Unfortunately, we do not know what the current status of the series is. There does not seem to be a new volume planned for release in Japan yet.

Add another vote from me to get the books from Rightstuf.com. Not only do they have the items and they are easy to find, but they also do a MUCH better job of packing them for shipment. I can't tell you the number of times I've bought books, even EXPENSIVE books off amazon that have arrived loose with no packing in boxes, that I have to send back for being damaged.
.
That being said, I'd really recomend picking up an ereader in your case. You don't have to get a kindle, I like the Onyx Boox models. They are a bit pricey, but they run android which means they can read just about any ebook and pdf format like those you can get DRM free from jnovel, and still install the kindle or kobo or bookwalker or barnes&noble apps if you have books purchased through those services.

@admin said in About Der werwolf series license transfer:

We have gotten confirmation from earthstar that our rights for the novels 1-13 are fine, however we will need to negotiate with square enix for rights to volumes they will publish.

Hopefully that won't be too difficult!

They got their own English publishing operation last year under their own imprint, hopefully they honor their promise from then that they'll continue licensing to other North American publishers...

@myskaros said in Hi! A question!!!:

jobs@j-novel.club

Thank you,
I have just sent an e-mail on the aforementioned link.
Please, let me know if there's a possibility.

Also due to Covid, license negotiations and getting all the material together and authorized may take longer than usual.

@Kemm-mf Yes it’s long past the campaign and the slacker-backer period. Like I said, extra physical copies, and maybe even the digital versions, will be sold to the usual retailers, though I’m not so sure if they’ll be producing very many extra copies of the drama CDs/Dvds.

That is a bit unfortunate then, though I can understand why if Bookwalker financed it. I was planning on buying the Arifureta series here on J-Novel and still do, but the bonus story in volume 10 is a bit annoying how it is exclusive as it isn't worth getting over J-Novels version (only 1 bonus story versus 6 on J-Novel).

Does anyone know if the Author still has plans to write Volume 13? He is still alive and well?

Just finished this and I absolutely loved it! I especially like how honest she is about her circumstances and the way she described her youth shows a lot of self-reflection. I was very moved when she talked about her difficulties because I think my personality is similar to hers (though I loved school and I'm not as fearful of people).

This isn't an in depth look at the anime industry the way Shirabako is (though it definitely has a lot of insight in the industry just because that's the author's main work). I would say it's more about her relationship with her mother and her journey to find a place where she belongs in the world. The place just happens to be the anime industry.

I really want to watch The Anthem of the Heart now.

Thanks for the info. New name kinda sounds not as cool imo, but ah well.

@Rahul-Balaggan Thanks.

@LegitPancake unfortunately, not aware of any.

@Kalessin to add, Kaiten (new publisher) currently sells DRM-free manga from Overlap and Futabasha so those should be fine. Kodansha occasionally has some Humble Bundles (all DRM-free) so perhaps they may fine with it as well.

@Serah said in Smartphone: have we ever had an illustration of guildmaster Relisha?:

Are there no fan communities of light novels like with manga - where you might find fanarts about that character?

I'd check reddit, or the wikia.com or fandom.com community site for smartphone. I'm sure they would exist.

@LegitPancake I think he wants to know the chapters titles? The book's table of contents basically.

Kindle e-Ink:

Download book from JNC. Run Calibre. Click add book to library. Attach USB cable between PC and Kindle. Click send to device. Device > eject. Done!

Kindle to Fire android tablet:

Uhhh ... sorry. Calibre can convert to kindle format if you want to use the Kindle app instead of an EPUB reader app, but I've never done this. The EPUB apps I checked in the Kindle app store mostly had negative reviews, this is where not having the Google Play store hurts.

You can also use Calibre's built-in ebook reader to read it on the PC.
