@paul-nebeling Crunchyroll usually records at Bang Zoom, which is one of the best studios, imo. I think it’s in good hands. Of course names will probably be pronounced differently, like “Tuuri.”

Forgot to mention that around the time anime came out, TO Books made this free Bookworm Magazine as promotional material including anime information, sample chapter from manga and LN, bunch of promotional information and gave out for free at book stores. It became available in Kindle store too and you can download free outside of Japan too.
本好きの下剋上MAGAZINE (Japanese Edition)
You may not be able to read it, but hey, its free.

@hiroto Welp, I'm definitely grabbing that. Thanks.

maybe a translation (minus the sample chapters- which would be redundant) as premium content (premium edition of LN/ebook added content) would be cool?
-
It appears there is some sort of... collaboration? Between Bookworm and Orphen anime? Don't know how that would work, or what would come out of this.

@legitpancake It's apparently a commercial. Crunchyroll has a short writeup on it.

Thanks for the tip.
I'm in the UK it says it is not available. I have to use https://www.amazon.co.uk/本好きの下剋上MAGAZINE-Japanese-香月美夜-ebook/dp/B07YZ6GSVK for it to work.

@shiny Odd, it was available for me in Spain. I can't remember if I have my location faked in Amazon.com, though.
-
It is locally available too.
TO Books is a rare Japanese publisher who distribute their e-books worldwide.
I didn't know people here are so distributed.

Collaboration in Manga is pretty common. Two manga artists gets together and write a piece mixing characters from two totally different manga, but I don't know if it has been done for anime before. I couldn't find one with a quick search.
For manga, usually it is just an one off thing, so I assume they'll come up with the single episode merging two stories and characters.
-
@hiroto Anime collabs are also common enough. Off the top of my head I can't really think of any recent ones, but one that does come to mind is an official uniform swap picture between Kiniro Mosaic and Yuyushiki with the anime designs.
-
Well, looks like episode 10 of the anime ended at the exact same point as volume 2 of the light novel. Which would be expected since if the producers ignored that cliffhanger potential, they would have been criminally negligent. In any case, a very enjoyable episode.
-
Crunchyroll also released the first episode with an English dub! I just watched it and thought it was very good.
-
OMG, this is so cute!
It is the CM for the new Orphan anime... introduced by Myne!
-
Came across this lengthy video review of the anime, by an youtuber with 924k subscriber. Hopefully this will translate to some book sales.
-
@hiroto Considering that the first three volumes of Bookworm made up the Bookwalker weekly top 3 last week, I'd say it's working.
-
Anyone else notice that Benno is using the shampoo now?
-
2nd season confirmed. 2020 SPRING!

Can’t wait! We’ll probably have to assume they’ll try to cram all of part 2 into this second cour, which is a shame, but I trust them after how they handled this first season.
Now we’ll just have to see if @Quof will be able to finish part 2 volume 4 before the anime ends in June :)
