The legal drinking age in China is 18, it was introduced in 2006.

HnA vol 6 and 7 were published in 2010 though it's likely the author had this planned earlier.

Another sudden curiosity but riko mentioned in vol 3 that she kidnapped a 'few' skilled guys including kinjis bro. Any mentioning of what she did with them?

Maybe, who knows. She did she never did "that" kind of stuff with Kinji's brother.
On that now that I think about has Kinji's brother never acknowledge that they any more them just a senpai and kohai relationship) ?
Riko does has in a while called Kinji her BF (Of course she is/was lying

), so maybe she was lying about him ever being her (Kinji's brother) BF.

You guys know the girl mentioned in vol 12 in the

Spoiler for vol 12 content:

, she's from aria AA right? Just wanted to check since there's no illustration.

Flere821 · 2012-10-15, 01:07

Chinese translations have started on Ch5 of latest volume, and WTF:

Spoiler for Ch5:

Some other stuff so far I'm not particularly impressed with in this voulume about the author's writing:

Spoiler for Ch3-4:

Again, this volume thus far has been a huge disappointment. If this gets any worse I'm almost considering dropping this series...

seems like its just randomness kicking in

Chaos2Frozen · 2012-10-15, 02:16

Reading all of that pisses me off as much as a Kawahara NTR scene with the words "NOT THIS SHIT AGAIN" highlighted in bold for emphasis.

And that is referring to both sets of spoilers.

Somebody please tell me the Japanese readers are just as annoyed by this As I am...

ryan55 · 2012-10-15, 03:22

Just wondering, but in vol 12 it's mentioned that G3 is in Kinji's house right? Any ideas on what happened to his subordinates?

That was in Vol11. His subordinates are a phone call away though, as shown in Vol12 when one of them came down with a military stealth helicoptor when G3 was wounded.

IIRC, the light novels have "decent" sales. I have to wonder what those people see in Hidan no Aria.

Maybe it's the lolis? Fanservice? Whatever else that sells LNs in Japan? (I honestly don't have a clue here, just guessing)

Marcus H. · 2012-10-15, 03:44

If they are only in it for the lolis and fanservice, they should have resorted to the more-illustrated doujins.

I dunno, I just feel like poorly-crafted worlds in a story in light novel format (my standard is based on Toaru Majutsu no Index, if it's not obvious) are much better off as a manga series. It's just showing how amateur (or otherwise poorly planned) some light novel authors are.

And they are mere specks of dust compared to Kawakami, Kamachi and NisioisiN.

It has 30k+ sold per volume's opening day, I would say that's a bit more than 'decent'.

But that's not the same as being 'happy customers', what does the interweb say?

HnA fails horribly compared to plenty of manga....

It's better off as an internet fic-style web novel...

Marcus H. · 2012-10-15, 03:59

I dunno at the side of the "elevens", but 4chan has some really bad impressions of Hidan no Aria, the anime:

• "Even people with bad taste hate this."
• "Hopefully never. Oh my *expletive* god, it was so awful. gg's literal translation at least made it somewhat funny."
• "Considering the bullshit that is the novels? *Expletive* no, let it die. "
"But... traps..."
"But but stupid *expletive* time paradoxes and long dead people still living for bullshit reasons"
• [There's also a correlation between enjoying Hidan no Aria and enjoying Guilty Crown, another hated-with-a-passion series]
• "you can't even troll about this, it was *expletive* awful"

Cosmic Eagle · 2012-10-15, 04:06

The HnA novel thread on 2ch is rather civil since posters there are mainly fans discussing aspects of the setting or characters...

Here's the anti-thread

http://ikura.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/anime2/1310827290/

Mainly anime related but there's some posts lamenting the failed fantasy mess the novel has become...

Marcus H. · 2012-10-15, 04:12

There's so much to translate @_@
All I got is this:

• #58:
"Kill -> Butei cannot kill people
Arrest -> Delicious plea bargaining ♪

What the heck is this bullshit?"

• #62:
"Plea bargaining is so convenient, ain't it? lol"

Icy.Tear · 2012-10-15, 04:12

Not sure why you guys are hating. Do you insult picture books for having simple plot?

Obviously, I don't like the series, but I've given up hating on its lack of well thought out writing long ago.

Flere821 Lurker Join Date: Aug 2010	Chinese translations have started on Ch5 of latest volume, and WTF: Spoiler for Ch5: Kinji confirmed for lolicon. So here he was fighting Wukong (battle personality), and he asked her to put on some panties since he gets a good look at 'that place' every time she kicks him. Wukong says she's in a pubescent body (roughly 10 years old or younger) and Kinji replies he doesn't mind. His thoughts was more glad Wukong's a legal jailbait, around 2,000 years old. That in particular makes me think he's using the excuse of buying time as a excuse to flirt... especially if he just openly declared he loves her: Kinji: "... from the day a girl is born she's a beautiful flower in the world. It's in man's nature to love a flower. That's what my older brother... or rather, older sister... rather, older brother, have told me! I love you!" (Flere821: retch) Yeah, I'm looking forward to when Wukong figures out he's not entirely serious about that declaration of love and proceeds to beat him up mercilessly. She seems to have completely fallen for Kinji's HSS mode though, as for once someone sees her as a attractive person in 2,000 years. Wonder how this story would have changed if he was head-hunted into the Butei branch that specializes in seduction... Some other stuff so far I'm not particularly impressed with in this voulume about the author's writing: Spoiler for Ch3-4: -Kinji finally had enough, told Aria to frak off when she seems to do nothing but berate him for getting lost, and does not go try and apologize after he found out she spend the night looking for him. Instead he continues to storm out, and didn't mind Riko and Shirayuki said they'll go with him instead of staying with Aria. -Fight scene: So, Kinji was surrounded by 100 civilian girls Cao Cao used (against the rules about not involving unrelated people) and held down by them, losing his wallet, guns etc. Then all of a sudden he escapes somehow with no explanation. WTF? Again, this volume thus far has been a huge disappointment. If this gets any worse I'm almost considering dropping this series...
