@rickmenso can you provide some details like author, JP publisher, number of volumes, etc

communicating why you think this series should be licensed will help drum up support on the forum

Just checked on this and it looks like they're up to 11 volumes as of January 7th of 2026.

Looks like Vol. 4 was released in 2023. Seems like this author is either going slow or there's an issue with the publisher.

I read this a long time ago - really liked it even if it's about little girl mages and swordswomen - would definitely like to see this happen.

Giving this a boost as I want to see this translated plus someone else happen to try making a new post for it.

Another series Chronicles of an Aristocrat Reborn that has some similarities just had the first ln official released. That is a lot more light hearted though and much younger cast. So there is people seeing merit in this type of story who also might like more going on in it. It is kind of like if realist hero was a op adventurer.

@unowhoitis From what someone told me they aren't the ones making the audio books. Some other company buy the right to be able to make the audio books.

Small update:

Volume 2 has been cancelled. The series is being rebooted as Valkyrie Bullet (ヴァルキリー・バレット) and will be published by GC Novels (same publisher, but the books will be double the price).

The illustrator is also changing from itaco to Pinakes

I don’t know why

Volume 3 is scheduled for release on December 17, 2025

@Lily-Garden Yeah, this really sounds interesting.

Added:

I just read chapter 1 of the WN and laughed my head off. I really hope JNC considers publishing this.

As a quick update, the manga has been licensed by Tokyopop but the LN is still available. And an anime was just announced...

I enjoyed the light novel so I would love to read the manga
