Because some people can look past the shit animation when other aspects of the show are entertaining.
Sometimes you just want to see a scene animated and hear the VAs go at it. They did a pretty good job in Konosuba too. Though your right about the lns which ofc is why I immediately went and read them.

Not really to me. If I want a continuation I will read/watch or do whatever to learn more about the story or characters of a series I like. Format does not matter at all.

It's just some people enjoy different entertainment mediums to others. Do think it's sad how little people read these days with how easy it is to read. Just because you're upset that anime didn't end doesn't mean you'll suddenly enjoy a medium you dislike. Really dislike people telling others to "just go read the manga/LN" as if that justifies anything.

I'm kind of in the same boat here.

The thing with me is (as I've already stated numerously) that I really dislike reading on electronic displays for some reason
Be it PC, tablet, smarthphone or whatever really... even when I have to read some long ass pdf for university I always end up printing that out in full. And that's quite troublesome for what we're talking about here. So no VNs for me (duh) and for LNs I do usually check out vol1 of something online if I think I'd like it. And if I do I add a couple to my bulkbuy list for once or twice a year to buy stuff in physical form. Life is hard for people like me

How does this work out. Do you just get tired looking at a screen too long? I heard some people can't read on computers or iPads but can do it on a Kindle. Have you tried that?

I think it's just a thing of not getting comfortable while reading for me? I CAN read on a screen but I really don't like it. I probably do get tired easily that way as well but that's not really the thing that bothers me I think.
Out of those, putting a pdf on my smarthphone and reading it while in my bed before sleeping or in a chair (you know, the kind of thing you'd have in your living room) is still the thing I'm the most willing to do. But even that is kind of annoying because you need both hands for the smarthphone whereas proper book is just held in one hand, comfy chair and you can read for hours.

A kindle would probably work for me. Have thought about that but never really got to try one. Would I just put pirated LNs on that? Or can you actually buy them (amazon or else) from outside JP ?

// just tried looking for KonoSuba since that was brought up and it gave me a not available message
That would be pretty massive though. You get rid of shipping costs and all and while I'd still want my favorite ones hardcover for the sake of seeing them in my room I'd so be up for getting some of the quite enjoyable but not quite willing to pay 20$ shipping + 2$ per item LNs

In what world do you need 2 hands to read on phone?

I'm doing that with just one hand. Anyways, 5 minute googling makes it look like I'd have to buy from german Amazon to get kindle versions? US and JP redirect me to GER, so that'd be english versions? Or even german? The original just gives me a not available in your country



But then again, I guess kindle + scans is probably the best solution
