@admin said in The Master of Ragnarok & Blesser of Einherjar Continuation:

@Tahu we had to make some team adjustments for the series and when you are 21 volumes in that can take some time to get people caught up...

I'm guessing that means the new people have to actually read the existing 21 volumes so they're familiar with the content and can be consistent with it... yeah, that would take a while.

It's been requested before, and you can add your request to it. But, it hasn't had much traction.

@Crimson-Wise - the real sale is the friends we made along the way ;)

@Qeeh It's our first audiobook, and things are still so new to us that we don't have a process in place yet. As such, no schedule for the next volume yet. We'll keep everyone informed as soon we have more info available to share!

Campfire cooking in another world. It's funny and full of adventure without harem but lots of fun, just a guy going on adventurers with his familiars, exploring new places, meeting funny characters. And come Wednesday there's a new volume.

So, for those who are curious, I found the light novel name by looking in my historic navigation and there is an adaption in manga under the name "Oni no Hanayome" (noicomi鬼の花嫁). There is no translation for the novel nor the manga. The novel name is "鬼の花嫁～運命の出逢い～". But it has been deleted from syosetu.
But I am reading on this website:

Ah yes, the "How difficult would you like to track down these nearly 8 year old goods" challenge.

Yes.

Most folks more or less sum it up about the same here. Barring wiki related work (For those banished to that eternal payless job), reading or collecting such pieces are usually not that important. Unless said person is a super fan of this batch of general filler.

While it's generally optional filler, it's a pain in the ass if plot relevant points are in these.

Fluff pieces are fine though. The wrong fluff in the middle of a main volume can get jarring. Like walking in on a parent sleeping with their ch-shot

@Moon-Jester Unfortunately, I don't know anything about the series, but if you don't mind potential spoilers, you read reviews for individual volumes on bookmeter.com (just use google translate or smth)
You can look up individual volume titles for that on Bookwalker series page

I like this story, but it's another Alphapolis title so it's never going to get licensed. The manga is also being officially released (if you can call it that) through their alphamanga app.

But there's actually already a licensing request topic for this one

@rickkun said in Her Majesty's Swarm Finished?:

So did it got canceled? In the current J-Novel Newsletter Volume 4 is advertised as.. Final Volume?!

The only thing "final" about vol.4 is that it's the latest volume published, and we don't know if vol.5 will ever be published.

The original web novel is split into 6 "wars": https://ncode.syosetu.com/n4568el/
Vol.4 of the LN covers the entirety of war 4 and the first half of war 5. The published book literally ends in the middle of an arc.

If the light novel ever gets a volume 5, that will be the actual end of the story.
Good English sales gave us vol.4 so I'm still holding out hope that Kodansha will publish the final book so that JNC can license it.

going a little to left field: all three literary works below are far better than their respective film versions - and all are Isekai with either adult themes or protagonists

A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court John Carter of Mars series The Wizard of Oz series

also excellent:

Three Hearts and Three Lions (Poul Anderson)

Less good but a fun read nonetheless is Michael Crichton's Timeline

@BlueDragoon said in Over-localization:

When I read "Saga of Tanya the Evil" on Kindle, it has footnotes

Purely off the top of my head, I seem to recall that the footnotes in Tanya are from the original text, not added by the localization team.

@myskaros said in After Spice & Wolf Anime, where too next?:

@Ruby-Eye The light novel is still the original source; the manga is an adaptation of the light novel. The manga is also long over while the LN kept going, so at some point you would have to switch to the LN to read more anyway.

To be fair, the spring log books are more of a sequel, running concurrent with Wolf and Parchment. The manga is nsfw, unlike the anime, so be aware of that if you read it. It also moves things around. A lot.

As a huge fan, the anime is...accurate...for the half of the story it shows. Danmachi is a phenomenal light novel series. I'm rather glad this season, since it appears they're doing a split cour; volume 12/13 in the first half and 14 in the second. Which it needs, volume 14 is a nonstop action chonky boy.

I'm rather annoyed it didn't include the three stories. Especially the closure one.

@Ekun said in Wikipedia pager -List of "j-Novel" OUT of DATE!!:

Yup! i did just this because is just a bit less than a week , so can save 1 update.

Just don't do it make a habit of it.

I believe 'coz the easy way just using G as search engine by default.

No, the easiest would have been using Amazon so there is a conscious effort to use Google Books.

And in fact, I am thinking to replace them to point straight to JNC web, at least with all the English references .

If you do that you're probably going to really annoy somebody.
