A bit surprised that there isn't a LN thread for this already. Well here we have it!
I'm currently only up to Vol.6 (still reading) myself, and I must say things are getting really interesting.

In other news, BakaTsuki has already started translating Vol.1.


=====================

-Edit, July 2014-

- Updated LN cover illustrations up to Vol.11

Wow that's nice...

Haha I didn't know there wasn't a thread for this series =_=;

Interesting, it would be a great read.

Hmmmm...i am impressed that the light novel can be expanded to volume 8. So, is the story, comedy remain strong after volume 2?

It does, the Light Novel is on the teaser page. Two chapters are being translated right now, some changes is present in the anime, but still a great read. They have all the illustrations out on all volumes. Volume 3 is looking like my favorite to read.

Feel like something is missing, usually moments when you see two main characters of the opposite gender sleeping in the same bed and there seems to be a large empty space then there should be a baby. Should have edge them closer together.

of course this hinting something :naughty:

thought we wont see it in anime

Repeating request.

So who are the additional characters presented in the volume covers aside from maou and the rest that already made an apperance in the anime?

Most likely not the answer to your question, though their roles and relationship most likely got closer.

aaaaw kinda like a happy family... but who's the child?
their future child sent from the future? :) like in sailor moon...

Well her hair is purple, that should be enough of a hint.

I don't really consider (Alice?) to count because.. well, there wasn't really any kind of 'intent' behind her. Er, if you know what I mean. /cough

All the spoilers from baka-tsuki forums:

Can't believe no one fell for my joke........I was expecting everyone saying Miki-T.

I can't believe I didn't see that!

Oh yeah,

Her name is spelt weird tho. Not how 'Alice' normally is. Well, they were probably going for something close enough.

Nothing specific? Cmon guys :c

Her name in English, according to one of the novel illustrations, is Alas=Ramus
