@harmlessdave Absolutely with reading the LN. In addition to additional details, you get lots of things that there's no way the anime, even with a second season coming, could possibly cover. Truth be told,

@custodes It's been a good trip. I hope the author ties up the biggest loose end. Although the synopsis for the next volume hints at it, I'm not counting that chicken until it's fully grown, never mind hatched.

I've got the feeling the ending is going to be a touch bittersweet and maybe a bit like Paying to Win.

There was already a lengthy discussion over on this other thread a couple days ago, you may want to ask there.

Okay I actually found a topic under Licensing Suggestions which I didn't know was a thing, so that answers my question lol. I can't exactly post a link though since it's forbidden apparently.

As long as the ship comes with plenty of anti-shipping missiles and a few phalanx turrets for defense, I'm happy.

@pcj said in How do you count chapters before ebooks are released?:

JNC's app keeps track of which parts I've read pretty decently while I'm still reading that volume.

This. I use the app to read, be it pre-pubs or e-books (yay beta ap!) so I've never needed anything else to keep track of it.

@jon-mitchell That's unfortunate but thank you very much for the answer.

The original text looks correct to me.

"Those without strength or natural talent must never flee from effort."

"The useless are only so because they struggle to the very end!"

Because these two sentences have the same meaning.

Both mean: keep going (=keep struggling) even if you have no talent (=you're useless)

The bonus stories are often from bonuses exclusive to one store or store chain in Japan, and the Japanese publisher only lets JNC include them with the Premium digital editions.

You don't get them if you buy digital books from Amazon, B & N, etc. or in print, only with the JNC membership Premium version because that was the terms of the license.

it'll be interesting to see what happens with Crunchyroll's manga subscription service now that the Sony buyout is final

@wellwisher you got number 1

Probably when some publisher makes an announcement saying so? Most of the time if it's a JNC novel, I'll see someone posting the release announcement in the thread for that novel in the forum, if someone happens to see it.

@mapokl said in Dungeon Busters- problems.:

As for food that would be harder to do when more people starts going to dungeons. But as for single person? I doubt in any city shops goes out of stock because of food for additional 144 people.

Also, unless anime and LNs are lying to me the Japanese still use cash a lot more than western countries do. He can hit up multiple stores in multiple areas and pay cash for camping food, energy bars, jerky, trail mix, instant dried food, canned food, etc.

Once he had teleport he could even do that all across Japan, and it's a good way to launder some of the cash from the dungeon.
