The modern trend in American entertainment titles is to pick names that are as short and artisticly simple as possible; like 'Dunkirk', 'Logan', or 'Baywatch'. Japanese light-novels on the other hand have gone in the complete opposite direction; their ridicilously verbose titles are more like summaries of the most ridicilous plots imaginable, with readers having to invent nonsensical title-abbreviations like 'OreImo' (My Little Sister) for titles like '"Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai" (My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute).
If American entertainment adopted the same conventions, I imagine we'd start seeing movies with titles like 'Dunkirk: The Great Clash!! Desparate Struggle Against Nazi's on a Cold French Beach', or 'Wolverine's Last Stand! Old-Man Logan Reluctantly Travels to North Dakota', or 'The Baywatchers: Dwyane Johnson and Zac Efron's Buddy Comedy Disaster!'.
And no, as ridiculous as these sound, we're not making these titles up and yes you can actually buy these books.
