Shika no Ou – Volume 1 – Prologue: Eggs of the

Heyas folks,

originally I had already planned to add another novel to my lineup towards the end of this year, but seeing as Risou no Himo Seikatsu has been licensed yesterday, ApoWo and I decided to insert this novel.

It is a wonderful fantasy novel by Nahoko Uehashi, the writer of the Moribito and Beast Player Erin series. It was slated to have an anime in 2020, but was delayed towards 2021. It was printed in 2 books in 2014, and then reprinted in four volumes in 2017.  In other words, it’s not overly long.

Seeing as it’s such a wonderful work, I expect it to be picked up by an English publisher at some point (maybe). Until it happens, I’d like people to enjoy this work, as far as my meager abilities allow it. 🙂

 

Please enjoy the prologue, edited by ApoWo~

Announcement: Risou no Himo Seikatsu Licensed

Heyas folks,

just today JNC announced that they licensed the Light Novel of Risou no Himo Seikatsu (Ideal Sponger Life). Since they have released the first parts of the LN alongside their announcement, they didn’t give me much time to react. But, as is good practice for any fan translator, I will stop the translation of Risou no Himo Seikatsu as of today.

Accordingly I have disabled all pages linking to the chapters I have translated, effectively removing them from my blog.

Let me use this opportunity to thank ApoWo for editing this series for me! Also, I kindly thank all of you, the readers, for supporting this series by reading and commenting it as you’ve done so far. It has been a fairly short ride, but a helluva pleasant one!

Of course, this doesn’t mean that I will leave the Thursday slot open! I have a few candidates to choose from, so expect to see a new novel in this slot very soon (maybe as soon as next Thursday).

Stay tuned!

 

Cheers,

Shasu
