Would love to add that I would love to this licensed. Hope this gains more traction.

Can this still happen?

I would love, love, LOVE for this series to get licensed and translated! I borrowed the manga from my library last week, fell head over heels after Volume 1, immediately bought every available English volume for my e-collection, and then spent the weekend binge-watching the anime.

So imagine my excitement when I realized the anime covered material beyond Volume 11… only for Season 2 to end in the middle of a plot arc with no guarantee of a Season 3. 😭

Please, PLEASE license this series so we can finally find out what happens next! I am begging—my curiosity cannot survive this cliffhanger!

@Libri-Liberorum said in Ascendance of a Bookworm - anime discussion:

In Illgner, there is a young woman with orange hair who normally stands near gramps. If the grey-priest-romance sub-sub-plot doesn't get cut, I'm picking that she's the one, just because she is being subtly often present in not-quite-foreground.

That is what I am thinking also.

@Aruseus493 said in Record of Chrono’s War - Kuro no Senki:

I gave Poison King volume 1 a try this week. And considering that smut got licensed, I think it's totally fair to start pushing this again.

I agree - I've been absent from jnovel and LNs in general for a while, just came back and read all of Poison King.

@Torka said in Record of Chrono’s War - Kuro no Senki:

Seven Seas picked up the manga.

Just saw - which reminded me of this post.

*Also updated some info on original post.

@myskaros thanks for your response despite it being a weekend. I will wait for the dev team to respond.

Volume 9 will be released in November.

@myskaros said in The Ryuo's Work Is Never Done! Volumes 4-6 Discussion!:

For anyone who already bought these books on Bookwalker Global, your library will be updated with the new JNC version very soon!

Just noting that this is still in progress; unfortunately we have no specific ETA on when existing owners will get access to the JNC editions.
