Looking for light hearted fantasy manga with:
- preferably the manga focuses on fun interactions within party members/ family/ friends
- light/hinted romance is a plus
- good worldbuilding/interesting fantasy world setting
- preferably MC is not the glory seeking type or ambitious
- no fanservice, gore or heavy themes

I enjoyed manga as mentioned below and would love to read similar mangas as:
- dungeon meshi
- sousou no frieren
- ascendance of a bookworm
- boukensha license

Would love it if I could receive recommendations! Thanks in advance :)

no romance, but lots of fun interactions and world building

https://mangadex.org/title/35871/a-rank-boukensha-no-slow-life Mostly focused on a retired hero getting a love life (mutual pining, kinda)
https://mangadex.org/title/33225/akachan-ryuu-no-osewagakari-ni-ninmei-saremashita kinda cute, short read, easy plot
https://mangadex.org/title/21325/botsuraku-yotei-nanode-kajishokunin-wo-mezasu readable, Little to no fanservice
https://mangadex.org/title/33136/cheat-kusushi-no-slow-life-isekai-ni-tsukurou-drugstore cute slice of life, pharmaceutical focused, kinda harem but still very little fanservice, also going kinda nowhere with world building rn
https://mangadex.org/title/42775/crimson-Karma not light-hearted, but I rly have to recommend this, world building is decent, female mc, setting is in the middle of the wa, fanservice to the female audience mostly
https://mangadex.org/title/36246/dad-is-a-hero-mom-is-a-spirit-i-m-a-reincarnator kinda cute too, not thaaaat serious as of yet, pretty decent world building, little romance and action
https://mangadex.org/title/36728/freeter-ga-jimini-isekai-teni-suru-manga this is just lmao, short read but funny
https://mangadex.org/title/36694/heart-warming-meals-with-mother-fenrir fluff and floof
https://mangadex.org/title/37255/i-want-to-be-a-receptionist-of-the-magic-world female mc, romance but dense mc (not in the obtuse way), teeny bit of crack
I'll be back when you're done with these

@aqs Thanks! I wanted to contribute, too, but didn't have enough time to do so earlier so here goes:
https://mangadex.org/title/17709/kumo-desu-ga-nani-ka (MC's reborn as a small spider and thrown immediately into danger)
https://mangadex.org/title/17710/helck (I'm not sure if the MC's main internal conflict counts as a heavy theme, but it never really sullies the lightheartedness of the manga, imo)
https://mangadex.org/title/37041/milady-just-wants-to-relax (MC starts a cafe after being banished; I can't say much bout worldbuilding atm but it's hinted here and there)
https://mangadex.org/title/32453/love-advice-from-the-great-duke-of-hell (MC summoned a duke of hell to get, well, love advice; it's a manhwa so i might be cheating)
https://mangadex.org/title/33654/kyuujitsu-no-warumono-san (about how a general of a villainous organization spends his days off on earth)
https://mangadex.org/title/20716/kumika-no-mikaku (MC is an alien who's just realizing the joys of eating)
https://mangadex.org/title/21832/exterminator (MC is an OP janitor)
https://mangadex.org/title/41092/boyfriend-of-the-dead (another manhwa, and I guess this is more scifi-ish; MC is a chef-turned-zombie and regains his humanity cause he doesn't like food raw)
https://mangadex.org/title/54886/when-the-villainess-loves (the worldbuilding isn't there yet, but the interactions are lighthearted and enjoyable)


@sbzkag just testing if i could tag myself. it just struck me that this might work

This one is really good. I like the vibe on the manga just read the 5 first chapters and I'm sure you will get hooked
