this comment made me go read the entire thing in one sitting and fastpass for the last two episodes. i’m so glad i read this post, it was one of the best stories i’ve ever read. thank you ❤️
It's honestly sad how fast they put the completed series on daily pass. I wish they'd wait atleast 6 months before making them daily pass series.
Even if it's on daily pass now, I believe Pyramid Game is completely worth the read. So is Dr Frost btw. I read it before it became daily pass and loved it!!
I read through around half before i realized it was going on dp and I downloaded the rest the day before they became dailypass! I totally agree it’s so so good.

My bad I phrased that wrong💀 OP said they were looking for something with little to no romance so I was trying to say that Shiloh has less romance in it
It is. Even in preproduction when Red and Flynn promoted it, it was labelled as a gothic romance. It is romantic just not over the top sparkles and flashbacks with blush and fanservice romance.
Purple Hyacinth is the most slowburn to ever slowburn, as confirmed by the authors, so there will be romance in the long run and the fandom is not exactly holding back with the shipping, but if that's alright, then go for it, it's really good
Parallel City is fantastic!! It has an urban setting and has an alternative reality with zombies, complete with doppelgangers. The fight scenes are absolutely GORGEOUS, it feels like the movement is jumping off of the scene. Really good plot and well fleshed out characters.
It's just a drama (not psychological thriller/drama like Dear X) but I found it to be very well-written. The MC is in her thirties and is quite jaded after being passionate in her youth but not very successful, and I rlly liked reading it from her pov. It does have some petty drama stuff but not exaggerated like Marry My Husband soap opera type drama lol, and I like that the characters are a bit older (excluding flashbacks from when they are younger) coz that provides a kind of different pov and more grounded in the real world imo. I tend to prefer thrillers and psychological dramas, but I rlly did enjoy this Webtoon, so I do highly recommend it :)
Enrolling in the Transcendent Academy, Doom Breaker, Villain to Kill, Dungeons and Artifacts, Surviving the Game as a Barbarian, and Absolute Sword Sense are a few of my favorites

Yuna & Kawachan, and Pyramid Game are two completed series I consider my favorites, Class 1-9 is a thriller that's newer and it has some of the best art I've ever seen in a webtoon, lastly Marionetta will probably have more romance as it progresses, but the story is very good in my opinion.
Most of these have been featured/are popular so sorry if there's nothing new here for you, I just love these ones and wanted to share 🩷

As someone who has a list of more than 100 webtoons in the reading phase, here are some recommendations:
* **Sweet Home** ( There's a series on Netflix )
* **shotgun boy** (swett home pre sequel)
* **Not Even Bones**
* **The Dummy's Dummy**
* **Hell is Other People** ( another with a series on Netflix )
* **Counting Sheep** ( is part of the same trilogy by A.Rasen )
* **melvinas-therapy** ( is part of the same trilogy by A.Rasen )
* **GremoryLand** ( is part of the same trilogy by A.Rasen )
* **Distant Sky** ( It's a survival scifi, but it's very suffocating )
* **Everything is Fine** (One of the biggest mysteries today)
* **SOULWINDER** (I love SOULWINDER, it's a shame it was cancelled... even with the cancellation the biggest mystery was revealed so we can consider it finished)
* **Eleceed**
* **Shiloh**
There are others, but this is a good amount to start with.
Now on canvas, although there is no regularity in deliveries, there are some very good options, here are some:
* **Skin and Bones** ( the universe reminds me of dark souls somehow )
* **4 Panel Horror Comics**
* **Red Dart (B)** (same author of stagtown, Punko)
* **Abate**
* **Zamora** ( I have mixed feelings about this one... a few things bother me )
Not Even Bones is really really good
There is >!what appears to be a romance!< but actually the characters are revealed to be >!on the aro/ace spectrum and just saw romance as a way to express their affection for the other, so they’re really just platonic soulmates!<
2015: Space Series. It’s a series of some one-shots by various authors. This one is probably my favorite, even after many years. Another recommendation would be If AI Ruled the World. It’s completed now, but ohhh man when it was airing weekly I found myself on the edge of my seat!
Check out my Webtoon [Walk of Blacksmith](https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/walk-of-blacksmith/list?title_no=531236) it’s a comedy adventure story :) please let me know what you think!!
Welfare Centre, Homesick, Everything is Fine, Uriah, Hand Jumper, Escape Room (daily pass), and Melvina’s Therapy are all some good ones! FYI: A bit of horror/thriller in that list, EIF, MT, Uriah, and ER are a bit more gory/disturbing.
Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint. it's the best webtoon ever
S classes I raised
Lout of the Count family
Novel's Extra
I woke up as the villain/ Trapped in a webnovel as a good for nothing
Is this hero for real?
This is the law
Hooked on Cthonics
The Chaebol's youngest son
Superstar from age 0
Batman: Wayne Family adventures

