What genre of BL Novels are you most interested in reading more of?
Trying to gauge the attention of current readers due to a decrease in readers coming to the site. If you pick [other], then please leave a comment describing what type of novel you would like to see. If you are unsure of what genres we are speaking of, please refer to the examples below the poll form.
Thank you for participating.
Examples of novels:
Lengthy novels with smut and fluff
I really like novels with quick transmigration with a fluff..
Chef in modern era, cute beast store and the cubs šššššš
In novels I like to read how the characters slowly fall in love. Thatās probably the reason why I like quick transmigration so much, because you can read multiple times how they fall in love. So yeah, I donāt like it when the characters get together in the first few chapters. Genres I personally donāt feel much for are mpreg and abo (although sometimes I make exceptions for abo if the plot is good enough). What drew me to this site was when you picked up LMW from the former translator, I was so happy every day you updated the story :). I really admire exiled rebels for their high quality translations. It also made me realize how much work went into your translations, especially for mangaās. I now check for manga if I can read it on the actual translatorsā site instead of mangago.
As for your decline in readers I think it might be due to your most popular novels (GDC/LMW//..) having been read by most danmei fans already. I also think that itās due to recent novels being somewhat shorter length novels (might be wrong on this), or just a bit less eye catching. I donāt mean offense by this, but everytime I see a new novel Iām not very excited by the description. So it might also help making descriptions on the site and novelupdates more interesting.
I’m interested in plot focused stories regardless of their genre. I’m also currently obsessed with Feitian and Huaishang storiesššš
I first came for LMW, returned for MDZS and stayed when I found you also translated Spring trees and sunset clouds. All three are wuxia/xianxia-ish genres. I would like to see more of those again. Ideal are novels with 50+ chapters. That way I can invest myself better into the plot.
Quick transmigration novels often have repetitive plots, itĀ“s pretty hard to find a good one. When I decide to read QT novel, I expect good portion of face slaping and drama. If the characters are fluffy and all over themselves from the beging it gets boring pretty quickly.
Horror stories are fine if there is HE of sorts (I can handle the hurt but then I demand my comfort). Online gaming oriented themes are a meh. Half of the text consists of in game chats and gaming terminology which IĀ“m not very close to. I have similar problem when character have some sort of social media platform and comments from their fans spam most of the chapter (thatĀ“s why I dropped cubs around chapter 40).
Modern and comedy are fine I guess. I enjoyed both Spirit hotel and Mr. Fashionable, and Iam a chef in modern era as well ( it was great when you included pictures of food in the chapters).
Anyways, thank you very much for all the work you did! You are quick and reliable with the updates and the quality of the translation is high too. IĀ“m sure IĀ“ll keep on coming back. š
I love variation. Grandmaster of Cultivation was a Favorite but because of drama. Moderns like Ageless Seducer and Heart of a Smith were really great.
I love fantasy and transmigration as well.
But Peerless cultivators was interesting smut. Definitely smut is needed ! but mostly more novels as not enough to read and new novels more often. I will always stay with this site but have found others with more to read, but loyal to Exiled Rebels firstly.
i usually base my BL selection on artwork. but for novels i prefer comedy and clangers.
I’m sorry!
I love you all and your choices (except BE I’m so so about that) but I haven’t come too frequently the last few months because I took 3 summer classes!
Plus I like to binge and I thought coming back to binge would be a nice treat.
Wuxia, Xianxia, and Fluff!!! I really really love transmigrating or reincarnating stuff too
Novels which includes:
At least 100 chapters
Interesting plot development
Character development
And a little bit of smut
Although I love Mo Dao Zu Shi to my ‘golden core’, I won’t like to read anymore novels like that. It can’t be compared to anything else…
LMW is my all-time favorite, l do really like the transmigration, cultivation stories.
No specific genre for me as long as bl and have a good ending..My heart can’t take the tragic endingš A lot of things happening around sooo
I donāt know much about this stuff but I came for the omegaverse, i lufffff the omegaverse
