Wait you read SAO? Anyway's you judge all Light Novel's just because you disliked one series? Not saying its wrong for you to SAO dislike SAO, to each there own, but judging other novels w/o reading them yourself is ignorant.

No? I only mentioned SAO because it's not only bad but it's also overrated.

Bad is your opinion, more people like than dislike it, the sales speak for themselves.

What novel did you even read then?

Well ofc it's my f*cking opinion, do I have to label everything I say with "in my opinion"? Sales doesn't speak quality for most part. Hence why I said it's overrated. I don't care if people like it.

Have I read any of them? Yeah. Kagerou days (lame), NgNL (I even gave the anime a chance), SAO, KnB, log horizon, accel world, etc. etc.

Well you talk like its a fact and calm down, I didn't even mean to rustle you Lol.

Haven't read Kagerou days, KnB, or accel world.

I plan on reading NgNL and Log Horizon, because I enjoyed their animes.

It's good, but there are lot of mixed opinions about it though.

Ist half of season 1 is great, but the 2nd half is meh.

1st half of season 2 is great, middle arc is meh, final arc has little action but its really emotional.

I recommend the Light Novels though, they are better.
I heard the final arc is the best.
I just started watching season 1. I enjoy it maybe because I'm a gamer so it intrigues me.
Do you know if they'll be making season 3?

No news on it yet, they will probably hold off on it till the current arc in the Light Novel is finished.

Could you please elaborate?

Most people don't like it because it isn't as action packed as they thought it would be and they feel like the romance in it is cheesy, it all really depends on your taste though, so its better to try it and see for yourself.

No surprise really, saw this coming. Though I'm curious about how well the sales of the Yotsuba Succession Arc will go, the hype is real there...

At this juncture, I only await the announcement of Season two.

After Mother's Rosario, how many arcs are there?

Only one, but its a long one. I believe its taken up 6 volumes so far, so when they make season 3, it will be almost made up entirely of that arc.

Sweet! Well judging by how its been so far that anime won't be released until next year or maybe by the end of this year.

LOL...It was obvious Mahouka would be in top. Kinda surprised that Log horizon isnt higher and no Highschool DxD

WAIT there is no Absolute Duo or campione :(


I guess Absolute Duo's volume 7 sales didn't go well, so it didn't make the list. It was released on the 25th of December.
As for Campione!, IIRC the last volume was released in September last year. Next volume will be released probably by Febuary, along with Mushoku Tensei. :)

Well that's pretty expected since the anime gave the LN sales a HUGE boost.

I haven't read the Mahouka LNs yet, but I doubt anything on that list can top Toaru Majutsu no Index.

That series is Amazing. When I started reading the LNs a few months ago I couldn't stop until I finished them all 30 of them. The 9th volume of the sequel was one of the best things I've read ever. You should give it a try.
