Worldbuilding - "the process of constructing a world, originally an imaginary one, sometimes associated with a fictional universe." These kinds of manga are usually set in a fantasy and/or sci-fi world, and excel at establishing & showcasing the rules/history/economy of their fictional universe. List was created through collective data from multiple websites of people's answers as to what manga are considered to have great world building.

Number of sales and date that number was acquired from in notes for each. Some of them I have personally estimated a higher figure than the date says.

No. 98 is Gaki Deka, but I couldn't find it. It has sold 30 million (November 16th, 2017), and was made by Tatsuhiko Yamagami and the publisher is Akita Shoten.

No. 99 says Jingi, but it seems to be Tachihara Ayumi's other work Maji! due to the dates and amount of volumes.

Manga featured in a bundle during January 2019.

Some know no struggle, others know it all too well. Underfoot, repeatedly, as if they were the dirt of a well trodden path, they were trampled.

Sacrificed, suffering in silent solitude> Someone who has seen the final scene. Amidst filtration, obfuscation, and manipulation; they remain steadfast, striving to change that final scene.

Is such hope delusion? Fated for demise, an unsightly end awaits them. Racing towards Death, trapped in a vehicle with no escape. On the fast-track, straight to Death's embrace. Is such a destiny really set in stone?

Condemned, some grimace, some laugh, madly... mockingly... derisively...have they finally broken...or do they somehow have a feasible plan?

True warriors reject their fate, relentless is their will; carving their own path, beating an unbeatable game.

Radiant heroes etch their names into the annals of time, solemnly, they stand in face of oblivion.

Elusive individuals lurk behind the curtains; the audience unable to discern them. Only the fallacious is reflected in their eyes.

They move with intent, causing great upheaval and catastrophe, leaving only confusion in their wake.

Those at the peaks wage war against one another, while those on the ground trudge about, eking out a simple life; their legend lost.

Leaders of incomprehensible foresight and astounding incompetence. The chasers and the chased. Wanderers, the vengeful, the lost, the driven, the lucky, the edgy, the powerful; find them here.

Such stories can be found here. This list includes a variety of different flavors of power fantasy.

Unlike others lists that jumble together series the stack creator hasn't yet read, I have personally hand picked light novels that I've deemed to be entertaining (subjective). Your next binge read is here.

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)

these are all isekai manga/manhwa/novels that could be considered at minimum 'good'
(btw some of these are not objectively good and are just subjectively good so be warned)
