I'd love to see light novels, webtoons, manhwa... But with the current number of users, I believe more generalist communities work better than several specialized ones
Well on the website that shall not be named r/fantasy had LN discussions pretty often, and r/books occasionally. Isekai/fantasy LNs can go to whatever the new fantasy community is, the rest can go to c/books or stick around in c/anime i guess.
Yes I am, I only need a reliable source of novels. Legally or "otherwise" I just want some app that allows me to easily access light novels and that actually works.
What's the situation like purchasing outside of Japan? I tried for decades to buy ebooks and neither Kobo nor Amazon would just let me give them my capitalist tokens as long as I didn't have a Japanese payment card.
Just pirated the books eventually because it was literally easier than trying to pay them.
Technically there's [email protected] but as @[email protected] pointed out it's probably a better idea at the start to dump everything into one community and then move as demand develops
Recently (finally) finished "Release That Witch", I also have read "The Book Eating Magician" and Solo leveling and now planning to start "The Kings Return" but its even bigger than those 2 above, I feel like I will spend most of this year reading it.
... which is kinda not the worst point tbh, it feels nice to be immersed in some universe for this long.
Yep! Horrible isekai light novels are my guilty pleasure to read before sleeping. Admittedly, i haven't read any recently.
I don't think there's enough light novel readers on lemmy yet to create an **active **community though.
