Danmei Officially Published in English
All the volumes licensed in English that I could find on here. I've added ones I couldn't find whenever possible, and did my best to select the correct editions.
Danmei Starter
This list contains the first volume of several popular series from danmei subgenres such as: wuxia, xianxia, cultivation, omegaverse, infinite flow, e-sports, etc.
This list is just a point to start from if you want to dip your toes into Danmei 🥰
I’m an international fan, so this list prioritizes works that have been published in English and that are popular in international spaces. I’ve not read all these, but I’m certainly gonna try!!
I’m always open to feedback <33

Historical-inspired Danmei Novels
These are danmei novels that take place in Ancient China-inspired settings and have little to no fantasy elements. While some may contain references to cultivation, I have not included xianxia nor transmigration novels. Note: Thousand Autumns is a wuxia novel set in a historical setting.
Red String of Fate
Boundless devotion and yearninf. A curated list of Danmei with different worlds spanning everything from cultivation, modern school romance, etc. Officially Licensed first volumes ONLY💕
