Thanks anon.

The Zaregoto Series volumes I got at an auction arrived earlier.

Cons:

>No extra stuff, unless you count a hair of questionable length and frizzyness or the Salus mag that was used as protection for a volume.

Pros:

>Hitokui Magical is the only one with a reversible cover, great touch.

>Rice paper on the signed volume to protect the signature, also a nice touch

>NISIOISIN

Now to wait until I know enough 昴 川崎 to be able to read them.

Recommend me something with a heroine that constantly bullies girls with smaller boobs.

Like the scene where Hestia bullies Loki but more extreme or more frequent.

Alternatively recommend me heroines that are constantly talking about their huge boobs. "My shoulders are stiff" and all that.

Caught up with 天才王子の赤字国家再生術. Mediocre as a kingdom-building/political mindgames story. In-world times and distances may as well not exist. And the author put zero effort in making characters organically intelligent. Its quite obvious that he wrote out the entire plot development first and then made the chars seem intelligent by making them apparently omniscient lol. All that said, it is still entertaining enough to not make me drop it midway.
Also its been 20 months since the last vol, when the story finally got to something good. Hope this isn't one more case of anime adaptation killing the source.

Same anon from before, here's the 7 volumes of Kyonyuu Fantasy that were free w/Kindle Unlimited, as far I could tell Anna's Archive only had 3.

Question; what makes a light novel different from a regular novel? Is it just a short novel in a series? Is something like Animorphs or Goosebumps considered a light novel? I really loved those books growing up

>>47068335
Originally just the printing format.
These days there's no real difference when you have publishers like HJ having both a 文庫 and ノベルス labels yet the publications are basically the same.

>>47068335
If you're published by a light novel imprint you're a light novel, basically. There are LNs without illustrations or sequels.

>>47068335
Nobody knows, not even japanese. At this point, if the publisher or the author calls their work a light novel, it's a light novel.
jp wiki's entry has enough details if you are interested https://ja.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%A9%E3%82%A4%E3%83%88%E3%83%8E%E3%83%99%E3%83%AB

>>47069305
nta but at this point i don't trust wikipedia, not even the jp version

>>47069375
Nothing lost in giving it a chance. Its very easy for someone with some preliminary knowledge to see if the entry is shit or not, can decide its reliability after giving it a read.

Death to all school romance. Who wants to read about a retarded child that is scared to hold hands with a girl and constantly studders. The original donkey kong game is a better romance than this garbage.

Give me a better romance now or else.

Does pandering to femoids even work? Or is it just a loud minority?
Pretty much in every sales ranking I have seen the past 5 years has male-pandering LNs taking the bestselling spots, and things like maomao and honzuki can be argued can be enjoyed by anyone due to not being full of fujoshit and just having interesting plots but even then they don't take big dog spots.

>>47074704
My feeling is that most popular fujo stuff is fan/derivative works for series that are popular with both sexes and aren't romance-oriented. I think there are less men interested in romance fiction than women easily, however men that do read stuff that is romance like actual official published romance content like rabukome LNs/manga, gyaruge etc. whereas they use derivative works like doujinshi mostly as porn

>>47074704
Yumejoshis and fujos are definitely a minority, but pandering to them can be extremely profitable because they're willing to spend their life savings on their obsessions.
This rarely manifests in the LN industry, though, since LNs are cheap and don't get much merch for them to throw their money at.

>>47073658
let me guess, you need more?

>>47051163
I figured this board/thread would be a good place to ask:
let's say I was trying to learn Japanese with input because sit down study is very boring. I bought and read through multiple folktale books for learning Jap and found the method interesting and less tedious than sitting on Duolingo or something.
what are some good VNs/LNs that I could start with and not miss out too much from misunderstanding nuance, tone, puns ect?
I thought about reading the youjo senki LNs or WN, but I read the first few volumes in English and if the translation is anything to go by in this case the terminology and specificity will be on a level I think will be less generally applicable to other content.
if any other input suggestions, would be glad to take. anime is an option too of course but I can kinda cheat with anime and watch a lot without understanding every bit because of action, facial expression ect. VNs offer this too to aid in helping me get that intuitive understanding but you could exactly skip the nuance in a VN, I feel like that's the point of reading, the detail

