@rahul-balaggan Thanks for the image. Looks like I was right sadly :(

[Rahul Balaggan]

@terabyte Keep hope alive, at the very least the statement said suspended instead of cancelled

[Terabyte]

@rahul-balaggan True :)

[Bryan]

Sam please bring this series back if its possible to do so!

This whole situation has kinda pushed me all the way to seriously mad. Hobby Japan seriously dropped the ball when they started this series by not making MINE remove all the references to Nanking and having him remove those tweets. If the author has those opinions he can spout them at the bar with the other idiots in some seedy bar in Japan, not online.

When are people going to realize that there is no real anonimity online once the court of internet opinion turns against you?

[Terabyte]

@jampodevral from the bits I read it seems some references were removed, but in addition to the LN also the unedited WN was being published at the same time. Which is what caused the issue. I haven't really kept updated on this whole thing though.

Anyway they could have just stopped importing/publishing it there. I don't see why they must block it on a global level. Just like how Germany often bans/censors nazi games in their country. That's what I think at least.

Authors views aside, I really love the story. It'll be a shame if the translations are finished. :(

Will we be able to redownload the volumes if we lose our current copies with this series being suspended?

[Rahul Balaggan]

@thexblade yes the copies you paid for will remain within your library for download.

However after July 1st the series will no longer be purchasable.

[thexblade]

@rahul-balaggan
Thanks cause I have all three volumes and my computer cashed about a week or two ago and I lost all my novels after reseting it and just want to make sure I can redownload if it happens again.

[Paul Nebeling]

@thexblade I've got about 50 LN and it doesn't even take up a full GB of storage. There's no DRM, so making a backup copy isn't a problem. I personally keep two copies on separate devices. If I wanted to go full IT compliant, I'd toss a third copy onto the cloud.

[Aruseus493]

So it's still a wait and see statement. Better than an outright cancellation. At least I can read volume 3 now. Does it come with the Premium Bonuses?

[Rahul Balaggan]

@aruseus493 It will come with Text-less illustrations of the first 3 volume covers

[Leondarkfury]

When will the book come up on Amazon?

[Rahul Balaggan]

@leondarkfury The files have already been given to amazon they are in currently being processed.

Could be tomorrow could be Monday

[Aruseus493]

@rahul-balaggan So volume 3 didn't come with any bonus stories in Japan, or is it cause there wasn't enough time?

[Guspaz]

IIRC Sam said something about it not being a particularly good time to ask HJ about getting short stories for the series.

[Bryan]

If the series ever continues I hope he updates it to add the short stories back in
