Mushoku Tensei ~Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu~
[ Isekai | Heavy | Tragedy | Gore | OP-MC ] This OP MC has a slight personality problem IMHO. Isekai with a heavy story. The story and plot are great with a big focus on character development. Its the first Tragedy I followed. I had to power through in the beginning for the MC and plot to grow on me but and am glad I did.
Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari
[ Isekai | Emotional | Tragic ] A summoned hero who has nothing to fight with but a shield. Rejected both by his summoners and fellow heroes alike.

Terrarium in Drawer
[ Comedy | Fantasy ] Translated back in bato.to days. No real way to describe this. Perhaps we can call it interconnected one-shots. Significantly different from anything else I have read. Highly recommended
Ore to Kawazu-san no Isekai Hourouki
[ Isekai | Comedy | OP-MC ] Comedy about an absurdly OP MC who has been kidnapped by a frog. Family friendly, I let the kids practice reading with this.
It's My House
[ Fluff | Slice-of-Life | Comedy ] A soothing story about a retired knight and hishousedaughter. Similar to If It’s for My Daughter, but less drama, and more home comedy.
[h2]
Dogeza De Tanondemita
[ Ecchi | Comedy | OP-MC ] Did you know girls will strip if you ask them polity in Dogeza pose? If not, this series is for you! Top of the class MC who realizes that the process is just as important as the result. The focus is on the emotions of the girls being targeted. Recommended for all men of culture. Please do not downvote/drop solely due to the one troll chapter which occurs early on. The author merely was trying to have as much fun teasing us as he does with his lovely girls.

[h2]About Me
I write backend programs and database crap.
My skills and knowledge are above average. But my motivation and dedication are below.
I am not a social person, even online. Perhaps I am too concerned about how others view me. Despite directly influencing it, I have no control or knowledge on what you think of me after all. Scary thought, I am glad I don't know you IRL.
I tend to post and then edit in/out details I want as I complete my thought. It takes a long time for me to compile my thoughts into a post after all, so I want to ensure I don't loose it all before posting (phone die, browser crash, power outage, accidentally hit back button, etc). Due to this habit, I often get myself in unexpected edit wars against replyers. It's quite fun, but a bit embarrassing since my half-formed thoughts often include inaccurate information or provocative(not sexually! ...usually) wording. However, If I tried to wait until I get everything perfect, I simply would never post anything. As such, I force myself to post and live on with the mental turmoil.
Interested in my MDlist? Here are some rough rules that I use for rating.[ul][*]For all ratings above 8, It must be good enough that I still remember the story!
[*]For a rating of 10, I must like it enough to re-read it from start to finish, several times over.
[*]The lower the rating, the more I believe it was a waste of my time. I rate in reference to other series with a roughly similar theme and genre. Rating is not based solely on weather or not I enjoy it. I enjoy some trash manga that I would never recommend to anyone. My rating is basically on how competent I believe the mangaka is.[/ul]
I go back over and re-rate manga a few times a year. Ones that stick in my head as great series after a several month hiatus are the ones that keep a rating of 10.

Up and Coming
Not much content yet, but seems promising. I sincerely hope these ones continue on using their current ploy. But always fear the mangaka will run out of content or betray our expectations with the next chapter.

Because You Asked For Lewds
Decent series which focus on ecchi situations. Take the rating with a grain of salt as these type of manga are ruthlessly downvoted. Note, this list only contains series where ecchi/lewdness is part of its core, not ones where it is a side gag to a main story
Dogeza De Tanondemita
[ Ecchi | Comedy | OP-MC ] Did you know girls will strip if you ask them polity in Dogeza pose? If not, this series is for you! Top of the class MC who realizes that the process is just as important as the result. The focus is on the emotions of the girls being targeted. Recommended for all men of culture.

Handyman Saitou In Another World
Focuses on the eccentric nature of the world and its occupants more so than the isekai-ed MC. Dying out. First 5 chapters highly recommended!
