      A scanlation of the manga is available. The artwork is very well done as is the translation. Just a thought.

          +1 This should've been picked up a long time ago. It has the highest rating in NU with most votes together with almost 25k readers.

            @ramrams Well no English publisher has ever gotten a title from this JP label, and only Seven Seas has ever licensed from the parent company Hifumi Shobo (SCP Foundation). Maybe no one has made contact with the publisher or the JP publisher is asking for too much? There are many explanations.

              main reason I would assume no one has picked it up yet is the author has been very slow at releasing new volumes of the actual LN. Its only on volume 5? Author's main focus seems to be the web novel currently. He seems to release 1 volume of the LN a year. Exception being 2018.

                The web novel is really good. Upvote for the light novel!

                  I've read the web novel fan translation quite some time ago and really liked it. I would love to see this novel getting licensed!

                      With new licenses in the air I thought I'd give a bump to some of the suggestion topics. This is one that I'd like to see that I think would fit in with JNC's LNs while still having it's own twist.

                      Besides the JP publisher only having one work licensed for English (by Seven Seas), I wonder if having an actually good web novel translation hurts this one's chances of getting licensed, but one can still hope.

                        Not gonna lie, I hopped on here in hopes that it'd be in the process of getting published here, so you know my vote.

                          Thought I'd give this topic a bump since it's been a while and I really would like to see it get picked up if possible. Looks like it's up to volume 7 in the Japanese.

                            I also vote for this. Reading the fan translations but would prefer to support the author with an official release

                              I'd be down for this one as well.

                                I would also love to see an official release of this one. I'm up to date on the WN translation but I both want to support the author and want to see the series on my bookshelf

                                  Seemingly licensed by One Peace Books, though there's no press release for it yet.

                                      @saffire on the one peace homepage you can look on the fall catalogue (https://www.onepeacebooks.com/OPB_FALL_2022_CATALOG.pdf)

                                      Not only did they post Death Mage, but also The Wrong Way To Use Healing Magic, which is also nice.

                                        Unfortunately, it seems to be only the manga for Death Mage¨
                                        My bad, if the artist on the amazon page is Ban!, then it's the light novel. However the pdf above only lists the manga. One of the two is wrong, unless One Peace has both versions?...

                                          The PDF says LIGHT NOVEL under the cover though? And both LIGHT NOVEL and MANGA for Wrong Healing Magic.

                                            Didn't notice that. Looked at the description which says;

                                            Paperback | 400 pages | $14.95 | 5X7 in. | Manga
