    I was bored of all the anime and manga, read a lot of them. Korean webtoons started becoming popular but I binged them and I think I read comments talking about WNs and JNs. Don't remember what I read but Tate no yuusha was the one that got me hooked in, followed by mahouka and vanadis. Then I read Xian Ni manhua and I needed to find out what happened (my first CN!) followed by MGA.

    I was reading the manhwa of Duluo Dalu and saw that there was a novel for it and in the same way I discovered Coiling Dragon and got hooked up with them from then.

    I came to anime when I got my internet connection watched Pokémon online during summer holidays and read DD manga on later part after getting bored by Pokémon and got crazy due to the updates time of DD . Google sama paved the way to wuxiaworld which later led to MGA and then harem novels search led to novels updates and later to where I am now .

    A novel addicated time waster.

    At one point I thought reading too much manga have rotted my brain. So I decided to read something with more words and less pictures. Couldn't get myself into mainstream novels so here I am reading novels with reincarnated shits.
