    Looking for any series recommendations where the main character the reader follows is the gong/point of view is the gong. Or if there's no distinct shou/gong dynamic (they switch) that's good too. A little tired of reading about stereotypical helpless-in-the-face-of-gong shou MC, ultra-domineering gong ML.

    Vanguard of the Eternal Night is a good one. The gong gets transported into the the future where virtual reality and he completes in this combat game. Showing off his skills he learnt from his past lifes and on the way the win the championship.

    The shou is such a cinnamon bun and becomes a blushing mess anything related to the gong.

    Thanks for all the recs so far! I've read Rebirth as a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler before and liked it. I tried reading Vanguard of the Eternal Night and the shou is cute, but the MC was so overpowered it was a little hard to read. I'll make sure to check out the rest!

    The Husky and His White Cat Shizun! It's by Priest so you know it's great. Speaking of, I'd rec Sha Po Lang, another Priest novel. It's got steampunk aesthetic, awesome worldbuilding, a deaf/blind love interest, and a gong protag.
    Also, I never got far into it cause it wasn't really my thing, but Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial Being is supposed to be good? Anyway I'd read the tags for all of these cause some of the content might not be up your alley.

    Thanks for all the additional recs! I've read The Wife Is First, Stone Age Husband Raising Journal, and Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial Being before, relatively liked them. I've started reading The Husky and His White Cat Shizun, seems good so far!
