The anime for this was very charming and I want to read the novels.

I loved the anime, it would be a crime not to second this.

Aumi

This book has been on my to-read list for some time!
It would be great if j novel club could publish this.

Pity I can only upvote once. If only upvotes were like book credits where I could buy 😝

Bump i guess

Still probably the series with an existing anime that I'd love to see get picked up the most...

Would love for this to be a "rescue".

When Sam first hinted that he had rescued a Tokyopop license, I had hoped it was Gosick. Turns out it was Credt of the Stars, which I had never even heard of, but I’m still holding onto my hopes for this one.

I love the Gosick anime! And after reading Red Girls, I'd love to see more of Sakuraba's work made available in English. Perhaps her Tezuka spinoff. ;)

Another former Tokyopop license that is worthy of a rescue! Thanks for picking up other titles from that group, I look forward to more!

treiz

please rescue, I'll buy it.

Still hoping for both it and the sequel myself.

This series is lovely. All LNs in Japan today is either ecchi highschool romcom or isekai harem fantasy.

Initial English License by TokyoPop; 2 volumes published, license presumed lapsed.
TokyoPop's German edition appear to have progressed much further; they continued in operation during the period where TokyoPop had no English language presence.

One of my favorites!
