    Cryostatis implies Frozen which is not the method it happens in all scenarios

    It doesn't matter. The def can be perked.
    But, I feel that as necessary as this tag is to me, it should only be implemented if there are at least like 3-4 novels... otherwise, we can just let it stay as an extreme case of time skip.
    3-4 examples on NU

    For name of the tag i have a suggestion, "Stasis"

    Another thing, some tags dont have definition and feel redundant like "shoujo ai subplot" and the corresponding "shonen ai subplot"

    *still waiting for @runsing and @LaDyViL's input*

    Ah, those aren't, they are meant in case it exists, but doesn't involve the main characters.

    Kinda like Touya and Yukito in CCS.

    Stasis...should fit but at the same time too loose. It only means a period of inactivity, when here what you need is something where the MC is frozen or gone into a deep sleps, waking up after a certain time in the future. I can see its potential, so I'm fine as long as there is a good word to use for the tag.
    Or just use Waking Up to the Future or Deep Sleep lmao
    You know those stories where the Main Couple is boy x girl but there is BL or GL side couple stories. Those uses them. You can propose a new definition if you feel some tags need a better one.

    Deep sleep works i guess... Waking up in future is too long.
    I don't have a problem with those tags, it's just that they dont even have a definition

    I don't mind Deep Sleep as long as no one confuses it with Terminal Illness or Coma.

    Heh, haven't you seen the full tag list? Let me list some.
    - Appearance Different from Actual Age
    - Complex Family Relationships
    - Emotionally Weak Protagonist
    - Glasses-wearing Love Interests
    - Protagonist With Multiple Bodies
    - Seeing Things Other Humans Can't
    - Siblings Not Related By Blood
    - Strength-based Social Hierarchy

    I'm cool with it. With usage, it'll become a normal thing. It's like Black Belly, that tag is not because their belly is black, people got used to it after a certain time and constant usage.

    Now to wait for other's opinions. They must be out pranking people....

    I am assuming that the mods would implement it. Also what was the consensus about the name and which one is finalized?

    Not really, since you were the one that proposed it, you probably know better which novels it applies to.

    Name... Uhn... I dunno! >.<

    Cryostasis is good enough IMO.

    Even if it isn't necessarily by freezing, the definition can take care of that.
