21 Novels

Adventure reincarnation pairs exploration narratives with protagonists who bring memories from previous lives. The reincarnation provides motivation and sometimes foreknowledge, while adventure supplies the journey structure. Protagonists often seek to use their second chance by exploring their new world more thoroughly than before.

The combination spans origins and settings. Some protagonists explore worlds they knew from their previous life, others discover entirely new territories. The adventure element works well with reincarnation because protagonists have reasons to seek out specific locations or opportunities.

Kim Dok-Ja does not consider himself the protagonist of his own life. Befitting the name his parents gave him, he is a solitary person whose sole hobby is reading web novels.
First Impressions
"Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint" is a wild ride, and I can definitely see why it's garnered so much attention. It’s the type of story that grabs you and refuses to let go, throwing you headfirst into a world that's both familiar and utterly bizarre.

4.4
(1.9K ratings)
Genre: action, adventure, comedy
The world where the Hero and the Demon King continue to oppose each other. The grand magic from the Hero and the Demon King cross over worlds and exploded in the classroom of a certain high school.
First Impressions
"Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka?" is a web novel that took me on quite the ride. It's a reincarnation story with a twist, throwing our protagonist into the body of a spider monster in a deadly labyrinth. While the initial premise might sound familiar, the execution is anything but typical. Initially, I was hooked by the unique perspective of a spider navigating a dangerous world. The early chapters focus heavily on survival, grinding, and skill acquisition. Some might find this part slow-paced, and even repetitive, but I found it quite entertaining, especially with the main character's internal monolog...

4.4
(1.6K ratings)
Genre: action, adventure, comedy

First Impressions
I dove into "To Be a Power in the Shadows!" with a healthy dose of curiosity, and I've come out the other side with quite a few thoughts. This web novel is definitely... something. It's a wild ride that blends action, comedy, and fantasy in a way that's both incredibly entertaining and, at times, utterly baffling. Initially, I was hooked by the premise. The idea of a protagonist who's convinced he's living out a chuunibyou fantasy, only for it to actually be real, is comedy gold. The early chapters had me laughing out loud. It's a unique twist on the isekai genre, and I appreciated the author'...

First Impressions
"I’m the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!" is a web novel that certainly sparks a range of opinions, and after diving in, I can see why. It's a blend of sci-fi, fantasy, and comedy, centered around a protagonist who's trying to be evil but hilariously failing at every turn.

(814 ratings)
Genre: adventure, fantasy, historical
What should you do when the person you like is no longer loyal? Find another one!
First Impressions
"Stone Age Husband Raising Journal" was quite the journey, and while it wasn't perfect, I found myself charmed by its unique blend of prehistoric setting and fluffy romance. It's definitely a novel that sticks with you, even after turning the final page. Initially, the transmigration tag gave me pause, but I quickly found myself drawn into the story. The premise is simple: a modern individual ends up in a prehistoric world filled with beastkin and dinosaurs (sort of). It’s a feel-good slice of life with a unique twist. I was immediately invested in how the protagonist would adapt and thrive....

Dominion’s End

The red meteor shower rained across the sky, a black fog engulfed the world. After waking from a night of torture and agony, Humans discovered they no longer dominated the world.
First Impressions
"Dominion's End" has been quite the ride so far! Jumping into a post-apocalyptic world with a gender-bending protagonist wasn't exactly on my radar, but I'm definitely hooked. The story blends action, adventure, comedy, and a touch of the supernatural in a way that keeps me constantly entertained. Initially, the premise seemed a bit chaotic – age regression, amnesia, an alternate world, and an apocalypse all rolled into one? It felt like a lot to take in. But the writing quickly won me over. I was immediately drawn to the main character's internal struggles and the dynamic between the siblings...

Apotheosis of a Demon – A Monster Evolution Story
4.5
(798 ratings)
Genre: action, adventure, drama
A back-to-basics(? ) monster evolution novel.
First Impressions
"Apotheosis of a Demon – A Monster Evolution Story" promised a unique take on the isekai genre, and after diving in, I can say it mostly delivers, though not without a few stumbles along the way. The story follows Shedy's journey from abused human to demon goddess, and it's a wild ride. I was immediately drawn in by the premise. A protagonist who isn't afraid to get her hands dirty and doesn't bother with "righteous" justifications? Sign me up! The initial chapters are compelling, and I found myself eager to see how Shedy would navigate this new, dangerous world....

The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich

(763 ratings)
Genre: action, adventure, comedy
This is the story of a crazy lich who possesses an internal game system and brings catastrophe to the entire world. “Let’s look at the daily quests today… it’s the damned choose one-of-two-options-type again.
First Impressions
"The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich" is definitely a wild ride! From the title alone, I knew I was in for something different, but I wasn't quite prepared for the mix of genres and tones. It throws you right into the life of Roland, a reincarnated lich with a system, in a world heavily inspired by Dungeons & Dragons and other fantasy media. The initial chapters set up a silly, almost parodic atmosphere, but there's a serious plot brewing beneath the surface. What really stands out is the world-building. It's deep, detailed, and doesn't offer easy solutions. Roland can't just brute-force hi...

Liu Yao: The Revitalization of Fuyao Sect

(551 ratings)
Genre: action, adult, adventure
A cultivation story about how a declining sect is restored by a narcissist, troublemaker, meanie, idiot, and wimpy kid.
First Impressions
"Liu Yao: The Revitalization of Fuyao Sect" is a web novel that I found to be quite captivating, although it had some minor issues that kept it from being a perfect read for me. It's a story that explores the meaning of family, love, and the pursuit of immortality, all wrapped up in a xianxia package. At first, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. The synopsis didn't quite prepare me for the depth and complexity of the story. I was quickly drawn into the lives of the five disciples of the Fuyao Sect, each with their own unique personalities and flaws. Their interactions felt genuine, like a ...

First Impressions
"Reborn As a System" caught my eye with its unique premise: the protagonist becomes the system, rather than being hosted by one. I dove in hoping for something fresh, and I definitely got it. This novel is a rollercoaster of action, adventure, and romance, with a healthy dose of xianxia thrown in for good measure. I was immediately drawn in by the fast-paced plot. There's never a dull moment as the MC and his ML traverse various worlds, each with its own distinct flavor. The initial setup is intriguing, and I found myself quickly invested in the leads' journey. I was a little wary of the "yand...