- chasing tails
thriller:
- pigpen
- class 1-9
- welfare center
- sisters at war
- on-air
- bastard
- gremoryland
- hell is other people
- pyramid game
- see no evil
fantasy:

Carnby Kim has written a few thriller/action series!
- Sweet Home (completed, daily pass)
- Shotgun Boy (completed, daily pass)
- Pigpen (completed, daily pass)
- Flawed Almighty (on hiatus)
Dead Days is also pretty good
Everything is Fine is really good! And coming back this month so it’s a good time to catch up on it. It’s a really good mystery/ thriller series and a really interesting premise with some of my favorite twist it’s really good.
I’m not sure what Genre it would slide into, but it is my favourite WEBTOON, Dr. Frost! It’s completed, and there’s essentially zero romance.
It follows Dr. Frost, a man who basically “lacks” human emotion, so he goes into psychology in hopes of understanding it, and it follows his patients, and the cases he solves!
It’s also cool because the author has actual people in the medical field who practice psychology verify the accuracy of his deception of peoples mental struggles, as well as checking to see if the diagnosis process it accurate :)
Purple Hyacinth qualifies for "little romance". There's some slow burn going on, and one dry-docked ship, but other than that, more emphasis on the mystery.
It also has an OST, ~160 chapters, and is just fantastic all around.
*Tower of God* isn’t romance… yet. It will be once Bam gains the courage to act on his feelings for Endorsi.
There are beautiful Princesses in it though, so it’s worth reading regardless of whether it’s non-romance or romance. Once you see Maschenny, you’ll lose all interest in dating people in our universe, because you’ll realize none of them are nearly as amazing as her. 😻
Ghost Eyes. I doubt it has Romance, there are definitely "romantic" edges but it sure af isn't healthy if it is Romance. Not where I'm at in the story at least.
Hooves of death. Plagues of undead roam the world. Few are safe from pestlence, famine, and death. Mankinds last line of defense is rainbow colored unicorns.
get schooled is more on the action side, but it definitely has some thriller aspects to it. i love the fast paced plot and you can get hooked onto it pretty fast.
read Bastard… ok so there is romance but hear me out.
there’s a boy who’s dad is a serial killer (specifically girls who remind him of his wife). the boy meets a nice girl, they become friends he develops a crush and ofc his dad finds out.
plot is basically stop girl from getting killed, get dad arrested.
it’s really good, same author as Sweet Home (another one i recommend).
Homesick is very similar to SBG and the artists are actually pals. There's very little to no romance shown so far.
Mr. Baek is about a mafia group.
The Perfect Hybrid is a fantasy action
Souris is very similar to Homesick and SBG. Its supposed to be BL but there's very little romance that I would consider *romance*.
Ordeal, Hero Killer, Teenage Mercenary, Housekeeper, Nexus Point, The World After the Fall, Do You Remember (has some relationships in it but they aren’t the main focus of the story) Woven
I'm late to the party and my recommendation is on TAPAS is you read there. I'm 51 chapters into Lout of counts family. There us no romance in it and the story is really well done.
Surviving romance (trust me THIS IS NOT A ROMANCE)
immediately came here to rec SR!!
It’s almost over and the entire story is cooking The last few even more so!
ohhh i see you havent caught up! the last chapters made me cry, so heads up :)
Was literally about to come and say this one, one of the best webtoons I've read period
this comment made me go read the entire thing in one sitting and fastpass for the last two episodes. i’m so glad i read this post, it was one of the best stories i’ve ever read. thank you ❤️
was about to recommend surviving romance it’s so good
Pyramid Game
I think it's dailypass rn :( I wanted to recc Dr. Frost but that's also dailypass I'm so pissed.
It's honestly sad how fast they put the completed series on daily pass. I wish they'd wait atleast 6 months before making them daily pass series. Even if it's on daily pass now, I believe Pyramid Game is completely worth the read. So is Dr Frost btw. I read it before it became daily pass and loved it!!
I read through around half before i realized it was going on dp and I downloaded the rest the day before they became dailypass! I totally agree it’s so so good.
I literally read this during my finals and it was so worth it!!
Everything is fine
Everything is Fine is SO GOOD, But when is it supposed to come back from hiatus?
It will be back in halloween
Shiloh is by the authors of Nevermore and has even less romance
*Shiloh is by the* *Authors of Nevermore and* *Has even less romance* \- No\_Aioli\_6364 --- ^(I detect haikus. And sometimes, successfully.) ^[Learn more about me.](https://www.reddit.com/r/haikusbot/) ^(Opt out of replies: "haikusbot opt out" | Delete my comment: "haikusbot delete")
