@rahul-balaggan said in Differences between releases?:

The Bookworm premiums are Textless color pinups, which you can read about in that list.

These usually are the cover illustration and the main color insert (found in the normal edition) in higher resolution.

Also note that JNC premium editions are DRM-less in an widespread format (epub), so you are not locked to a specific device or app.

In Place of My Older Sister

Incidentally, Wilfried had brought the ceremonial blue robes that had been made for Rozemyne last year, albeit with a few minor modifications so they would fit him.

This Charlotte's comment is one year after Hasse's punishment was announced. Then Rozemyne has already been the high bishop for more than half a year and even the remaking of the ceremonial robes happened a year and a half prior. Should this be "before she became high bishop" or "a year before becoming the high bishop" or something?

@blacksheep can you send out another invite to the discord server? Thank you.

@jcochran I think that the worst parts of the anime are present in the second season, which is ironic considering that the first season adapts 3 volumes but the second only does 2 but frankly is there where I think that the most cuts went through and where the most annoying changes were made. Basically everything outside the temple suffer severe cuts including Tuuli character arc, Benno's restaurant, all of the Guntenbergs and the worst changes Lutz conflict with his family in the end of P2V1 and the scene where Ferdinand read Myne's memories in P2V2. In Lutz case they made his dad be a complete asshole when in the LN is position is much more nuance and is made clear that this was a problem of miscomunication between all his family and in Myne case they change who the scene play out completely and the fact that they cut Ferdinand pov in the end but decide to dedicate a whole episode to Eckhart(Kardest firstborn) and Justus extra chapter from Part 3 is just puttig salt in open wounds.

@hiroto said in Ascendance of a Bookworm Vol. 6 (Manga) Discussion:

I'm just curious if any of you here purchases ebook publication.

One perk of the manga publication is that it come with one original side story. For this volume, it is

spoiler

Same as bonus manga in LN, this story is not available in prepub.

I buy both the physical & ebook versions. The extras are awesome.

@pcj she can but because its not a book :D she even wouldnt wonder is there a piano or not :D but yeah if she wants to she can.

@shiroi-hane said in Help me update my facts please:

@caroline with the current beta of the app you can just tap on each volume in turn to see which parts you have read as they will show with coloured in blue for partially read parts or green for fully read parts. Keep going till you get to the unmarked stuff that you haven’t read (although you’d need to buy the book to access the parts now).

You can also get this information all on one screen using Crimson's Progressive Web Apps (PWA) based JNC reader: https://crimson-jnc-reader.appspot.com/ (see https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/3353/yet-another-pwa-jnc-client for discussion thread).

@SomeOldGuy At the point of Rozemyne's proposal it was already clear that they would need a duchy wide contract after her talk with Benno. It was the reason she was talking with Ferdinand: to request an admission with Sylvester.

@Garion said in Bookworm Part 2 Vol. 4 Discussion!:

Four UNDER those magic wands, we see a contract, possibly a submission contract for Myne? Maybe there is a magic fight over it. (you can see the finger prints in blood on it, showing it as a contract)

I mentioned this earlier but I reckon those four magic batons are used by the Knights order and are there to represent Ferdinand, Karstedt, Sylvester and Damuel.

I never put that together. Good insight.

@torresleon In the 7th manga volume, there is also a POV chapter from Corinna POV

How come I wasn't aware of this Bewkworm Place?

@crowdcontrol said in Ascendance of a Bookworm Vol. 7 (Manga) Discussion:

@crowdcontrol I like this manga artists and all myne's facial expression. I plan on buying all the physical english manga from j-novel. I don't think I would be buying the manga of the other artist though that is doing the other part, even if it ended up english translated. That art is just not the same. Its inconsistent quality. Some part it looks good, but most times it looks horrible

I like the artist for part 3, it’s the one doing part 4 I dislike. I hope they let the person doing part 1 & 2 do part 5 though.

@frostfall

Thank you all for replying. (By the way, I read all 151 pages because I didn’t want to ask something that had already been covered.)

Your answers have giving me some insight as I had been going in a different direction, which is he had been holding out for something. Instead, while he wanted all of the thing she offered, he didn’t want to do something new...

Which makes sense as he only engages in battles he knows he can win. Of course, this all just sparked new discussions in my household so that’s good.

Again, thank you for your thoughts.

@db0ssman She may have opened up a new printing shop, but she's not taking away Illgner's ability to make paper... which is what they were doing in the first place. They were less a region for printing and more a region for papermaking. They didn't even have a print shop. Plus, she made sure that the man Brigitte married was of her own faction; essentially, she said "If you're going to keep being in the printing business, you'll have to be hitched to my star." And Giebe Illgner agreed to that concession.

From what I have heard the 3rd season will show up Winter 2022 or Spring 2022, we might get lucky with Fall 2021. I expect the season to finish up Part 2. But wonder what other people think?

@quof said in Reinterpretation of Bookworm Beginning (Myne/Urano):

At the end of P1V3 Gunther mentions to Otto that he thinks she was blessed by the gods with knowledge (which thereby changed her).

"The gods must have taught her. Myne's a girl loved by the gods."

How could I not have remembered such a direct statement of the author's intent? 8-) I believe I shall take this literally. 8-)

@jcochran That works. I never read Aspirin's Myth series, but I remember Phule's company being fun.

I'm looking forward to seeing what ditter actually looks like.

@paul-nebeling said in IRL Teas inspired by Ascendance of a Bookworm:

@kingcaesarrex Doing a spit take over that price.

Yeah...no.

But I did order some tea samples.

Right, I forgot the epilogue of 3.4! Thanks for the explanation!

My suggestion for formatting with your given goals in mind would be something like this:

Sylvester, Archduke
Aub Ehrenfest VII

or

Sylvester (Archduke)
Aub Ehrenfest VII

Either of those would look better when the given name is unknown.

??? (Baron)
Giebe Blon

Also you could consider flipping the order of title and name that would help with the situation that a "bubble" would start with ??? less frequently.

Giebe Blon
??? (Baron)

Oh, also Joisontak is missing his titles.

@arghc said in Part 4 Speculation Time:
but she could go to hoverboard (or winged sandals??) for more subtlety. 8-)

Pandabus slippers!
