@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.

Also be aware all of these volume have been printed, and ebooks go through an additional QA process for printing that doesn’t always make its way back to the ebooks.

@Clarabelle I can not recall any info on that, but it is completely translated and published, so not sure if they will update that or not...

I hope there will be a novel from my wishlist, even if the chance is probably low.

@SomeOldGuy Either that or science class lied to us.

@legitpancake Due to the amount of work that goes into physical prints, especially when combining 3 full books into 1, you shouldn't expect more than 1 hardcover collection per series per year. Especially when book 6 isn't even released digitally yet.

@malloc

It is first come first served, the lines to line up for panels are actually outside the convention center (for general attendees, ADA & Premier pass holders wait inside)

Every panel room has its own dedicated color, and you line up outside for that panel on the colored tape for that panel room, for popular panels people start waiting several hours before the panel begins to make sure they get a spot, for a panel like J-Novel Club you can probably arrive 15 minutes before hand and you should be more then safe.

@rahul-balaggan Phew, that‘s a relief.

@paul-nebeling That, or the new editor for Realist needs more time to catch up on the series. I think this is more likely than Overlap being slow with paperwork, considering they published vol.11 back in October.

With the 9th volume to be released on Sunday I somewhat feel sorry for how the story and series itself feels to got stretched so much. And the non-linear publications of side stories, prequels, epilogue after the 5th volume somewhat soured my overall experience.

I preordered the upcoming volume anyroads, but I cannot wonder if there is hope for the series to get any better. I personally wish it would have properly ended by now, with spin-offs / bonus volumes concluding the story or even laying ground for a sequel series as seen with Wolf & Spice.
