Are you tired of the usual light novel experience full of generic tropes and unispired writing? Here are some books that are entertaining to read through and through.

excludes fgo

Manga/LNs with intertwining plots. They feature large casts/many different groups of people moving independently but simultaneously to form one larger plot, and actions taken by characters/groups influence others (Narita Ryohgo is a master at this; a lot of the titles on this list are written by him). May involve frequent POV shifts and may have a non-linear plot.

I asked ChatGPT for the top 50 best light novels, here is what I got (couldnt write "top 50 light novel" in title as it wouldnt let me post it public)

Well, part two. This one will cover all the Fate series outside of Fate/Grand Order.
For some reason MAL don't have Fate/Requiem and Fate/Lost Einherjar (Light Novels), soooo add those in your heart... or send them a message saying that we want those two to be added :^)
No special order btw, I really hate that kind of thing. Enjoy!

Also, among Fate timelines there are a lot continuities. So I put from what "world tree" is every work.

Fate/stay night Remastered Visual Novel is officially in english on Steam and Nintendo Switch. Give it a try if you like the Fate/stay night mangas!

Also Fate/Extella and Fate/Extella Link (pseudo-sequels to Fate/Extra) are on steam and PS4. Also also, Fate/Samurai Remnant on steam and PS4. Also also also, Emiya-san cooking game is on Nintendo Switch.

Ranked by order of when they first got a spot in the top 10 (or were scored above a 9). Description will have the day they first entered along with the rank they attained and what score, along with the highest rank and score it attained. Note: The highest score isn't necessarily the score it had when it had the peak rank.

Found with the Wayback Machine. MAL didn't always have manga; the earliest crawl on the archive is on July 13, 2007.

Some things worth noting: In the span of 16 years, only four manga have had the #1 spot, with the lion's share of the time holding the title belonging to Berserk. Berserk has been in the top 10 since day one and has not left it once. One Piece and Fullmetal Alchemist have also spent the majority of the time in the top 10, however they were pushed out temporarily a few times.

There used to be rankings for Original English Language (OEL) manga, or western comics mimicking the style of a manga. All OELs were pruned from the database in 2016, likely due to them being difficult to define.

Light novels and non-light novels used to be rolled into one Top Novels section, however they split them up in early 2021.

While the Doujinshi tab has been there since 2008, a few years ago all of the doujins that were parodies of other series were removed, leaving just original hentai and BL works and scant few other entries. RIP to the days of the top doujins tab being half Naruto x Sasuke fanworks.

Of the 47 series on this list, 12 don't have an anime adaptation (though Battle Royale has both a live action and a manga adaptation), 15 have an incomplete one with little hope of receiving a continuation/remake, 9 that are currently being animated (including the Rurouni Kenshin remake), 8 with completed adaptations and the remaining 3 are manga adaptations of anime. I'm counting Jojo Part 7 as not having one since there's been no announcement yet (though it's only inevitable for it to be animated) and Nausicaa and Akira as incomplete despite their respective movies technically reaching the end of the source material due to how much they left out. Also worth noting that Fruits Basket and Fullmetal Alchemist initially had incomplete adaptations that were later remade into complete ones, along with Rurouni Kenshin, whose remake is currently being animated.

Of the 47 titles on this list, 11 are currently unfinished/still in publication. This is including Vagabond, which is officially on hiatus and will likely never receive a proper ending, and not including Jojo's Bizarre Adventure and Rurouni Kenshin, which are still being published through The Jojolands and The Hokkaido Arc, but are still their own separate series.

Also includes titles where the licencing wasn't cancelled oficially but no new volume has been released in English for years despite existing in the original language, and cases when the publisher went defunct before completing the series. Novels/manhwa/manhua etc. count too.


Let me know if there is some update to any of the titles listed or if some needs to be added.

Also this is a personal call-out for Dark Horse, pick up your damn manga.