>>47074999
>>47042190

>>47074999
>VNs/LNs that I could start with and not miss out too much from misunderstanding nuance, tone, puns ect?
I'd really recommend VNs over LNs at first because reading without knowing what shit sounds like is super hard It's really hard to get a grasp on basic grammar let alone nuance and tone and puns when you don't properly know how a common sentence is emphasized. Intonation is huge in getting the gist of what someone means in sentences where you haven't mastered the grammar used yet. Easier books won't relaly fix this problem, they'll mostly just throw less vocabulary at you. If anything the less technical the content the more difficult that part is and the less google translatable it is. Like cute girls in kuma kuma bear having a childish conversation vs a narrator of a senki providing exposition on the strategic scenario and tactical layout of a battle. Put the latter in chatgpt you'll get a pretty accurate picture of what's going on even if you lose the nuance of all the language play within that prose. Do that with the former and the result is not close to the same experience. To put it in English terms imagine starting English from scratch going into pure text media and trying to understand "oh, that's just great" without knowing what it sounds like when people say that sentence. You might not even consider sarcasm. Or how about a character saying nothing but "dude" as an interjection in an action scene. Japanese's equivalents to that sort of thing will be really impenetrable if you start with LNs. To be really blunt though as a noob you just have to follow the plot/what's going on, and being able to appreciate nuance and tone is your reward you get to enjoy later.

>>47075010
kuma kuma bear,
arifureta,
isekai sumaho, I'm guessing based on a. reply from that thread?
the only isekai I've enjoyed much is re:zero for thematic reasons but kuma kuma might be tolerable for cuteness.
>>47075061
yeah, VNs would be a go to I suppose but I do like my long form reading too. I figured certain things would be a bit easier to pick up on, for example, in kuma kuma bear if it makes it obvious a girl is cute and having fun then I could imagine the tone. thanks for the insight overall though friend, Im of a mind to just play eroges and have the lewdness give me the dopamine shots of getting through dialogue and story.
rec me your favorite LN series overall too.

>>47074999
>I bought and read through multiple folktale books for learning Jap and found the method interesting and less tedious than sitting on Duolingo or something.
Immersion is the top recommendation to learn, yes.
>what are some good VNs/LNs that I could start with and not miss out too much from misunderstanding nuance, tone, puns ect?
You kinda have to accept you will miss out on a lot of subtext and jokes until you get more fluent.
You can always just reread stuff eventually.
>and if the translation is anything to go by in this case the terminology and specificity will be on a level I think will be less generally applicable to other content.
Depends.
Fancy military keigo is kinda almost universal once you get used to time period keigo differences (a general in a military or sci-fi setting will speak differently to a general in a fantasy setting, but not by much).
Non-technobabble or non-magic terminology like ranks, formations, and so on is actually kinda universal.
Contrary to what you may think, both technobabble and magic terminology isn't all that universal, basic terms like 魔法 or 星間 kinda are, beyond that? Good fucking luck, there's like 5 different terms (that I can remember, there's probably more) that can be used for barriers and shields alone, up to and including just saying it in katakana, and all of them have different functions to an extent, and for better or worse this type of granularity matters, especially on ultra-autistic series like to aru or mahouka.
And don't get me started on martial arts terminology, learning stuff like 間合い is just the beginning.
That said it's not THAT difficult, you're just going to notice the hurdle.
>I feel like that's the point of reading, the detail
Seems like you aren't as early on in your learning as the usual people that ask for help.
This plateau of depth is more or less what most people hit at some point, the solution isn't to read simple stuff, but to jump straight into something more complex and learning from there.
The first few pages will be grueling if you hit some complex stuff, but that's the hard part, it's just improvement from that point onward.
Do jump into youjo senki, just be warned it will be painful, but worth it.

>>47074776
>I think there are less men interested in romance fiction than women easily, however men that do read stuff that is romance like actual official published romance content like rabukome LNs/manga, gyaruge etc.
to be fair, you would be surprised how saturated and cutthroat all the romance genres are, even when they pander specifically to guys
and i'm talking about stuff when that's at the front like otonari tenshi or the cyka blyat bitch, not stuff that x and romance/harem

>>47074704
Yeah, the very top in the sales ranking in male oriented, but the female-oriented stuff is growing fast, especially since the pandemic for some reason.

