If the premise or main subject can't be conveyed with a title under 5 words let alone 1 it will usually end up being forgotten and shit

long names is a light novel thing because the market is over saturated and its easier to convey to a potential reader with a name like "to defeat the demon king i have to fuck his harem?!" than a traditional title like "demoness heartbreak"

The title and premise are the hook and the storytelling quality is what keeps people reading beyond a few volumes

Actually the thread topic just says “The shorter the anime/manga name is the better it usually is”, ironic that OP was trying to save a few words and fucked his idea up

iirc it started because early webnovel websites were incapable of indexing summary/tags, only later light novel publishers realized that it's an easy way to filter target audience.
