I know this relates to books, but I think more people in this forum would be more knowledgable on the question.
Just how many animes/games have been made into actual novels? I know only now have they started to get licensed and come over here and they are looking appealing to me... Here's all of the one that I know have been lincensed so far, but what else is there?
.hack//AI Buster (well kinda... there's also .hack//ZERO and novels based on the game that are unlicensed)
CLAMP School Paranormal Detectives
Full Metal Alchemist
Gundam SEED
Love Hina
Onegai Twins
Onegai Teacher
Paradise Eve (well a game, but still)
RahXephon
Slayers
Vampire Hunter D
Another short question... I'm curious to know just how much sexuality they'll depict into words :/ Onegai Teacher looked like an interesting anime but the ecchi just pushed me away from it... maybe the novel's more light-hearted? :/ Probably the thing that interests me with the novels is that they are like a fan-fic, but the real published deal. Oh and one ore question... are these more first person views or narrative?
anime into novels?

Tactics, D. Gray-man, and Fushigi Yuugi I know for a fact have spawned their own respective novels. I believe there's at least one more D. Gray-man novel coming as well.
And if this counts, the series Kyou Kara Maou was based on a series of books called Maru-Ma.

I think Sailor Moon is a novel too.
I knwo the mangakas do the art for them but as for author... not sure on that one :/
Were those Sailor Moon novels, those "Sailor Scout Handbooks" or whatever that Tokyopop had that was just little stories about each senshi? I think that's all they were... I'm guessing they were American made too.

It was announced this past week that a couple of Love Hina novels will be translated to English and will be coming out the first of next year. Also, I believe some of the Read Or Die novels will also be making their way to the States.

I was unaware that Love Hina had novels attached. I'll have to give that a try

Boogiepop Phantom was based on novels which will soon be appearing on US shelves. *dances*
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.
Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.
But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

I bought the .hack novel. Depending on how good it is I may get the Gundam Seed one as well.
But to answer the quaestion I only knew about .hack, Gundam Seed, and Full Metal Alchemist having novels. Though I have seen Macros novels.

That's me locked inside reality's maze
Come someone make my heavy heart light
Come undone, bring me back to life
It all starts with a lullaby

Those Jack McKinney books were nigh unto awesome. The man captures those blazing starfights so vividly that his books are just a thrill to read. Most enjoyable novel/anime conversion I've ever read, personally...much, much better than the original Mobile Suit Gundam novels.
