    Can’t seem to find reading list even while clicking around and viewing profile page. But a solid recommendation is The Death Mage That Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time. Among the best things I have ever read (and am still reading). Well worth the look. Could also try Reincarnator or Advent of the Archmage (minor territory building in Archmage, but it is more a means to an end instead of a focus like it is in Release that Witch). I would recommend more, but without viewing reading list, I’d worry about posting things you already have.
    Edit: just remembered this recent golden read Shini Yasui Kōshaku Reijō to Nana-ri no Kikōshi

    When I run out of things to read in nu, I go to rrl and look at the new series in the ranking. When I run out of things to read in rrl, I come back to nu and look at the new series in the ranking.

    I Don't see Shura's Wrath or Womanizing Mage on your list.
    Try them out.

    Not into them. I stay away from mindless harem-shit. ATG has the same author as SW and I rated that 1/5...

    Half of those are on my list already. I've read quite a few of what you listed already and the few that I haven't I've watched the anime/read the manga adaptations. A lot of the novels in that list aren't very good, frankly.

    Try going to the local library and finding the "heechee Rendevous" series. It's been a while since I've read them but they're really good.

    Also the "sword of truth" series by Terry goodkind.

    I will recommend anything I find good/enjoyable (for me) that's not in your reading list, please read the summary and tags and filter them yourself XD
    *after listing* okay, many of them contain romance... or well, I don't really know your preference but note that this is a female's recommendation. But it doesn't contain BL or kingdom building (I think)... I think most of the ones listed here are intended for female audience, but you said anything goes, so...

    Ongoing:
    - Light Beyond
    - Marietta-hime no Konrei
    - Stunning Edge
    - Shinrei Tantei Yakumo
    - Why Harem Intrigue When You Can Just Raise a Dog Instead

    Short stories or completed:
    - (Um, Sorry) I’ve Been Reincarnated!
    - Our Second Master
    - The Probability I Can Kill My Wife Without Being Found Out / A Game to Make Him Fall
    - I Became The Hero's Bride!
    - It Became A Serious Thing
    - Shin Sekai Yori
    - Your Highness, I Know My Wrong!
    - Violet Evergarden
    - Wedding Night, Late Ten Years
    - Bringing the Nation's Husband Home (...if you want to taste frustration from reading the misunderstandings and want a novel with lots of chapters, why not? Well, I love the ending though.)

    *Looks at reading list*

    :blobangery::facepalm:

    Sorry, I was already in a bad mood. I count around 20 novels in your reading list. Look at mine. 641. There's no way flipping way you're running out of things to read.

    I'd suggest you pick a genre or field of novel types to read and get hooked on and binge. It's a better way to start and find your way out of what I called reader's inertia or the novel selection pit than just picking a single novel to try out of a list full of different recommendations.

    • Side Character Transmigrations: The Final Boss is No Joke
    • Quick Transmigration: Heroine Arrives, Woman Rapidly Retreats!
    • Quick Transmigrating Second Female Lead’s Counterattack
    • Quick Transmigration Cannon Fodder’s Record of Counterattacks



    There's more like Otome JP novels, cute cheat female MC JP novels, second chance VRMMORPG CNs, poor to rich KRs VRMMORPG, typical cheat and harem male MC isekai, politics/schemes court yard FMC CN transmigration, game world to real world CNs, modern knowledge, cultivation in modern world, etc. PM me if you want more recs or genre recs.