>>47074704
>Does pandering to femoids even work?
seven seas hitting NYT bestellers by selling gay Chinese novels speaks for itself

>>47075255
>or the cyka blyat bitch

>>47075151
>yeah, VNs would be a go to I suppose but I do like my long form reading too.
Most VNs are as long as multiple LN volumes actually. For example if you look at jpdb (whose stats are far from precise, mind you) it says that Fate/Stay Night is 80k sentences long, compared to 25 volumes of Sword Art Online which is said to be 120k sentences long. And since you can put down LNs at the end of an arc and pick them back up from the next arc later whereas VNs tend to be unsatisfying if you don't go all the way from beginning to end, VNs tend to feel like a bigger time commitment. Fate/Stay Night is longer than average but there are a lot of very long VNs like that. A good example of a really short VN I like is マルコと銀河龍 which, looking right now, it says 8k sentences. Keeping in mind that these numbers are not very precise indicators of how long a work is but they're like the best thing we have, SAO beign 120k at 25 volumes would be roughly 5k per volume which is pretty similar to other series I've read as well, so even that example of a short VN I like is at least as long as 1 LN volume. That said if you're the type who only likes to do 1 or 2 routes per eroge instead of exploring every heroine that will cut down on their length by a fair chunk.
>rec me your favorite LN series overall too.
Depends ON my mood I guess but I really like 目覚めたら最強装備と宇宙船持ちだったので、一戸建て目指して傭兵として自由に行きたい which actually got really popular around here last year. Though I like it a lot it's not at all a series that tugs on your heartstrings or gets you super obsessed with its characters (though I really find 2 of them in particular extremely adorable), it's more like pulpy action where you're not supposed to feel anything other than 'heh, cool' while the heroes cut down mooks (in this case space pirates) in the dozens who were begging for mercy before being blown up. So for that reason I'm not at all going to recommend it when you're in the mood for more emotionally driven stories that will make you fantasize about the characters while you're going about your day, if you're someone who likes to use this stuff as hardcore emotionally-attached escapism like me. But if you're in the mood for a blend of sci-fi, hokuto no ken style evildoer mass slaughter, and a lot of slice of life scenes with the crew then I would recommend it.

>>47075344
how does that type of garbage even sell yet it leaves no cultural impact anywhere?
is it just money laundering?

>>47076014
>yet it leaves no cultural impact anywhere?
It does have a large subculture, you're just segregated from it because you never interact with women.

>>47077357
lol, hahahahaha

>>47075500
>most VNs are as long as multiple LN volumes
thats true, but they fill a different niche to me. as you say, I think they are better experienced beginning to end rather than picking it up and making it a reader to fill time. I've read F/sn , mainline higurashi, and most of umi and I done em all in binges.
I'm gonna take a look into your recc as well as probably take another anons suggestion to just jump in. I'm certainly not at a level where I don't benefit from babby studies and grammar review but I've built an intuition from the input practice I have done.

Do Miyabi Hotoka, Verónica Lautremont, Twoearle and Philuffy Aingram have the absoute biggest boobs in their respective series? Or do bigger characters appear later?

Can you recommend me other "magical academy" series with buxom ladies?

Is Kaii to Otome to Kamikakushi actually Good?

Are the "side stories" from Horizon in the middle of Nowhere (Kimitoasamade and Girls talk) any good? Do they have sex scenes?

How ecchi is Owari Chronicles compared to Horizon?

>>47074999
what are some good VNs/LNs that I could start with and not miss out too much from misunderstanding nuance, tone, puns ect?
purchase Sabbat of the witch https://vndb.org/v16044

Thanks anon. Bokuto should get off his twitter addiction and get the next nanatsuma vol out soon.

Kaido's next volume release date announcements are such a jinx.
At first, he used to say it'd come out on this or that month.
But after missing the month a few times, he decided to just give the season instead.
But after vol 21 came out at the end of September after he said it'd come out in Summer, he said that 22 would come out "in the first half of 2024" since there's no way he could be wrong about that, right?
Well, we're about to enter the second half of the year and all we have is the twitter account meekly saying they're working on it.
I hope Kaido doesn't say that vol 23 will come out "in 2025," since that will probably make it a 2026 release.

>>47086905
wouldn't be as annoying if the most recent wn update wasn't a little over a month ago and even then it was just a few relatively short chapters

>>47086384
yeah bro it hurts
At least the anime is coming back

>>47086732
>even got asanagi to do a guest illustration

wew lad
what an out of nowhere work

>>47086951
He put up an AE chapter just yesterday, though. It's one of those short stories based on reader requests.
It's not much, sure, but at least he cares enough to do that. Many authors in his position would use their work on the LN, the side story, and the WN planning as an excuse to disappear completely.

