    You can try visual novels for variety, when you get too fed up.

    Edit: You can try Kieli, it's complete with 9 volumes if you haven't read it yet.

    Well for the Japanese side at least, it's even become a meme that they're "betas" in harem romances.

    But addressing your rant, one problem with what we're reading is that it's all light novels and web novels, which is only 1 'tier' above fanfiction. Not many people are translating *actual* Japanese literature.

    That's why a lot of these stories are so heavily involved in wish fulfillment. It's these authors directly putting their themselves in situations that they want.

    Some people might be like "well what about -----" but the vast majority of novels on this site are less than 3 stars. Those are the ones I'm talking about

    Read English/American novels. The change will be refreshing. And then when it gets too much just switch back to C/J/K novels~

    When you are actually paying for the novel is when you can actually complain about this. !!!

    Until then read the stories with thanks or don't bother reading.!!!

    As for the rest if something is popular people will do the same thing to have their story popular as well and that will last until it is not popular anymore.

    Well, what to do? most novels with complete original plot won't be as popular with the readers who are used to the same 'cliché' MC whether males or females :blobsweat: so, try to search more I guess :blobdizzy:? :blobsmilehappy:

    Exactly!!!! You're spot on!

    shoo! don't drag me down the rotting hole of bl!

    i do i do, just complaining about the novels i have seen take over. if this goes on, the romance genre is gonna become a joke.

    *sprays holy water*
    dear god i seek your protection from the temptations of nyan sempai..

    I've been searching for ages already, all that pops up is a clone of a story i have read.. TwT

    The big issue here is the romanticising of absolutely disgusting behaviour from both genders... it makes my skin crawl damn..

    Oh well, I've already started reading some villainess girl josei's.

    A while longer and I can see BL as smth I try "as a joke", and then it isn't anymore.

    Gateway theory ftw.
