LP Novel 

A novel whose prose is, at times, lyrical in that it is styled with rhymes, wordplay, and alliteration.
The Streets: An LP Novel is the world's first LP novel. The tone is set with the opening paragraph: Back in the day, Franco told T they were gonna take this trip. Hop the Turnpike straight outta Jersey. Fill up on Philly cheesesteaks. Run the Rocky stairs. Blaze through the dirty dirty. Push a hunid thirty thirty. Refuel at a bodega in Talladega. See the city serenade that is a Nawlins jazz parade. Next to West Texas...

The most amazing and beautiful girl you will ever meet. Noelas are easily one of the kindest people ever. They have the purest hearts and will do anything for the ones they love.
Noelas also make the most compassionate and truest friends. Likes to be the most intelligent person in any room but isn’t an ass about it. Extremely talented and artistic. They are unique heavenly beings, if you ever see one bow the hell down. The most important person you’ll ever find in your life so never let them go. To have them is to have happiness.They have an appetite for adventure and are rebels just for kicks. there is truly nothing that they would not be up for. Extremely outspoken but painfully hilarious. She can make anyone collapse into fits of laughter, if only you can make her care enough. Best kisser there is and ever will be. Hottest and the most fun in bed. But is also the most perfect cuddle buddy. Always smells amazing and has the softest skin. Noelas are extremely stubborn and can be cold when their heart is broken. Since they love hard and give you their all. They will never trust you again. Always do right by a Noela.
“How is she so perfect and yet so nice?”
“Must be a Noela”

“Fuck man. That Noela is end game bro!”

Light novel syndrome 

When an anime gets adapted from a light novel, and the anime ends too abruptly with very little closure. Often, the anime will not get another season and it ends on an odd cliff hanger.
Notable examples that suffer from light novel syndrome are "Is it Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?", "No Game, No Life", and "Spice and Wolf."
I loved "Overlord" but it suffers from light novel syndrome. We haven't even seen other humans yet!
