@myskaros Very true, but the initial shock... :-O

Now that I'm thinking about it, it's a new credit card cycle. Time to but the next title on my list.

I’m not going to stop people from grabbing the premium editions that way if they want to. It’s not like we don’t have the rights to it anymore. Consider it officially unlisted.

@sam-pinansky said in J-Novel Club Adds An Archdemon’s Dilemma: How to Love Your Slave Elf Bride Light Novels:

The confusion between arch demon and actual demons is purposeful and part of the book and sort of a spoiler so please keep reading.

So please keep releasing! 😁
(Seriously, I'm really looking forward to Tuesdays now with these two new releases!)

@aruseus493 said in In Regards To A Realist Hero Vol 4 Illustration:

@jeremytmh Should definitely request from Sam since they gotta edit the images to create English versions anyways.

Oh I know, sometimes they or actually they should be getting the clean images. usually the text etx everything was a separate layer. That's how its usually like in the industry. I've worked a little in something related before. That's why I was asking if that original could be provided in some form or whether there would be contractual issues doing so.

@terrence said in I'm back to bathing in novels now! What did I miss?:

New Life + volume 1 (interesting protagonist)

Whelp. Maybe avoid that one for now OP until we find out if it's definitely canned because of the author's perceived racism or going to go through edits and come back. =[

@jampodevral Like I said, opinions vary. Some people are fine using both ?! and !?, like with the former being more of a question and the later being more shock and confusion.
So I wouldn't call a book that uses both "poorly edited".

Generally I'd just like some consistency in their usage is all within a particular series.

I will do that then, thanks.

Damn I haven’t used my credits in a while. Last I did I got Mixed bathing volumes.

Isekai is a setup. In many series, there is nothing isekai about it after the first few chapters. In a series like New Life +, it would only be a trivial difference if you called it "Amnesiac blessed by God" instead of an isekai.

As such, I don't believe it's possible to get tired of isekai... I think people who say they are tired of isekai are actually tired of the type of story that is most common among isekai: fantasy worlds with RPG elements. There are lots of series that are fantasy worlds with RPG elements (even with floating menus!) that aren't isekais, though.

Yea right now the features and functions in an account is really limited. Its fine when your collection here is small still but I am expecting my ebook collection to explode over the year soon and i predict its going to be messy...

Currently I just download the epub and sort them manually on my devices but it would be great to be able to have some organizing in my Library under my account here as well soon.

Another feature that would save lots of time once there is more series would be allowing us members to bookmark followed series into our account and just hop to them direct simply via the account itself. For now I just bookmark em on my browser but yea I'd have preferred built-in to the account here.

I kept advertising J Novel on the mangas that have their LN translated and ran across spookie which lead to him learning about the premium bonus.
Hopefully he decides to continue the series he loves since the bonuses aren't required to enjoy the stories to the fullest.
I spend hundreds on auctions every other month trying to get limited edition things in Japan and it's a pain but what can you do when you love your hobby so much?

@hyferzftw There are only two people in chargeof releases and sometimes they need like a day off ;)

@oristo42 if I had to venture a guess, I would say that they are waiting for approval of the English cover.

Damn I'd love a Tio figure...

Here's hoping the anime dos ok to inspire one...

@gunsablazing

The API seems to have gone down, and any functionality related with it.
Did it get overloaded by the ebooks being published today or just a regular server crash?

As the previous guy said, part 1 is a "preview" of the novel as a whole. As the final epub version of a volume is released, the prepubs eventually expire and are not available for reading anymore, with only part 1 being available to "preview" the novel.

Thank you!

@Paul-Nebeling I don't know about other series, but some volumes of Faraway Paladin have Q & As from J-novel subscribers at the end of premium editions. There might be other ones that I don't work on that have also done this.

So yes, it's been considered, and yes, it's been done. :)