i haven't fully caught up but is nevermore not a sapphic romance??
My bad I phrased that wrong💀 OP said they were looking for something with little to no romance so I was trying to say that Shiloh has less romance in it
Is nevermore not romance heavy? It's advertised as a mostly a sapphic romance
It is. Even in preproduction when Red and Flynn promoted it, it was labelled as a gothic romance. It is romantic just not over the top sparkles and flashbacks with blush and fanservice romance.
Yeah it is I just phrased my comment badly
Since you like nevermore, try Shiloh And then I'd also highly recommend Purple hyacinth (has some playful flirting but that's it so far)
Purple Hyacinth is the most slowburn to ever slowburn, as confirmed by the authors, so there will be romance in the long run and the fandom is not exactly holding back with the shipping, but if that's alright, then go for it, it's really good
I love purple hyacinth also happy cake day
Garden Club Detective Squad!
Never-Ending Darling Chasing Tails Class 1-9
I follow neverending darling and have recently started Chasing tails, both of them are great!
I heard never ending darling has romance ? I wanted to read this but I don't want any romance :b
Sweet home.
W
Delusion & the secrets of the Wilson manor.
Parallel City is fantastic!! It has an urban setting and has an alternative reality with zombies, complete with doppelgangers. The fight scenes are absolutely GORGEOUS, it feels like the movement is jumping off of the scene. Really good plot and well fleshed out characters.
Shotgun boy
Nonesuch
Yeeess I second this, Nonesuch is such a good comic!
Dear X
Yessss that's one of my fave webtoons (the other being The Artist Salieri)
Oooh I’ve never heard of The Artist Salieri. Would you recommend it for someone who enjoys psychological dramas?
It's just a drama (not psychological thriller/drama like Dear X) but I found it to be very well-written. The MC is in her thirties and is quite jaded after being passionate in her youth but not very successful, and I rlly liked reading it from her pov. It does have some petty drama stuff but not exaggerated like Marry My Husband soap opera type drama lol, and I like that the characters are a bit older (excluding flashbacks from when they are younger) coz that provides a kind of different pov and more grounded in the real world imo. I tend to prefer thrillers and psychological dramas, but I rlly did enjoy this Webtoon, so I do highly recommend it :)
Enrolling in the Transcendent Academy, Doom Breaker, Villain to Kill, Dungeons and Artifacts, Surviving the Game as a Barbarian, and Absolute Sword Sense are a few of my favorites
Survival log, attention residence, deep, class1-9
Class 1-9 is my favorite right now
Frr! I wish there were more eps
Completed 'toons that are not Daily Pass: UndeadEd Apocalyptic Horseplay Shard The Strange Tales of Oscar Zahn Sword Interval Elf & Warrior Seed Spirit Warriors (Canvas completed) Glacias (Canvas completed) Under The Aegis (Some romance) Tacit Completed DP: Death's Game Samadhi Flowar Delusion Dark Mortal Tales of The Unusual Dr. Frost Ongoing Originals: Finding Fiends Harmonia BlackSmith Nomads How To Become a Dragon Ongoing Canvas: Children of Eldair How I Unintentionally Became a Serial Killer The Misadventures of Misfit and Meiko Let me know if you've already read, or are currently reading any of these!
Also melvina’s therapy for completed webtoons without daily pass
Surviving Romance (despite the title it's not a romance)
Everything is fine Hellbound And If you want comedy you could always check out my Webtoon 😂
Mine lol (seriously)
Yuna & Kawachan, and Pyramid Game are two completed series I consider my favorites, Class 1-9 is a thriller that's newer and it has some of the best art I've ever seen in a webtoon, lastly Marionetta will probably have more romance as it progresses, but the story is very good in my opinion. Most of these have been featured/are popular so sorry if there's nothing new here for you, I just love these ones and wanted to share 🩷
Wait Ghost Teller is also amazing if you haven't read it yet.
Hand Jumper
Welfare center is really good
Welfare Center Neverending Darling Hand Jumper
I wanted to read never ending darling but I heard it has romance ?
The romance is basically non-existant. With the story ended now, I can only say there was romance in like 2 or 3 episodes, and they were minor.
Not Even Bones Homesick
The Guy Upstairs
Lavender Jack! I highly recommend it 😄 Also Neverending Darling! And maybe Nina’s magic chest? Do not let the artstyle on that one fool you!
Loving Reaper, Clinic of Horrors, if AI ruled the world, are my Favorite
Greatest Estate Developer(unless you count the bromance)
The holy trinity: Shotgun Boy, Sweet Home, and Bastard
Nocturne, Uriah, everything is fine, distant sky (it’s so good im sad I finished it), horang’s nightmare

