      @Terrence The categories we're allowed to choose in KDP are vastly different and much more constrained from the total of all categories that Amazon uses.

        Really seems to be a double standard happening here. Amazon is hardly lacking in manga with risque art and adult subject matters. Are other LN publishers also facing this or is it because they're not publishing through KDP?

          its so funny that, they didnt erase from start or end. They just erased randomly.

          Volume 2, 6, 10. They seem just picked a number and erased them :D

          8 parts, 8 weeks to read a book, than binge read the same book within' 2 hours again.

          Myne: Did we deceived him?
          Ferdinand: Indeed we did.
          Myne: *surprised myneface

            It's probably not really randomly. It's almost certainly because people are pushing the report inappropriate content button on the product listing. Algorithm is probably designed to delist anything that get flagged multiple times. Theoretically there should be someone reviewing these things to prevent people from brigading and getting legitimate products removed, but clearly amazon doesn't really care too much about this.

              Bakarina 6 is still missing on Amazon? Any idea when it may be fixed?

                  (From Twitter) the upload is currently in review, that can be as fast as 1 hour or 72 hours, only time will tell.

                    True enough. But there's entirely too many people out there who's motto is "I don't like that, therefore you can't have it."

                    Morning and Mourning sound alike for good and sufficient reasons.

                      @jcochran I only know the saying “If I can’t have it, you can’t either.”😅
                      Really, I hate such people. It would be something different, if these illustrations were pornographic, but at this level there is nothing I could nag at it. And if these kiddies are still too young for such books and feel emberassed, or even disgusted by slight nudity, just don’t read it!!!

                        Those of you looking to buy Bakarina on Amazon, the listing is currently up and working, but no telling if it'll be taken down again.

                          So this is what happened. I would suggest posting this also on the website as the most will start to look there for any clue.

                          I can still download the bought books from Amazon. So they don't seem to be removed entirely. Atleast from the German Amazon.

                          EDIT: and checked. Mixed bathing is completely available here.

                            First post has been updated with the current books that have been removed. Bakarina 6 which was uploaded on release day and the preorder for 7 both seem to be working, so hopefully they don't get removed (again).

                                The entire "The Greatest Magicmaster's Retirement Plan" series has been completely purged from Amazon. Unable to even search for it.

                                      I’m not seeing I Shall Survive Using Potions, or any of How Not to Summon a Demon Lord.

                                        It feels like Amazon has a thing for JNC.

                                        JNC LN Ranking:
                                        1st - Rokujouma
                                        2nd - Realist Hero
                                        3rd - Bookworm

                                          @BartzBB But it's not just JNC at this point; No Game No Life is Yen Press... though it wouldn't be a surprise if Amazon still has it out for Hachette.

                                          My talking sword has a point. And is also right.

                                            @LegitPancake Some "How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord" physicals are still available, but all kindle books have been removed. Some of them have been actually totally purged, with their pages being completely inaccessible (6, 7, 8 and 10)
