  I'm hoping for Grimgar, Realist Hero, and Faraway Paladin, but not all at once since I probably couldn't handle that while taking care of irl stuff. And if I end up having more time that I thought I still have piles of physical non-JNC books to catch up on. I've read 9 volumes of Grimgar as I started collecting the physicals before became a JNC member, but I want to sell my physicals and switch to following the weekly releases. I haven't read Realist or Faraway Paladin past the previews but I like the premises and I've heard they're good so I'd like to try them.

  I noticed for Rokujouma it is for all 31 volumes but that should include the .5 volumes as well so there would be more than 31. Volume 32 is out in Japan also and that should be included as well to maximize this kickstarter! Just a suggestion 😁

  3/4 I need to catch up with, so this is good. I just haven't read one volume in Clockwork iirc.

  Thanks. I noticed a library in a system near me had quite a few of the Faraway Paladin volumes. =)

  @cheap88 this is a long dead thread, so you should probably upvote and comment on the official recommendation thread to show your support.Though be warned that Micromagazine has already turned down J-Novel in the past. https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/1295/being-reincarnated-into-this-otome-game-world-is-damn-tough-for-a-male-mob-character-ln

  I have both a kindle and a nook and prefer the Nooks reading experience and I like to support BN but do find that more books are easily available on kindle and Seven Seas doesn’t seem to have any of their LNs on Nook. I want to buy Lodoss War on Nook and will give it a month or two.

  @myskaros As far as "holding water" I think your comments do a good job explaining your perspective and that it's a reasonable one. I do think my inherent dislike for the reincarnation element is pushing me towards viewing it as replaceable instead of a compelling element. I still want to say the story could be done without the reincarnation element, but it's easier to say that than it is to have to write out a full story that's still compelling.

  Love mystery, but I'm more of a suspense guy than horror, myself. But as I said elsewhere, could to have a range of things so. :)

  Or have a central text repository that both pull or are generated from (knowing nothing about how either versions are built).

  @_08 We got a copy of the manuscript from Seven Seas and they fixed a typo or two and maybe edited a couple of paragraphs a little. And they changed all the ... to … Other than that identical. I'd be a stretch to say the print was a superior version than the ebook (Aside from it being a physical book).

  I didn't see the actual AMA, but I did see you on reddit and checked out the site the other day, but today became a member. Right now the site looks like it's more potential than substance, but from what I can gather you have already put in a lot of the groundwork required. Looking forward to seeing where you can take this site. Well done and good luck

  Although Mixing Bathing isn't something for me, I'm excited to take a look at The Faraway Paladin. Fingers crossed that some jousei/mystery/psychological titles will be licenced soon. Thanks for the new titles. Keep up the good work guys!
