@doublemangekyo There is 9-chapter manga adaptation, it should be a good gauge but from what Frog-kun said it seems that the series might have ended too arbitrarily suggesting it might have been cancelled so it's mostly romcom shenanigans without the pay off from all the subplot and side character related foreshadowing. (That is why I was not sure if I should suggest it or not)

added the the LN to LNDB

@terrence (If someone can read the expression on volume 2, help me; I don't know what her glance nor her thought bubble are about, lol). "I need to study and act as proper prez but I am quite worried about the new bubbly better girl showing up!!!" lol

I've heard that the anime followed the manga fairly well, they probably missed some side stories due to time constraints, probably more in the www.working!! as it only had 1 season to cover 6 volumes while working!! got 3 seasons to cover 13.

I remember reading the manga for this series. It was pretty neat. I'd definitely read the novel version to see if there were any differences.

@terrence said in Hibana (火花, Spark): The ending to PunPun was actually pretty good in terms of not explicitly stating what you're supposed to get out of it (or maybe I missed it). Actually, all Asano Inio works end this way, it's an end muddled with both hope to move forward and pessimism of the atmosphere. I kinda feel like stories, usually, end with what he uses for the chapter before last.

This sounds dumb as hell and like a real riot. So, right up my alley. spoiler

Yep, seems interesting indeed.

The anime was fantastic, probably the best comedy I've seen, but 13 vol seem a little too long for that kind of serie. Nonetheless, i would love too try the LN.

Hyped for the OVA so bumping this thread. Would be an insta buy for me as I love this series. Remember guys, anime is trash and so am I!

I still have hope for this one. Maybe J-novel Club will answer my prayers.

Volume 10 is coming out next week on Friday. I've updated the volumes count in the first post and here's a little bump, too 😉

I thought that was this one: The Evil Organization’s Recruitment Ad https://bookwalker.jp/dec7877c01-29ee-4d3a-8ad8-469952c2b3c8/?acode=WpfPW3yk We could definitely use some evil organizations either way. =P

Manga is approaching the End of 1st Vol. of LN nad this series does have little of No Game No Life Feel but it really feels Like Kakegurui which is BIG BONUS for ME!!

...seriously?

Volume 3 be will out this month and it's mentioned there are exclusive bonus chapters for physical volume at particular store as well. This is why I wanted J-novel to license this so bad to get them exclusive chapters...
