"Now dont blame if the time comes where the top 20 are only female oriented books and translators are switching to them. DONT SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU GUYS."
Now the real question is wheter translators pick a novel cuz they like it or because they expect to earns big bucks from it?
Now if the translators are as greedy as you think, then yes, we are fucked :s

    The10thCrow What you mean is, I'm right and you can't think of a way to manipulate the truth with your rape logic. But, of course, I'm the one who's "cherry picking." Talk to me again when you have a valid point that you didn't pull out of your ass to justify being a shitty human being.

      It really doesn't help how the site is marketing their books to the female audience, and the choices they make in what books to release a majority of the time. It's very narrow in its scope. The good way to see it is the female audience is choosing a decent bunch out of a sea of the sameness of choices they are familiarized with.

      Sovereign_of_Books That won't happen until at least 2000ch later...xp If there is romance there's only small excerpts which makes up 0.01% of whole series. Even if MC falls in love it won't take over everything. Life will be the same, MC will still focus on spiritual, mecha piloting and physical training to reach the peak and become the strongest in both strength and authority.

      She wants to be king, in order to protect what she holds dear (her mother). None of that dumb romcom nonsense. Even crossdressing, she does it to protect her father's rights. She trains several minio- cough cough I mean comrades. They call her "boss" and revere her. She thinks since they trust her so much, she'll at least pay them back with guidance. Her nature is hegemonic and cool as f x3 I love her.

      Did I mention her life story is basically courting life and death? She seems to be cursed in doing so, fighting enemies too strong for her and pushing herself to the brink when leveling up. In the government, someone is planning conspiricies to get rid of her. A great deal of messy domestic politics will be deeply involved after she graduates from military school.

      The world is set in a futuristic, sci-fi, mecha, space militant setting. Star wars- cough cough galaxy wars are a common occurence. The world and technologies being described are immersive, especially the battle scenes! Hooey, the author writes exciting ones! x3 Though being a military-focused novel, it can be patriotic when involving other nations. If you put that aside, there's not much to fuss about. I don't read it for the patriotism anyways. xp

      At first I was a skeptic too, like "sigh, another cliche gender bender =-=". but when I actually read it, I was like "this is what I've been looking forrrr forrreverrr!" and started crying.

      With that being said, I hate how Webnovel systematically categorizes every Female lead novel as romance.

      :[ grrr. Romance is far from describing this!! (｀Д´) ! (｀Д´) !

          Lazy_Scorpio "Still a lot of MCs sometimes cause themselves trouble from their own attitudes when it could have been avoided."

          Please, Male MC's have this problem more. And often to extreme lengths of "I must stay lowkey unless a random person pisses me off in the next chapter, then I'll reveal my secret for all to see of course."

            Well I did notice a steady trend of traditional romance features, especially CEO Romances in the past few weeks. I'm a BL, fantasy, action, adventure, historical fiction writer and reader by nature. I'll only read a traditional romance in a review swap. Otherwise, I'll shun it since the last romances I attempted to read (to pique my curiosity about all the hoohaa) glorified domestic violence in some scenes. I'm not a big fan of those types of stories.

            I don't really care about female/male oriented novels as long as you can filter stuff you do not like and who cares if a top list is filled with novels I dont like as long as I can continue to read what I do like.

            That being said, I do have a sort of explanation for this phenomenon. Since the female oriented books are picked first when I want to get more daily SS on the "what's next", I just click whatever pops up, same as I did when there were only a "what's next" that didn't care about male or female oriented, I dont care about them I just want my stones. And I believe I'm hardly alone in doing so. :partly_sunny:

              The female novels are just a prologue to the broken dam of flooding yaoi shit.. So beware and brace yourselfs!

              Influx of such novels is really frightening .. not that i care very much

              Most novels with female leads are so cliche that I honestly don't fear that they will dominate this site in the future. It's just that they are easier to write and, as mentioned, have a bigger reader-base. The author makes more money etc. but that will eventually stop since no normal human can write these boring stories only.
              I am not against female leads, they as just as good as male ones, but I really dislike 90% of the romance novels on this site that have a female lead. They mostly cliche and stupid and even their titles... My Secret CEO WIfe, My CEO Husband Hero... etc.
              WTF are they so focussed on CEOs? Managers of large business companies have the most boring lives ever...
