Hyouka/Koten-bu Series
-
No hope for that one :(
Now I'll have to go on some epic quest to find those mythical fan translations. -
I can understand not licensing this since the fan-translations, but also because of the amount of time between each volume. There's only been like 2 volumes since the anime ended and I constantly worry if the author is ever going to write more.
-
Here's the CuriousCat link for those interested:
-
Sad stuff... I want these.
-
I want more hyouka too haha
-
@legitpancake it could be shipped in if you order online but the fees for overseas shipping is really high you will have to pay like 30 to 60 if I remember for shipping fees alone
-
Spotlight time! A friendly bump to an older post that hasn't had any recent conversation in order to draw attention to it.
-
Anyone know if the author has written any more for the series since the last volume which was mostly just a collection of previously published short-stories from the series?
-
nope, but he is writing story for his other series(manga) The Broken Keel

@aruseus493
Hyouka (first book) got Audiobook last month (which means it's returning)when I checked the author scheduled work just now, he only has 2 books scheduled, Hyouka 12 (manga) this month, and a bunko ver, of "いまさら翼といわれても" next month
So, yeah, a new volume might be coming
-
Just replying to say that I've wanted this LN to be translated for years, and it is, without a doubt, the LN that I want translated the most. What I wouldn't give to own (and read) an official English paperback or, better yet, hardcover version of the Koten-bu series.

@bloodygaikotsu Sorry, it's been 2 years I know, but... Where did you buy those books?
-
@sevennations Japanese physical book? I found a listing over at CD Japan if you have access to buying stuff online.
-
Has the author shown any signs of writing the next volume for this yet?
-
@harunachiep Oh but see, the covers are something different. Hyouka and Credit Roll of The Fool, pink and blue covers, which I think are the Indonesian publications?
Physical Editions.
-
@sevennations I'm not sure what you mean by this unless you're saying there's an official Indonesian version available somewhere?
-
@harunachiep https://hyouka.fandom.com/wiki/Hyouka_(novel)
If you look at the different covers, that book in BloodyGaikotsu hand to the left is the Indonesian Edition and same to the picture. Except it's more pink for some reason? Maybe the lighting. -
I'd definitely read this series if you JNovel got it. I enjoyed the anime.

@SevenNations
Those ain't my hands but Indonesian official copies I pulled off reddit. -
