Beowulf.

The leading theory is the the whole universe has finite volume (even if we still can't see most of it). Although we've mostly ruled out it being a 'sphere' where any direction you travel leads back to the same spot after the same distance, it may be a 'torus'. Like packman where if you go far...

Its not a problem with only beauty pageants. Football and law school also have the same issue. Its a cultural thing, where the ideal of honoring your elders becomes corrupted into being the possession of your elders.

For me its more about the source of conflict. For an overpowered protagonist, what kind of threat can make them struggle? The answer is nothing except themself. If they are powerful, invulnerable even, then go further and say that nothing can threaten them. Some such protagonists are still...

I tend to prefer characters to plot. I can enjoy thousands of chapters of endless filler if I like the supporting cast.

I don't pay attention to chapter counts, but I rarely read anything less than 100k words. For chapter size, I am a distant outlier and prefer chapters to be around 8k~10k words.

I don't like any protagonist who will kill an incapacitated opponent. I also am not interested in a protagonist who likes to watch his opponents struggle or suffer, nor one who lives for fiery vengeance. What kind of evil is the protagonist holding? If they are cruel or merciless I do not like...

Gotta pick range. Interstellar bombardment is difficult to counter. Just hide out on a frozen dwarf planet from the outer reaches of some other solar system and constantly take potshots at your enemy. You at least know where you are trying to aim, your opponent has no idea if you are even in the...

Overlord Tony is very secretive about his algorithms. I do not expect anyone here would be able to tell you more than speculation. Purely hypothetically, when you first launch your story the similar stories might just match the tags you picked for it, while after you reach some threshold it...

It even has its own videogame.

I can barely even imagine a country that isn't mostly funded by interest on student loan debt.

Congratulations. Are you planning college? Be a proper Zoomer and rack up student loans that are impossible to pay back in one lifetime. The government needs your debt because they don't get enough taxes!

You still have options. Have you described how curly her hair is? Zelda's hair is very straight. You can give her corkscrew drills or really tight fluffy curls. Although that may no longer be believable at this point, since they are pretty direct parts of appearance. Does she wear a braid or...

The concept of sanity is flawed on a fundamental level. It aggressively contradicts itself; nothing in this universe can be simultaneously sane and alive. Thus the belief in sanity a mass delusion. Nobody is sane.

Those things can be nasty. There may be a few (that I have not encountered) that are actually thoughtful commentary on social norms, and there is nothing wrong with the premise itself. However most such stories boil down to "I want to make evil/violent women submit to me through physical force,"...

Arifureta. The MC was too angry and violent for my taste, and I nearly dropped reading it several times. However the MC mellowed out after rescuing the kid from the sewer, and it became more of an average read to me. It wasn't until the after story (which includes the vast majority of content)...

While we already have polygamy, polyandry, and "harem-seeking protagonist" tags, we do not have a polycule tag. I have seen a fair number of polycules in stories lately, and the social dynamics seem different enough that having a distinct tag may be warranted. Any thoughts on this?

I expect that an MC who cries is one of those character traits with no happy medium. Few readers like an MC who only rarely cries, while a whole lot prefer either an MC who never cries (which can be the case for several reasons, not just psychopathy or invulnerability), or an MC who is very free...

From three to five is optimal. Its not so much about exact numbers as it is roles. Aim to have 2-3 different combat styles or roles (including the MC), at least one character to stimulate the MCs protective instinct (and maybe trigger a Cursed Powerup if they get kidnapped), and one character...

Best job for a tentacle monster would be Air Traffic Controller. Used Car Sales Representative is also worth considering.
