      The anime caught my attention. JNC is providing main literature translation.

      1. Is this a complete series?
      2. Can anyone that has read this series state, if any of the story's content, could be tagged "Yaoi" and or "Yuri".

      No in depths explanations or personal preference within your answers. If you prefer, you can opt to message me your replies instead of replying on this thread. Sorry. This format is to remain in keeping with new forum guideline.

        @igounfazed The Japanese version is currently 2 books ahead of the English. I don't know if Volume 6 (recently released in Japan) is the end of the series or not.

        There are currently no actual yuri or yaoi relationships in the series. The possibility of one was teased in the 2nd and 3rd volumes, but ultimately never happened.

            The story is somewhat episodic, with good stopping points every volume or 2 (volumes 2, 3, 4 so far in the US). No yuri or yaoi relationships or even stalking / harem wannabes as of 4. As mentioned there's one silly sequence in one volume that isn't meant to be taken seriously by the reader.

            If somehow volume 5 was never released in the US there wouldn't be any real cliffhangers to torment us. Some loose threads, but nothing like Monster Tamer where at least a couple of volumes ended on literal cliffhangers, as in someone(s) + cliff + looming death.

              So, I have been searching for more information. But... I haven't had any luck: Did volume 6 actually end the series? And where can I go to see if 5 and 6 would be translated as well?

              Any help is greatly appreciated.

                @igounfazed You'll just have to wait to see if J-Novel Club licensed them for translation as well. Volume 4 was just completed in pre-publication and it usually takes a while before the next volume starts even if it's been licensed.

                  When we (J-Novel Club) license a series we intend to continue all volumes as they become available in japan.

                  As for when. The standard response can be found here:

                  Sorry but J-Novel Club does not publicly comment on any potential licensing decision or acquisitions.
