sounds like could be fun also in a genre different than anything else JNC seems to currently have in the lineup also Kiyotaka Haimura also compete w/ 9 volumes (some meat to it) * anyone know if "complete" means a series with an "ending" or one that just has no more to be published ?

A quick bump since I just create a topic for the parent story The girl who bore the flame ring, and update that topic.

Look cool, i tend too find romcom boring but this one look like it wont stagnate until the last vol where everything is resolve in one go. And an old man like waifu sound fun.

Second volume of the manga releases July 12th. Cover: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D9lW4krU8AMj_O_?format=jpg&name=large This has also sold over 100,000 copies (don't know if they're referring to the whole series, all 3 LN included, or just the manga adaptation). https://mobile.twitter.com/yoshyaa/status/1142039780068229121

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.

Spotlight time! A friendly bump to an older post that hasn't had any recent conversation and is lower on votes in order to draw attention to it.

The anime is really good but even thou it was mostly in vampires perspective it did nothing but make them more detestable.

Damn how did i miss that suggestion, it look great. Well at least if they got the science right, otherwised it can quickly become very cringy.

I think we’re getting too far into the weeds about the topic. I don’t know about the economics of translation/ publication of the entire series. I would like to see it in print. I would like to encourage publishers to take on longer series and I am a fan of Zero. Heck I’d be super happy if JNC published (only) the memorial volume or an omnibus of the side stories or whatever.

@aruseus493 So do I. I've asked for it on Seven Seas' survey multiple times too. We have the anime, we have the manga but not the light novel. Why? I guess the length of the series is against it and maybe the age of the anime now? Because it's not an isekai? It has the obligatory harem and beautiful girls on the covers that would help sell it too.

You had me already by the author. I LOVE both Erin and Moribito, so upvote

Sounds interesting. Upvote

@legitpancake From the tiny bit I’ve been able to find out about what happens later in the series I definitely hope it gets licensed. I really enjoyed the anime. Since it’s a shorter series (only 11 volumes total) hopefully J-Novel or someone can pick it up for us.

@weasalopes I've read a bit further for when they help the next persona & then the drama after that, and yeah I think there's more depth there than there first appears to be. I'll be vague here to avoid spoilers, but I'm spoiler tagging my thoughts anyway.... spoiler

Yeah, it looks like this series is complete at volume 12. I just found out recently. (LNDB still lists it wrongly as ongoing though.) EDIT 1: I've updated the first post with some more relevant information. EDIT 2: Aru updated LNDB, it's listed as complete now :)

The full fan-translation is too famous, good and old for the digital release to have much sense tbh. Though you never know, priorly translated famous VNs usually sell much better than their counterparts without a fantl.
