I always wondered about this one, I've see it on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kono_Light_Novel_ga_Sugoi!

and it still doesn't have a manga or anime.

Is it good? Should I buy it?

It's quite good. The fist book is okay, and nice on its own. The second book is better and really kicks it off.

So it took them 2 years to release the second book damn.

Well it's only €12.74 for the both of them, I'll buy it.

So I just ordered Zaregoto let's hope it's good.

>> No.6493932

Yes i do, and unfortunately i have to buy most of them since raws are somewhat hard to find for LNs. Or maybe i just don't know where to look, but i don't mind shelling out a little money.

Its pretty good. Unfortunately the first few are not that great and its somewhat unlikely the rest will ever be translated.

I've read the first four Kino's Journey novels, the translation was pretty meh though.

There's a download somewhere of the baka-tsuki translations, they finished a few books, and if they ever stop getting published they'll likely resume translation in some form.

Slayers English 1-7
Slayers 8-14
Toradora! 6-10

Unfortunately, since I generate an infinite amount of work for myself, I still haven't completely read through either of those. Still, when I get the chance, I need to order Toradora 1-5, and the Oreimo light novels.

>> No.6496853

Fate/zero. I hope it'll be fully translated one day. I started Spice and wolf but I've been too busy with my schedule (reading /jp/'s spam all day long) to read it.

How's the quality on fan-translated light novels anyway? I never tried one of them, but it would seem like it takes a bit more than translating manga and VNs. Feel kind of reluctant to read a whole book translated by amateurs.
