    The first time I read a book with a Male MC was The Legendary Mechanic. Although the book is only decent, it got me hooked. Can you reccomend books with Male MCs? I'd prefer it as not bl, or if there's no romance. It doesn't even have to be like TLM, Thanks!

    The Optimistic Heroes(4 male mc's who was joking and living like brothers in Jianghu.)
    Chen Yue Zhi Yao(hilarious ordinary man who live in underworld and hate his talking-rubbish mouth.)
    Fu Xing Dong Lai(set's in high school with adorable teens doing adorable friendship + Fantasy and folklore theme.)
    Rebuilding Base is Under Construction(it's easy to mtl with series of misunderstanding and comedy to the top. "The warden is still poor as of today XD".)

    But the description who seems the fittest for you is The Optimistic Heroes. You don't regret reading it, i tell you.

    Legend of Sun Knight. Fantasy. Absolute classic, one of the most hilariously sarcastic yet powerful MCs ever.

    The Yu Brothers’ Case Book. Supernatural/mystery/horror. While there is a main character, the supporting characters also have unique personalities and play essential roles to the story as well. Focused a lot on the reason behind why people commit murder and the grey areas of the justice system.

    Unique Legend. Magic academy. Hilarious MC suddenly thrown into a fantasy world to discover and accept a new reality.

    Chen Yue Zhi Yao +1. Fantasy/transmigration/rebirth. One of the most unique MC premises I’ve ever seen and with an amazingly complex plot too.

    Fu Xing Dong Lai +1. Monster/magic academy. Heartwarming story of MC finding his place and overcoming trials with friends.

    The Real Awakening. Psychological/thriller/gore. An extremely dark series that explores how human greed and corruption can easily lead to their downfall.

    No Hero. Supernatural/futuristic. Journey or a vampire MC finding a reason to continue living.

    Residence of Monsters. Monster/magic academy. Tons of comedy, but with a deeper, darker plot hidden behind.

    Check it out if you want a pretty good written main character, pretty classic at the beginning but it gets good fast. There are some parts which are slow going but everything is usually very important to the plot so don't skip if if you can. Really great power sistem too as it actually explains the fundamentals on how it works rather than just going with it.
    Others wich are also good include Lord of the Mysteries +1, Warlock of the Magus World +1, Way of the Devil, hell app, kill the hero, the protagonists are murdered by me, emperor has returned, the great mage returns after 4000 years (it gets a bit confusing at the end), Carefree Path of Dreams, fatal shot, Regressor Instruction Manual and finally My Disciples Are All Villains. I hoped this helped.

    In the past I've only read books centered in romance and transmigration/reincarnation with female MCs. In the past months I've been dabbling on different genres, I'm a fetus when it come to stories with male MC's. Thanks for the recommendations! Definitely will check it out!
