              Oh, a retranslation? I've read the original translation in English years back.

              It references classic mysteries, specifically Agatha Christie, the story very similar to "And then There Were None". It's not really a shocking mystery, just solidly put together.

                            They removed the Laika part in the title, I wonder why? Thought we can probably guess the reason.

                            The anime has been released in English countries by Funimation with that title for over a month now. https://www.funimation.com/shows/irina-the-vampire-cosmonaut/

                              No idea why Yen reverted the title to romaji...

                                And yet the manga was just licensed by Comikey as Rust Eater Bisco…
                                I watch a lot of anime and manga/LN, but I’m pretty sure “Sabikui” is not a well-known Japanese word in the English community. So in my opinion the original fully English title was better (maybe the JP publisher insisted or something).

                                            It's nothing new, really. CIW has licensed a bunch of webnovels already.

                                            The authors do have one published work each though.
