Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de / When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace [Licensed by J-Novel Club]

I loved this anime, go figure how devastated I was when I found out no one was translating the novels, not even a fan-translation. Specially with that hint at a grand plot behind the scenes. And yes, that scene by Hayamin is probably the most memorable piece of voice acting of recent times.

@terrence said in Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de / When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace:
The anime for this one surprisingly features one of the best single scene voice acting performances for an actress. You know the scene if you watched the show.
Crunchyroll just shared that scene on FB so I'm sold just from that.
-
Oh yes the series where the main character has a garbage power and his friends have epic powers.
-
Really want this one. Any idea if j novel will pick it up?
-
why no one licensed this yet :'(
-
Or maybe you remember it for the absolutely epic anti-chuuni rant by Saori Hayami's character halfway through the show, quite possibly the single best segment of voice acting in all of anime history.
Stumbled across that scene on YouTube, then came here specifically to give it an upvote. :'>

Is there any chance you can pick this one up?
The op summed up my thoughts perfectly! Also, it has great comedy, the characters interactions are really fun to watch and it should be one of the easier light novels to translate. Its really a shame that it never got neither a fan translation or an official one! Can you please consider picking it up? -
@hussam_z IT still hurts me that no one has picked this one up, just like GAMERS!

@paulnamida yeah I was honestly surprised! Hopefully, we get a translation someday

It's less about being niche or not having a following and more that series like this just check the wrong boxes. It had an old anime but never got much attention after that. For example, look at other similar series that JNC has already published (had an old anime):
- Demon King Daimao
- Outbreak Company
- Infinite Stratos
- Kokoro Connect
- Invaders of the Rokujouma
- Full Metal Panic
Now, not all of these are flops exactly, but neither are they blowing up the world in sales or popularity. So you can understand that between a series that pretty much only has a minor nostalgia draw versus a newer series that's still trending in Japan/among fan circles and could get an anime sometime in the future, or one that just started that can catch up to the newest releases pretty quickly, it's hard to justify spending localization money on it when the ROI historically hasn't been great for series with similar circumstances.
-
This one also has going for it that it's by an author JNC has licensed before (Slightly Older GF author iirc). Maybe they can become like Ichiro Sakaki if their newer stuff sells, and we get some of their back catalog. Not holding my breath though (and honestly, rather their newer stuff first before this at this point).
