There are occasional comedic elements, plenty of slow burn slice of life, and lots of other goodies.

Not tragedy. Won't leave you feeling sad or depressed. At least, it shouldn't!


I've also only had two people read all the chapters so for, so I am a bit desperate for readers. :sweat_smile:

I tend to play with both but not focus on either comedy (it's too hard to maintain - and often works best to "season" drama or horror IME) or Slice of Life (like to show the characters' lives, but then have ... stuff ... get in the way).
Strange Awakening has about five chapters of "slice of life" before it gets REALLY weird. The comedy is pretty much what I grew up on - Spider-Man and Blue Devil comics, and early (before 2000) depictions of Nightcrawler, The Beast and (usually as their straight man) Wolverine, and the pre-social-awareness Hal Jordan Green Lantern (not the best stories - those WERE the Social Awareness Green Lantern/Green Arrow books; possibly the best books out before the 90s - but Hal was actually likeable and had a sense of humor that did not show up again until he died and took over the role of The Spectre in the late 90s).
Between Worlds tends to spend two or three Slice of Life chapters between "story chapters" (and the characters banter a lot but never really go for full comedy)

I recently rewatched "Life With an Ordinary Guy Who Reincarnated into a Total Fantasy Knockout" for like... the fifth time, so I highly recommend that one. Spoilers:
no truck-kun here - the goddess of love finds her intended Champion still alive and fucking mercs him and it is glorious from then on

Monthly Girl's Nozaki-kun is very fun and fluffy. High school romcom; FMC is in love with a boy who mistakes her confession as wanting an autograph because he's a famous shoujo mangaka, and she gets pulled into helping him with with his work along with other colorful characters.

The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World. yes, a power/sentai ranger gets isekai'ed and maintains all his campy powers and abilities in a magic world with a rules magic system that doesn't understand him. so even when the plot takes an ocassional sadder turn, it remains in the realm of what you would see on a power ranger show.

Kemono Michi: Rise Up - a himbo masked wrestler is summoned to s fantasy world to act as its champion, but
suplexes the princess
before running away to open a monster pet shop instead

Alien Stage wrecked me a month or two ago. I still have trauma from that—I physically can't listen to the music or see the art, or I turn into a wreck.

Then today, my fav comedy novel hits me with a twist and cliffhanger. Suddenly the MC gets a free existensial crisis, the whole world is unraveled, and it turns out his effort in the entire novel was meaningless. And the author says they are going on break for a month.

I am desperate. I was already searching for as many comedy novels/slice of slice as I could, but now things are even worse. Dunno why authors are just addicted to sudden twist tragedies now. And it's alwayssss the well written novels. I stop reading CUZ I HATE TWIST TRAGEDIES.

You can self rec, do whatever. Just make me happy. No darkness. Just fluffiness. Silliness. Rom coms.

Ty. Will leave five star if the novel saves me from depression.
My story has its fair share of comedy! The MC herself has this wit to her tone. Give it a read if you’re interested. I update on a weekly basis :)

Mine has comedy, and I don't think I'm planning something too tragic. It's also very slow, that it's mostly slice of life, but with occasional action since it's fantasy.

On scribblehub, I quite like Lazing about in a dating sim.

Outside of scribblehub, I like The daily Life of the immortal king, which is like saiki K but chinese cultivation. It's also getting another season soon, which is nice.

I will warn you, the novel form of TDLotIK is quite long and unrefined.

We also have My instant death ability is so overpowered...

And yuusha party ni kawaii. WHICH I'VE JUST LEARNED ON WRITING THIS COMMENT IS GETTING AN ANIME ADAPTION, FINALLY! I'm surprised it's taken this long for it to get that.

If you're fine with non-novels, then maybe Kono Healer. And engaged to the unidentified. I also second monthly girl's nozaki kun.

Imagine a heavenly office rom-com: she’s sent to betray her boss… then accidentally falls for him.
My novel is secrets and slow-burn tension done right. It also has fluffy scenes.

Please Don't Tease me Takagi-san is so wholesome!
Other shows like The Duke of Death and his Black Maid is also wholesome with a spice of darkness for flavor.

My story has some dark but does default to slice of life and comedy a lot of the times but I do keep a balance of light and dark as the title suggests.

I'll leave in case it could be even slightly intriguing for the premise at least

I would seriously recommend mine, "No Need For A Core?".

While it is most certainly not pure sweetness and comfort, it solidly leans toward cozy and slice of life with things like three chapters devoted to a girl's fifteenth birthday, which was her first birthday with her new adoptive family. There will be an HEA for the MCs, and other HEAs for other romances in the story, lots of found family stuff, and just some good old comforting, life-building vibes.

With the occasional side dish of ass-kicking. Which can be rough. Current arc does have some readers looking forward to the cozy times afterward.

I'm kind of surprised by the amount of shameless self-promotion going on here. Anyways, I'm sorry I can't recommend fluffy stories, I only read smut on this site.
