Time to Fall for February Catchups!
-
Just wanted to ask but is there any news as to when the magic in this other world is too far behind volume 10 is gonna be released? Also is the author still even working on this series bc a bunch of people i asked on reddit r under the impression that the author dropped this series bc of how long we have had to wait and still have to wait for even a volume 10 announcement.
-
@Leg3ndaryGamer7 The author hasn't touched the original web novel in over two years, and there's not enough content for a 10th volume. So I think the author has abandoned it. It's possible he could go back and work on it again, but don't get your hopes up.
-
@LegitPancake That may be true but I've seen authors deleting their web novel while they are publishing the LNs or just advance the LNs and forget about the WNs so you also shouldn't be pessimistic about it.
-
@LegitPancake iirc, the author had a habit of uploading new chapters after corresponding light novel volume was out (with the exception of the latest volume where he gave up on the wait), so WN is not really representative of author's activity on the novel. He may still work on the new volume or at least have plans to return to it someday. Or not.
-
@Wellwisher Does the author have a Twitter? Maybe we could ask him there if he does?

I don't have a twitter account and don't speak japanese, so can't help any more wirh that. -
@Wellwisher Unfortunately, my Japanese is basically only good for getting simple directions, recognizing anime catchphrases and meme phrases, and telling VTubers "ganbare!".

Reminder that catchups will be rotating on Monday at around 10 a.m. PST / 1800 UTC!

Finished Far Too Behind just in time. That magic system(s) was weird.

Just managed to scrape in Economics of Prophecy before tomorrow’s turnover. I was intrigued by the concept but somewhat unimpressed with its execution.
I also got pretty bored of The Magic in This Other World after just two volumes, I rather quickly didn’t vibe with its pacing and hearing people’s comments on later volumes just killed my interest I guess lol.
At least Bookworm manga was there to appreciate <3