>>47087067
"Many authors" don't move the volume release goalpost a dozen times and end up still not releasing it so far.
Somehow complete hiatus ghosting is less annoying than this.

>>47087103
To be fair, his volume release announcements only began being wrong on like vol 17, and for what it's worth, he said that he never missed a deadline given to him by the publisher, so personally, I assume it's HJ's bureaucracy that fucks up the release schedules.

I'm still not over this, seriously, fuck this volume

>>47087149
>on like vol 17
>Release Date November 1, 2021 (JP)
tfw
and ngl i feel like the dripfeed shit doesn't work on novels like it does with weekly/monthly manga
feels like people are more used to just reading a whole volume worth of content because of jumping between the ongoing series they are following and/or backlog
>b-b-b-but daily wn updates exist
that's hardly a dripfeed, that's the whole river
and personally i let them stack to binge them later too

>>47087164
The big filter...

>>47086905
Because of the layers upon layers of sheer autism dendro has, I find it understandable.
Patience inevitably runs thin at some point however.

Does anyone have epubs of vols 2-4 of 女友達は頼めば意外とヤらせてくれる?

>>47087334
at some point something stops being a filter and it starts becoming just shit
and while this line is a fat gradient for most people, this is very much shit

>>47087770
Filtered.

>>47087164
I want to read this just to know what people are talking about re: this volume

>>47087164
Over the years, I have only heard bits and pieces about what went down in Alderamin, can I get a rundown?

>>47087962
>>47088021
people read a war story and get mad because someone dies at war, pussies

>>47088153
The whole plot was stupid, the characters acted like idiots and you're forgetting the whole princess going full schizo

>>47088166
The only problem is, almost none of the people that criticize this volume talk about anything other than the death. And Chamille being batshit insane was greatly foreshadowed starting from the volume 1.

>>47088199
the death sucked as well, really, especially after spending a good 200 pages making sure that the reader understands how much they care for each other
but nothing beats all three camps knowing that the prime minister is behind all of that is happening and yet committing to whatever that civil war was

>>47078835
thanks for the suggestion anon! it also looks like my type of VN.

>>47088021
imagine if Sylphy suddenly started LARPing as Laplace, murdered Eris and then locked Rudeus in her rape dungeon
That's not what happened, but it's about on the same level of what the fuck just happened.

>>47088021
Honestly the entire shitshow doesn't lend itself to a QRD, unless you want someone to basically translate the entire volume plus the required context line by line in greentext format.
It's really one of those things you have to experience yourself to see it in full.

>>47089515
>imagine if Sylphy suddenly started LARPing as Laplace, murdered Eris and then locked Rudeus in her rape dungeon
that sounds good though

>>47090868
Which is exactly why it filters people, they just don't get why it's good.
Can't even cope with "poor writing" claims either, it's all laid out properly.

>>47090868
You mean like going down a route where she really wasn't ok with the whole Roxy and Eris thing and was just scared she needed to accept it or be the one who doesn't get picked, and then she eventually runs out of gaman and snaps?

>>47091230
i mean rather than what we got which was cute little eris becoming a man and a certain erectile dysfunctioneus suffering as a result that would have been a better outcome. and it's not like sylphy is yandere so roxy could still join

>>47091463
The reasoning behind Eris leaving Rudeus is probably the most contrived thing in the series, especially with the perfectly ambiguous 勘違いされやすい note she left behind that conveniently gives Rudeus the completely wrong idea, but it did lead to a great story to me so I think it was worth it. You just kinda have to suspend disbelief a bit and it's not really that hard to accept it, because it does feel fairly in character for her to go off and train to be strong enough or whatever while keeping it a secret for him. The main thing that really never feels right is just how long she was willing to do it without making contact at all to the extent that it basically ended the relationship from everyone's perspective but hers

>>47091536
Samefag here, I just wanna add that I just remembered how incredibly comfy the volumes 3-6 period was, and I can't really blame people for whom the series just sort of ends there because despite how much I like everything after it's never the same after that

Completed 軍人少女、皇立魔法学園に潜入することになりました. Conclusion: It's dogshit. Completely unrelated to yaoi but the words やまなし、おちなし、いみなし fits this series perfectly. I hate myself for not being able to put down partway through once I started reading.

>>47078801
>>47083205
Excuse me very much. I could have sworn it was a LN series.

I dropped mushoku tensei in the first few lines where he jerks off to creepshots of his loli niece
Is it true that he never stops being a pedo?

