    Hi! It's been awhile since I've made my last thread so this feels a bit awkward :sweating_profusely: but here it goes! This is a thread which has been requested occasionally so here it is!

    As of September 26th 2020, here are the top 10 longest novel names on Novel Updates:
    1. Ace of the Human Resources Department Is Reincarnated as a Villain Girl Who Will Be Sentenced to Death Regardless of How She Gets Up! ～If You Dress as a Man to Survive, You Will Live in a School as an Aide of a Ruthless Prince (226 characters)
    2. An S-ranked Party's Burden Tamer, I Awoke My True Power by Having My Familiar Killed ~The Exiled Tamer is Actually the Only Necromancer in the World. Unknowingly Becoming the Strongest While Enjoying this Excess Power~ (218 characters)
    3. I Transferred to Another World and Became a Hero. It Looks like They Will Be Executing Me After I Defeated the Demon Lord Because I Am “No Longer Needed,” so I Will Ruin the Kingdom Through My Powers of “Domination”! (216 characters)
    4. The Demon King From Another World Likes to Tease His Childhood Friend (the hero) Because He's in Love With Him ~The Demon King, Who Has Already Been Defeated, is Being Doted on by His Childhood Friend, the Hero~ (211 characters)
    5. Welcome to the Impregnable Demon King Castle – The Black Sorcerer Is Offered a Seat as a Member of the Demon King Army's Top Brass After Being Kicked out of the Hero's Party Because They Didn't Need Debuffs (206 characters)
    6. Though Young People Recoil From Entering the Black Magic Industry, I Found Its Treatment of Employees Quite Good When I Entered It, and the President and Familiar Are Cute Too So Everything Is Awesome! (201 characters)
    7. Though I Have the Unique Skill 『Save & Load』, I Will Be Expelled From the Hero Party No Matter How Many Times I Start Over, Rather Fight Back- I Deal With My Ill Fate and Mess up the Hero (187 characters)
    8. I'm Being Paid ¥ 300,000 a Month to Say ‘Okaeri, Kyo MO Ganbatta NE' to a Hardworking Neighbor Oneesan Who Earns ¥500,000 a Month but Doesn't Have a Use for the Money, Which Is Really Fun (187 characters)
    9. [Reincarnation] Reincarnated in a Different World Dungeon With the Unique Skill “Smoke Ruler” and Reincarnated Into a Mysterious Life Form, So This Is the Strongest Power [Ryujin Musou] (185 characters)
    10. The Strongest Clan's Master Is the Weakest and Most Evil Support Class ~Even with a Fail Job「Talker」, with My Brains and Dependable Allies' Abilities, I'm the World's Strongest Seeker~ (184 characters)
    If you're curious about the previous thread I made, you can take a look at it here: https://forum.novelupdates.com/threads/top-10-longest-novel-titles-on-nu.56484/

    The rank #1 from that previous thread didn't even make the 2020 list blobmelt_thumbs

    Now @Tony how many novels of those novels have less characters in their description than in the title?
    And which are the worst offenders in term of ratio( exclude zero word description novels)
    Or just ignore me while i farm nuffies for @Get Tony To Tease Parth Fund

    Example the first one is 320 chatacter description for 226 title, so the title is 70% of of the description

    Btw, you should make one for the top 10 shortest ones too! ^^)/

    And hooray for a new Tony-chan thread! It's been a while! \(^^)/

    10 shortest doesn't make much sense because you can't get lesser than 1 character, unlike longest. but if you scroll up to my failed post, i already put 5 of them.

    how about 10 novels with the most translators count instead?
    -or novels with most 'added to recc list'. (i had premonition that most, if not all of them will be bl)
    -or novels with longest description ( cough 'innovating' cough @DocB idea). although for this one, i hope it excludes descriptions with *fake dialogue snippets. i hate those types of description.

    Fake dialogue snippets? o.0

    Well, that one is new for me. So the description is essentially a bit of the novel's dialogue... Except said dialogue never appears?

    That's bait at the highest level I tell you~

    sometimes dialogues suggest things that never happen in the novel itself

    Oof... Yeah, that's about as bad as it can get I think! >.<

    I mean, geez, wtf? What's even the point of making a description like that?!
