    I feel like This thread has an awful lot of serious Kumo Desu spoilers.

    But I would like to mention that Shiro has a rather fine difference from the "Law of the Jungle"

    Her motto on this is that one needs strength to ensure ones freedom and survival and lack of it leaves you to the whims of the world around you, which is quite a bit different from the typical bully mentality that commonly goes with the "Strong survive, the weak die"

    Shiro's mentality comes from a realist point of view of the whole situation and, well, her own laziness in not wanting to have to convince others through charisma , discussion, and typical MC HOOHRAH shit as to why the majority of the world's inhabitants are going to have to die to save the world, or pretty much have everyone but a select few die because everyone else's souls collapse.

    Monsters are not humans so why should they act like one...

    http://www.novelupdates.com/series/astartes-knight/ <- not many chapters so far, but pretty humane zombie.
    http://www.novelupdates.com/series/demon-girl-tale-of-a-lax-demon/ <- This is borderline moral imo.
    http://www.novelupdates.com/series/kuma-kuma-kuma-bear/ <- technically not a bear, but practically a bear.
    http://www.novelupdates.com/series/spirit-migration/ <- Humane, but I'm not sure if this can be considered monster reincarnation. The translation seems to have stopped, but I saw manga version continuing on.
    http://www.novelupdates.com/series/the-lazy-king/ <- Demon reincarnation. Not sure if you can call him moral since he doesn't do much and there's only one "human" character.
    http://www.novelupdates.com/series/yuusha-party-no-kawaii-ko-ga-ita-no-de-kokuhaku-shite-wn/ <- humane/moral demon reincarnation. Haven't seem too much development yet to tell if it's really good.

    Ok. this one seems intresting, but can someone PLEASE explain what is up with these translations? its all over the place, skips DOZENS of Chapters, etc etc. Why would you translate chp 145 when you've not done chp 45? Am I missing something here?!

    If you don't mind royalroad. The first three take the monsters evolving part from Re:Monster, and all three have female MCs. (the third one doesn't say until a few chapters in) There were others but most weren't updated for a long while.
    Re: Harpy http://royalroadl.com/fiction/5023
    Not many chapters but they are a good length, and it started to update again. The MC isn't evil or a dick, hell most of the time shes nice, and shy but lets just the world isn't nice to her. I advised checking out the spoiler.
    The MC gets blessed by the great goddessof the wind(or air) and this causes her feathers to change to green marking she was blessed by the goddess. She ends up kidnapped by a group from her harpy village including the leader. Thanks to her healing fast thekidnappers spend every day removing her nails, feathers, and draining some of her blood to sell to the other harpies. She does escape but it leaves her messed up. She is a nice shy person but thanks to the torture if a fight goes too long or bad she is basically a berkserker.

    The Daily Diary of a Mushroom http://royalroadl.com/fiction/4629
    The only problem I had with this one it spent too long in one section but its past that part now. The MC is far from evil or cruel but she does start to love her battles.

    They said I could become anything so I became a _____!!! http://royalroadl.com/fiction/5323
    A nice kind MC again but like the first one the world isn't so nice at times. Unlike the first one there are a lot more happy moments, and not as dark.

    Is it Reincarnation if I'm Still Dead? http://royalroadl.com/fiction/6051
    The MC isn't evil but the author has set it up if the MC isn't careful he can turn into a mindless killing machine. Doubt it would happen but it is one of the struggles the MC is learning to fight or deal with.

    Oh yeah, that translator's chapters are kinda weirdly set, so I haven't started on the web novel version yet. Here, try the light novel version. It's quite well organized, but the translation is currently stopped. http://www.novelupdates.com/series/yuusha-party-no-kawaii-ko-ga-ita-no-de-kokuhaku-shite/

    If I had to single out a persoanlity type, it would be Similar to what you seen in [Akuyaku Reijo Ni Koi Wo Shite]. He is not Mr Do-Good, but he'd not just kick the puppy because it looked at him funny. if that makes any sense.
