Premium E-Book Bonus Contents List!
-
Really nice. I have been thinking for a while that we needed a way to know the bonus content of the premium E-books.
Was even thinking, in making a suggestion for that. So this came in a great time :smile: -
@Aruseus493 TBD.
-
@Student-no.0 I think it means that originally in Japan these extras were exclusive to certain retailers.
Of course, we only get them from the Premium Editions offered by J-Novel Club.
-
It doesn't really make sense for the physical editions to have those bonus contents unless they were directly released by JNovel. Since wouldn't that mean even ebook release on Amazon would have them too? Just my thoughts on it. Of course if it does have it that would be cool too.
-
@Terrence That's right.
They're things like exclusives that were packed in if you bought the book from animate or gamers or one of the other major otaku retailers.
Sometimes they came on a special little book or a special dust jacket, things like that. The bonus illustrations were usually printed on a postcard, etc.Very similar to the kinds of things you'd see for special editions of DVDs/Blurays. There would be a limited amount made and if you wanted them all you'd have to buy like 5 copies, one from each store.
-
@Sam-Pinansky Similar to "Exclusive in Store DLC with your pre-order" from video game retailers too. Those dang exclusive horse armor costumes, I need them all. :horse: :shield:

Looks over at my 5 copies of volume 4 of Arifureta.
I regret nothing.
-
Please make Arifuerta bonus illustrations! Could really use some good fan service ones for this one... Because the artist does "those" kind of works anyway! And his art is really good :D
-
Anything special for I Saved Too Many Girls and Caused the Apocalypse volume 2 not listed?
-
@Aruseus493 Nope, just a hand-made glossary.
If you look at sort of which books get which kind of stuff, the older the book the less likely there will be anything, and Little Apocalypse is from 2011...
Heck we don't even have the full cover data (just the illustration and we recreated the background and logo).
-
What is Arifureta's bonus content?
-
@Bryan If I remember correctly, there's a special illustration of Yue in volume 1. Don't remember when they started including short stories. Either from volume 2 or 3 is my bet.
-
@Aruseus493 Yes, we have the Yue "alternate cover" version.
-
@Sam-Pinansky Curious about Bluesteel bonus content.
-
This post could use some updating. Otherwise, what's the bonus for BlueSteel Blasphemer volume 1?
-
@Aruseus493 Some extended translator notes, mostly on how the names were translated + a bit about the religious setting of the series.
-
What is the premium content for the new books?
-
Will the premium editions of Arifureta for coming volumes include the illustrations used for the metalic covers that were limited edition bonuses for what I think was Melon Books. For example, I have 3 volumes so far with metalic covers. Volume 3 has Shea on a bed, volume 4 is a character in full character form, while volume 5 has Shea in a bunny girl outfit.
-
@Aruseus493 I really hope so.
-
Considering how this post isn't getting updated, it might be worth it to just start including what the bonuses are on the volume pages themselves so people can decide before following a purchase link to either kobo/ibook/etc, or purchasing from J-Novel Club.
What's the bonus for Mixed Bathing volume 3 by the way?
Also, any idea when volume 5 will come out in Japan since it's been more than a year since volume 4? I'm a little worried since I'm really enjoying this series.
