It does say sometimes "dot dot dot" for "...", though,

Ha ha, yeah.

There's other workarounds for the prepubs too. Turn on Shake to Speak setting in your TalkBack setting on Android. Download a TTS extension for Google Chrome on the PC. Use the Microsoft Store unofficial app for Windows Devices someone posted that has a play straight through function.

But I would definitely love some kind of official text to speech functionality (with a pause and rewind function especially, but if that's too difficult, so be it).

I absolutely need this for Bookwalker light novels too since those have no work around to have them read to me (I mention this every time I take a survey there).

You can get one of those in the US by going to any pharmacy or big store that has gift card sections. I remember getting those to buy cheap gold for some games and not getting my ssn/cc stolen since the sellers were kinda iffy. You had to call to activate the card tho and it worked like a regular cc. Well depending on what you plan to use the card for when you call to get it activated and they ask for a SSN just tell them you don't have one and they will activate it w/o your SSN. That's if you plan on using it for more stuff. Another awesome thing about those cards as I had multiple I would use them for free 1 month trials that required a cc number XD . I was a broke boy back then and this helped with free Netflix for a year. Granted I had to pay for the cards to get money on them but I still didn't have to pay for Netflix.

@helge-könig said in RSS Feed eBook publication confusion:

So I wish to propose that the eBook releases will only be posted to the RSS Feed if that book is indeed availible

It is available, but only on amazon and other retailers. Premium ebook have its own release date which may be different from others (either because of error or because they needed extra time to make premium things). Library's "available at ..." is kinda useless near release date, indeed.

and that time zones will be added to the date anoucements.

Date in the library doesn't tell the whole story because it has some time of the day set as well and timezone won't do you any good without knowing exact time.

It seems that the staff here operates at some US time zone, which is exactly why I thought I could trust the RSS Feed to keep

Times are served as UTC and they are properly calculated locally according to your time zone so that shouldn't be the problem.

Anyway, go recheck the library. The book should've become available few minutes ago.

I would also appreciate if new revision would be anounced via RSS Feed, as this is my primary souces of infomration.

The Google Sign In API is not supported by the App, which is why you need to disable the sign in procedure by setting up a password here at the page. You can then use your username and newly added J-Novel password to sign in to the App.

@jampodevral non-catch-up-month catch-ups happen too. Plus there's an eternal Rokujouma catch-up.
'Previous part' button sounds mostly useless, though. It's only gonna get distracting.

The dream of having my one Kobo book read

You know that Epub's Adobe DRM as used by Kobo is... not as unbreakable as some publisher's would like?

Yeah, but it still seems a pain in the rump. I guess the dream is still alive...

Edit: The Dream Is Dead! Can't get it to work. =[

I know people who have avoided JNC because they were not able to pay via PayPal so it definitely seems like a worthwhile addition.

@sam-pinansky I see, but then there is nothing stopping you from just having the premium link show up earlier than the amazon one, is there?

I disagree on this one. I think that outside of weeb circles, Shinkansen is actually one of the more common things for someone to know it’s name from Japan. My dad probably knows what it is (and he is as far from a weeb as you can get, I doubt he even knows what pocky is). In fact it comes up in autocorrect on my iPhone whereas tsundere doesn’t. It’s ubiquitous in the same way that the BART is in SF and “the Tube” is in London.

@smashman42 Done. The package is in the google drive folder (/0.1.2/RokujoumaReader.RokujoumaReader.apk)

@Pegasolo
With the current amount of series right now I just buy Rokujouma every month and occasionally buy books from Grimgar, Arifureta, and Realist Hero which I finally caught up to the latest release of both Arifureta and Realist Hero. Next time I buy in bulk it would only be Rokujouma and Grimgar unless there's an update for the other 2. I'm also thinking on buying Paladin but I'll have to wait until JNC starts updating again on January.

Even if the only bonus contents are just textless illustrations it's still okay with me because they're DRM-Free. I just don't like using the e-Readers that are required by DRMed e-Books and also the format of how the text and images looked like in the e-Book itself so I prefer just extracting the text and images and creating one myself and using my own preferred reader to read them. It's something I bought with my own money so I should have the freedom to use it however I want rather than being restricted to read them only on certain apps with their not so good format.

You have every right to make a new thread. But I thought I'd make you know that we already have a thread called "novel pick up request". There we usually post all the novels we want licenced.

Nice choice if I may say so myself.

@anpan Yeah, I mean, 11$ for premium plus 10 credits for 6$ = 71$, and 71$ / 11 credits = 6.45$ / credit. So I'll go with that.

Nice, I am curious if this change will eventually be reflected in my Kobo download or if it remains because it is already released?
