It's funny because you can tell when an anime is from a Japanese light novel or not based on the length of the title.
Solo-Leveling: Korean Light Novel
True Beauty: Korean Webtoon
Blue Lock: Japanese Manga
A Sign of Affection: Japanese Manga
Oshi No Ko: Japanese Manga
Backstabbed in a Backwater Dungeon: My Trusted Companions Tried to Kill Me, But Thanks to the Gift of an Unlimited Gacha I Got LVL 9999 Friends: Japanese Light Novel
Banished from the Hero's Party, I Decided to Live a Quiet Life in the Countryside: Japanese Light Novel
My Instant Death Ability Is So Overpowered, No One in This Other World Stands a Chance Against Me!: Japanese Light Novel
IIRC it's because the dominant Japanese light novel website doesn't do descriptions well so the authors make the title the description.
A few tried to have a normal title AND a description in the title.
Failure Frame: I Became the Strongest and Annihilated Everything With Low-Level Spells: Japanese Light Novel
Arifureta: From Commonplace to World's Strongest: Japanese Light Novel
