The Apothecary Diaries: Volume 1

I saw that you have startet translating this LN so I went to Amazon to preorder it. Then I noticed it that there is also manga. It is a bit confusting to discern which one was manga and which one was light novel. I suggest that you put on your release that it is light novel in order to avoid confusion.
Here is your page:
And here is manga page:
If you do not pay attention who is translator it is easy to mix it up.

JNC is only translating the LN. The manga is by Square Enix so they have no control over it.

I meant you should put on your title that it is light novel :)

Oh, sorry I misunderstood.

I mean they’re pretty easy to distinguish, since they have completely different covers, the manga has 4 names credited on the cover as opposed to the novel’s 2, the manga is in the manga category, whereas the LN is in novel fiction, and finally they have different publishers in the more info section.
Yea I agree it would be better to put (light novel) in the title of every series they post on Amazon, but for some reason they only do it for a few series. Now just look at Ideal Sponger Life, it’s completely unfindable due to it being filed in as a different version of the manga, with its paperback release and all its reviews attached.

Thank you for your feedback! This was an oversight on our part, and we have updated our Amazon listing to be more clear that we're publishing the light novel.
