I had always hoped that novels like zhui xu, the outcast, nine yang sword saint etc. Etc. would be translated.
Female based novels like 'my master disconnected yet again' would also be a great plus
But, even after posting and bumping several times, it seems to be a dream of far future The worst part is-they are not even being translated by independent translator out of fear that it is qi
I just want for the novels that have a lot of readers to be finished earlier. What's the point of having more novels to read if none of them is completely translated?
Water0202020 The latter

And the novels we see do well in china?
OMDGEAR most of the current top 20 billboard ranking novels remain untranslated(unless independently)

I've been on the site before, but I could never tell how popular they are using Google translate. Is there a way to tell? I don't understand the site enough.
OMDGEAR well, just 8-9 of 20, and 15-16 of top 50 novels are being translated.
And, this is just the current billboard. There are plenty of old novels which were wildly famous yet are left untranslated
Water0202020 Of the 20, 4 of them are History genres. They are terrible for western readers. They aren't even considered popular in China. Seems like the rest are almost all translated except for one or two.
The 24 hour hot sales board isn't very indicative of a book's popularity since a mass release can result in one of the books appearing there.
The ones that constantly do well are mostly translated already, if not, already being translated and will be put in the pool in the future.
CKtalon if that is so, then I apologize

Also, will zhui xu and the outcast(mao ni) eventually be translated
Water0202020 Perhaps, but Mao Ni's works are generally quite poorly received by Western readers...
Lonelytree no wonder so many translators dropped the novels after a while...
