Premium E-Book Bonus Contents List!
-
For those wondering whether the paperback editions of Realist Hero by Seven Seas will have the bonus short stories:
The last ~50 pages of this book are extra stories, I'm happy to say. --LS

@hyperion Did they say that on Twitter?
-
@legitpancake Yes, when I asked about it, that's what she said.
-
Note: Had to remove the textless illustrations from the Kadokawa books. Sorry!

@sinnoaria We try and get what's available but things don't always exist or are gettable.

If you can, what's the issue...?
Are you trying to get them back or are they just gone for good? -
@khaos Sam explained on Discord that textless illustrations are prime for print-on-demand bootlegs or unofficial merchandise, and Kadokawa didn't want to enable that behavior. He didn't think it would be an issue since other publishers didn't care, so he never specifically brought it up as a bonus he was providing, and they requested the removal once they found out.

@myskaros Alright thanks, not on discord so didn't see it.

As a person who has bought the Kindle versions (due to convenience) but always having a preference for the paper format, I am greatly relieved that some of the series released by J Novel are being printed.
I know that some of those which are printed by Seven Seas do not have the extra content. But has J Novel indicated at this time if they are putting the short stories for "In another world with my smartphone" in the printed edition? This would be my main incentive for getting the paper copy, I do not think I could justify, a Kindle, a premium and a paper copy. -
wish the Gear Drive short stories had a bit more plot in them(particularly about the purple girl). but I guess we can wait til Vol 2 to see what happens.
-
Hey, I wished I had known about the e-book bonus contents were Premium only. Then I wouldn't have bought the e-books on other platforms. Just my complaint.

@sam-pinansky
Shouldn't Kokoro Connect Volume 2 have textless Illustrations? It's kind of inconsistent since volume 1 had it, or was it forgotten? I've just downloaded premium vol2 and there was none. -
@kyon7 Kadokawa doesn’t want Textless illustrations,
Sam mentioned that on the previous page

The reason why is also mentioned on the previous page

@rahul-balaggan
Yeah, just re-downloaded KC vol 1 and textless illustrations were gone. I guess I will keep my exclusive august edition which still has them :) -
@kyon7 I hate to remove content but it's unfortunately a requirement.
-
Any news what the Bakarina bonus content is?
-
@cosm1cfall If I recall right questions for the author/editor/translator? (I don't recall which one.)
