Coming into this rather late in the game, but this is the proper topic for Volume One burbling...

"That wand is trash" clench snap
"Wah!"
rumble rumble rumble mutiny mutiny mutiny (points for recognizing the reference!)
"Oops, it seems to have broken.
"How sad.
Rumble!
"Here, have this spare wand I just happen to be carrying around."
Knowledgeable folk look at the wand, look at the individuals involved, look at the wand, go WTF?! 'cause it ain't a wand she'd use but is perfect for the one she's handing it to.

The commentators go wild.

There were so many novels that sounded interesting when this one started posting that it got lost in the shuffle, despite sounding like it might be fun.

Might? Might?!
It's a hoot.

@georgemto I don't mind that they like her, it makes sense. Where my authorial bells start ringing is the fact that it is constantly repeated, chapter after chapter.

Volume 5 (Premium Edition): A Bonus Short Story Hatori’s Wish

@harmlessdave said in Updates Novels/Manga:

Premium is a good deal for me just from the 1 book credit + $6 per book cost, but I read many different series.

Yep, 100% correct.

it's worth it if you have at least 5+ ongoing series you are reading from JNC. Otherwise your just shooting yourself in the foot. Series that are caught up to JP releases well have a slower time getting released compared to the ones that have 10 volumes already out. As for those you have to wait for the author to release it in Japan.

When I try to import v8 to Calibre, it tells me:

✓ Can Someone Please Explain What's Going On?! Volume 7 by Tsuredurebana [EPUB] Already in calibre: Can Someone Please Explain What's Going On?! Volume 7 by Tsuredurebana

Can the metadata be corrected to say v8, please?

Volume 12 (Premium Edition ): High Resolution Color Inserts

@weasalopes Sounds not entirely unlike how Jim Butcher started the Codex Alera series - on a bet that he couldn't write a good story on top of a mashup of two "lame" ideas: Pokemon and the Lost Roman Legion.

@melicans said in Black Summoner Vol. 7 Discussion:

Just wanna say, I really enjoyed the crossover with Black Iron Magician in the last short story. Brilliant.

Thank you for saying that, as while I could tell it was a crossover, I had no clue what it was a crossover with.
Now I've something to work with.

Again, thank you!

No problem. It was confusing me at first (I thought somehow it was their doubles) until I saw the name Haru and remembered from the afterword that he mentioned Black Iron Magician (also a good series that would be great to see licensed hint hint). It's rare for me to actually pick up on things like that so I was quite proud of myself!

@albertojose1977 According to Bookwalker JP, the author is not attributed to any other works.
They do have a couple other web novels on Syosetu, but none have been updated in the last 2-3 years.

I know, but for the sake of convenience, I will continue to refer to it as a short story, thank you.

Volume 1 Part 7 53% of the way in, Uruchi is referred to as "gluten-free" rice, the proper term is "non-glutinous" the former means "without the protein gluten" the latter means "not sticky"

Oh my.

site demands longer comment to post, but really, what more is there to say concerning the bonus stories?
