      Cover page for Memory Records Volume 9 is out!

      As for the plot...well...

      spoiler

      ...also, starting to wonder if we should start a "Days since Akashic Records is not licensed yet." counter/bot. .-.

        Semi-related update.

        The madlads of J-Novel Club got Taro Hituji's other series under their wing now! ;D

        Source

        Even if you don't follow this series, here is one anecdote.

        spoiler

        Here's hoping this kicks the door down to actually get Akashic Records rolling in J-Novel's hands. (☞゚ヮ゚)☞

        Oh right, also uh. Volume 20's draft is apparently done, according to the author.

        News of it should come up by the new year.

          Volume 20 release date confirmed for February 19th, 2022.

          alt text

          Interestingly, the time between the last main plot volume (Akashic Records) is about 8-months.

          ...the last time this happened, it was around the time an anime project was announced...NO.

          NO. DON'T GIVE US HOPE. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

          In addition, this is the first volume since V17 where it's not released alongside the author's other series, Magic Knight of the Old Ways, in Japan. (Officially licensed by J-Novel Club today, go check it out. (☞゚ヮ゚)☞)

                For a volume w/o the main cast on the cover, it's P4 on release week, but the numbers are lower than the previous volume.

                  I think it has a great potential. Seeing the characters developing and growing together just makes this Light Novel so damn good. I hope it gets a licenses because letting it die would be a big loose of a Story which is one of a kind and catches me everytime iI start reading it. I am just hoping I get to hear (read) glen "complaining" again.

                    Semi-related.

                    1, according to an inquiry DM, apparently the author's okay with fanmade names for the story arcs, long as it conveys the story well. :0

                    Man's contactable on Twitter, best not to bug them too much.

                    Also, there aren't that many arc names even in JP, so day at the improv it is.

                    2, if yall are interested in a series recap with minor novel related nods the anime/manga skipped over, there's folks giving that a whirl if you'd like a catchup series w/o having to go manga dumpster diving.

                      Seems like a site in Japan's tracking interest in certain LN/Manga series running around over there.

                      If played right, any series could get the right person's attention. ;D

                      Link

                      The site is called, Hyped apparently.

                      ...why are we posting it here? Cuz it only exists around the time V20 was released. D;

                          Bonus for Volume 21, unsure if this is the cover.

                            @akashicwiki That's the image of the B2 tapestry included in the store-exclusive(Gamers) limited edition, not the cover.

                                  I would definitely be in support of this becoming officially licenced by JNC, as I would love to read it.

                                    Volume 21's cover got an early 'leak'? Or...not? D;

                                    This the first volume since V13 that features this pair.

                                    Funny enough, when you add the numbers 2+1, you get 3. Which is also the same volume that features this character pair on the cover.

                                      It's official, V21's real. Fun fact. When you add the numbers 2 & 1 from 21, it's 3.

                                      The same volume that first featured this pair of characters. (☞゚ヮ゚)☞

                                          Ooh, Volume 21 is rated at 6,200 copies on, release week?

                                          ...that, can't be right. o.o

                                          But it is a surprising development.
