MyriadBlades Previously reading 500 chaps of DMWG, I had confirmed a few things.
1) He is not completely OP he loses a battle even though he is supposed to be OP
2) The story is not very repetitive, but it is in a way.
3)THE ROMANCE! Where the hell is it? In 500 chaps (and some spoilers I have read for around 1k chaps) He never even kisses the two female leads. Are you F*cking kidding me?

I read like 500 chaps and story progresses a bit slow, VERY slow. For me, Emperor's Domination is around 1000% better than this. I prefer the face slapping, fast progression, OP protagonist and THE ROMANCE (Where things get somewhere, although I admit, not very far but better than DMWG) better than DMWG.

No offence if it is your favourite series, but I very much hate myself for reading five hundred chaps of platonic trash. If it had a good face slapping I might forgive it, but it doesn't! (If you compare it to Emperor's Domination). I am sorry if I offended anyone, but this is just my opinion, there is no need to take it, you could enjoy DMWG unlike me.

      What kind of OP Story are you searching for?
      Should the Protagonist have maximum martial expertise or magical power or technichal knowledge or strategy or luck? (For example of luck i am liking the original of http://thesylthorian.com/wn-100luck/ . The other stories are also pretty nice)
      Should the story be action or comedy or slice of life? I think drama can be exempted if there should be no "dead" Characters.
      What have you read and what was more remarkable? There can only be a relevant recommendation if there are some known preferences.

      You could look into other tags. For example:
      https://www.novelupdates.com/stag/hiding-true-abilities/
      https://www.novelupdates.com/stag/sudden-strength-gain/
      https://www.novelupdates.com/stag/lack-of-common-sense/
      https://www.novelupdates.com/stag/sharp-tongued-characters/

      Maybe even https://www.novelupdates.com/genre/slice-of-life/

      Not directly OP but a system novel that is currently getting translated. (Since i couldn't stop reading this story i pretty much read the whole story with MTL and it was still generally understandable.)

          Red_Tempest I remember reading Supreme Emperor System. I read it when it had around 20 chaps and I forgot to continue it. I remember it because it was the first novel to tell me 'beautiful dirty blonde hair'. I didn't even know those words existed.

              Hikaru Good suggestion, but I have read most of those with the tags: hiding true abilities and sudden strength gain. Lack of common sense is usually one that is with JP novels. They are too cringe and platonic for my taste. Slice of life is good, but that is it. There is nothing too good, or too bad about it. Sharp-tongued characters get absolutely nowhere with any OPness. Like the novel, Against the Gods. It usually goes:
              MC: "bla bla bla, roasted!"
              Villian: Bla bla bla, couldn't respond!"
              MC:"HAHAHAHA, suck my coc!"
              Villian:"Fuc this why am I arguing? I could have killed him 24 times if I attacked!"
              MC:" Reinforcement plot armour b!tch!"

              And that is how it goes. It goes nowhere. The villains will always be like: WTF? Why don't I just attack? Unless there is a usual modern world with just being a lawyer. But lawyers are only verbally good, not physically. The strength I am talking about is kind of like an all-rounder. LoHP is also OP but still gradual with strength gains, he can bearly be counted as an OP protagonist. I am talking about the strength that comes as OPness. The strength has to be constant through the series. He can't just use the power of Plot Armour. The power of strength and control!

                  It goes mostly against what you're looking for, but you could try mine if you're looking for something that is arguably new but definitely isn't used that much.

                  The main character is by no means OP, but he isn't exactly weak either.

                  The story, for now, doesn't have that much action in it since it's first starting out, and it's not really what I had in mind for this particular volume. For now, it's focusing more on character development, exploration, and world-building than anything else. It's still very much in its beginning phases. That being said, there are a handful of fighting scenes.

                  One thing the main character is, however, is very intelligent. I will say that much.

                  I invite you to check it out. The chapters are very short and to the point, so you won't be spending forever trying to get from one point to the next. If you decide it's not for you...so be it. But if it turns out you like it, it's a win-win for both of us.

                  I try to upload weekly chapters, so you know when to expect the next part.

                        its not about the weak to strong journey is bad, its about the writing and the author. Most writings go that way because authors dont put much thought on their fight scenes. But if u find a good novel who knows what hes doing with the fight scenes then it will be an enjoyable journey.

                        At the same time an OP protag would also be bad if handled to a mediocre author, OP protag are rare because they will become stale for a long period of chapters. Or the fight scenes are easily resolved thus the the arc will be resolved with on or two chaps.

                        I think u should rather focus more on finding a good author who knows their stuffs.
