    I DON'T REALLY HAVE THE MOTIVATION TO GO UP AND SEARCH FOR ISEKAI NOVELS AND EVEN IF I REALLY DO FIND SOME DECENT NOVELS THE REVIEWS THERE WILL GENERALLY MAKE ME WANT TO DISCONTINUE IT. (AS THEY SAY CURIOSITY ONCE KILLED THE CAT, I JUST CANNOT LEAVE THAT CURSED SPOILER BUTTON LEFT UNTOUCHED. TUT).

    WELL ISEKAI NOVELS TEND TO BE VERY VERY VERY ( IMPORTANT THINGS MUST BE SAID THRICE) CLICHE. THE MC GETS TRANSPORTED, REINCARNATED, SUMMONED ETC WHICH I SOMEHOW TOLERATE BUT~.
    OP MC, EITHER HYPOCRITE MC OR PATHETIC MC , TORTURED MC OR SADISTIC MC, 0 IQ SIDE CHARACTERS, BEAUTIFUL GIRLS WHO DO NOT HAVE EYES FOR OTHERS EXCEPT MC AND WANT TO SLEEP WITH HIM AND SO THE LIST WILL GO ON AND ON.
    (SO I DECIDED FROM NOW ONWARD I'D RATHER READ CREEPY HORRORS RATHER THAN THOSE DISGUSTINGLY SICKLY HAREM ISEKAI NOVELS. WELL SOME PEOPLE'S VIEW HAVE DIFFERENCE AND LOVE THOSE HAREM NOVELS. NO OFFENCE)

    I PREFER ISEKAI NOVELS SUCH AS
    "Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka?"
    "Youjo Senki"
    "EVIL LIKE DUKE HOUSEHOLD"
    "TRASH OF THE COUNT'S FAMILY"
    AND SO ON.
    IT IS VERY REFRESHING.
    Y,KNOW. I REALLY WANNA ESCAPE FROM THE THING CALLED REALITY AND ISEKAI NOVELS USUALLY HELP ME WITH THAT. BUT I DON'T WANT TO BE TOO MUCH ABSORBED IN IT TO NOT BE ABLE TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THE TWO. I WANNA BE ABLE TO SEE MYSELF AS THE CHARACTERS AND STAND IN THEIR POSITION.

    PLEASE RECOMMEND ME SOME ISEKAI WITH COMEDY OR HUMOR OR ADVENTURE, A LITTLE BIT OF FLUFF THAT WON'T AFFECT MUCH WITH THE PLOT LINES.

    Broaden your horizons.
    Read something completely different
    Maybe even stay away from Japanese novels for a while.
    You are doing yourself a disservice.
    Distance makes the heart fonder

    You will enjoy isekai more if you take a break from it.
    Cheers!

    Why the caps tho...??

    Anyway, Instant Death is nice imo, the mc didn't shy away from killing tho he prefer not too, he who fights with monster from RRL and Lord of the Mysteries...

    And oh, it should be on "recommendation" not "other request"

    Reverend Insanity is best isekai adventure

    EDIT: it is a very good novel, but you should have some familiarity with cultivation/eastern fantasy novels for the best experience

    'He Who Fights With Monsters', it is not horror but does contain some slight moments of gore , not a bad novel (so far at least)
    You can also try 'Kuro no Maou' if you didn't, not a bad novel

    Take capslock out of your keyboard. It is a responsibility you're not ready for.

    If you want to avoid harem, you might want to just drop Japanese novels.

    But as requested...
    Overlord

    For less mature
    Konosuba(comedy,harem-ish but not really)

    "Fluff"
    Tensei Shoujo no Rirekisho
    Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear
    Isekai Yururi Kikou


    Chinese:
    Release that Witch(harem-ish but not really, fantasy kingdom-building, modern knowledge)
    Fields of Gold

    western:
    There is no Epic Loot here, Only Puns(comedy, damn adorable)
    Second Life as the Sister of Goddess

    I felt like I was being yelled at the whole time I was reading it. You could try some Andur's stories from RRL. They don't have the harem elements but there's enough wish-fulfillment to escape from reality

    Well, I am male, old but not that old.
    Enjoy your new horizons.

    Well today is your lucky day I happen to know a few manga that will heal you

    https://mangarock.com/manga/mrs-serie-100151368

    https://mangabat.com/manga/serie-1088906123 (one of my faves if you want a non cliche manga then this is it, will certainly heal your broken heart and expectation only after a few chapters)

    https://mangarock.com/manga/mrs-serie-200020480

    https://mangarock.com/manga/mrs-serie-100320844 (you also mentioned about horror and gore then this is the one for you the Illustrations are amazing, coupled with cute protagonist and funny encounters. I must be confusing you lol just check it out yourself)

    https://mangarock.com/manga/mrs-serie-100284207

    https://mangakakalot.com/manga/tn918023

    I completely agree with you if you get tired reading in one genre then switch to another one and so on then go back to that genre and it would feel like your reading something new. Not only that you will understand more about your preferences and discover genres that you are really into
