Why don't they mass release Hello Mr. Major General or Most loving marriage in the history???
Also when will we get new chapters of The Beautiful Time With You??
euphy_megumeru Lol, almost half are male fics though. Maybe your eyes are just spinning due to the long list
This week is pretty balanced. And it's finally a decent list of discounts. Looking forward to it
Discount for The Beautiful Time With You when it's not even being updated anymore
Finally, a lot of REAL (5 or higher) mass releases. Thank you, translators.

ace_cap Saying that when the 3 is on top of the regular releases, making it 4-6 chapters released a day is demoralizing. I guess anything less than 3 won't be released in the future. Why bother mass releasing when you call it 'not a real mass release'
Note: I'm in charge of about nearly 40% of those books that are released in 'not a mass release' releases.

Soul of Searing Steel, nice.
Long list of mass release, double nice.
(I wish) Limited free reading, priceless!!!
CKtalon any chance for discount to buy SS ? Or maybe more bonus SS ?
GegeSadewa There might be one soon.
CKtalon NB I am talking about translations here coz I know the situation for originals is different. There was a time when mass releases were at least 5 chapters and some novels had regular releases that were 3 or more so yeah, my standard was set by how webnovel was before. Gradually they lowered what they called "mass release" and I remember commenting about that before too. If you find that demoralizing, then that's sad, but like somebody said, it's one person's opinion. I'm sure it won't keep you up at night. Webnovel likes lowering the standard little by little, probably counting on the newbies to be happy with how things are since they don't know how things were. Oh well.
I am of the opinion that a mass release is like 10 chapters. I guess it depends on the chapter length but when FMHM had a 5 chap mass release and the content is like 5 pages you start to question if it is worth it to "Mass Release".
Is_It_Out_Yet So the alternative is nothing? It is a release beyond the usual release, and en masse.
CKtalon Interesting. I did not notice any increase in the regular release rate. If anything, it has gone down for several novels. In any case, what you said is an excuse, but it still doesn't make 3 chapters a mass release, especially for those romance novels that have really short chapters. It's more of a mini release. A mass release implies you can binge read. Nobody's saying it's not worth releasing 3 chapters, just that it's not really a mass release.

Woah! Are you a ONCE?
ace_cap The several novels you talk about are just like 10-20 books over 300 translated books. Overall, there is a rise in release rates. There will always be some books that will have trouble maintaining a speed due to variety of problems (real life issues, etc). And if a book returns to normal, there will be bound to be another book that will have problems later, and that's what keeps your attention that MANY books are having problems, when it's just a handful for a period of time. Once the issue is fixed, things go back to normal, but that is often conveniently forgotten.
Years, ago it was 3 chapters a week, and 2 years ago, it was closer to 10/week, now it's almost 14/week for the longer male chapter books, and about 21 for female books. Together with the nearly weekly mass releases, that raises some books to 17 (longer) chapters/week.
