    I want to ask is there any Jap books with a serious mc? Bcs for as long as I read JN, there are none.
    Before this I was interested in a book where in the summary it was told that the mc was a lone and revenge seeking warrior where his nation was betrayed by it's ally, his family, his mother, little sister and his dragon was also killed. I thought it was a good reading material but it turned out to be a book with another wishi washi mc

    that's cheating

    As for my Recommendation, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, sadly you have to buy the novels or just watch its adaptation, which for me is a masterpiece.

    Oh there's Fate Zero which is worth to check out, but there are no clear mc, it's closer to game of thrones.

    It is acceptable if there is comedic scene in the novel but the MC pretty much serious all the time?

    Then I recommend Genjitsugisha

    Comedy scenes in the novel are acceptable, what I mean is MCs that are (how to phrase it...) indecisive, wimpy, and so on....
    And one more, novels that are not filled with sound effect such as "doku,doku", "gabu", etc.
