Regarding missing/modified titles from Amazon
-
Once again, please keep the discussion here to the missing titles on Amazon. It's fine to deviate slightly, but if you want to start a completely separate discussion, make a new topic.

I stand corrected! I didint think amazon would convert the titles themselves. I thought they would require publishers to do that on there end and any drm would just get added on at time of sale. Still i stand by my fealings that it would be a good move for JNC to offer a way for people to buy the premium ebooks with out the need for 3rd party aplications. This issue with amazon is not going away and its only going to get worse. Look at the public reaction to cuties and i can see even more pressure on retailers to remove or censor.

@saskir i my self am not interested in the premium content.
How A Realist Hero has a great collection of short stories that make the books better, that are only in the premium epubs . That's because these short stories were special in-store bonus items in Japan not part of the normal light novel.
That's true of some other series too: https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/305/premium-e-book-bonus-contents-list/
Once you've installed the free Calibre app on your PC it really is easy to add epubs to a Kindle. Connect the Kindle with USB cable, download the book, run Calbre, browse to the book download to add it, click "Send to device", click eject device. done.
You can also download 5 books, add 5 books, click send to device once, all 5 get added.

@HarmlessDave i dont have a pc to download calibre to and its not about how easy it is to use. I just want to download my books directly to my kindle with out relying on a 3rd party programe. Worst case ill just have to view the removed content on JNC page they set up for us.(i havent said it yet but thank you for that) i hope down the road JNC makes it possible to buy the premium ebooks and link are device email to are accounts and just download that way. Still wouldint be as fast and conveniant as buying from the kindle store but it is what it is

Altina V1 and V3 seem to have been struck down now.

Are there any news, when missing volumes from Amazon will reappear?

LOL. My first thought when reading that was that it made it sound like they'd been defeated in battle. :)

Dungeon Busters was just now removed from Amazon Kindle and got the mail that my pre-order was of it cancelled.
-
Guess the volume cover must show too much cleavage for some people.
-
@jpwong ...and thigh perhaps.
-
@Lotteliese This was an error on our side. The preorder will be going back up at some point.
-
Amagi Brilliant Park v8 has been confirmed that it was blocked by Amazon.

C'mon, Amazon has eBooks with much more explicit book covers and yet they are super fine.

Magicmaster is now completely back up on amazon, but with erased reviews.
-
Seirei Gensouki is now back up on Amazon in full.
-
How not to Summon a Demon Lord recently came back in full on amazon.

I've been purposely readying volume 2 of Arifureta as slowly as humanly possible, but still no volume 3. Just poking for news. I'd just buy it DRM-free here if it was a little simpler, but i may need to anyways.
(off-topic warning!) Thankfully, 4, 5 and 6 are already there, but Amazon has royally messed up their storefront with regards to light novel vs. manga adaption. I literally spent an hour and a half with an amazon representative trying to explain what was wrong, and how to fix it. Didn't work...
-
I'd avoid the Kindle market for LNs from now on since they're removing them.
-
And now it seems Amazon has removed The Great Cleric preorder for being too similar to the manga, despite them putting (Light Novel) in the title.
