loli is available.

@Lily-Garden said in Is there any plans on translating vol 6 I Shall Survive Using Potion ?:
And I have not read this one yet but Gear Drive shares the same snarky protagonist tag with Potion Loli so it might be up your alley.
Unfortunately Gear Drive was
canceledafter 1 volume. 😢 -
@Terabyte Yes, but if @peropero1234 wants a LN with a snarky protagonist, I think Gear Drive may be enough to tide them over until they can get their Potion Loli fix :)

The author does a nice job of showing how being a pet (not really) dog has influenced the MC's thinking.

I'm Looking for a series similar "Why Shouldn’t a Detestable Demon Lord Fall in Love" where the outcast main character finally finds love and maybe a family too. Bonus points if they don't prolong the main character declaring their love for the other character and starting a romantic relationship.
-
@taz2 Well, if you don't mind the rec being an anime, there's My Love Story — admittedly, the strong guy who could beat an entire train full of people is respected by the guys in his class, but the series has a pretty similar vibe in the romance department and the fact that they get the mutual confessions out of the way by episode 4 definitely helps with the resemblance. Of course, the main characters are high schoolers, so no kids, but... I'd say if you like Why Shouldn't a Detestable Demon Lord Fall in Love, My Love Story is worth a shot.

My Love Story
That was a good one.
JNC has Elf Bride which is cute and sometimes darkly funny with the running joke of them describing their horrible childhoods :)
-
Hello. I've been a fan of anime and manga for years but am just getting into light novels. I love romance set in a fantasy setting. So far I've loved An Archdemon's Dilemma: How to Love Your Elf Bride, Hello, I am a Witch and my Crush Wants me to Make a Love Potion! & Apparently it's My Fault That My Husband Has The Head of a Beast. Is there any light novels you would recommend?
-
Hello,
Just a heads up, I have moved your post into this General Recommendation thread.
As for my recommendations:
(I will put my reasons for recommending them in a spoiler tag, however I didn't provide any direct spoilers.)
The Tales of Marielle Clarac is my current favorite romance series.
Doesn't have much of any fantasy element, it is more of a period piece.
For fantasy Romance, I Refuse to Be Your Enemy!.
-
@Rahul-Balaggan Thank you. Those both sound great. I will check them out!
-
@PandaQueen here at JNC: Welcome to Japan Ms. Elf
Sol Press: Why Shouldn’t a Detestable Demon Lord Fall in Love?!
-
@PandaQueen if you're good with a yuri title I would wholeheartedly recommend A Lily Blooms in Another World and Sexiled; both here on JNC and by the same author.
What I particularly like about Sexiled is that stars a couple of badass ladies that take absolutely no sh*t from anyone
Happy reading 😊
-
@PandaQueen Outside of JNC titles, Unnamed Memory has a similar vibe to Hello, I am a Witch.
