The dataset contains 31 series, 850 chapters, and 460,266 line-level records organized from a series / volume / chapter corpus, with 25,148,311 characters, 4,255,333 words, and 7,317,880 tokens measured with the Qwen/Qwen3-8B tokenizer. The default Hugging Face dataset view uses one row per text line. The original hierarchical text layout under `novels/` is preserved alongside the standard `train-*.parquet` export. The source texts were manually reviewed and additionally strict-cleaned to remove obvious wrong-language pages, placeholder pages, glossary pages, Wikipedia/archive/project pages, translator-note pages, duplicated entries, and other non-story material, while keeping in-book forewords, afterwords, author notes, and commentary when they belonged to the original volume. Copyright and translation rights remain with the original rightsholders, publishers, and/or translators. This dataset should be treated as a restricted research dataset and should not be assumed to be freely redistributable or commercially reusable.
