When I say harder to read I mean like too contemplative or like it just drags on. Like I love shield hero but the fights have been so grating on me, they're so long and so wordy I've just been skimming fights.

Or in 86 the philosophical points are nice the first time but not the next 100 times, oh but I love the combat scenes, so I skim the other stuff except the cute shin/Lena moments.

Danmachi and grimgar I find far more enjoyable as a whole read. Honestly I'm leaning towards better writing but maybe it's just not for me

Do any of y'all have any similar issues?

I start skimming chapters and if those instances drag on for too long I drop the series. There are too many series I'm interested in to force myself to read those that I don't enjoy.

I see what you're saying. For some of these I'm just so far along I just want to know how it ends. like with shield hero I just need the closure of raphtalia and naofumi ending up together. Like Naruto, I just needed to see him and Hinata end up together and I was good. The LN Zeroth Maria was like 7 novels super good, super short, totally well rounded story with a satisfying ending. And I didn't have to alog thru it just to know the ending For some of these I may just keep up with the anime. That's way easier
