You probably guess that this thread will not take itself seriously, but WRONG. BAM! expectation subverted!
If you get the reference, then you'll know that this is also a satire, so expectation actually did not get subverted. Double twists!
Anyway, as a reader, I've gained a (useless) ability that can differentiate various novels with just their name alone. After all these years, I've compiled a few of my tricks into this thread.

- Long Title that is basically Synopsis: you're in for an isekai, comedy, and mostly slice of life.
- Short, compacted Title that described something: Will take themselves seriously, probably fantasy
- Title that is a sentence involving "I, me, you, we, us": Romance-focused, usually fluffy
- Poem-like title: Might be romanticism-type novel, is a tragedy, and should have a hint of mystery
- One or two grand-sounding adjectives: Xianxia/Xuanhuan
- Excessive Expression of Love as a title: Yaoi
- Has words "Chronicles/Tale/Journey/Legend": Fantasy, from zero-to-hero
