Novel pick-up requests
-
I'd love to see official translations of:
Red Data Girl
Kurei-nai
The Yuuki Yuuna novels (Current ones are Washio Sumi and Nogi Wakaba) -
@Omoikane I'm glad someone remembers kure nai! I loved that anime.
-
@Sam-Pinansky Love that anime. That's why I so want to read the novels. See what more is there and what more happens after.
-
@Omoikane The anime's great, but I gather that the TV series differs from the novels considerably. I think they're more in line with the OVA episodes that came out later.
Still, I know I'd be interested in seeing them, as well as the author's other series, Denpa-teki na Kanojo. (Or rather, I already own both in Japanese, I just haven't gotten to reading them yet.) -
@Sean-McCann I had always thought the ova eps were stories from later novels after the novels that laid out the story in the anime.
-
@Omoikane They are, but there's a huge difference in tone and characterization between the TV series and the OVAs. Like, Lin is barely recognizable as the same character between the two.
-
@Sean-McCann I see. Then, now, all the more need to read them.
Thanks for the info. -
I am hoping we get at least one shoujo/josei romance LN by this time next year. Doesn't have to be shoujo/josei actually as long as it is a non-harem romance LN.
-
@Hakomari Are triangles ok? Still hoping for those White Album 2 novels since someone brought them up. =P
-
@Terrence Harem! Harem! Harem! Shinmai Maou no Testament, Highschool DxD, Masou Gakuen and Date a Live! :D
-
@sparhawk6 Noooo! (I just don't like that these stories end with either the obvious winner or no winners, and they string you along so much; I'll take a dramatic triangle over them). xD
@Student-no.0 said in Novel pick-up requests:
@Hakomari How about a shoujo/josei reverse-harem LN?
How about a Yuri or Yaoi LN? Fair and balanced representation. =D
-
Triangles are often drama-heavy like in the case of "White Album 2". So preferably no love triangles.
-
@Student-no.0
I am tired of reading harems honestly. Reverse or otherwise. Can't we have a decent monogamous relationship for once? You know the kind church approves(although yaoi would be okay as well. As long as Pope Francis approves of it) xD
-
@Hakomari That's why I like them. I need more drama in my life please. =P
-
@Hakomari Would a love triangle be okay? Still want those White Album 2 novels…
-
Aren't you the second guy asking that :confused: ?
-
@Hakomari Nah, that's my alt account and I double posted (I'm joking, I think the conversation moved too fast and he posted that before your response).
-
@Hakomari Sorry, that happens when you don't reload before posting, the forum unfortunately doesn't seem to notify when a new post has been inserted before posting.
Edit: And it happened right now again :-/.

@Hakomari Thanks for the recommendation, I haven't read it so far. Unfortunately, it is only available as a paper back so far and I'm rather averse to buying physical books in English. Hopefully, it will soon join their digital line-up, just like Spice&Wolf and now even SAO did.
