@BartzBB said in The Mentor in a Frontier City:

It was mentioned in Private Tutor's Volume 9 Afterword that this is a prequel to the series and is set in the same world.

Please license this next!

That's interesting. You would think they would license it in that case.

The manga now has an exclusive translation on Bookwalker Global, with volumes 1 & 2 available. Not sure who licensed it.

this story is really cute. would love to read this

@bskye7-0 said in Magic Maker: How to Create Magic in Another World:

@Eminent I agree. the anime has me hooked so far and I was disappointed to find there hasn't been a licensed English translation yet. I think I saw that Seven Seas picked up the manga but there are only 20 chapters or so... I want the LN ASAP (and I saw a few people say it has AoaB vibes so I'd definitely read just based on that)

Guess we'll find out on the 14th.

Volume 2 released on February 05, 2025

V12 Cover

@Torka I recommend the anime which is currently streaming on Crunchy Roll with 5 episodes to date.

@xstationo-0 Vivid Strike has been confirmed to be licensed by Discotek, this will be their last Lyrical Nanoha license for now.

@Ingraman It’s the true volume 1 cover. I just wanted to do the little suspense thing

@Torka said in Monster Farm Run by a Couple:

Author: Sanda Shiro (?)

It’s a long “o” so I would personally romanise as Sanda Shirou. Although the publisher of this specific book is using Nihon-Shiki, “Sanda Siro,” they themselves use Shirou on Kakuyomu: https://kakuyomu.jp/users/shirou_sanda

Note that this is in Japanese order (given name last), whereas you’ve given the illustrator’s name in western order (given name first).

VOLUME 5 COVER according to this volume synopsis this will be the final volume.

I discovered this series after reading the first volume of the manga version of The Oblivious Saint Can't Contain Her Power: Forget My Sister! Turns Out I Was the Real Saint All Along! , but after reading the LN version I do not know if this series from Volume 2 to 5 will be good (Volume 1 is available in Web Novel Format)

maid.
👍

Ends in volume 6

This series Manga was licensed on the chapter format.

I updated the Synopsis to show the Official English Version.

Unfortunately, they weren't the heroes that the king was looking for so they got booted out.

"These aren't the heroes you are looking for."

V8 Cover

Mobile Suit Gundam 0079 (1992-1995) by Kazuhisa Kondo. A later adaptation of the original series.

Viz Communications published this in four volumes, which I also just happen to have on the bookshelf.
William Flanagan was the translator.
December 2001-April 2002 publication dates for the first printings.

I should reread all of these sometime, to justify having retained them if naught else.

Japanese Wikipedia Gundam Article provides greater detail concerning the various works.

小説/富野由悠季 朝日ソノラマ【全3巻】/ 角川書店 1979年–1981年 is the work published by Ballantine/Del Rey I mentioned previously.

「機動戦士ガンダム0079」 近藤和久 メディアワークス【全12巻】 1992年-2005年 appears to be the work I mention earlier in this post; I haven't checked to see if Viz released the additional volumes beyond the four I currently own. Ah, Viz only released nine volumes; that's still five more than I currently own.
