Yeah, my bad. I was too quick to say MLA just because of the "Mecha units used to fight invading aliens" setting, I might as well said Evangelion or other old school super robots.

Judging from the illustration and following the "first come first served" rule, the main protagonist will fall in love the white haired chick. I'm a little disappointed she's flat-chested. I'm a little tired of the main protagonist always choosing the flat-chested one when there are more busty girls to choose from. It was one of the few redeeming qualities of IS.

More importantly, anyone know when Fate/Apocrypha is coming out? I haven't had time to scour the depths of .jp, damn finals...

If CanonRap doesn't TL it, I most likely will.

The design for that IS clone looks pretty good (esp dat KOS-MOS clone lol). I think I'll try it out when the raw is out, since I now can read like 100 pages a day.

Err, pardon for bumping. So, there's this new Dengeki Bunko LN that was posted 2 pages back, Last Savior by Yagi Uzuki which just got released yesterday.

Spoiler:


If anyone doesn't mind, could you please translate the synopsis? All I could make out from it is something like "In year 2140, beings known as Aions/Angels are attacking humans and as a result, mankind is on the brink of extinction" and that the protagonist is someone who time-traveled from the year 2015.

Quote:
ときは西暦2140年。史上最悪の敵「天使」による容赦ない猛威にさらされ、人類はその数を極端に減らし、 まさに絶滅の危機に瀕していた……。
 奇怪な事故に遭遇し、2015年の平和な世界から飛ばされてきた名薙綾月は、その過酷な境遇に動揺しなが らも、自らの運命と人類の未来に希望を見出すべく、立ち上がる。その手に輝く剣を携えて──。
My apologize if this is too much trouble.

The year was AD 2140. Under the menace of no mercy posed by "Angels", the worst enemies ever, mankind's population reduced to the extreme and was literally on the brink of extinction...

名薙綾月, who encountered a mysterious incident and was sent flying all the way from the peaceful world of 2015, though agitated because of the cruel circumstance, stands up in order to find out a hope for his own fate and the future of mankind. Carrying a radiant sword in his hand...
As for the name of the protag, googling seems useless to me since I have never seen that name before and there are so little relevant information atm. His name can be either Ayazuki or Azuki. For his surname, I have no idea.

Oh, thank you very much for the trans. I saw the hiragana for the protagonist in Dengeki's website(too bad it's on maintenance now, so I can't check it) and I think his name is Nanagi Ryouga or something.

Once again, thank you.

Guess 1: ...Every series except for SAO is fighting for second place here (might be the first time we have a series defend its title for top ranked LN)...I'm guessing a sweep for it.

Guess 2: I can see Mahouka breaking into top 10 this year.

Guess 3: Index will still be amongst the top 3.

Guess 4: Baka Test will slide out of top 5.

SAO's ego is going to be THIIISSSSSSS much bigger after next week The fans would THIIISSSSSSSS much more obnoxious after that AW fans would be THIIISSSSSSSS much more anal soon after


Hopefully
1) Heavy Object would enter Number 60
2) Horizon would enter Top 20
3) IS and Aria would fall out of range
4) Kokoro Connect would finally break into Top 10
5) Enough is enough Misaka-san
6) INDEX! Hold on to that #2! Bite it down hard and don't let go !

Kamachi obviously aimed for a three-peat with NT3&5

I'm also kind of interested if any of last year's newcomers can hold their ground in the top 10. Also ... can Kagerou Days be considered a Light Novel?

There's no Konorano thread on AS?

Anyway, refresher on 2012 weightages (too lazy to paste other categories)
Spoiler for 2012 top 60 works:

Remember that the ranking is not just based on general reader popularity (HP survey) but also in conjunction with the collaborators and monitor groups (should be no change from 2012 methodology if I'm not mistaken).
There are actually many who are betting that Mahouka will be in top 3, and I can actually see it happening.

Accel world is 21 and more importantly, why the hell did gosick and IS still in top 60! i called this blasphemy!

Joking aside, it seem like SAO gain a lot of attention this year thanks to the anime.Index didn't suprise me much as this is Kamachi that we are talking about but what shock me most is the fact that both gosick and IS actually ranked higher than campione.
