Timeline of D-Genesis - you will be spoiled
-
This is the current timeline of event in D-Genesis from book 1 through 7. It was initially made as counterpoint to some conversation about the Miyoshi and Keigo's intelligence.
It would help for all of you to post additions to the timeline and I will add them. Unless it is important to the timeline like The Ring, please try to include a specific date, or it may not get added.
All times in the timeline are in JST. So if something happens in a different timezone, I will usually convert to JST before posting in the timeline.

This is not exactly timeline related, but it was buried in post like 350 of the volume 6 thread. Page count per part for all the released novels.
@Ingraman said in D-Genesis Vol. 6 Discussion!:
Hmm… 17 parts for this book, according to JNC’s page for the series.
Yeah, but since it is a longer book, it is likely similar word count per part on here. All of the previous books were 14 parts. So, only 3 more this time to handle 50 more pages. Made me curious though, so I did the math.
Book # J-Novel Parts Bookwalker.jp Pages** Pages per Part 1 14 518 37.0 2 14 476 34.0 3 14 448 32.0 4 14 498 35.6 5 14 481 34.4 6 17 561 33.0 7 15 508 33.9 8 14* 505 36.1* 9 14* 549 39.2* *-Indicates a published but unlicensed work, 14 was used to match books 1-5, the number of actual parts is unknown until licensed and listed on the website.
**-This is the number of pages when displayed with the standard font size of the BOOK WALKER app on a typical smartphone. The number of pages may vary depending on the model used and the font size of the display. (DeepL translation of the Bookwalker tool tip on page count)
Based on that, it looks like this is the second lowest Japanese page count per J-Novel part. So, yes it might feel like less per part that the previous, but honestly, not by much and not the least.
