      Recently re-read all the fan-scanlated chapters of the manga adaptation. Really want this licensed still.

                Definitely worth an up-vote, while I know next to nothing about the series it's been on my manga to read list forever. It'd be cool if it was licensed.

                  It can be interesting, more than the blurb the other comment make it appealing, I just have a question for those who have read it, how is the gender bender thing treated ? Is it like in "So I'm a spider were" were it deeply influence the character or just a way to have both a loli MC and yuri ?

                  Do you like death, war and misery ?
                  Do you like badass op loli who let nobody got in their way ?
                  Do you like vengeance story?
                  If so then then vote for The girl who ate a death god

                        I've read the 1st volume that was translated by someone like 3 years ago, but beyond that I don't know how the series goes. However, from what I did glean from the series in comparison to the manga that is currently running as well it has a ton more information. Not like with most series where it leaves out some details to make it more digestible in a single chapter read, the manga literally leaves out scenes that give context to how a follow scene is occuring so its like you are watching a slide show summary of the series lol. Would definitely appreciate a official translation.

                          They should start translating this light novel. There are already 10 volumes released in Japan. That means it is popular. I hope there is an anime.

                            You should start requesting it on Seven Seas' survey, since they just picked up TSKD meaning they now have a relationship with Micro Magazine.

                            Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

                              It’s an amazing series, and I would love to see an English release (though especially print) and an anime.

                                  The publisher recently did an overhaul/update to their "special site" for the series so I think an anime announcement might be incoming. They also released a commercial for the LN last month. Seems like Micro Magazine is really pushing the series hard lately.

                                    @Aruseus493 Hope this one gets picked up by someone for English localization at that time too. However, I don't think J-Novel has gotten any micro-mag titles yet. If I remember correctly they were turned down for Sword-Dad because it was digital only to start out and Micromagazine wasn't interested in digital only. Same here would likely happen since from what we know it would have to sell well to guarantee a printed version :(

                                        Upvoting. This novel is really fun to read. I totally love the whole concept with the VRMMORPG, it's totally interesting (gaming really is the best, next to reading books of course)!

                                          Just thought I'd share this here in case someone would be interested: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/playinggrounded/alluring-anime-and-fantasy-art-puzzles/description.

                                          If you like the artist of this series, Fuzichoco, Playing Grounded Puzzles is offering two puzzles with her art on them you can buy during their Kickstarter until May 30; the one for this Kickstarter is an original work Fuzichoco did for them. The goal has already been met btw but there is a stretch goal. I've backed three of her puzzles in a previous Kickstarter and they're all great; they decorate my bedroom. There's other puzzles you can buy by other artists too.

                                            Since J-Novel Club also publishes their light novels in printed form by now (correct me, if I’m wrong), won’t there be a higher chance for a licensing relationship with Micro Magazine? I would absolutely love to get the premium ebook version of this novel!!!
