Demon Noble Girl ~Story of a Careless Demon~
-
@piisfun It's a bit different here. It's neither hime (姫) nor oujo (王女) but koujo(公女), which jisho helpfully lists as "young noblewoman; princess." Not an expert myself but I usually see the 公 kanji used with duke-level nobility, like in Private Tutor to the Duke's Daughter (公女殿下の家庭教師), which of course seems to be LN authors' favorite nobility level. In general, though, I wouldn't take English titles on Japanese LN covers too seriously, they're not professional or official translations, are often amusingly off, and presumably are just aesthetic for marketing purposes over there.

@Lisast
Adding on, 悪魔 (Akuma) seems to be treated as either "devil" or "demon" in equal measure, depending upon the context?So you've got 《[devil/demon(type context sensitive)][young noblewoman(rank context sensitive)]》, so I suppose we can't really say which of the various possible interpretations it would be until we've read enough of the story to know her race from the first reincarnation and the status of her family in the world of her second reincarnation.
Context counts, after all.

I just found out that this is serialized last year. Hope it gets translated.
-
Read the web novel some time ago, it‘s quite good.

@BREAKERMASTAH
I approve of this, please please please... before another company that shall not be named snatched this and curse us with a slow release!! -
two volume out with kadokaw
Wait, wasn't Kadokawa a YP monopoly? or was that an outdated info?
-
@bedwetter_alice Kadokawa sort of owns JNC now so it would be possible for JNC to get a Kadokawa title
-
@Lily-Garden That's really relieving to hear, here's hoping.
-
I'm not sure where the confusion started, but this series is published by Kodansha, not Kadokawa :X
-
@myskaros ….well here’s hoping that you guys get it anyway
-
@myskaros Ah... sorry, i just saw it on the OP and felt all hope drained away. Thanks! hope is back on the menu (honestly, acquiring this series could be a gateway to the HaruNoHi's extended universe).
-
@bedwetter_alice Well, that's another point of confusion for me; JNC has licensed tons of books from Kadokawa, around 40 different series? https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/1703/english-licenses-sorted-by-jp-publisher
-
I'm raising this topic from the dead because I think it'd be a nice licensing suggestion for J-Novel.
I read the manga and it's quite good.
-
The web novel was quite interesting, I would like to read the light novel too.
-
Wasn‘t this the web novel with the cute golden demon kitty? If so, upvote!
-
Quite enjoyed the web novel some time ago, would love to read the light novel too.
Btw, volume 3 and 4 are out:


-
Yes, yes, yes, please!!! Read the web novel and it‘s so exiting (though the manga is utter crap in my eyes). Give me the light novel NOW!
-
Ohhh this is by the same author who made everyone's favourite little murder hobo in otome survival. I would definitely pick this up or anything else by them.
-
I like the novel, but the manga is total trash.
-
@Seandrake Author of the littlest murder hobo? I’d give it a try.
