If you liked Gourmet Gaming add

...then you might like Reader add

Do you like promising and initially enjoyable stories that are later bogged down with repetitiveness and a drawn out plotline that feels pointless? Then you would like both of these virtual reality series that focuses on a protagonist with an interesting quirk or mental disorder that benefits them heavily in the game that they are playing. Virtual reality manhwas are not exactly gold, but they can provide some braindead entertainment. The protagonist that either can't stop reading or can't stop eating allows said protagonist the ability of whatever the developers thought was a good idea, and later causing a power imbalance that leaves me surprised on how the games that they are developing aren't losing players. Like, most virtual reality manhwas that don't have any crazy supernatural aspects baffle me in how the developers thought it was a good idea for special classes that allow for broken exploits or a player advantage so high that it must not be fun to be at the receiving end of said advantage. "Reader" and "Gourmet Gaming" are very similar in their mediocrity.

If you liked A Man's Man add

...then you might like The Legendary Return add

Both are similar in the regression in modern times trope, where the main characters are striving for success in a modern setting. Whereas regression in fantasy involves saving the world or getting revenge on the ones that wronged you, "A Man's Man" and "The Legendary Return" focuses on accomplishing a dream of wealth. Of course, there are chapters that do focus on retribution in both series, the whole setting is based mostly on reality. Although "A Man's Man" is more convoluted than that and "The Legendary Return" is admittedly worse in some aspects, like art and motivations; both can achieve satisfaction if anyone is interested in this trope. Also, the main characters are similar in how they deal with their obstacles, as they are ruthless and use modern and realistic means to deal with their problems. I will clarify that the main character in "The Legendary Return" cannot even compare to the main character of "A Man's Man". The plot is kind of similar, but don't bring the expectation of reading similar protagonists.

If you liked Demon King of the Royal Class add

...then you might like The Extra's Academy Survival Guide add

Both series involve an academy or institution that the main character has to endure. Tribulations and story events always prevent a peaceful school experience, and both have main characters thrust into a fictional world that they have extensive knowledge of. I am not sure if "Demon King of the Royal Class" is actually a harem, but I do think they both fit in a harem category. A lot of girls interact with both main characters. Both series are extremely good, and I don't know which is better, but I do like how "Demon King of the Royal Class" builds up its important events and the ability that the main character has is such an unique and cool ability.

If you liked I Killed the Main Player add

...then you might like The Extra's Academy Survival Guide add

Both series have the main character know the events of the future, which is common in most series that have regression or an isekai that involve a game that the main character knows. Both main characters have knowledge of the game that they are playing, and they both want the best outcome of their stories. Both have harems, where the characters that they save feel affection for the main character. The main characters grow and develop, and they have enjoyable and entertaining personalities. The side characters have their own growth and notable moments, where the main character sometimes rely on the side characters to progress further. Both have interesting plots and can provide a great deal of fun while reading. I will say that The Extra's Academy Survival Guide is better in my opinion, but both series are a good baseline 7 or above.

If you liked Ningen Fushin no Boukensha-tachi ga Sekai wo Sukuu you desu add

...then you might like Kindan Shitei de Breakthrough: Boy Meets Satan add

Both have disappointing endings. Well, in all seriousness, both have great plots that weren't finished thoroughly. Boy Meets Satan has the main character go through his own trials to overcome his weakness, but is still shunned for his efforts, which is kind of similar to Apparently, Disillusioned Adventurers Will Save the World, where the efforts of the main characters are shunned and they have to go through their own trials to overcome their issues. Of course, both sets of heroes have no necessary reason to save the world, as they were cast out from humanity, but they still strive for what they believe in. Really wished both series had a chance to continue, but I guess the advertising had to come to an end.

If you liked Heavenly Demon Reborn! add

...then you might like Volcanic Age add

Both series are similar with the "new life" aspect, where Volcanic Age has regression, whereas Heavenly Demon Reborn has possession. Both are martial arts and murim focused, and the main characters train extensively to become as strong as they are. Revenge is integral for both the motivations of the main characters, allowing them both to gain high positions in their respective societies. I just like how the main characters train to get stronger, using their previous experiences to have an advantage against their opponents. Volcanic Age has tints of harem, whereas Heavenly Demon Reborn pushes romance to the side, so either can satisfy one's interests. Both are dang long too.

If you liked Shangri-La Frontier: Kusoge Hunter, Kamige ni Idoman to su add

...then you might like Destiny Unchain Online: Kyuuketsuki Shoujo to Natte, Yagate "Aka no Maou" to Yobareru you ni Narimashita add

The series are similar due to the VR aspect and the world-building. I like the main characters of both series, and the way that both series explore the virtual world is a great plot device. I love how they explore game mechanics, and the side characters add more depth and entertainment. Although Destiny Unchain Online doesn't explore the story of the virtual world as deeply than Shangri-La Frontier, both series are great if you want a good VR series to read.

If you liked Kusuriya no Hitorigoto add

...then you might like Unnamed Memory add

Unnamed Memory and Kusuriya no Hitorigoto have both smart girls as main protagonists and interesting plotlines to follow. The mystical powers, or the abundant amount of knowledge, that both female leads possess, create an interesting story that hooks you in. Kusuriya no Hitorigoto, or The Apothecary Diaries, really creates a more realistic environment compared to Unnamed Memory. Arguably more tense, I think if you enjoyed Unnamed Memory, you should read The Apothecary Diaries if you already haven't.
