Obsidian plugins with #novel-writing#

The Japanese Novel Ruby plugin displays and inserts ruby, or furigana, using a syntax common on Japanese novel sites such as Aozora Bunko and Shosetsuka ni Naro. It renders ruby while you edit, can show or hide ruby preview in source mode, and from version 1.2.0 can enable ruby only for notes with the `enable_ruby: true` property. You can also change the ruby marks for other formats, for example replacing 《》 with 【】. Its commands cover dialog based insertion, direct insertion in the editor, emphasis dots, ruby removal, hiding ruby until hover, and toggling source mode preview. The interface is available in English and several Chinese variants as well as Japanese. It does not support markdown ruby format, and half width `|` breaks ruby inside tables.

The Japanese Novel Tool plugin supports Japanese novel writing with correct paragraph indentation across Reading view, Live Preview and Source mode. It renders ruby text and emphasis dots written in Kakuyomu, Aozora Bunko and Narou notation, with commands for inserting or removing that markup. Optional editor marks reveal full width spaces, tabs and line breaks. Character counts appear in the status bar and can also be shown beside headings for their sections. The counter can exclude whitespace, line breaks, ruby and emphasis control characters, callouts, Markdown comments, headings and Markdown control characters through configurable settings. Two commands copy the current heading section with or without its heading, including nested subsections, while files without headings can be copied in full.

The TsumugiMark plugin introduces a vertical writing workspace aimed at authors working on novels, screenplays and Japanese text. It opens the current Markdown file in a dedicated vertical pane, keeping it visually separate from the standard editor while staying fully in sync. Edits flow both ways. Type in either view and the content updates immediately. The plugin supports ruby characters for furigana using a custom inline notation, making it practical for complex kanji heavy writing. A built in character counter tracks total length and selection size directly from the status bar, which helps with manuscript limits and pacing. Visual preferences are flexible, with controls for font family, size, spacing, and how characters are counted.
