It's hard to know whether it's an author or a publisher that's dragging out a series, and if it's the author why they're doing it (money, attention, lack of ideas for a new series or after story, etc.)

Failure Frame drove me away when it reached a perfect point to end the main story arc, but then the author threw in a reset to drag it out (forever?).

I'd much rather read the Skeleton Knight or Realist Hero approach where the author finishes their arc then starts something new with the story. Otherwise it turns into kid cartoon shows where the bad guy escapes every episode so they can come back next week to sell new toys.

Maomao is the only standout example I can think of. She is absolutely surrounded by sex, and occasionally romance, but only ever engages with it at an intellectual level. I'd appreciate it if someone familiar with the ace/aro spectrum could give an analysis of her (non)sexuality.

Addressing some of the other suggestions:

Myne from Bookworm is a child for most of the series (which is a lot.) If your head canon is that she is ace and mostly aro, you can read it without cognitive dissonance. Potential marriage partners for her are a plot point on several occasions, and romantic attraction or how hot the potential partner is are not factors in her reaction to the possible pairings. If you haven't read Bookworm, you should, not because of ace representation, but because it is Bookworm.

Wild Last Boss just never thinks about romance (at least that I remember) so although technically every character could be considered ace/aro, it doesn't give me ace/aro vibes.

If you think it's already polished enough to release to the general public as a paid novel, you do have the option of self-publishing through the Amazon kindle store.

For that you'd probably want to have had a professional editor go through and point out any problems with it.

For sharing a web novel for free, the suggestions above make sense.

@dennisambler the series is published by Drecom Media in Japan, and they've only had Blade & Bastard go to v4 (and beyond) of works they started. V3 is the latest one released there. So not officially cancelled, but I'm not expecting more any time soon.

So, about the ones I read:

Are You Okay With a Slightly Older Girlfriend? Is great if you're fine with the premise of a 27 years old woman and a 15 years old boy dating, which wasn't a problem for me. The series technically is not concluded from what I heard, bit it reached a good stopping point.

Why Shouldn’t a Detestable Demon Lord Fall in Love?! Is ok if you are looking for something sickening sweet.

Guide to the Perfect Otaku Girlfriend: Roomies and Romance is an ok romance between otaky and gal, nothing particularly special but if you like the genre is a nice read.

Reincarnated as the Piggy Duke: This Time I'm Gonna Tell Her How I Feel! as others starsc isn't 100% romance but is more of your average fantasy isekai. I enjoyed it, although it's brought down a bit by the apparent inability of the author to stick to his ideas until the end.

Endo and Kobayashi Live! The Latest on Tsundere Villainess Lieselotte is a series I appreciate reading and I usually don't read villainess stories. It has a good romance and lots of nice characters. The version currently on sale is the manga, though.

@Reshes

My favourite is A Late-Start Tamer's Laidback Life by Yuu Tanaka. It's fun and fluffy and cheers me up.

@myskaros Hello, I am wondering if there has been any update on this?

For stories with female protagonists there is also I Refuse to Be Your Enemy! (though it lacks that tag for some reason) and The Extraordinary, the Ordinary, and SOAP! as well.

@unknownmat - Hanashi has a more reasonable release schedule for other titles like I Saved Myself With a Potion at April 16 for volume 1 and July 30 for volume 2 = 3.5 months, and Gate volume 1 March 25 and 2 on June 30 = 3 months.

did your post get cut off?

@myskaros thank you! I was sure it was a forgotten project, I will be looking forward to it then 😊

Having visited a couple open air baths in Japan (Hakone and Kobe), yes they are amazing.

It is generally the ambiance. As very few can be "natural" water that promotes XX.

I'll add to the list
My Daughter Left the Nest and Returned an S-Rank Adventurer

which is already complete, and thank whatever supreme (or not so supreme) being out there does not degrade over time, and does not end up with the daughter pining for her father.

@RuneKnight3 I haven't seen any English / Original Light Novels published by Yen, etc. but that doesn't mean it hasn't happened.

Aside from the JNC contests, all of the ELN/OLN I've seen on Amazon have been self-published for kindle.

@heimdal7 only 3 volumes in Japan.

Welcome to JNC. The Streaming section of the forum is for discussion of titles being published by JNC not other publishers. Perhaps a mod can move it to the Light Novel Discussion section. [ Moved. Thanks Rahul ]

What is it about Irregular at Magic High School (the English title) that you like? Are you looking for English or Spanish language novels? This site is for English light novels.

There are dozens of series with an overpowered main character, for example (English titles again):

Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear The New Gate Land of Leadale In Another World With My Smartphone

Also, some people arrive here looking for web novels or not legal copies of novels. JNC is a publisher like Yen Press that licenses novels from the Japanese publishers, translates them to English, then sells the English novels on Amazon, Apple, etc. and through the website.