>>47092263
he doubles down

Anyone got vol9 of urasekai picnic?

>>47092263
yeah he fucks all of his daughters

need reccs
something thrilling with noir like setting

>>47094235
unfathomably based

>>47087164
lol
in my top 5 ln
the last vol was also kino if you know what i mean

>>47087164
Too lazy to read it I'll watch the anime now

>>47095939
Which covers up to volume... 3

>>47095947
what's worse
>a single season that only covers 3 volumes, and s2 never ever
>a single season that somehow crams 7+ volumes into a single dual cour, then s2 never ever
still mad about the matty-kun anime
why the fuck does shinkou have such shit luck with adaptations on his flagship series

>>47096426
I've always felt it's better to thoroughly do one or few arcs then to speed run more arcs. Not an LN but barely anyone has watched all 1000 One Piece episodes but countless people have enjoyed One Piece. In the alternate timeline where the author of your favorite series dies before he finishes volume 5, that series probably isn't less worth reading because of that. A well done adaptation that only covers the first chunk can attract people to the source material to see what happens next as well

>>47096426
>>a single season that somehow crams 7+ volumes into a single dual cour, then s2 never ever
sounds like hyakuren

>Ever caring about adaptations or considering them anything more than an omoshiroi novelty, if that.

>>47096596
>considering them anything more than an omoshiroi novelty
This. However even if you do care or don't, it's undeniable that most LN anime adaptions end up affecting the original source material negatively in some kind of way
it's why there's a dedicated thread on 5ch's LN board to shit on adaptations

>>47096878
>it's why there's a dedicated thread on 5ch's LN board to shit on adaptations
wtf i didn't know their LN general/board was based

>>47096596
At least they have an anime adaptation to complain about, unlike dendrofags. :^)

Konosuba anime...has taken on a life of its own

>>47097000
Which "anime adaptation that doesn't exist" is worse, Dendro's or Tsukihime's?

>>47097057
Tsukihime had a cool OP at least.

>>47097057
unironically hard question
damn

>>47097057
My vote is on the dendro one because I don't even remember either the OP or ED being redeemable features.

>>47097485
>My vote is on the dendro one because I don't even remember either the OP or ED
same

WTF is wrong with NU?

Anybody knows where to find the フェノメノ light novel RAW?

>>47101854
TMW
https://gofile.io/d/55nkxn

>>47101986
holy shit anon thank you so much. I was getting kinda desperate there, couldn't find it anywhere.

>>47101986
if you don't mind me asking where did you find them? So when the last volume drops I can get it without bothering anyone. Or I'll just buy the knidle version.
Thanks again.

>>47102216
>>47102063
nta but I've actually ripped all 6 volumes and uploaded them to AB, if you give me a few hours I can put them up on mega for you once I'm home.

>>47102270
would really love it anon. Thank you so much for your kindness.

>>47102296
Wait I just realised my mistake, the ebook version of Phenomeno was only 5 volumes, that link should be all of them.

>>47102775
oh, thanks anyway anon.

はじめてのゾンビ生活

thanks anon that sometimes uploads the stuff that is posted here to zlib, the world needs more people like you. also I wonder why some books on tmw get shared to zlib quickly but most get completely ignored

>>47104226
TMW has like 2 useful autists and 5 buyfags in the entire pisscord server, everyone else is an useless leech at best, or part of the revolving door of people trying to learn japanese but not even getting past N5 at worst.

>>47104251
I only joined for book-sharing so I honestly don't care about the other channels, but from a piracy standpoint I find it quite nice that everything shared there stays on the discord, the mega folders and (especially) the massive torrent collections so you don't need to worry too much about stuff being lost forever to dead links. Anyway, it's nice that someone uploads the stuff here to zlib instead of letting it get lost to time.

>>47103579
>https://lolibrary.moe/
sorry I'm a newfag but how do I use the site? I enter the title, but then I can't click on nothing? Do I need some cookie file like on ExHentai?
>>47104226
whta is your pic coming from? What's zlib or TMW? Sorry I'm really new to LN stuff.

>>47104226
Not him, but I also tend to upload light novels on zlib.

>>47104226
I ripped some stuff like a year ago but never got around uploading them, thanks for the reminder.

it's a grand scale rpg very 王道 at time and very chuuni in nature
it's well executed, gameplay you need on hard at a certain point since it'll be too easy otherwise but is alright for the most part
