Does anyone know when Vol 7 begin?

https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/3478/future-volume-release-schedule

Based on when volume 7 released in Japan it could begin pre-pubbing just about any time now, but it's always anyone's guess.

Yeah, I try to never worry about a release for caught up series until 6 month have gone by, this case that is the end of May. J-Novel often gets them on the calendar sooner. Though I still gets antsy sometimes.

@myskaros oh.. thats Unfortunate.. shouldve seen this earlier

Hello,

At this point I will just nudge us back on topic.

Beyond that, yes. We are aware of user feedback for submitting corrections. J-Novel Club being an incredibly small team means resources must be always be used wisely. A brand new reporting system would be a majorly time sink.

And with that let’s spite back on topic.

Thank you

I had to drop this. The author’s style of writing is hollow and without much direction. There’s little emotional substance and a lot of words spent for the sake of words. A whole volume and whatever has happened could have been condensed into 3 chapters. I’m surprised this got published in the first place.

@kawabata268 I have to agree with @Geezer-Weasalopes on your translation here, and this is coming from someone who started this series with the web novel raws (not MTL). This series in particular would be incredibly easy to get wrong, and you've nailed the characters here, Yuki in particular. Massive props for making this my preferred version.

Radine is certainly a much better character than Lupis, having her around could be nice. I'm curious to see how Ryoma will react to the political marriage plan...I'm expecting him to refuse, but should he decide it's more convenient to accept, that could start a chain reaction among all his female retainers for a spot as concubine (I don't remember if there is polygamy in the setting), starting with the twins.
After like 20 volumes I'm tired of Lupis, and I'm not enthusiast that we still have to deal with her. I'm not sure what more she could bring to the story, especially since as others already mentioned, this arc was intended to be the prolonged to the real war between Ryoma and Shardina.
As usual, this volume felt as it could be condensed in a couple of chapters without any real loss in terms of content. From this point of view, Wortenia never disappoints (?).

@Harshal-Trighovan-mct6e6w most likely not, no. It's been a significant period of time since the last volume was released in Japan, so most people consider it to be axed.

Currently on Catch-up, will there be a sequel?
Well, I read it in a few hours and liked the story, streamlined as it is. Would make a good romantic comedy movie, I think. Much better than the fantasy stuff on Prime these days for which they spent so much money, they had to raise the price.
I especially enjoyed that the heroine is selfish enough to push things forward. Go, girls, go!

The ending is good enough without totally blocking a sequel. Still, there is no need at all, the story seems whole as it is. That‘s nice, as most of the stories on J-Novels and other portals are endlessly meandering. 🥱

Yes, I prefer reading this series in the ebooks rather than the updates each week. I think it is a better experience.

@Windsagio
It does seem awful convenient that his wife came down with a mysterious ailment that keeps her effectively catatonic and the Church of the Holy Spirit could convince him they could heal her...for a price.
And he's willing to die in the process of paying it.

Bets they caused it? Bets they don't bother with a cure if he's already dead?

I'm not in the habit of taking suckers' bets unless I'm on the winning side. That being said...

these Apostles are getting more and more tiresome. Their devotion to the Ain't is growing equally tiresome. Methinks they need a stiletto shoved through her spinal cord — but not through their trachea, they still need to be able to ask "why" in the few seconds of consciousness before they collapse.

And this "Io" is hardly any better. Methinks he needs to meet the Duchess Emerita and get a stern talking-to... as does her former ally, Crescent "I'll Become A Vampire And Side With My Master's Greatest Enemy" Moon.

I think I will go mad if i read i am just an old man one more time

So there's a few possibilities.
... snip ...
3. Everyone in the story is an alien. ...

My pet theory is that Allen is an "Alien", and he has some bizarre auto-charm field he isn't aware of.

I'll go along with his not being Human.
Or no more 'human' than the Personages of Mass Destruction he's tutoring.
An orphan of unknown parentage; what is his birth family background anyway?!

He's the Dragon Reborn. Works on many levels both literal and figurative. Not human(dragon!!!). World Savior. Master of magic. Someone important in a previous life(maybe) and possibly more. Heck, even the harem with a clear girlfriend(;Min/Lydia best girls).

One thing I like about this series is that reading it gives me similar vibes to Misfit of demon king academy. It's not as good as the latter, but still makes for a nice read. I hope it will reach a proper ending and it won't be abandoned by the author.

@Lex said in The Misfit of Demon King Academy Vol. 6 Discussion!:

Arcana was actually the Goddess of Absurdity, and her being Anos' little sister was not her past but her wish, that now has been granted. That still leaves Militia's and Abernyu's role unclear...material for the next volume, I guess.

The Goddess of Absurdity combines creation and destruction, and Arcana still has lost her memory at least once.

I still think that Sasha and Misha are also parts of the Goddesses, a side effect of the massive number of sheningans that got said goddesses freed.

(Note it's still left implied that Anos didn't really beat Abernyu but rather convinced her)

Some thoughts I had on reading this volume:

I guess Shuugo was not cute enough to put on the cover? Even though the synopsis seems to feature both him and Yanagi?

The author really went all in on the HH names for the organisation, Hearts.

Toki Shuugo’s chapter
- Was he really compared to a mercenary? His attitude seems more like that of a soldier, particularly one of the low-ranking ones. At least, that’s what the description made me think of. A mercenary would have more initiative in my opinion. After all, a mercenary fights for his own benefit and profit.
- Reading further along in the novel, I can see the mercenary analogy but I'll leave the thought here to generate discussion (or not?).

Happa’s power: how far can she exhale? Or is it that as long as the air went through her lungs, she can control it no matter how far away from her it is? Does rain mess with her powers because she can no longer see her ‘breath stream’?