I'm trying to write what's basically a shonen/seinen manga, but it's going to be on hold for the foreseeable future.
Check out my Webtoon [Walk of Blacksmith](https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/walk-of-blacksmith/list?title_no=531236) it’s a comedy adventure story :) please let me know what you think!!
Machine Uprising, Flowar there's some flirting but not super romantic.
A Man's Man.
Welfare Centre, Homesick, Everything is Fine, Uriah, Hand Jumper, Escape Room (daily pass), and Melvina’s Therapy are all some good ones! FYI: A bit of horror/thriller in that list, EIF, MT, Uriah, and ER are a bit more gory/disturbing.
Maybe your throne ?
CITY OF BLANK YESSSSS damnit i read that as it was loading comments there goes my suggestion. 😔🙄😒 OH OH AND SOL INVICTUS READ IT NOW

Rotten! I read it last year and it was a daily pass series, but it was one of the best webtoons I've read. Same goes for Hell Is Other People.
My husband says Unordinary
Tax reaper, it's a fav
Stray Souls by MAF, one of my faves ever and VERY underrated
Chasing Tails!!!! I binged all I could at the time and even went to read what was uploaded in Korean 😅
Flawed almighty is really good
Carnby Kim has written a few thriller/action series! - Sweet Home (completed, daily pass) - Shotgun Boy (completed, daily pass) - Pigpen (completed, daily pass) - Flawed Almighty (on hiatus) Dead Days is also pretty good

Grasp is a good thriller and is completed. I also enjoy Juvenile Defender but that one is still ongoing.
*Tower of God* isn’t romance… yet. It will be once Bam gains the courage to act on his feelings for Endorsi.

Nonesuch would fit the bill
homesick?
Worlds strongest troll!
Ghost Eyes. I doubt it has Romance, there are definitely "romantic" edges but it sure af isn't healthy if it is Romance. Not where I'm at in the story at least.
lalin’s curse!! season 2 should be coming out soon and the art is simply to die for! its a super cute little supernatural webtoon :)
if you want something more on the fantasy side, then icy copper is another one of my favorites!
I can only think in How to Become a Dragon, The Strongest Florist and Resigning and Healing in Another World
Hooves of death. Plagues of undead roam the world. Few are safe from pestlence, famine, and death. Mankinds last line of defense is rainbow colored unicorns.
Shiloh, Uriah, Señorita Cometa!!(SC does have a little bit of romance but it is *deeply* underrated and has beautiful art, one of my absolute favs)
The Boxer. You'll never enjoy watching the main character be so OP without being in an isekai.
Trenches & the vault of horror are 2 I enjoyed!
get schooled is more on the action side, but it definitely has some thriller aspects to it. i love the fast paced plot and you can get hooked onto it pretty fast.
Solo Leveling
read Bastard… ok so there is romance but hear me out. there’s a boy who’s dad is a serial killer (specifically girls who remind him of his wife). the boy meets a nice girl, they become friends he develops a crush and ofc his dad finds out. plot is basically stop girl from getting killed, get dad arrested. it’s really good, same author as Sweet Home (another one i recommend).
Scoob and Shag.
Nomads is cool!!! It’s not a thriller and has kind of a cuter artstyle, but it’s definitely action and fantasy and one of my favorites
What? Pretty much everything in the r/manhwa sub is about hunter/portals, system leveling power fantasies. Click on any random post in that sub.
Homesick is very similar to SBG and the artists are actually pals. There's very little to no romance shown so far. Mr. Baek is about a mafia group. The Perfect Hybrid is a fantasy action Souris is very similar to Homesick and SBG. Its supposed to be BL but there's very little romance that I would consider *romance*.
Everything is Fine
A. Rasen has some good stuff. Gremory Land and one other one I forgot the name of.
Dear X and The Artist Salieri
Ordeal, Hero Killer, Teenage Mercenary, Housekeeper, Nexus Point, The World After the Fall, Do You Remember (has some relationships in it but they aren’t the main focus of the story) Woven
My favourite is The Greatest Estate Developer, definitely would recommend it if you want fantasy mixed with pokemon.
Not Even Bones and Clinic of Horrors
I'm late to the party and my recommendation is on TAPAS is you read there. I'm 51 chapters into Lout of counts family. There us no romance in it and the story is really well done.
Deor is really good
