Read somewhere that's because the mangas in the store just show the title at the front. By putting the whole story premise into the title prospective buyers can see at a glance what the book is about without picking it up.
Give it a little time and books will be intriguing again with a mysterious short title.
Or the word avalanche will spread to other media
That sounds like the PG version of Chuck Tingle titles.
Of course with AI it's impossible to tell which covers are real without going to a site with a definitive list, but I confirmed this one
No way this is real
Perhaps the Mothman sexiness is too overwhelming? That's ok, you can always go with Not Pounded In The Butt By My Book 'Not Pounded In The Butt By Anything And That's Okay' And That's Okay
Or maybe you just need things to be a bit more self-referential, so there's always Pounded In The Butt By My Book "Pounded In The Butt By My Book 'Pounded In The Butt By My Book "Pounded In The Butt By My Book 'Pounded In The Butt By My Book "Pounded In The Butt By My Own Butt"'"'
That's partially true. It's because the web novel that the manga is adapted from used the premise as a title for optimized SEO so that their story can be seen by more readers.
I'm just repeating a thing I read elsewhere, but I heard it's not strictly SEO optimization in the classic Google rank sense, it's that the most popular webcomic portal in Japan doesn't include descriptions in its browse page.
It's awesome practice. I don't read manga, but do watch the anime adaptations. It gives you exactly what it says on the tin. I love it.
Some can get a short name after some time. Like
And others have a short name followed by a longer one like
Makes it a massive pain in the ass to find them on watch/read tracking websites, especially when they have those ~ and 《》in the title (or subtitle). As an avid Manga reader, I have started skipping those series because, more often than not, they are just as uncreative as their titles. SEO or not, a good story will be spread by word of mouth. These writers are just screaming they don't have confidence in what they are creating.
Exactly I've never found one of these long titles stories that weren't mid, and if they are good the fandom will come up with a short name for it so you don't have to deal with the long one
Might start a web series called "My journey into becoming a mangaka online but the evil CEO of 《SEO CORP》has stolen my creativity and now I must fight an army of robots!"
Whatever the hell people would expect from that title, it won't be that.
"Poop Gun"
Wait, so is the gun made of poop? Does it fire poop bullets?
Then the sequal:
"Oscillating doormat"
Sounds like Chinese tattoos on Americans who've never left their home state.
Is it related to Diarrhea 4?
I remember, didn't britaun used to do that too during the early 1900s?
