2. 2 雾 An Epic of Fog, Blood, and False Heroes 雾与血与虚伪的英雄史诗 liuxkWestern Fantasy2.4M WordsCompleted A slow-burning, realistic otherworldly tale with a convincing romance, a grand scope, and plenty of groundwork. For those tired of mainstream fast food fiction and looking for something different! == Once, I admired the heroes of epic tales. Not the proper heroes surrounded by companions, but the lone heroes who walked their own path. They strode through the darkness, saving everyone by their own strength, asking for neither reward nor praise. But now I understand that this isn' 0Tickets3.1MClicks16.2kFavorites

   Completed At first, I thought it was a harem story, then I thought it was a power struggle, but in the end, I found it was a battle royale for the female protagonist. To summarize the plot of this book, it's about a god who pulls tens of thousands of Earthlings to another world to fight against a type of invader called "Mist Demons" from multiple other worlds. The entire process is broadcast live to those left on Earth, and there's even a leaderboard based on the battle results. After eliminating all the "Mist Demons," they return to Earth, and the story unfolds as an epic adventure. The overall tone is oppressive and melancholic, featuring elements of a dead woman and NTR (Netorare, a form of infidelity), requiring a high level of emotional resilience. Aside from these aspects, the book boasts a tight plot, well-developed fight scenes and characters, and I enjoyed reading it smoothly from beginning to end. The ending truly felt like a glimmer of hope after a long period of uncertainty. If you're looking for a romance/harem story, this book isn't for you; however, if you crave an epic adventure, this is a great choice.

   Currently being serialized, 3.34 Million words, ready to be read. This is a yandere harem novel, and I've only just reached the paid chapters. Based on what I've read, the book portrays each yandere character quite well. While the male lead is weak in the beginning, the author says he'll grow stronger later on, and he's not a weak protagonist, which is very important. I haven't finished watching it yet, so I don't know how it goes later on, but based on what I've seen so far, it's worth watching.

   Completed A rare gaming novel, and it seems to be doing quite well? Later it shifts to a game-world setting. Countless harem elements (and some erotic content), but the author struggled to write more towards the end, causing the main plot to be repeatedly delayed. The filler parts were replaced with slice-of-life scenes (and more erotic content). There are so many harem members that almost every named female character is part of the harem, while male characters are relatively few. In short, harem and erotic content lovers shouldn't miss it.

5. 5 无 By Chance, They Want to Spend Every Day with Me 无心插柳，她们却想与我朝夕相伴 Purple Signal紫信号Campus1.8M WordsOngoing A boy who loved nothing met a dazzling array of flowers. In the daily rhythm of school life, someone falls in love with someone else, someone wins another's heart, and the drama of youth and romance plays out every day. Yet amid the season of falling blossoms, there is a boy who ruins the mood. Born lonely, he can't bring himself to care about anything. And yet he is the sun to all those flowers, making them grow wildly. Of those colorful blossoms, which one will finally stir the boy's heart? 3Tickets898.8kClicks5.1kFavorites

   Currently being serialized, it's reached 1.14 Million words and is ready to be devoured. This is a first-person harem novel. The male protagonist seems to lack emotions. The author states there are 12 female characters in the harem, though some will appear later in the university arc. Each heroine is well-developed and unique. The novel is episodic and contains a lot of explicit content (available for viewing in a group). A controversial aspect is the inclusion of two lesbian sisters and a cross-dresser with gender dysphoria, requiring a certain level of caution. If you can handle these elements, it's a fairly good harem novel and worth reading.

