This place is huge.


It's really, really big.
<Snipped quote by Meta>

"A light novel (ライトノベル raito noberu?) is a style of Japanese novel primarily, but not exclusively, targeting middle- and high-school students (young adult demographic).[1][2] "Light novel" is a wasei-eigo, or a Japanese term formed from words in the English language. Such short, light novels are often called ranobe (ラノベ?)[3] or LN in the West. They are typically not more than 40,000–50,000 words long (the shorter ones being equivalent to a novella in Western publishing terms), are rarely more than a few hundred pages, often have dense publishing schedules, are usually published in bunkobon size (A6, 10.5 cm × 14.8 cm), and are often illustrated,[4] mostly with manga style art. The text is often serialized in anthology magazines before collection in book form."

"and are often illustrated,[4] mostly with manga style art."

The SAO light novels are just shorter manga. Same with Raildex's LNs, though it also has a novel series.
Even Artemis Fowl's LN was just a shorter comic.


Each issue is longer than manga and mostly words.

Not really. Manga are just bigger light novels in japan.


Light novels are actual books. They have words.

Okay.

What about you?


More or less, I guess.
