Perhaps Layfon will fuse with Goat-chan, who knows...

even so queen is not called queen from a whim... she is the ruller that can crush all HB together XD if she wants.... and layfon fuseing with goat-chan like said savaris might show a little taste of the power that is comparable to the queen's ^^

there is the age issue too :P (and experiance) layfon is 15years old... and the queen......hmmmm hard to tell since she is useing her kei to make herself younger :P but mostly after 40years :P that life experiance

Volume 1 completed. Sorry, something's happened. oh, and please excuse the formatting, waiting for someone to help out atm.

With the addition of an editor, chapters will be released as scheduled, until we run out of TL chapters anyway.

Thanks alot Blewin!!!

Once again i have to say that the novel really fleshes out the character motivation and explains why the characters behave like they do.. Really whereas in the anime I just got a little excited from the uber layfon pawning, in the novel chapter, it really got me a bit emotional. I can understand Layfon's actions more and really feel a connection. The final scene with the mother was really well done. The writer sure is talented.

Thanks Blewin! The novel really is much better than the anime.

If you need an editor, I'll volunteer. Been cleaning up the translations you put up on Baka-tsuki for awhile.

[Johnny]

Thanks for the finished volume Blewin. It's great to see the differences and similarities from the anime...

[Kokoru Asami]

Thanks alot Blewin for all your hardwork, i love the novel it really is a great piece of work. Why would you run out of chapters to translate?

[willyvereb]

Ok I've just finished reading the translated chapter:

Spoiler for volume 1:

Layfon surely has a "Kei-fetish". At least he looks for "inner beuty".
The Filth Bug fighting were more rational and we saw some Naruki badassery. Felli acts more normally(no shin kicks and she's less colder). It seems the petals have integrated devices so the psychokinesist just only have to move it and mantain connections.

It looks like my perdiction about the chapter was half-right. Anyways thanks for the work, Blewin.

[Eurys]

Spoiler for epilogue:

“Huh! Aaahhhhh! Blood. He’s vomiting blood! Stretcher! Get a stretcher over!” she shouted.

(So noisy……)
Layfon thought, half asleep and half awake.
(Oh yes, I’ve to write a letter back to Leerin.)

Dawww, I love this
Well, I enjoy the novel way more but it's no surprise. Layfon's introspective moments do a lot for his character.
The mature bugs being able to consume pollution but not the larvae is an interesting bit of information.

Anyway, thanks a lot, Blewin! I'm grateful someone will give me the chance to enjoy the novel, especially since the anime is turning to be a massive disappointment imo.

[blewin]

no pro.

@Kokoru: I've finished chapters (rough though) lying around and not yet edited. I'll be unable to translate when my busy time catches up, but the new editor/translator will pick up from where I've finished, so all is good. well... I'm still translating in the meantime.

@Redlar: thanks for the offer! I'll be sure to let you know when the time comes. Just wanna see how the new editor goes.

About Ch 6 and epilogue:

Spoiler for General response:

yeah, Felli doesn't do any kicking in the novel. Does that make her less stereotypical?

As a Leerin fan, I'm happy to see that her letter is the turning point for Layfon's decision to enter the fight.

@Eurys: Funny how he's thinking of writing a reply letter to her like an obligation when everyone else is falling head over heels with his vomiting.

[Kokoru Asami]

@blewin: thanks for clearing that u. I appreciate all your hard work, i really hope to be able to read more of this awesome novel in the near future! (you might want to look at reading Mushi-uta, which is one of my favorite shows, but no one has translated the novels and the second season is frozen, its similar in a way to CSR)

[rodazol]

Blewin! I love you! thanks so much for translating this! i signed up just to thank you lol
The novel is just so much better then the anime... The manga is awesome too ;P

By the way, I dont understand much about cleaning/editing... is that about cleaning the pages so that you can translate them better?
If so all 12 volumes released so far were posted in hongfire
http://www.hongfire.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1780228

They're all clean and shinning, waiting to be translated

Again, thanks for you hard work, Blewin! Don't ever leave us~~~

[satomianzaki]

thanks so much Blewin...

you're truly an angel...just like them, i really wanted to say my appreciation to all you're hard work...may you always be inspired to translate the chapters and be the source of happiness to csr fans like us...

[blewin]

@kokoru: yeah, I've seen a few episodes of Mushi-uta. It just doesn't pull me the same as CSR. Each to his own I guess.

Thanks guys! Hope you'll continue reading even though the anime'll have ended (what a sad day for us CSR fans.....).

[Kokoru Asami]

@blewin: o well to each his own is true, still thanks for your work on CSR,keep it up...well gotta keep looking for someone willing to translate mushi-uta then!

heh, with the current massive trainwreck-ending of the anime(of which noone ever felt any need for, seriously, it's only useful to majorly piss off the fans..), i only care about your translations right now, so, keep it up please

[Tyrone Biggums]

The ending for the anime made me delete all previous episodes.

Now I can concentrate on reading Blewins godly translations.

Oh didn't know it was a wiki? Or hosting site for every light novel beeing translated or what it's called. I honostly thougth it was like a translation group on its own.

Well in that case, you got my thanks for translating it and I do hope you'll keep it up.

It's not that bad? I love the very last moment with Leerin and Layfon reading the letter together..... but the ending does make me wanna read more of the novels. *double effort in translating*

[Kokoru Asami]

Yea so true, the novels are awesome.
@blewin: do you plan on translating "the regios crusade" and "the legend of regios"?

[blewin]

not at the moment. I got my hands full already.
