This came as a result of Light Novel publishers believing that people don’t read the blurbs on the back of the books. So their answer to this was to…. make the blurb the title.
Despite this, however, Light novels with overly long titles have very rarely topped in the best sellers, as the books that sell still tend to sell the best are ones with more traditional short titles.
So of course this trend has no bled over into manga as well because if something bullshit insane marketing scheme is proven to have no real effect other than to confuse and frustrate its consumer you gotta spread that shit to EVERYTHING.
i refuse to believe that image is a title
i cannot read it but it looks like a whole paragraph
Oh this is just the first page.
This Light novel is 196 pages long except it’s literally just the title.
Because the country name Poland sounds like “pole land”, as a kid, I always imagined Poland as just this entire country centered around a big pole in the middle of it
Then one time when I was in college, I was looking up photos of different world cities out of curiosity, and I found out that there is ACTUALLY a giant famous pole in front of the castle in the middle of Warsaw, the capital of Poland, that has been there for centuries
