Tokyo Ghoul (Spin-off LN)I'm pretty much reading and am caught up on everything currently released by Yen On, except for Durarara (which I think was completely covered by the anime, if not, correct me) and Strike the Blood (because the anime's ending pissed me off). I also read a lot of manga.
-
Was happy to get a package from RightStuf with the new SAO, Asterick War and the first volume of Goblin Slayer.
-
Starting Baccano volume 4 now. Wish me luck at finishing this and the three expiring J-Novel volumes I haven't read (suspect I'll be using my credits on one or two of those). š£
-
@terrence good luck, no life it if you have too like I do XD
-
Among a bunch of other titles listed here... Goblin Slayer.
-
Nearly every single Yen Press and JNC series.
-
Date A Live by Koushi Tachibana, such a good series and I really hope it could get licensed here in English by either J-novel or Yen Press or anyone else
-
I need some help with remembering stuff about the Gandors from Baccano volumes 1,2, and 3 so I can be ready for 4. One specific element....
(SPOILERS for Baccano up to volume 4)

Anything Gandor related would be super helpful. =)You are pretty much on the money. :slight_smile:
Personally I really like the Gandors and volume 4 is a favourite of mine! After you finish the book, you might want to check out chapters 1-5 of the (good) manga as it features that group of childhood friends in a prequel story set in 1927. It's not essential by any means but I enjoyed it. :slight_smile:

Anyone seen this site Qidian International? Are they legit / legal Chinese web novels translated to English? How do they make their money (ads?)?
After I saw the Cross Infinite World announcement of that Reincarnated into an Otome Protagonist book, I wanted to see if there were any male reincarnation stories, and there's one called Neet Receives a Dating Sim System there.
-
@terrence Arguably legit, probably not legal: https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/6cvjst/whats_going_on_with_qidian_international_and/
I'm not really interested in any Wuxiang/Cultivation/Chinese novels (except maybe Release That Witch), but this Qidian saga is popcorn worthy.

Ahh, too bad. I try to stay on the up and up with my novel reading (haven't read any fanslations yet, but if I did, I'd probably want to purchase the books in Japanese first to show support).
Edit: I don't really understand the situation in the link though... that doesn't sound like illegal, just them taking back their properties and not licensing any more to that other site. I'm probably misunderstanding the situation from those posts.
Edit 2: That additional link on the Reddit got me an answer to my other question...
which they intend to paywall in a few months.
-
@terrence The illegal part refers to https://www.reddit.com/r/noveltranslations/comments/6cp1ag/please_use_this_thread_to_discuss_the_wuxiaworld/. I obviously cannot verify those claims, but with everything said and done, Qidan seems to be at least scummy.
-
From what I gather, Qidan just rips fan translations from Wuxia World, though they're in process of recruiting Wuxia World's translators and bringing over their series.
They're currently in legal dispute with them as well.
Personally I wouldn't read stuff on Qidan. They seem really scummy, aiming for an eventual paywall and LOL I ain't paying for fan translations.

You aren't buying Invaders of the Rokujyoma? Granted it's getting edited.
-
@terrence I am buying Rokujouma.
-
Hey, I have one more question if you don't mind.
How old is Luck developmentally?
I'm curious if Luck x Eve Genoard could be a thing in the future, but don't spoil it. Luck being single was something brought up in the volume
