Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.
(Redirected from Light novel)



Light novel is a Japanese category of Young Adult Literature, oriented towards the middle high and high school demographics. A distinguishing characteristic of light novels is that they are illustrated with an anime or manga art style and are often adapted into such media. They are mainly published in separate book volumes, while some of them have their chapters serialized in anthology magazines before being collected in book form, similar to how manga is published; in that sense, Light novels are an evolution of pulp magazines.

From the 2000s, many publishing companies has recruited writers from the internet, and in some cases Web Serial Novels are given the chance to jump into printed publication as actual Light novels after some editing. In such cases, please include the work within both categories.
