    Imagine asking a jp wn reader what their favorite novels are. You will need an entire page just to fit three names

    You should see the chapter titles for Residence of Monsters (just check the ToC page). They're multiple lines long and all absolutely hilarious.

    Cough...so. I think I've found a new record holder. I didn't really want to make a thread for this considering this one was still pretty recent...so yeah. I just clicked on the 'latest series' and this was the first thing that came up haha

    When My Childhood Friend Dumped Me and I Was Expelled From the Soccer Team, My Other Childhood Friend Started Hanging Out With Me to the Point Where I Didn’t Want To Be Around Her (Ex) Anymore. EH? You Want Me To Come Back Because You’re in Trouble Because I’m Gone? I Don’t Know Anything About That
    (299 characters! I guess if there was a period at the end it would be exactly 300, too...)

    Had already included it in the edit. It was 304 characters initially, but the TL cut off the last word to make it 299, and from what I hear, they have submitted a request for it to be shortened much further, so...

    Oh, interesting. I guess after the title is shortened this one can be put in the alternate titles instead xD

    Title aside, doesn't it kind of seem like the description also pretty much seem to give away the whole plot or something? lol
