Interesting concept with a mediocre to shit execution. From my recollection the middle third is particularly bad.

>What else would you recommend from western sci fi
Do you want interesting scifi-y ideas or good writing? Because you're not getting both.

>and there's probably a good reason you don't see them in stores anymore
I assure you whatever that reason it is not the quality of the work itself

What do you guys think will be the next book adaption that actually gets decent mainstream popularity?

ok, fine.

The female archetype is grounded on the heroine's journey.

You can look it up on wikipedia.
For males, their core archetype is to suceed the trials and defeat their rivals, win the prize/treasure and bring the world cup back home, and marry the godess/priest.

For females, their archetype is rather a reconciliation and healing of the sexual trauma of losing their virginity that was caused by some male rapist (usually their father or male house authority or family male authority) while they were young, that caused a psychological scar that caused a destruction of her self, making her go into a sleep chamber, until the charming prince rescue her from her sleeping hybernation, and helps her fix her soul, with the helps of the forest familiars and animals and old wizard mentors, until she suceeed in becomming the new queen and defeat her evil rivals by marrying the prince and becoming the land new queen, in a beautiful and perfect country side palace with gardens, farm animals and a couple childrens.

That's the core female archetype.

As for the tropes, It usually boils down to a Chad archetype male chad that falls in love with an average good for nothing girl.

And for techniques, It usually boils down to obstacles that the couple must overcome to be finally safe and togheter by the end of the story, with some initial failure of the relationship downward point, a recovery of the situation and a final climax where they fight the big villain of the story.

That's pretty much it.

How do adults read this?

Am I the only STEM fag here who is unironically shit at writing and has absolutely zero ambitions in the field?

He wrote a YA power fantasy in which the protagonist gets cucked

It's supposed to be a trilogy but rather than writing the third book he streams on twitch

Because it's dominated by cape shit writers and people trying to emulate them. We are the video-game audience now. Can't people see this?

It looks fucking amazing, as much as it pains me to say. The books were absolute dogshit, and there's a chance that this will be better than those.

The Witcher TV Series looks like shit compared to this.

Imagine if they did this with the Second Apocalypse
Alas, I've lost all hope. Release the No-God at least so that I can die in peace, Richard

If your friend thinks this will change your mind on vaccination he's either never read it himself or is incredibly fucking stupid.

Read it anyway, it's an easy classic.

If I care more for people to read my stories over making money, is a good idea to make a website for my anime stories?

If anything, how do I market my website?

Should've mentioned WALL-E

My girlfriend gave me 2 books as a present, from authors I've been talking about.
This made me really really happy and I felt loved.
We just had a fight and she said I never think about her, and how she thinks of me and buys me presents when I don't buy her anything. I tried telling her it was unfair, we never agreed to buy each other presents, she just gave me them out of nowhere. It didn't matter to her.
In rage I told her to not buy me anything, if it means she will use it to yell at me, and so I went to my bookshelf, picked up the 2 books and tore them up in front of her. She had a shocked look as I came in with them, and as soon as I started tearing them she started crying.
She's picking up her things from the apartment now, as I lay in my bed.
