| When was it exactly that good light novels got adapted in the first place? Most light novels don't make it past one season of anime which is far FAR from a full adaptation even if they're great. That's like 2-3 volumes of a ongoing much longer book series. The anime are just promotional tie-ins to increase the book sales at this point. The only full adaption I know of is maybe Shakugan no Shana since the 3rd season feels like the end but I haven't read the series. |

Gosick, Durarara, Fate/Zero, Fate/Apocrypha, Gundam Unicorn, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, My Youth Romantic Comedy is Wrong as I Expected, and Toradora are all complete to my understanding. And let's not forget that A Certain Magical Index, Sword Art Online, and Monogatari have dozens of episodes and continue to get new seasons. |

| Because there are more factors of an adaptation being created than whether the source material is not "garbage." That being said, off the top of your head could you even name five light novels that aren't "garbage" that haven't gotten adaptations. My assumption would be no if you've never read a novel at all. |

Anyways...You don't need to read light novels in order to have an opinion about them. This isn't 15 years ago. There are so many Anime adaptions of them now that you can just watch them. And? that STILL doesn't mean I haven't read any. All I said was that it wouldn't matter even if I didn't read any due to the fact that LN adaptions are common now days. Lucifrost said: Zeroflamez said: I changed the title. It's not any better. Why does it matter that anime based on novels are bad, when so many other anime remain great? Or are you trying to say that today's anime all suck? That's exactly what I'd like to see more of. All of the LN adaptions that are coming out now are just horny neets in fantasy worlds like you say or have overly convoluted stories like Index where you literally need a road map as a guide in order to watch it. I just miss when we got decent-good LN adaptions like the ones you listed as well as others like Full Metal Panic, Baccano and Durrara. Oh, so that's what you mean by "garbage." Too bad your premise is faulty, as we do continue getting "decent-good" anime. https://myanimelist.net/anime/15583/Date_A_Live https://myanimelist.net/anime/34284/Yuuki_Yuuna_wa_Yuusha_de_Aru__Washio_Sumi_no_Shou https://myanimelist.net/anime/33003/Mahou_Shoujo_Ikusei_Keikaku https://myanimelist.net/anime/33502/Shuumatsu_Nani_Shitemasu_ka_Isogashii_Desu_ka_Sukutte_Moratte_Ii_Desu_ka https://myanimelist.net/anime/35079/Kino_no_Tabi__The_Beautiful_World_-_The_Animated_Series https://myanimelist.net/anime/33352/Violet_Evergarden Oh yeah the "I can name 5 LN Anime adaptions that may be good so it means that they aren't bad overall" Invalid argument. Try again. SuperWarior2012 said: Maybe I'm looking wrong into this or you just forgot you wrote: Zeroflamez said: This looks to me like you admitted you haven't read any.

You're literally making assumptions. Just because I said that does not mean that I haven't read anything. I meant that even if someone didn't read the LN it doesn't matter cause there is an Anime adaption for damn near every LN now. |
Zeroflamez said: Oh yeah the "I can name 5 LN Anime adaptions that may be good so it means that they aren't bad overall" Invalid argument. Try again. I’d be able to name more than 5 if I watched every anime. But I didn’t, and neither did you. |

| If only classroom of the elite had more seasons. ryuuen vs ayanokoji would be amazing to see. a physical battle alongside a stragtical battle. fucking brilliant. more fans of the show would come along. and the chess match with sakayangai. and tsukishro. the possibilities for more seasons yet these trash ones get adapted. fucking harem garbage with no substance |

| hmm... if i had to guess, it's because you think the only light novels getting adapted are garbage, that's about the gist of it right? |

| Because the production committee, investors etc are fan of those light novels too. |
| It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person. |

Rokka: Seven Braves of the Six Flowers Sacred Blacksmith Sky Wizards Academy Spice and Wolf Sunday Without God Tokyo Ravens Trinity Blood Tytania Unbreakable Machine Doll Undefeated Bahamut Chronicle When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace Wiseman's Grandchild ...which could use more seasons and probably have the material. Granted some of those got more than one season, but I wouldn't really call them active projects at the moment. |
