Lol, just wait until their LN to manga/anime adaptations end and then they want more. That's what made me move from anime, to manga, and eventually a bit of light novels (but mostly web novels).
There's a few web novels that I started following because their manga/anime adaptations kept me wanting more.
Having said all that, I don't think I've really settled in. I tend to skim WN chapters rather than read them, and even after hundreds of WN chapters, I still have no idea what the hell has happened (other than a basic outline of the plot so far), or maybe that's just due to the quality of writing. That's why I tend to prefer manga: It has more content than anime, but still giving me a better mental picture of what's happening.
Some of the webnovels I'm following (but not religiously) are:
Yeah yeah, that's what I hope happens. Na macurious sila sa daloy ng story that they start reading the novels. I pointed them to A Certain Magical Index and Classroom of the Elite as examples of brilliant light novel series that have crappy anime adaptations. One of my friends dived into one LN - That Time I Reincarnated As A Slime - but nothing more, nothing less. Well, I guess that's a win. Somehow.
Hahaha~ Yeeeep~ that's the gateway drug into LN, it's not for everybody tho.
I actually wanted to venture into LN back in the Haruhi Suzumiya craze, but nothing came out of that. It's probably one of the things that led me to self-studying Japanese though. The thought of reading the original LNs in their original language or sth.
