Ah, whoops. I might have done the silver = blonde hair stand in thing, so I just lumped her in with the others. Still, all the Europeans in the series so far have really light hair colors. Interested to see the American of the group if they get one (they compared America to the Mafia in V1 iirc... So maybe we won't get a positive American IS user). xC

Be interesting to see if they diversify the crew with maybe some Latin American or African IS pilots later too.

@terabyte now that is good news. Thanks 😁

I don’t know how I would feel if it ever goes down that route

Part 8

??%: Ai's report, she gave her won. (I think "one" was intended, though as a suggestion, I would just go with "gave hers.") 23%: "Wah>!" (The ">" seemed out of place, though maybe I'm just not familiar with some use of it) 23%: R protected me this so-called L. (me from this) 35%: I's true Lea and Corona were older, but would never do something like this ("It's true". Also, I would suggest "but they would never".) 48%: watching run off, (her run) 81%: replied to my curtly (to me)

Part 2:
"gunmen straight out of a spaghetti western" - gunslinger/gunfighter thends to be a better TL for ガンマン
Part 9:
"There were glutenous people" - gluttonous

If this is still up, I think I'll read this one today if I can. Unfortunately, the other expiring titles I'm not caught up on (Magic Too Far Behind), I want to purchase to show support (SisKan), or I am trying to avoid touching until rereading (Dendro).

So this was the one left (otherwise, I'd be content to wait for a catch-up month). x)

Week-will wussy is right... those internal monologues of his... ugh

It is kinda silly, I think a drop box (since it only accepts 1 to 10) might be a better UI element there :P.

@trompi80 Every month, 2 series go on catch up, and members can read certain titles from the very beginning. For the month of July, Realist Hero and Grimgar, 2 of J-Novel’s top-selling and highest rated titles, can be read from the very beginning. I suggest checking out those while you have the chance.

@terrence you bringing that up made me picture a time skip where Theo is a retired old codger slurping an ale and patting Vint while his kids are running the place when Dale and Latina come to visit.

Expired on May 15.

So Haru has at least 3 girls who want him enough to want to claim him / claim him over other girls now. This guy is lucky.

Of course, he barely knows or cares for two of them, so.

Yume's solo action scene reminded me of Potato Girl in Titan getting a scene like that. I mean, she's not 100% comic relief, she had factored into battles, but still, no meows / Nyans in that serious scene iirc.

Shihoru's dark... what are its limitations? If the string she's holding on Dark is cut / let go, how long does it take to get him back out?

So, this goes offline in the early morning hours tomorrow, right? Hmm. I wonder if I can get through it before then...

I'm up through part 4 volume 1. I do like that they address my questions as they come up in this book (a skeleton has no muscles, so shouldn't his limb movements be bad? The answer was yes, very sluggish to start).

Edit: I'm on the last part.

Are you guys on the Lorraine Train or do you ship someone else?

@myskaros said in WTF kind of scam is this?:

I feel like the first question in the FAQ needs to be "Is this like Netflix or Crunchyroll but for light novels?!" with an emphatic "NO!"

I thought JNC was just that for a long time. Was quite disappointed to learn that it was otherwise, and further more disappointed to learn that from reddit rather than the official site. FAQ really needs that question imho.

I got my membership fully knowing how the site worked, so no regrets on that part, well worth it for me. But I can see where misunderstandings could occur where it shouldn't.

Well just finished reading this one... It's certainly not as wacky as the 1st book, and a lot more of a serious tone in the book, though there are some elements that still exist in the same format.

That isn't to say that it's worse or better, it's just different.

I still really enjoyed the story and I'm looking forward to new things in book 3! 😊

@terabyte Thanks for the link. What a mess. I think I can see where all sides of this mess are coming from and I have not had enough time to think it through. Unfortunately like most Americans I have only limited knowledge of the Sino Japanese war and Nanking both of which I have read of or seen mentioned but basically no information beyond the bare fact that both happened. Too bad something like this blowup had to happen I was enjoying the series and the characters up to this point Loli God was hilarious

Too bad, especially since the first two volumes didn't seem to me particularly controversial.

@darkrad Isn't she control AI No. 1? In one of the bonus stories (I think in vol 1) they mention that #1 wrote an article about the Dendro Diet where girls can eat all they want in Dendrogram and not gain wait, and that AI had the initial of "A".
