    Hi there.
    Currently looking for another novel to read, since my reading list is rather empty with a lot of JP translators going MIA ( hope they come back soon )
    Looking for something like :
    1. True Fantasy ( not isekai transported to another world ones please ) and/or Slice of Life and/or Supernatural
    2. JP highly preferred, not that i dislike CN or KR, just my own preferences
    3. Romance is good, a full-blown harem isn't though
    4. No offense, but NTR / Yaoi / Genderbend is not for me. A tinge of Yuri is fine, but not too much
    5. Tragedy tag is a massive plus

    Thanks for reading :)

    Try Supernatural Girlfriend! It's CN but it doesn't really have CN tropes. It seems like what you're looking for.

    Well, actually as long as it is not the normal isekai it's fine ( except the real good isekai fantasy like Hai to Gensou no Grimgal )

    You want a true fantasy from JP but not isekai, you make me confused here. Did you want a supernatural power in modern day, or fantasy world?

    Read CN or KR if you didn't want an Isekai thing. I know why you didn't prefer those novels (CN & KR) should be because you're not used to their naming sense, I'm sure that must be it

    Sorry to make you confused. The one i mean here is something like Kei Sazane's novel. It's not isekai transported trope but it is already on the other world from the start. Low Fantasy is which is located in our own world is fine too. And it doen't need to include all of supernatural, and fantasy and SoL. As long as it includes one of them.

    And about CN and KR, it's not about the naming. I do read some popular ones like ISSTH etc. But i had a bad experience in the past with one of them, hence why i didn't prefer them

    Please make your reading list public.

    How about:
    The Lazy King
    1. Fantasy - It is Isekai BUT has nothing to do with the story other than motivator for MC being lazy (it is never mentioned again and not used at all). He turns into a demon of sloth.
    2. JP
    3. There are some "odd" romances where all of them border crazy obsession (but it takes place in demon world so)
    4. If the male MC just lies there not caring and lets someone do as they please, is that NTR?
    5. It is pretty tragic, end makes you really sad
