Things could always have changed, but in a past Q&A Sam indicated that they’re not interested in licensing these anthologies. So don’t get your hopes up.

Personally I'd just recommend buying it somewhere else

@xdrfiredogx Haha indeed, it's the perfect descriptor for the likes of Epic Movie or Meet the Spartans.

To parody isekai you have to be an isekai of course so I can't guarantee it'll be for you. That's the beauty of the catchups of course though. I have several series I'm now purchasing premiums for that I wouldn't even have considered buying if they were from another publisher. I'd say the first 4 or 5 parts of volume 1 would give anyone a pretty clear idea whether it's to their tastes or not.

You've got about a week and a half to finish reading April's catchups! May catchups will be coming on Monday, May 2, around 10 AM PDT/1700 UTC!

Just managed to scrape in Economics of Prophecy before tomorrow’s turnover. I was intrigued by the concept but somewhat unimpressed with its execution.

I also got pretty bored of The Magic in This Other World after just two volumes, I rather quickly didn’t vibe with its pacing and hearing people’s comments on later volumes just killed my interest I guess lol.

At least Bookworm manga was there to appreciate <3

I am so freaking happy, I had been trying to read honzuki, and had to rush it since I just joined a few days ago. Love and hugs for you!!!

@Ingraman said in Ascendance of a Bookworm - anime discussion:

TO Books announced on Thursday that the new anime from Wit Studio of Miya Kazuki's Ascendance of a Bookworm (Honzuki no Gekokujō - Shisho ni Naru Tame niwa Shudan o Erandeiramasen) "biblia fantasy" light novel series, adapting Part 3: Adopted Daughter of an Archduke, will premiere in 2026. TO Books also revealed the new anime's television series format. Along with the announcement, the light novels' third volume of short story collection (featured in posted image below) will release on December 10.

Considering how many volumes part 3 has, hopefully the series format has a bunch more episodes. 8-)
