Much great writing is now actually living in the realm of the fanfic and the self-published. This is not the death of art; if anything, it speaks to art's creation having become so prolific that there is no publishing-house gatekeeper that can contain it. It's hard for me to take seriously a "Where are all the novels?" critique when there is currently a very active long-novel-title-to-multi-hour-anime pipeline running at white-hot intensity. Perhaps the author missed them because they're in Japanese.
