BrianG9677 Try Power couple novels. Here is a good example. https://www.webnovel.com/book/16087359006969905/Ryan-Morgan%3A-Love-Contract

DarkRay oof. Did I really put Deadman Wonderland instead of Doomsday Wonderland.

CCmei Still is, on the website at least. They might've changed it on the app, but not on the website. Therefore I categorised my new novel under male fantasy, because it's not romance.

I AM NEW HERE, ANYONE CARE TO GIVE ME A TOUR?

BrianG9677 They aren’t. Webnovel just insists on categorizing them that way.

I think it actually has to do with what is most read on Webnovel. Webnovel really seems to be focused on Light Novels, the Asian type. Now, do not get me wrong. There are a lot of kickass Japanese novels that describe the lives of heroines without any reference whatsoever to romantic relationships. However, when I think about Chinese YY novels, I really cannot think of one that was purely about the female character's life without any reference to romance. And Webnovel does have a very strong Chinese feel (I don't know where Webnovel's headquarters may be, but I would go with Indonesia, maybe).

All their premium novels marketed towards women follow the Chinese tropes of what makes a good girls' YY novel. What female readers of Webnovel want to read in great numbers seems to be romance. Often, with an easy plot (I am not looking down on anything; I love myself an easy plot more often than not). So of course, that is what Webnovel will try to market itself as: a source of heart-warming, fun, easy romance stories to read real quick without breaking your brain.

It all comes to choosing your platform. Each webnovel platform has its own specialty in a way. Asian-inspired novels are your cup of tea? You would come to Webnovel. You are looking for LGBTQ+/BL/GL (GL in a much smaller proportion)? You go to Tapas. And Wattpad … I don't know what Wattpad's specialty is, but they must have one.

Piokilek Dude...the guy was complaining about there not being any female lead novels that isn't about romance, and you linked him/her to a romance novel (written by yourself, no less). Really?

LostInFictions i enjoy reincarnated reborn storys where mc is in another world
Novels where they have a system, use alchemy or weapon creation

Every single time i read a novel with these characteristics with a female mc it develops into 2 ways 1 the female mc chasing after male mc and 2 the female mc hates male mc who chases her then she becomes stupid and pursues him or accepts him but makes stupid decisions

When i read male mc novels its always male mc has harem makes dumb decisions but it still more often than not doesnt ruin the story

DarkRay Haha!! You're recommending your own novel, nice Master Ray!! I salute you, your teaching was quite valuable Master Ray!!

Oh, oh! Why don't you check out "Love at First Bite"? Though the title is misleading and the book is still taking its baby steps, the romance is only going to have a mild introduction in the later part of the story. It mainly centers around Drama, Comedy, Action and Mystery.
