The zeitgeist of the light novel, web novel, manga, and anime industries have changed in recent times. More and more readers are deciding which books to buy and consume from just the front cover and title rather than reading the synopsis or plot summary. Authors have adapted to this change by putting the synopsis in the title of their books or naming their books so the title alone tells the reader everything they would want to know about the plot.
Many such books have become wildly popular or have at least seen enough success to receive an anime adaptation, such as Fuse's 'That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime', Takeru Kasukabe's 'My Mental Choices are Completely Interfering with my School Romantic Comedy', Takafumi Nanatsuki's 'Shomin Sample: I Was Abducted by an Elite All-Girls School as a Sample Commoner', Jun Sakyou's 'I Couldn't Become a Hero, So I Reluctantly Decided to Get a Job', and many more. This trend in book naming has also spawned some titles that don't tell you much about the details nor have they gotten popular, but are long and ridiculous nevertheless, like Kuzu Shichio's one-shot web novel 'Because My Toilet Turned Into a Dungeon, Taking Care of My Business Has Become too Difficult'.
This story is an experiment. The title is straightforward and tells the reader what the story is about. You could start the story and know what to expect without reading the synopsis. So many authors hop on the trend of this new series titling convention that only the less-than-one percent find massive success. The experiment being conducted through this story is to answer a question. Can you boost the popularity of a story by giving it a long and descriptive title?
Five initial chapters will release on their own schedule. Plenty of chapters will be written and stored in advance, but how many of them are actually published depends on the novel's popularity. There will be one new chapter for every thirty views or one new chapter for every ten collections. These ratios will scale up or down based on changes in popularity. If the view count or the number of collections suddenly skyrockets, the number of views and collections per chapter will increase. If the rate of views slows down or the number of collections falls, the number of views and collections per chapter will decrease. This way, it can also be gauged whether or not a story can become popular with a constantly changing release schedule.
I may write fifty chapters for only five to ever be seen, or I may write fifty chapters and find myself needing one hundred more. Whether it sinks or swims, I hope you can get something out of this experiment. Let's begin.
