              Minor comment. I find the illustration bonus content to be underwhelming compared to interviews and bonus stories. Although this is likely something that can't be helped, it lowers my motivation to buy certain series. Although I really enjoy "Mixed Bathing in Another Dimension", I'm bummed out by how the bonuses are always illustrations. Granted, that's probably one of the main selling points for fan service in this series.

                @karsin I personally prefer bonus illustrations and bonus short stories while interviews and glossaries make me not want to purchase them lol.

                Everyone has different taste, personally I think a fan service series should at least have some bonus fan service illustrations, while story orientated stories can do with bonus short stories.

                  I can see how the bonus stuff tries to appeal to the target audience of each series, although there are weird exceptions. Like the early Grimgar bonuses being illustrations. Although I haven't gotten as much out the bonuses, that hasn't stopped me from getting every "Mixed Bath" release so far...

                    Is there supposed to be another bonus illustration for Arifureta volume 3? The post list "illustrations" unlike volume 2. Yet, there's only one bonus illustrations of Tio at the end of the volume.

                        Recommendations for some future Premium Bonuses for some series:

                        • Arifureta
                          Class roster with each student's class. (Bad pun, I know.)
                          World Map - Please bug the Japanese publisher for a world map.
                        • Realist Hero - Character List

                        They're both the same thing. But I really do like when Light Novels (like Mixed Bathing) include lists of characters at the beginning of each volume. This is especially true when there are a lot of them with different positions and personalities. Would be helpful for reading these series in which we get one volume every other month or so to keep track of who the side characters are. It's one thing when it's a new character who is being introduced to us in that very scene, but it's another when it's a side character that only appears a few times each volume.

                        • Mixed Bathing in Another Dimension - World Map please.

                            @aruseus493 Short stories. We should have them for every volume of Grimgar going forward.

                                I feel like the bonus content with JNC purchases should be a JNC thing or something that was not in the original Japanese release. Textless colour illustrations can be good or illustrations by the artist if they were not in the original release. You know what, I would not mind a bit of a translators commentary at the end of the book or something.

                                  What's the bonus for Outbreak company? I just started reading it and I quite enjoy it.

                                    Yes original stuff is good but can be expensive, if we are going for original art then some illustrators will charge a lot since they “bigger” then others.

                                    The other thing is that I really like these bonus stories that I would otherwise never get to read. If JNC pursuers original content for their books it’s not tagt I would be against it, but I would be sad tagt I can’t read any of these store exclusive bonus stories.

                                            One oddity I noticed about Outbreak Company vol.1 is, that while every other ebook I've checked has this at the very end; Premium Ebook For 'name' , it alone seems to lack that, instead it simply has; Ebook edition 1.0: November 2017

                                            It does have the bonus content listed above so it is however the premium version.
