Light novel fans – and weebs, in general – enjoy poking fun at how wordy many light novel titles can be. In fact, some LN’s can have names containing up to 30 words.  Pan Tachibana, a light novel author, explains that long light novel titles are a product of necessity to distinguish one’s novel from several other books competing for a buyer’s attention. Such long and descriptive titles quickly inform a potential reader about relevant details and stoke their interest.
