Basically, most of these animes are light novel adaptations and the market for then in Japan is extremely saturated. So by making the title as descriptive as possible, there is a chance that it will catch someone’s attention as opposed to having a nondescript title.
It happened because people figured out putting the whole synopsis in the title on the main LN/WN site in Japan gave them more clicks and then everyone started doing it.
It’s basically the same as YouTubers having to put their face in thumbnails to get clicks.
Honestly, as a huge anime nerd, these names are getting a little ridiculous. It doesn’t stop me from watching them, I just don’t get it.

Is it wRonG to Name an Anime INCREDIBLY descriptive in a Streaming Service World?? So What!!
I consider them being ridiculous is a whole point? It’s often fun for me reading those, especially when they’re pushed ad absurdum.
It’s only a matter of time until anime titles and wish/temu item descriptions collide.