6. 6 乖 Get Back Here and Work Overtime, Apostle 乖乖回来加班啊使徒大人 liuxkWestern Fantasy1.7M WordsCompleted One year ago: “What is an Apostle?” “Humanity’s strongest fighting force!” “What’s in it for me?” “Countless lawful wives and endless wealth and luxury!” “What are the working hours like?” “Nine to five, weekends off, meals and housing provided!” “...Fine, I’ll give it a try.” Six months later: “...Why do I have to work twenty hours a day?” “You’re contributing to humanity!” “Not even one day off a week?” “Young people should strive hard!” “I was promised a whole group of wives, but I don’t have 0Tickets7.5MClicks35kFavorites

   Completed It's a harem story, but not entirely so; the author provides multiple endings, one of which is a harem ending. The plot itself has a strong anti-imperialist, anti-feudal, and anti-capitalist flavor (all three appear as representatives of the villains), and the final ending reflects the people being the masters of their own destiny. It just gets more and more patriotic the more you watch! (●°U°●)​" The author, xk, appears to be an employee of a major internet company, and it's been determined that the author was working overtime. Of course, as a reader, you don't need to worry about the author's thoughts and feelings in this book. To sum it up, this book is about: Men should fight! If you like watching fights, you can read it.

   Completed It starts as a school harem story, but later it turns into a fantasy (although the appearance of a demon at the beginning meant it wouldn't be a pure slice-of-life story). XK is a veteran author, and while her works are generally quite depressing, the beginning of this book is surprisingly funny due to the male protagonist's incredible actions. The plot accelerates as it shifts to fantasy, perhaps because the author couldn't write a campus romance anymore. Whether it's the male protagonist's efforts to complete the devilish girl's scheme at the beginning or the later family drama, it all boils down to two words: incredible. If you're looking for a harem novel that's different from the mainstream, this book is worth checking out.

   Curator note

   Completed This is a yandere harem novel. The male protagonist is not the weak character often seen in yandere novels; on the contrary, he is somewhat domineering. It is rare to see a male protagonist like this in yandere novels, perhaps because the yandere in this book is less aggressive. The author is also a veteran author, and the plot and writing are both above average, making it worth reading.

9. 9 黑 The Corrupted Girls and My Shattered Daily Life 黑化的少女们与我支离破碎的日常 That Flourishing Splendor那盛开的繁华Campus1.7M WordsOngoing Ling Fan plans to spend this life using his sharp mind to quietly be a harmless, easygoing nobody. But can it really be that simple? This novel was originally titled The Shattered Life Under the Control of a Yandere. A slow-burn yandere story with multiple routes. Tags: harem, System, reborn. 0Tickets40.8MClicks113.1kFavorites

   Curator note

   The story has been abandoned and is now 1.62 Million words long. This is a harem/yandere (obsessive and possessive) novel. The plot and character development are quite good. It was the first yandere novel I read on Pineapple Bun, and also the first yandere novel I ever read in my life. The male lead is always on the verge of being locked in a dark room, narrowly escaping death, while the female leads all hide their yandere natures from him. The author's ability to balance the roles of so many female characters and ensure that none of them die is quite remarkable. If this book hadn't been abandoned, it would have been a masterpiece, but unfortunately, it was. I don't recommend reading it. As my introduction to yandere novels, I'll still add it to my reading list as a memento. RIP 🙏

    Curator note

    Completed A harem novel with a "chasing husband to the crematorium" plot, this is a rare and incredibly popular male protagonist novel. The "chasing husband to the crematorium" theme is notoriously difficult to handle, and this book does it fairly well. However, the later parts lose the "chasing husband to the crematorium" feel of the beginning, which makes me a little less interested (twisted fans want to read "regret for life" (≧∇≦)/). Nevertheless, the plot and writing are both decent and worth reading.

    Curator note

    Completed It's a harem novel, but with a single female lead. The female lead splits into seven different female leads with different personalities, allowing you to experience both pure love and a harem at the same time. The male lead's mastery of the rules of getting along with the seven different female leads is so skillful it's almost heartbreaking. This is the author's first time writing a book, so the writing style may be a bit lacking, but it will give you a different reading experience from the mainstream and is worth reading.

    Completed The Demon Emperor is of course a female emperor, and it's a pure love story with one-on-one romance. It features farming elements, develops cultivation technology in a cultivation world, and has a pretty good ending 😊, a masterpiece with a good beginning and a good ending.
