Update: Release Schedule

3

Heyas folks,

some of the older followers of my blog might wonder what my schedule plans are now that Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de is back in business. Thus I thought I will give you a short run-down on my future schedule.

Hachinan tte, sore wa nai deshou! – A regular mainstay in its Sunday slot. It will be released in parts. If you want to read ahead, check my Patreon.

The Spearmaster and the Black Cat – A new mainstay in the Friday slot. Most of the times I will release entire chapters but as a few chapters get as long as lower-end Hachinan chapters, those will be split in parts. For reading ahead, you have to consult my Patreon.

Summoned Slaughterer – Originally a mainstay but with a dwindling reader-base it has been delegated into a shared Saturday slot. Unfortunately the number of readers for this series has dropped sharply over time. Originally I planned to translate the second season as well, but that has been called off now as I don’t intend to translate novels if hardly anyone wants to read them. This series will finish at season 1 which has still 24 chapters left.

Hakai no Miko – My personal favourite. It will stay on an irregular release schedule for now. As the chapters are mostly short I can handle them after coming home from work during the week. As keeping it that way worked in the series’ favour, I will keep it like that for now. Of course that means that there might be some weeks with no releases and others with 1-3 releases.

Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de – Until the end of Summoned Slaughterer it will stay on a irregular release schedule. Though I will try to release a chapter at least once every two weeks. Might be more depending on my mood. Once Summoned Slaughterer ends, it will get the weekly Saturday slot.

Kakei Senki wo Kakageyo! – Now this one’s a difficult case, in various meanings. The material is definitely difficult. The author uses a highly prosaic and archaic manner of writing. This makes the translation slow, even if the chapters are short. Adding to that, hardly anyone reads the novel, sadly. So this one will be on a very irregular release schedule ranging from once every 1-3 months.

 

I think that should clear up some questions. I’m still looking for an active editor who speaks native English for Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de. So hit me up, if you are interested in helping out. You can easily find me on our Discord server. 🙂

 

Greetings,

Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de – Chapter 83: It seems to be the Hero and the Goddess

55

Heyas everyone,

it seems like J Novel Club officially announced today that they are suspending further releases of Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de. Well, I guess that’s a reasonable step for a company that depends on its reputation in the online community. I feel a bit sorry for them as they managed to acquire the license for a novel that might have become a big hit just to end up in front of a pile of shards.

Personally I never cared about the authors of the books I read or translate which is probably also  why I never read an autobiography in my entire life. If a story is good, I read it. And I think Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de is a good story. As far as I have seen it doesn’t propagate any problematic racial or ethical statements and as such I will translate it for those who want to enjoy a good story just like me. Of course, if I see that no one wants to read it, I will simply drop it again. So it’s up to you whether this story gets translated or not. ^^

For those who have a problem reading a story because of what its author did in the past, simply don’t read it and don’t bother coming here to discuss it cause your comments will be deleted and/or you will get banned. There are plenty other forums and such where you can vent your frustration for all I care.

I have re-enabled the chapters starting with volume 4 of the novel. If you want to read the chapters before that, you can purchase them over at J Novel Club.

The schedule will be irregular like Hakai no Miko (in other words, you get a chapter when I got time outside the regular releases) for now until Summoned Slaughterer ends.

Ah, and here’s the link…

P.S.: I’m looking for a dedicated editor for this series now that it’s back again. Requirements are: native English as well as will and dedication to invest into a long-term project (still more than 300 chapters left after all). Mail me at [email protected] or find me on our Discord server, if interested.

Greetings,

Shasu

 

News: Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de – Anime in 2018

11

And here I was browsing the twitter feed of Ido Masa, the author of Summoned Slaughterer, and suddenly stumbled upon those news. Well both authors publish under the same label, HJ novels, so I guess it’s only natural that the author of SS would forward an official announcement of HJ Novels.

 

Probably some of you already know, but Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de gets an Anime starting in October this year, see here.

At least it now makes sense why J-Novel Club has picked up that series, which had already around 15 volumes at the time they announced their licensing, and is pushing the release rate of the novel volumes (currently they are half through volume 3 after less than a half year since starting).

I suppose it helps to have connections to the industry. 😉

 

Cheers,

Shasu

Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de – Chapter 82: It seems to be the time of departure

2

All good things come to an end…

 

This is the final chapter to be released by Infinite Novel Translations of this novel. As mentioned in a prior announcement post here, this novel was licensed by J-Novel Club.

This novel had grown on me and I was planning great things for it through Patreon this year, but was thwarted by its licensing.

As I wish to start releasing “The Spearmaster and the Black Cat” coming Saturday, I’m going to release this last chapter slightly ahead of time.

As macabre it may sound, it is a fitting chapter for being the last one. Oh well, enjoy it.

Update: Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de licensed by J-Novel Club

, 56

Heyas folks,

today I was contacted by J-Novel Club that they licensed Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de.

Here a little extract:

You may have noticed on the news, but we have now licensed Nidome no Jinsei from Hobby Japan, and have begun releasing the series officially.

As is our usual procedure, I’m emailing you to request that you remove your translations of the portion of the web novel that correspond to volume 1 from your website, and when we begin to translate volume 2, please remove those chapters as well etc…

I took some time to consider the options and also discussed it with the team and we decided to stop the translation at this point in time.

Some may ask “Why?” as it clearly states above that the content that isn’t released by J-Novel doesn’t have to be removed. But as translator I don’t feel like starting to play a game of cat and mouse. And unless I up my release speed, which I naturally don’t intend to do as that would affect my other projects, J-Novel would catch up in about 2 years or less with my progress (going by their release speed of other series’). By that time most of the series would be an empty husk with most of the content being removed from this blog. So yea, no point in that as I’m usually going for the long run and not short term.

I have two chapters in stock of which one will be released in a while and the other one regularly in two weeks time.

I’m sorry towards all those who supported this series being translated on this blog up until now, but just like with Yomigaeri no Maou and Black Summoner, I see no point in trying to struggle against an official licensing and thus chose to make a clear cut at this place.

On the bright side, it also offers you the chance to legally support the author by buying the English books online.

According to their demand, volume 1 has been removed from this blog. The rest will follow in a few weeks time, so if you want to salvage anything, do it before you have to later search through the dozens of aggregator sites and e-pub blogs.

So what will happen next? A new series will come, naturally. I’m not into changing release speeds of currently running projects or hashing up old projects that are dormant due to me lacking motivation/reason to do them. I need my dose of alternating stories and styles after all.

One potential candidate will be posted later today, so look forward to that. 🙂

 

Many greetings,

Shasu

Heyas folks,

here comes a regular release of Nidoume no Jinsei wo Isekai de.

We have now entered volume 5 of the Light Novel and thus I updated the Cover in the Table of Contents.

Below you will find one illustration from volume 4 I missed placing because I’m not 100% sure where it actually fits.

Anyway, have fun~
