    For me it’s Chronicles of Primordial Wars, Instant Kill, God of Thunder, Great Dao Commander, Shrouding the Heavens, and Jiu Shen.

    DaiDenYuuDen because it's dead. Kaze no Stigma because its author's dead. Hyouketsu Kyoukai no Eden and Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi are also dead. Likewise for Elvenblood. I miss my fix of horror/gore.

    Hot damn, someone else with good taste. Why'd you remind me of these? D:

    God of Thunder was so good, with a great translator. Sadface.

    I finished reading these novels years ago, or more or less 5 - 6 years ago using Google Translate, but even now these novels are still stuck on where I left them off, they barely move when it comes to the translation, 5 - 6 years and the translated chapters only amount to 100 chapters or less.
    Chronicles of Primordial Wars, God of Thunder, Instant Kill, Tempered Immortal

    As someone who loves gender bender, almost 90% of the stuff out there is basically like that!
    Like Gender Bent Loli Is Not Cute! The first couple of chapters were so good but it's probably never getting translated.
    And so is My Best Friend Became A Transsexual Girl, And Says He Wants to Marry Me, But I’ll Flat Out Refuse.
    There are so many like this in my reading list.

    Actually, this thread of yours reminded me of these and now I really wanna read it again! It's so painful to know these are completed but I'll probably never get to read it...unless I learn the language. BUT I HAVE TO LEARN TWO FUCKING LANGUAGES (ONE OF WHICH IS CONSIDERED THE HARDEST LANGUAGE TO LEARN IN THE WORLD)!!

    Also, the author of Kenkyo, Kenjitsu o Motto ni Ikite Orimasu seems to have been in a hiatus for the longest time. And it had to be the one villainess novel I liked that has to be like this. (...actually, I like a lot of villainess novels...but this one was still my favorite.)

    Haha.
    Funny story, I tried translating these novels. Translated a few chapters with pitiful amount of views, so I dropped it.
    Months later some readers commented that I resume. I checked their Disqus history and they had been reading the novels on a pirate website.
    I would be an idiot to continue lol

    That’s mostly because the design of your site is bad. It’s alright to have pages at least with novels that have longer than average chapters. But in your case even normal length chapters get pages plus the button for the next page just can’t be found I tried time and time again (on mobile to ad) to find the next page button but I only get sent straight to the next chapter.

    Excuses smexcuses, the pirate websites are copying the same pages too.
    You need to come up with a better excuse.
    It has gotten very old.
